The first two nights of Mario Murillo’s Fire and Glory Tour crusade in Colorado Springs, Colorado were simply incredible. But they were only a taste of what was to come the following evening.
As Murillo walked onto the platform one could sense a battle going on in the spiritual realm. There was a thickness to the air, as if something was attempting to discourage and shut down what was happening. But God was about to explode that darkness.
Murillo began immediately preaching the soul winning message for the night. He went straight after the lost. He quoted Billy Graham who said, how amazing it is, the way the Holy Spirit works—the way He will take truth and drive it into the heart of a person.
He then told people they were going to change. He said it wouldn’t be by his eloquence or words, but that the Holy Spirit would speak to them and they would want to respond.
“This poor man cried out, and the Lord heard, and saved him out of all his troubles” (Ps. 34:6).
Murillo told them, “God is trying to save you from your troubles, your worries and your fears.”
Murillo said it was an amazing day when, in the fourth chapter of the book of Luke Jesus publicly announced who He was and what He was going to do while He was on earth. Jesus listed the litany of human sorrow, grief and pain and said He was going to go after it and have an affect upon mankind that no one else has ever had before. Jesus said He was going to bind up the brokenhearted.
Why Are Mario Murillo’s Tent Meetings So Powerful?
Murillo then told the story of Jacob, and how Jacob’s name means “con artist,” or supplanter. Jacob knew his life was a lie, that he wasn’t valid, and neither did he have an identity. He stole his brother’s blessing and manipulated his way through life.
“Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him there until daybreak” (Gen. 32:24).
This Man was God. When God shows up, you confess your sin. You may not want to, but in the presence of God, you are compelled to do so.
Jacob knew from tradition that to touch God would be death, but he didn’t care. He was so desperate he grabbed onto God and began wrestling with Him. He said, “I will not let You go unless you bless me.”
Murillo then appealed to those who wanted this same freedom to raise their hands and to come forward. And come forward they did. It was the largest altar call response of the week. It was an enormous throng, and it was a beautiful sight.
Murillo led them in a beautiful prayer and then they met with our many wonderful volunteer workers to be welcomed into the family of God.
By this time, the atmosphere under the tent had changed. The mood of the crowd was lighter than before, while at the same time, the presence of God was thick.
It was clear people in attendance were in for a mighty move of the power of God.
Mario Murillo Explains Why ‘It’s Our Turn Now’
Murillo then had every preacher, minister, teacher of the Bible and Christian leader present in the tent stand to their feet. He said the Holy Spirit directed him to impart something to every minister under the tent, regardless of denomination.
He said that the ability to stand in front of a crowd and call them out of the darkness and into the light would be theirs. The ability would be theirs to look at an audience, see sickness and call it out.
He told them whatever power in which they were currently operating, they needed to prepare to rise to another level.
As the song “The Anointing” played with people praying throughout the tent, the presence of God rose and became stronger. Murillo prayed for the anointing of the Holy Spirit to come upon every person and for faith to arise in each person, for an unshakable conviction.
Murillo began to call out illnesses like stomach cancer, heart disease and paralysis. He said the power of God was falling on them and that God was removing their ailments.
Murillo made his way down off the platform and began to move through the tent as God began to heal the sick.
He prayed for one man’s spine and neck. He moved to the far side of the tent and called out a man, told him that as his spine was being healed and it would start the river of God flowing in the meeting.
He then called out a woman who had a growth that he saw leaving her body. Indeed, she testified it had. Six people with respiratory and lung diseases were healed.
The Holy Spirit touched a woman who had suffered 10 years with pain in her feet, right hip, lower back and fingers, and she was able to move freely throughout the tent.
The meeting was miraculous and powerful. God’s presence was so thick and real that it was undeniable! But Murillo repeatedly reminded the crowd that all the glory belongs to God!
