Revival requires a hunger for the truth, a desire to seek God's purpose and will, and a passion for the cross and the kingdom of God and His righteousness 8-)

Revival requires the Holy Spirit of God moving and awakening his Bride. Revival is one of the missions of the Holy Spirit here on this earth. Without the Holy Spirit quickening your lethargic soul all you have left is man-centered and man- produced emotions. Emotion is most assuradly not revival, though revival does include your emotions. Revival is the fear of God, the dreadful awareness of His holiness and the knowledge of your monstrous iniquity, as you cry along with Isaiah "Woe is me, for I am a man of unclean lips and I live among a people of unclean lips". (Isaiah 8:12-14) "And you are not to fear what they fear or be in dread of it. It is the LORD of hosts whom you should regard as holy. He shall be your fear, and He shall be your dread. Then He shall become a sanctuary.However, without the Holy Spirit nothing of this sort can happen. Can a dead man command himself to live? Or dry bones command themselves to become flesh? Neither can a revival take place without God's Holy Spirit.
