The Whole
Earth Will Be Lightened
And after these things I
saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was
lightened with his glory. Rev. 18:1
The end of all things is at hand. God is
moving upon every mind that is open to receive the impressions of His Holy
Spirit. He is sending our messengers that they may give the warning in every
locality. God is testing the devotion of His churches and their willingness to
render obedience to the Spirit's guidance. Knowledge is to be increased. The
messengers of Heaven are to be seen running to and fro, seeking in every
possible way to warn the people of the coming judgments and presenting the glad
tidings of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. The standard of
righteousness is to be exalted. The Spirit of God is moving upon men's hearts,
and those who respond to its influence will become lights in the world.
Everywhere they are seen going forth to communicate to others the light they
have received as they did after the descent of the Holy Spirit on the day of
Pentecost. And as they let their light shine, they receive more and more of the
Spirit's power. The earth is lighted with the glory of God.
This message will close with power and
strength far exceeding the midnight cry. Servants of God, endowed with power
from on high, with their faces lighted up, and shining with holy consecration,
went forth to proclaim the message from heaven.
Many were praising God. The sick were
healed, and other miracles were wrought. A spirit of intercession was seen, even
as was manifested before the great Day of Pentecost. Hundreds and thousands
were seen visiting families and opening before them the Word of God. Hearts
were convicted by the power of the Holy Spirit, and a spirit of genuine
conversion was manifest. On every side doors were thrown open to the
proclamation of the truth. The world seemed to be lightened with the heavenly
influence.
