people, time to move out." First of all the Lord will always speak in advance.
As you read the Word of God, just like in the Old Testament, you read it in
New that the Lord will always warn His people in advance. He will tell them
of the things to come, because Christ promised...

Around 1931, there was a call of God, "My people, get ready to move out."
There were only a few hundred people who were praying and seeking the
Lord. "Lord, when do you want us to lead out." "Lord where do you want us to
go?" They were praying and fasting because when the Lord warns you there
is time to seek the Lord's face. If He warns you of future things to come, of any
danger, then that's the time to really fast and pray and seek the will of the Lord
for His further instruction.

So they were praying and the Lord said, "My children now this is the next city
where you need to go." Being farmers in Russia with horse and buggies, there
were no cars or trucks at that time. Russia, even now, is still very backward in
way of machinery on the farms.

Anyhow, at that time it was just horse and buggies and there was one central
railroad through Russia. The Lord spoke to these farmers who had never
traveled more than a hundred kilometers in their lifetime, only to next village,
on horse and buggy.

To these farmers the Lord said that He will move them out into another
country. That was in central Ukraine, in the area of Kiev, and a little bit south.
The Lord told some groups from that area, who were praying and fasting, to
move to the next city south. When they came to that city, the Lord told them
to move on to another city. He would give the name of the city. He was moving
them from city to city, telling them names and addresses like in the days of
old. We read that in Old Testament, and we read that in New.

How did the Lord direct those three men to look for Peter? How did they know
where to go? They were told the location. They were told the name of a person,
where to look for him, and they came right to that house. How did they know?
Only by God's direct intervention and by God's direct revelation.

That's the kind of God we believe and that's the kind of God that was working
in Russia and in China and He's still alive and well in Canada and America. If
anybody is willing to believe the Word of God and have that Living faith
because Christ said, "Have faith in God" (Mark 11:22). The Russian Bible says
