That kind of intensity and passion was extended into the services on Friday nights and on Sunday nights where both overflows were filled. Many came to know the Lord, many rededicated their lives and a hunger seemed to sweep the congregation with great enthusiasm for more of God's presence. Time, distance and language was not a factor as people came to seek the Lord. This renewal which precedes revival, I believe, came about because people truly began to hunger and thirst after God. This is the second ingredient in seeing revival because hungering and thirsting will produce a consistent, fervent desire in crying out before the Lord.
Prayer is one thing, but consistent prayer is another.
The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much . I am convinced that unless we pray and fast as an act of humility and self denial before the Lord, we will not see revival in our churches nor in our land. My prayer is that we as pastors and leaders would gather together and truly cry out to the Lord to see His power released in our lives, our churches and in our country. I believe confirms what I am saying. For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.
