• Perhaps the greatest barrier to revival on a large scale is the fact that we are to interested in a great display. We want an exhibition; God is looking for a man who will throw himself entirely on God. Whenever self-effort, self-glory, self-seeking or self-promotion enters into the work of revival, then God leaves us to ourselves.

• In the Irish Revival of 1859, people became so weak that they
  could not get back to their homes. Men and women would fall by
  the wayside and would be found hours later pleading with God to
  save their souls. They felt that they were slipping into hell and that
  nothing else in life mattered but to get right with God... To them
  eternity meant everything. Nothing else was of any consequence.
  They felt that if God did not have mercy on them and save them,
  they were doomed for all time to come.

  Oswald J. Smith
