Come Again Holy Spirit!


One of the most consistent ways the Lord speaks to me is through the avenue of dreams.
Many of my writing and speaking assignments are given to me in such a manner. Prayer
assignments over the years have almost always come in the forms of visitations and
visions. This is true especially if it is a strategic assignment.

While ministering in Brazil in this past July, I was
seeking the Lord for His mind and thoughts concerning
future movements of the Holy Spirit. I went to sleep in
my hotel room in Belo Horizonte and woke up out of a
“stunner of a dream”. The manifested presence of God
was riveting on my body as an after affect of this
dream encounter. It shook me.

I have yet to tell the full dream experience publicly, but
I have been directed to present portions of it to you now.
Perhaps I will be released at a later date and in the proper setting to actually proclaim the
message.  For now, I am going to steer away from my craft of interpreting and just bring
you the raw message.

I SAW SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AS A WOMB FOR THE BODY OF CHIRST!

Like an eagle in flight, I was hovering over the globe in search of a place to land. Suddenly
the entire west coast of the United States came before me. I was zoomed in upon the state
of California and with the eye of an eagle I saw glimpses of redemptive purposes and plans.
I then turned in flight over portions of southern California and I saw something that seemed
unusual. Southern California was a womb for the body of Christ. She had been used to
conceive the Word and the Spirit over the last one hundred years of the Church and to
bring forth different movements of God.

My “knower” was on high alert as I flew over Los Angeles and Orange County that this
womb had already received another word - implanted at least a year earlier - and that
another long-term, almost overdue, birth was imminent. I then soared over Pasadena and
the next thing I knew, the eagle suddenly flew into the historic Mott Auditorium on the
hallowed grounds of William Carey University.

I SAW JOHN WIMBER STANDING ON THE PLATFORM!

The Mott Auditorium was packed with worshipping believers with standing room only.
The place was electric with the presence of God. Rabid worship was happening with
occasional authoritative declarations by various leaders. I noticed a few desperate pastors I
know crying out with anguish for God to visit them once again. Then things suddenly
shifted.

All of a sudden, the late John Wimber, former leader of the Vineyard Movement and voice
for the Third Wave, was firmly standing on the newly purple-carpeted platform. The
cultural atmosphere was now pregnant with a realm of the glory and the thick majesty of
God. Then I heard and felt the voice of John Wimber echo an invitation that rattled the
entire place. He simply declared, “COME AGAIN HOLY SPIRIT!”

People starting crashing to the floor en masse under the impact of
the power and authority that resonated in those simple words.
Once again another sound wave was released, “COME AGAIN
HOLY SPIRIT.” It was not gentle Jesus showing up or the
comforting dove of God manifesting. It was not just another
renewal or revival meeting - though it seemed to include all of
those qualities. It was the violent invasion of heaven entering a
time and space world. It was a church quake.

I felt the reverberation coming off the sound waves of the voice
of the invitation. It shook the very building, the grounds and all
those present. The fear of the Lord fell and an earthquake of a
5.7 magnitude resulted. The quake resulted in an anointing
resting on Psalm 57. “Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me. For my soul takes 
refuge in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge until destruction passes
by. I will cry to God Most High, to God who accomplishes all things for me. He will send 
from heaven and save me.” People screamed in terror as the entire grounds and buildings
were rattled by the sound of God’s voice being heard and felt once again. Signs and
wonders broke out but it appeared as an after effect, not the primary goal. Then a third time
I heard the pronouncement from John Wimber, “COME AGAIN HOLY SPIRIT!” People
crashed onto the floor in droves.

As I pen this, I just now realized some things I had forgotten. I was reminded of them as
they just flashed suddenly within me as I compose this. I also saw the late Jill Austin, one of
the fieriest prophetesses of the last decade, gazing in upon what was happening and smiling.
I heard her laugh echo over the occurrence as to say, “I told you He was coming!” I saw a
great cloud of witnesses including Aimee Simple McPherson and others who were gathering
around to peer in upon this strange outbreak. The convergence of old anointings - still
seemingly resident upon California - were now colliding.

SUDDENLY I WAS AWAKENED!

My senses were heightened. It was July and I was ministering in Brazil – a land pregnant
with revival - but suddenly it appeared to be another season. It was Fall - right at the time of
the Jewish New Year of Rosh Hashanah. Then pages of a book flipped quickly from one
chapter of time to another and suddenly it was 40 days and nights later. I smelled smoke in
Mott Auditorium as if the place had been filled with the burning fiery sacrifices of violent
praise and worship. I smelled burnt flesh. I smelled aromas of life and death simultaneously
at work.

Short messages from different anointed vessels were a part of this new sound wave but
again it was not the main thing. Miracles happened - they just suddenly occurred. But again,
this was not the aim. It was not why the people even assembled. Yes, there were even short
passionate pleas and desperate cries for help! But even that was not the central focus. This
move of God centered on the radical worship of the One – Christ Jesus the Lord - and the
welcoming with abandonment of the third person of the Godhead – the Holy Spirit! The
jealousy of God permeated the experience. It was not a conference. It was not polished. It
was not even 24/7 as we presently know it. It was raw and overpowering. It was not
rehearsed. It was an invasion of the Holy Spirit Himself.

