Who Can Have Revival?
1. God Revives Those who Confess Spiritual Failure in their Lives
Revival presupposes failure.
It is only those who admit failure and fainting whom God truly revives.
Prayerlessness - Luke 18:1
If a man is not praying, he is fainting. The word “to faint” here is “to cave in” or “to break down.”
E.M. Bounds, the great prophet of prayer, said:
“Every revival of which we have any record has been bathed in prayer.”
Fearfulness - Hebrews 12:3-4
“to faint” means “to relax,” or “to let out rope.”
Barrenness - Galatians 6:9
to faint or relax is to be barren, to lose the fruitfulness of harvest.
