Revival After 2000 and the Towers' Fall
"The Remarkable
Experience of Euley Hudson"
by Dr. James Brooks
newtonjr@charter.net
I first met Euley about 20 years ago. He was an independent evangelist. Some
years before, while working as a car salesman, he felt God calling him to go
around the
world preaching the gospel. No church, denomination, or mission board that he
approached would back him, so he determined to go forth on his own. He told God
that though man would not back him, he was going to obey God and let God
provide. God did indeed provide him with the means to go around the world and he
saw many miracles as he went. After that he began making regular trips to
Communist China and to Israel, preaching on the streets and wherever he could.
After some years of this, Euley was returning home from a trip to Israel. He had
left Israel, gone to Europe, and was flying home to the States. He told me that
for some reason he felt discouraged and a bit depressed. As he sat in his seat
on the plane, the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and God told him several
things. The Lord told him that in not too many years there would be a great
revival. He told Euley that this revival would be noteworthy for the huge number
of people who would be saved without anyone even mentioning repentance or
salvation to them. God told him that people would be walking down the street
when suddenly conviction would come upon them and they would repent and would
turn to the Lord. God told him that people would without warning come under
conviction by the presence of the Lord and would often collapse on the ground
where they were. (This was also common during the Great Revival of 1800 in the
states of Tennessee and Kentucky, as well as in the Ulster Revival of 1859 -
plus many others.)
God told Euley that as a sign that this was true, he would see people for a time
physically collapse when he came near them, coming under conviction and
repenting without him or anyone witnessing to them. He said that about the time
the Lord told him that, an elderly Dutch lady who was seated near him on the
plane burst into uncontrollable tears. She did not speak English, but another
lady translated that the elderly woman suddenly felt that she was not pleasing
to God. Euley talked to her and prayed for her with the other
lady translating. She gradually began sobbing and became very happy. Then others
on the plane began to cry and he stood and talked to all on the plane about the
Lord. Even more people began to cry then.
After the plane landed at Kennedy Airport, Euley made his way inside. As he
walked across the terminal, a man pushing a cart full of luggage stopped as he
approached Euley and began crying tears and saying that he was a sinner who
needed to repent. Several other people, as Euley came near them, also began to
cry. Outside on the street, several people fell weeping against the side of
buildings as he passed them.
As Euley was telling me this, a couple sitting with us who were close friends of
mine, interrupted Euley to tell me what had happened with them only two days
before. They had taken Euley to lunch and as he was telling them this same
story, their waitress, as she walked towards their table, suddenly began to cry
and sob. She turned and went into the ladies' room. My friend's wife went in
after her, and found her sobbing against the wall. The waitress said that she
was a Christian, but that she had not had time for God for several years. She
said that was all going to change, as she intended to start back to church and
to allow God to rule her life like He wanted to. This was what Euley had been
told would one day be a common thing, when the great coming revival arrives.
My grandmother said of the coming revival that it would be the greatest move of
God that the world had ever seen. She said it would begin sometime after
the year 2000. She said that both judgment and revival would come upon
America and the world. When I asked her when these things would begin, her reply
was that she did not know the time, only that it would be sometime after the
year 2000. She did tell me that a sign that judgment was beginning would be
when a large building (two buildings that were somehow connected as one) in New York City was destroyed by people from a Muslim
country. She said those people would hate America and Americans, though she
did not know why they would. Grandmother said they would completely destroy a
building in New York City. She said they would not do it with a bomb, though it
would appear to have been bombed. Grandmother said everyone in America would
know about it the hour it happened. Before the day was over, she said the whole
world would have heard about it. It was in 1958 or 1959 that she told me this. She
said this would be a sign that judgment had begun.
(David’s note: Revival coming after the towers fall
appears to agree with scriptures. {Isa.30:25} And there shall be upon
every lofty mountain, and upon every high hill, brooks [and] streams of waters,
in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall. {26}
Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light
of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that
Jehovah bindeth up the hurt of his people, and healeth the stroke of their
wound. I also think some more towers might fall in another
9/11-style attack, only worse, before this revival comes.)
I asked her what most Americans would think as they saw judgment beginning. Her
reply was that most Americans would close their eyes and blindly go on as if
nothing was wrong, as if nothing had changed. I said, "But of course the
Christians will see that something is wrong because such a tragedy happened in
this country." Her reply was that on the contrary, most Christians would close
their eyes and be as blind as the rest of the population. A few, she said, would
be following God and would see what was coming. Most Christians in America, she
said, did not follow God and so would not see or heed the warnings He would
give. They would not know what was coming because they listened to man and not
to God.

I am the
Dr. James Brooks who wrote the article (above) about Euley Hudson which you
are using on your website. When I was nine, my grandmother told me of the
great coming revival. She is the one who also told me of the destruction of
“a skyscraper in New York City, by Muslims.” She also said they would be
from a country with a Mid-Eastern culture, though it would not be in the
Mid-East.
