A revival almost always begins among the laity. The ecclesiastical leaders seldom welcome reformation. History repeats itself. The present leaders are too comfortably situated as a rule to desire innovation that might require sacrifice on their part. And God's fire only falls on sacrifice. An empty altar receives no fire!
The depth of our repentance will determine the depth of our revival.
God has always sought a humble people. He can use no other... There is always much need of heart preperation, in humility and separation, before God can consistently come. The depth of any revival will be determined exactly by the spirit of repentance that is obtained. In fact, this is key to every true revival born of God.
The very truths that gave birth to the Pentecostal movement are today generally rejected as too strong.
I have stopped more than once within two blocks of the place [Azusa Street Revival] and prayed for strength before I dare go on. The presence of the Lord was so real.
