Revival in South Africa Parliament

God so filled Von Vuuren’s life with His glory that one morning God said to him, “Go to Pretoria.”

I am going to send you to the different members of Parliament.” At executive headquarters he was admitted to the presence of Premier Louis Both. Both told me about it afterwards. Premier Both said, “Lake, I had known Von Vuuren from the time he was a boy. I had known him as a reckless, rollicking fellow. But that man came into my office and stood ten feet from my desk. I looked up and before he began to speak, I began to shake in my chair. I knelt down. I had to stick my head under the desk and cry to God. Why, he looked and talked like God. He had the majesty of God. He was superhumanly wonderful.”

Von Vuuren then went to the office of the Secretary of State; then to the Secretary of the Treasury. Almost the same thing took place in each instance. For 18 days God kept him going from this one to that one—lawyers, judges, and officials in the land—until every high official in the land knew there was a God, a Christ and Saviour, and a baptism of the Holy Ghost, all because Dan Von Vuuren had really hungered after God. “Blessed are they which do hunger.”

For several years before I left Africa, he went up and down the land like a burning fire. Everywhere he went sinners were saved, sick were healed, men and women were baptized in the Holy Ghost, until he set the outlying districts on fire with the power of God.
