"I do not understand Christian people who are not thrilled by the whole
idea of revival. . . . If you want a perfect exposition of 1
Corinthians 1:25-31, read books on revival." - Martyn Lloyd-Jones
"Oh, Brethren, it is sickening work to think of your cushioned seats,
your chants, your anthems, your choirs, your organs, your gowns, and
your bands, and I know not what besides, all made to be instruments of
religious luxury, if not of pious dissipation, while ye need far more
to be stirred up and incited to holy ardor for the propagation of the
truth as it is in Jesus.” - C.H. Spurgeon
"Are we jealous for God’s glory? To me that is what revival is all about." -Leonard Ravenhill
“There is need of a great revival of spiritual life, of truly fervent
devotion to our Lord Jesus, of entire consecration to His service. It
is only in a church in which this spirit of revival has at least begun,
that there is any hope of radical change in the relation of the
majority of our Christian people to mission work.” - Andrew Murray
"Revival is the saints of God agonizing on behalf of lost souls going to hell." - James A. Stewart
"Brethren, it is just so much humbug to be waiting for this, night
after night, month after month, if we ourselves are not right with God.
I must ask myself - "Is my heart pure? Are my hands clean?" - Comment
from the Hebrides' Revival
"The assembly were in tears while the Word was preached; some weeping
sorrows and distress, others with joy and love, others with concern for
the souls of their neighbors." - Jonathan Edwards The 1st Great
Awakening
"Church altars which for years had been nothing more than pieces of
furniture now became hallowed places where men met God, and brother was
reconciled with brother.” - Robert Coleman The Asbury Revival
"The Spirit, like a mighty rushing wind, seemed to sweep all before it:
the youths, the middle-aged, and the the man of years fell prostrate at
the cross!" - Unknown The 2nd Great Awakening
"So tremendous has been this sense of an awareness of God, that I have
known men out in the fields, so overcome that they were prostrate upon
the ground." - Duncan Campbell The Lewis Revival
"I contend that whatever does not raise the moral standard of the
church or community has not been a revival from God." - A. W. Tozer
"If you want revival, let me remind you that God only plants the seed
of His life in soil which has been broken up by repentance." - Alan
Redpath
“Oh! men and brethren, what would this heart feel if I could but
believe that there were some among you who would go home and pray for a
revival – men whose faith is large enough, and their love fiery enough
to lead them from this moment to exercise unceasing intercessions that
God would appear among us and do wondrous things here, as in the times
of former generations.” - C. H. Spurgeon
“Revivals begin with God's own people; the Holy Spirit touches their
heart anew, and gives them new fervor and compassion, and zeal, new
light and life, and when He has thus come to you, He next goes forth to
the valley of dry bones…Oh, what responsibility this lays on the Church
of God! If you grieve Him away from yourselves, or hinder His visit,
then the poor perishing world suffers sorely!” - Andrew A. Bonar
“In the Irish Revival of 1859, people became so weak that they could
not get back to their homes. Men and women would fall by the wayside
and would be found hours later pleading with God to save their souls.
They felt that they were slipping into hell and that nothing else in
life mattered but to get right with God... To them eternity meant
everything. Nothing else was of any consequence. They felt that if God
did not have mercy on them and save them, they were doomed for all time
to come." - Oswald J. Smith
“The chief danger of the Church today is that it is trying to get on
the same side as the world, instead of turning the world upside down.
Our Master expects us to accomplish results, even if they bring
opposition and conflict. Anything is better than compromise, apathy,
and paralysis. God give to us an intense cry for the old-time power of
the Gospel and the Holy Ghost!” - A. B. Simpson
“With some men it would seem, if they could control God's operations
and manipulate His actions they might tolerate a revival; but to allow
God a free hand, fills them with righteous indignation and horror. If
only God would consent to become an 'ecclesiastic' and respect their
dignity and decorum and beautiful order of service and ways of running
the Church, they might condescend to have a revival.” - William P.
Nicholson
"Revival comes from heaven when heroic souls enter the conflict
determined to win or die-or if need be, to win and die! "The kingdom of
heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." - Charles
G. Finney
"Before the great revival in Gallneukirchen broke out, Martin Boos
spent hours and days and often nights in lonely agonies of
intercession. Afterwards, when he preached, his words were as flame,
and the hearts of the people as grass." - D. M. McIntyre
"If revival is being withheld from us it is because some idol remains
still enthroned; because we still insist in placing our reliance in
human schemes; because we still refuse to face the unchangeable truth
that 'It is not by might, but by My Spirit." - Jonathan Goforth
"A church in the land without the Spirit is rather a curse than a
blessing. If you have not the Spirit of God, Christian worker, remember
that you stand in somebody else's way; you are a fruitless tree
standing where a fruitful tree might grow." - C. H. Spurgeon
"A revival is nothing else than a new beginning of obedience to God." - Charles Finney
“Revivals begin with God's own people; the Holy Spirit touches their
heart anew, and gives them new fervour and compassion, and zeal, new
light and life, and when He has thus come to you, He next goes forth to
the valley of dry bones…Oh, what responsibility this lays on the Church
of God! If you grieve Him away from yourselves, or hinder His visit,
then the poor perishing world suffers sorely!” - Andrew A. Bonar
"Revival is a renewed conviction of sin and repentance, followed by an
intense desire to live in obedience to God. It is giving up one's will
to God in deep humility." - Charles Finney
“God, I pray Thee, light these idle sticks of my life and may I burn
for Thee. Consume my life, my God, for it is Thine. I seek not a long
life, but a full one, like you, Lord Jesus.” - Jim Elliot (martyred
missionary to the indigenous of Ecuador)
“GOD IS THE TRUTH. The Bible is the truth about the Truth. The sermons
are the truth about the truth about the Truth. Theology, if it is a
fundamentalist one, is the truth about the truth about the truth about
the Truth. And because of so much scaffolding around the Truth, because
of the multitude of words, the truth is drowned. I wish you to meet God
Himself, in the year which stands before us.” - Richard Wurmbrand
"A genuine rival without joy in the Lord is as impossible as spring
without flowers, or day-dawn without light." - Charles Spurgeon
"Chosen not for good in me, Wakened up from wrath to flee, Hidden in
the Savior’s side, By the Spirit sanctified, Teach me, Lord, on earth
to show, By my love, how much I owe" - McCheyne
"Mr. Campbell, if you were living as near to God as you ought to be, He
would reveal His secrets to you, also." - Peggy Smith (Blind prayer
warrior) to Duncan Campbell when he expressed doubt in the wisdom of
coming to a small isolated village to preach. The Hebrides Revival
followed. |