A window of opportunity had opened and this uncontrollable surging sound wave
jumped spontaneously around the globe. A man appeared on a pogo stick gleefully
jumping from city to city and nation to nation.  The man on the stick was William Seymour
of the historic Azusa Street Revival. He leapt across the nations and everywhere his pogo
stick landed, light came for a brief moment! The nations were in an uproar - and fire and
light were falling around the globe.

THEN I HEARD ONE LAST WORD

“A Line Has Been Drawn in the Sand.” Terror gripped
me. I shook. I honestly did not know what was coming
next. I still do not know having pondered deeply on this
experience. Was it Days of Glory or impending societal
chaos? Was it times of economic collapse or
reformation where a new order was created out of
tumultuous uncertainty? I honestly was left not knowing
what the outcome or the result was or would be.

But this I knew. Hope for the fragmented body of Christ
and the nations was being released. An invitation was being sent from heaven to earth and
a line was being drawn in the sand.

The word went in me. The word penetrated me. The word has disturbed me. But this I
know, heaven has a word that must be heard in the earth realm, “COME AGAIN HOLY
SPIRIT!” And the invitation must have an urgent and appropriate response.

In the Fear of the Lord,

Dr. James W. Goll

  1. James, your dream is a confirmation of the release of this word (and others) that the following ministries released about the same time you received your dream and word. Please take the time to read and listen to the new song coming forth from the belly of this state. Also I believe you need to contact David Andrade at 1-626-372-4163 and share this dream.

    From the belly of this state a sound is coming as what those who have gone before us travailed for and we will prevail in this hour through the birth pains so that the enemy will not abort, ruin or destroy the next move of God in this State. God is getting ready to unveil a new gusher of blessings upon this State as He has done in the past. We choose to look to God our Father and believe that through the travail, we will prevail until all that God wants to unveil is revealed to the people of this great State bringing forth a harvest the likes of which has not been seen in decades.

    We dedicate this new song to the travailers, prevailers and unveilers! You have been called at just the right time, in the right place and with the right heart. So shake, rattle and roll to this new song and let the joy of blessings breakthrough in this State ushering in another move of the Holy Spirit among us.

  3. I'm excited now! Worship was never meant to be about polish or human pomp, it is supposed to be a direct interaction with eternity and the throne room! Worship is truly the release of heaven. The heart posture of worship is what is going to deliver the church into the correct position to receive and be capable of receiving a move of the Holy Spirit of the magnitude in your dream. Worship is meant to be freely given, unhindered by what man thinks and has to say. It is time to worship, time to go after His heart and time to press in and say "Come Again Holy Spirit!" Again I'm so excited, thank you Dr. Goll for sharing this! Blessings!

  4. An invasion of the Holy Spirit? This experience must be to incredible for words. I have been sensing this stirring taking place. I have heard many messages about the Pacific NW being the birthing place, interesting to me that Southern California is the womb. God is up to something good fer sure. Will we as the body of Christ say, yes, even so, Come Lord Jesus?

  5. This word Come Holy Spirit reminds me that the young watchman Evan Roberts, in his earliest meeting in Wales, would have each person pray in turn, "Send the Spirit now, for Jesus' sake" ... until He came. Thanks for sharing this encouragement. We prayed last year, by God's Providence, on site at Azusa Street, with our son Evan Roberts, for the connection to be made again.

  6. On my 3rd decade in theVineyard and this word just brings fire to my heart. At theRiver Church of OC (a Vineyard) we have been contending for the fresh move of God and have been experiencing new doors opening in intense worship sessions. This word is spot on James and there is just so much confirmation here in what God has been speaking to our body of believers as well. Thank you for being obedient and for sharing this word! I want to frame it haha!!

  7. 4-11-13 My husband Ron and I just returned from a ministry trip to Southern California. As we were worshiping and praying last week on the beach in Santa Monica, the Lord spoke to me. He said " I want to do it again!" I asked Him" What Lord?" His answer was a vision of many people worshiping Him all up and down the coastline...He spoke and said" There used to be many of my people just like you and Ron, all up and down these beaches, all over this region, worship and prayer rose up from them and I moved among them and many were healed, delivered and saved from Hell. I want to do that again, I want to move like I moved at Azusa street, like the Jesus Movement, like John Wimber and his Vineyard church...only MORE!" When I heard it,I began to cry out, " Do it again God!"
    So, today, we pray,
    "Come again Holy Spirit! Come Lord Jesus! God Almighty, stretch forth Your Mighty Right hand in Southern California and all up and down the state! Come and do it again! Move upon your People! Revive them Lord! Move in the streets, on the beaches, in every place Lord! In the Mighty and Precious Name of Jesus! Amen
