We see God high and lifted up, clearly discovering that everything in heaven and earth is under His divine influence and control. In revival, worship and testimony, we realize that His throne is the most powerful in all of creation. His spoken truth shakes the foundations and doorposts of man's thoughts and imagination. When revival and renewal really come, they reveal the absolute power of God to all who participate. All worry, fear and doubt in His ability dissipate.
Divine power is demonstrated and appropriated.
Revival and renewal amplify God's holiness and reveal His motives and desires. While His thoughts towards us are always those of deepest care and purest desire, in revival we grasp a greater faith to really trust His plans and purposes for us. Thirdly, genuine revival brings the revelation of God's ready willingness to forgive and forget. To our amazement and relief, we learn intimately that God does not have to be begged or badgered. His response is to cleanse us at the altar of sacrifice, casting our sin into the sea of His forgetfulness for all eternity .
