It isn t about great preaching. In fact, God will be moving so greatly that there may be very little preaching in a revival service. It isn t about church growth. It isn t about wonderful praise and worship. Revival is a work in the heart, and that only happens at the altar.
Intercessory prayer is essential to revival, but so is altar time.
The prayer will prepare the ground for God to move. The altar is where God will do the moving. These two cornerstones will be the framework that God will use to accomplish His work. The first work of revival will be in purifying. The second work of revival will be one of restoration.