Additionally, she told me a number of things about the coming revival. I am
not familiar with your website or your ministry. I happened across it purely
because of God. I thought I would tell you that two days ago, in the
morning, God gave me an assurance that the revival that was prophesied over
200 years ago (see article below), and which my grandmother told me of, is imminent. It is only
days from beginning. You may put that on your website if you wish. It is
true. We can expect the greatest revival to ever hit America to begin within
days.
Revival, Apostasy
and Persecution
Dr. James Brooks - 7/08/07
The coming
revival was prophesied over 200 years ago. This was during a revival known
as the Great Revival. This revival came as the result of intensive prayer
and intercession. People in North Carolina began praying for revival in the
1780s. I do not have my notes on that revival before me, or I could tell you
the exact year in which prayer for the revival began. There was a young
minister named James Magready. He taught that God desires revival more than
we do, and that if enough committed people would fast and pray for revival,
God would send one.
James
Magready got several hundred people to pledge to fast and pray for revival.
This pledge was known as the “Carolina Covenant.” The idea of making a
covenant with God and each other came from Scotland, for these people were
largely Scots-Irish. I do not know the particulars of that covenant, only
that it was a pledge to pray for revival until revival came or they died.
Magready suggested that since God can send revival anywhere, they should ask
Him to begin this revival in what was at that time widely considered the
worst place in the country. That was Logan County, Kentucky. Logan County
was at that time on the frontier, and many men had moved there to escape the law. Magready himself moved there in the 1790s, where he pastored three small
churches.
In the year
1800, suddenly and without warning, revival broke out in Logan County. It
began in one of Magready’s little churches, Red River Meeting House, which
had a congregation of 35. The week after the revival began, it was decided
to have a three day service there. Over 500 men, women and children
attended. From here the revival spread like wildfire.
A church in
nearby Tennessee with a congregation of 60 experienced revival and had over
5000 people attend their services. All services had to be held out of doors,
as no church building could hold the huge crowds that attended. These
outdoor revival meetings began to be called camp meetings. The largest was
at Cane Ridge, in upstate Kentucky, in 1802. Estimates of the number
attending the service at Cane Ridge ran as high as 20,000.
By 1803,
however, the revival was on the wane. Concerned Christians living along Red
River, some of whom had previously prayed for the Great Revival, began to
pray together for a renewal of the revival. After a time, a number of them
said God had given them “an assurance” that there would be another revival
similar to this one, but greater. They said this revival would come far in
the future, near the end of the age. This is the revival that I was told
would come in the early years of the 21st century.
I was told
in 1959 that so many people would be saved that it would seem as if “all the
world was coming home to God.” The revival will come in two waves. The
false church will struggle to capture those who are saved in this revival,
and in time it will succeed in ensnaring most, and in ending the revival.
The second wave of the revival will come several years after the first. It
will sweep everything before it, and will not be stopped. The success of
this revival, and the failure of the false church to stop it, will result in
intense persecution.
(Note from David: Since history always repeats [Eccl. 1:9; 3:15], the
first wave revival will come through the John the Baptist (Elijah)
corporate ministry and then the Man-child corporate ministry coming to the
end of the first 3˝ years of the tribulation and the mark. Except for the
man-child this will be a former rain anointing. According to Jn.6:66 many
will return to apostasy. The second wave will be when the latter rain is
poured out on the disciples in a greater book of Acts experience for the
second 3˝
years. Listen to
Stages of the Coming Revival.)
Do not
think that anyone will be persecuted for saying they are a Christian.
Remember that Jesus Himself said that many would say to Him, “Lord, Lord,”
to whom He would reply that He never knew them. People will not be
persecuted for claiming to be Christians. Those who will be persecuted will
be those who refuse to compromise their walk with God and become part of the
world system. From my reading and study, I have never found where anyone was
persecuted for saying they were Christians or followers of Christ. They were
only persecuted if they refused to be a part of the world system. In the
days of Rome, there were times when everyone was ordered to spend the
equivalent of a few pennies and burn a stick of incense before a statue of
the emperor. This was to honor the emperor as a god. Many Christians avoided
persecution by burning the incense, or by allowing the pagan priests to burn
it in their name. It was only those who did not burn the incense who were
persecuted. The problem was that these Christians acknowledged only Jesus as
Lord. The emperor wanted them to acknowledge both him and Jesus as Lord.
Hitler
personally disliked Christianity. However, his favorite General was in
church every time the doors were open. This did not bother Hitler, as
General Jodel was a devout Nazi. Churches under the Nazis were open and
allowed much freedom, provided they incorporated certain pro-Nazi remarks
and practices into their services.
In
Communist Russia it was perfectly legal to go to church. You were required
to go to a state-approved church and you had to agree not to try to convert
anyone under 18. There were several other such government laws governing
Christians. If you followed those laws you would not be persecuted.
So will it
be in the not-too-distant future. Those who go along with the world system
in this country will not be bothered. It is those who refuse to abide by or
who challenge certain popular beliefs who will be persecuted. Those who
compromise will please the world system and its ruler, but they will
continue to call Jesus ”Lord” and to proclaim themselves his devout
followers.

