Introducing Maria Woodworth-Etter 3/7 Monday Meditation

I have concluded about a year and a half of posting Smith Wigglesworth quotes from the book of his complete sermons. Continuing my practice of quoting "Pentecostal pioneers" who are seldom read nowadays, I begin a new series today with The Holy Spirit, by MARIA WOODWORTH-ETTER (1844-1924). Maria (pronounced ma-RIGH-uh) grew up as a farm girl in east central Ohio. She became a famous healing evangelist throughout the Midwest and West Coast who held tent revivals. This was in a day when it was rare for women to preach, and women who did faced serious persecution. Her interesting and sometimes heartbreaking story can be read at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Woodworth-Etter "In the last days, some people will be living very near to God, but the devil will have his workers, too, who will attribute signs and wonders to any power except the power of Christ. The Lamb of God, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, has never lost His power and never will lose His power. I would hate to say by my actions that I thought the devil had more power than God." -- Maria Woodworth-Etter
