Talk of revival isn’t nearly as common as it used to be. Terry Virgo
explains why now may be the time to pray again
Revival is a theme which used to stir believers more than it does today.
When I was first converted in the 60s it was the subject of prayer meetings and
inspiring books recounting amazing stories of what God had done in previous
generations. Excitement continued to build and by the 1990s our worship songs
were full of revival-centred lyrics such as ‘We need another Pentecost’, ‘A time
of jubilee is coming when young and old return to Jesus’ and ‘Send revival,
start with me’.