Coming Elijah /
Man-child Ministry
John England 7/08/07
Here is a prophetic experience from a humble servant of the Lord
that is so timely. It's time to wake up and focus on God. We all
need to soften our hearts through humility and repentance, renew our
minds by yielding to the Holy Spirit as He ministers the Word in our
hearts and perfect holiness in the fear of the Lord. We must do
this to prepare the way of the Lord, to make His paths straight.
As promised, John the Baptist
began ministering in the spirit of Elijah shortly before the Lord
began his ministry...
Matthew 3:1-3 In those days came
John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, (2) And
saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. (3) For
this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The
voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the
Lord, make his paths straight.
Isaiah 40:3-4 The voice of
him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the
LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. (4)
Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill
shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and
the rough places plain:
Jesus made it clear that
John was the first fulfillment of this prophecy...
Matthew 11:9-15 But what went ye
out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a
prophet. (10) For this is he, of whom it is written,
Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy
way before thee. (11) Verily I say unto you, Among them that are
born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist:
notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater
than he. (12) And from the days of John the Baptist until now the
kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by
force. (13) For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
(14) And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was
for to come. (15) He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
But He also said that there will
be another fulfillment in the future...
Matthew 17:10-11 And
his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias
must first come? (11) And Jesus answered and said unto them,
Elias truly shall first come, and restore all
things.
The corporate John the Baptist or Elijah ministry is very close...
In Matthew 11 above, Jesus quoted
Malachi 3:1, which also tells us that the Lord whom we seek will
suddenly come to His temple...
Malachi 3:1 Behold, I will send my
messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and
the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the
messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall
come, saith the LORD of hosts.
Jesus announced His ministry in
the synagogue in Nazareth by quoting Isaiah 61:1-2a...
Luke 4:17-21 ASV And there was
delivered unto him the book of the prophet Isaiah. And he opened the
book, and found the place where it was written, (18) The Spirit of
the Lord is upon me, Because he anointed me to preach good tidings
to the poor: He hath sent me to proclaim release to the captives,
And recovering of sight to the blind, To set at liberty them that
are bruised, (19) To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord. (20)
And he closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant, and sat
down: and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.
(21) And he began to say unto them, To-day hath this scripture been
fulfilled in your ears.
Interestingly, He ended His quote
in the middle of verse 2. When He returns to us this time,
manifested in the man-child ministry (Hos.6:1-3; Rev.12), He will
complete the prophecy...
Isaiah 61:1-2b The Spirit of the
Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to
preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening
of the prison to them that are bound; (2) To proclaim the
acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God;
His mission this time is to
proclaim both revival to His people and judgment upon the world. To
be saved from the judgment of a holy God, we must be sanctified,
cleansed, made holy. Let us look again at Malachi 3, starting with
verse 2...
Malachi 3:2-3 But who may abide
the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he
is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: (3) And he
shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall
purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that
they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.
We know that we are to practice
peace and holiness so that we will be able to see Him...
Hebrews 12:14 Follow peace with
all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the
Lord:
But we have great comfort and hope
concerning the revival that the Lord is bringing to us, to make us
ready to stand before Him. Let us go back to Isaiah 61, verse 2,
and continue....
Isaiah 61:2c-11 ... to comfort all
that mourn; (3) To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give
unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment
of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called
trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be
glorified. (4) And they shall build the old wastes, they shall
raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste
cities, the desolations of many generations. (5) And strangers shall
stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be
your plowmen and your vinedressers. (6) But ye shall be named the
Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our
God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory
shall ye boast yourselves. (7) For your shame ye shall have
double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their
portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double:
everlasting joy shall be unto them. (8) For I the LORD love
judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their
work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
(9) And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their
offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge
them, that they are the seed which the
LORD hath blessed. (10) I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my
soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the
garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of
righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with
ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself
with her jewels. (11) For as the earth bringeth forth her bud,
and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring
forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to
spring forth before all the nations.
So rejoice and prepare your hearts, saints. His messengers will
come first, preaching repentance and baptism for remission of our
sins, dying to sinful, selfish, worldly ways and arising to
holiness, righteousness and the fear of the Lord. Then the Lord
will come to reveal His glory in us to the world!
Isaiah 40:5 And the glory of the LORD
shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see
it
together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
This hasn't happened fully up
until now. The Lord intends to reveal His glory to all flesh -- to
reveal Himself in us in these last days!
Colossians 1:26-28 Even
the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations,
but now is made manifest to his saints: (27) To whom God would make
known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among
the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
(28) Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in
all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
Romans 8:18-19 ALT For I consider
that the sufferings of the present time [are] not worthy
[to be compared] with the glory about to be revealed
in us. (19) For the earnest expectation of the creation
eagerly awaits the revelation of the sons [and daughters] of
God.
We are privileged to be in this
last generation, in which God will bring the ultimate fulfillment of
His plan. And He intends to
use us to accomplish this!
Hebrews 11:39-40 And these all,
having obtained a good report through faith, received not the
promise: (40) God having provided some better thing for
us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
Prepare yourselves and be waiting expectantly.
