Send a Great Revival to My Soul!



Send a Great Revival to My Soul!

Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?“ (Psa: 85:6)

Gypsy Smith, an old time evangelist years ago, would lock himself in a private room and mark a circle on floor with a piece of chalk. Standing inside that circle he would pray, “Lord send a revival; and let it begin with me!” That circle was ground zero; the flash point of a cardiac revolution. And you, my dear friend, are standing in that circle right now.

Take these words of the old Pentecostal hymn, written by Charles Gabriel in 1912,  and make them your prayer until fire falls from heaven upon the altar of your heart.

 Lord, as of old, at Pentecost,didst Thy power display,cleansing, purifying flame,on us today.

For mighty works for Thee, preparestrengthen every heart;, take possession of Thine own,never more depart.

All self consume, all sin destroy!earnest zeal enduewaiting heart to work for Thee;Lord, our faith renew!

Speak, Lord! before Thy throne we wait,promise we believe,will not let Thee go until blessing we receive.

Lord, send the old-time power, the Pentecostal power!floodgates of blessing, on us throw open wide!, send the old-time power, the Pentecostal power!sinners be converted and Thy Name glorified!
