Oswald J. Smith emphasizes the urgent need for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit, reflecting on historical revivals in Wales, Hawaii, and the Eastern States, where communities were transformed through deep conviction of sin and genuine repentance. He laments the current spiritual apathy in churches and the lack of hunger for God, urging believers to confront their sins before seeking revival. Smith calls for earnest prayer and repentance, citing the prophecy of Joel as a guide for returning to God and receiving His blessings. He stresses that the revival is contingent upon the church's readiness to forsake sin and seek God wholeheartedly. The message is a passionate plea for a renewed spiritual awakening in the face of societal decline.

David Wilkerson emphasizes the urgent need for a powerful outpouring of the Holy Spirit among God's people, akin to the events of Pentecost. He draws parallels between the cries of the faithful in Isaiah's time and the disciples in the Upper Room, both seeking God's presence and intervention in a world filled with darkness. Wilkerson encourages believers to unite in prayer, asking God to rend the heavens and come down, as they hold onto the promise of His coming. He reminds the congregation that God is actively listening to their cries and is preparing to manifest His presence in response to their faith. The sermon calls for a collective awakening and readiness to meet Jesus as He returns.
