Terry L. Richardson passionately prays for a revival akin to the great spiritual awakenings of the past, invoking the powerful manifestations of God's glory witnessed by John Wesley, Charles Finney, Kathryn Kuhlman, and Smith Wigglesworth. The sermon emphasizes the deep longing to witness the lost returning to God, the sick being healed, and the dead being raised, drawing inspiration from historical figures like William Booth, John Lake, and Leonard Ravenhill who sacrificially served God and yearned for His presence and revival.
