Canada Fire
Canada Fire
"See what kind of love the Father has given to us." 1 John 3:1
On this day, October 13, in the year of our Lord 1971, God wonderfully manifested His presence in Saskatchewan, Canada. Pastor Bill McLeod invited evangelists Ralph and Lou Sutera to speak at his church. An amazing spirit of conviction gripped the people that day, and many confessed sin publicly. Their numbers grew each night until they filled the capital Civic Auditorium, seating two thousand people. People did not want to leave. They prayed together, humbled themselves, confessed sin, and were miraculously converted. Almost half those who met Christ were young people. Sherwood Wirt, editor of Billy Graham’s Decision magazine, visited the phenomenal revival and said, “We’re walking knee deep in love up here.”
You can walk knee deep in God’s love today as you pray now.
Loving Father, flood my community with your manifest presence today, that I might walk knee deep in love.
YEAR ON FIRE
