days, saith God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall
prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: and on My
servants and on My handmaidens I will pour out in those days of My Spirit; and they shall prophesy." Acts
