Revival in the Hebrides Quotes

“Revival is not going to come merely by attending Conferences or Conventions, though that may contribute to it. When "Zion travailed she brought forth children," Oh, may God bring us there, may God lead us through to the place of absolute surrender. I shall never forget that dear saint of God, Dr. Inwood, cry at the 1924 Keswick Convention, "Christian men and women, self-renunciation is the cardinal ethic of the Christian Church." Is it not true, too often our very best moments of yielding and consecration are mingled with the destructive element of self-preservation? A full and complete surrender is the price of blessing, but that also is the price of revival.”

“The truth about the Holy Spirit is discoverable and verifiable only by submission to His power. We may talk about Him, we may think about Him, but only when we submit can we know His mighty power.”

“If you want revival, get right with God. If you are not prepared to bring the "last piece," for God's sake stop talking about revival, your talking and praying is but the laughing-stock of devils. It is about time we got into the grips of reality. Are we thirsty? "I hunger and I thirst, Jesus my Manna be." Is that your prayer?”

“We long for revival, we are longing to see a movement in our own community, in our own Church, Hall or Assembly, and we are crying "God send it," but heaven cries: "Is your eye fixed upon Me?" "Get rightly related to Me.”

“Frequently I say that the baptism of the Holy Spirit in its final analysis is not manifestations, it is not gifts. The baptism of the Holy Spirit in its final analysis is the revelation of Jesus. "God revealed His Son in me.”

“Some years ago I was on holiday on the Island of Jura. While there I had the use of a very fine sailing boat. One day, with my daughter, I sailed past a lighthouse that seemed to stand erect out of the ocean. It being high tide the rock on which it was built was covered. While passing, the thought occurred to me, “that lighthouse could be as treacherous as the rock on which it was built, but for the light.” It was the light that made the difference. The structure was perfect and the building the work of a master – but a positive danger to navigation apart from the light! Is the lighthouse a far-fetched comparison, or do I see in it a representation of the institution we call the Church and the vocation we call the Ministry – without the anointing of the Holy Spirit, a positive danger in the community; with the anointing, giving direction because men see God?”

“I've sometimes said that supposing Lewis produced nothing but one young girl, a wild, wild girl, just 17 years of age, and an outstanding singer, frequently singing at big concerts in Glasgow. [Mary Peckham, nee Morrison] She was outstanding, and is outstanding. God saved her. She went to a Bible school, and today I have no hesitation in saying that she is among the leading Bible expositors in Britain, and that is saying a lot. She is just now in South Africa addressing conferences and conventions. Has been instrumental in bringing blessing to scores of ministers, and she was the fruit of the movement.”
