INTRODUCTION
By NORMAN P. GRUBB, Hon. Secretary of the Worldwide
Evangelization Crusade, London
I am sure from my own experience, as well as from what we have seen
in the ranks of our Mission these last three years, that what the authors
tell us about in these pages is one of God's vital words to His
worldwide church today. For long I had regarded revival only from the
angle of some longed for, but very rare, sudden outpouring of the Spirit

on a company of people. I felt that there was a missing link somewhere.
Knowing of the continuing revival on a certain mission field, and
because it was continuing and not merely sudden and passing, I long
felt that they had a further secret we needed to learn. Then the chance
came for heart-to-heart fellowship with them, first through one of our
own missionary leaders whose life and ministry had been transformed
by a visit to that field, and then through conferences with some of their
missionaries on furlough and finally through the privilege of having
two of the native brethren living for six months at our headquarters.
From them I learned and saw that revival is first personal and
immediate. It is the constant experience of any simplest Christian who
"walks in the light," but I saw that walking in the light means an
altogether new sensitiveness to sin, a calling things by their proper
name of sin, such as pride, hardness, doubt, fear, self-pity, which are
often passed over as merely human reaction. It means a readiness to
"break" and confess at the feet of Him who was broken for us, for the
Blood does not cleanse excuses, but always cleanses sin, confessed as
sin; then revival is just the daily experience of a soul full of Jesus and
running over.
Further, we are beginning to learn, as a company of Christ's witnesses,
that the rivers of life to the world do not flow out in their fulness
through one man, but through the body, the team. Our brokenness and
openness must be two-way, horizontal as well as vertical, with one
another as with God. We are just beginning to experience in our own
ranks that team work in the Spirit is one of the keys to revival, and that
we have to learn and practice the laws of a living fellowship.
I need not say more, as Roy Hession and his wife expound the whole
matter. But we have seen God at work in our midst. I could name
half-a-dozen of our workers, several of them leaders, in whose lives
there has been a new spiritual revolution. Then rivulets of blessing in
some of our individual lives have been merging in a larger stream. God
has been giving us times as a company when "as they prayed, the place
was shaken where they were assembled together, and they were all
filled with the Holy Ghost." Here and there on our battle fields, distant

and near, the sound of abundance of rain is being heard; and we believe
among many companies of God's people He is preparing afresh for
these last days a "sharp threshing instrument having teeth," and that
what God is saying to us through this Revival, and through the
interpretation of that message in this pamphlet, is a word of the Lord
for our day. May it be greatly used to produce revived lives, revived
fellowships and revived churches. PREFACE
In April, 1947, several missionaries came at my invitation to an Easter
Conference which I was organising. I invited them to come as speakers,
because I had heard that they had been experiencing Revival in their
field for a number of years, and I was interested in
