One of the greatest needs today is the powerful preaching of the Word of God. Iain Murray in his book Pentecost - Today? The Biblical Basis for Understanding Revival tells what happened on the eve of the Great Evangelical Awakening in England in the 18th century - "...on the eve of the new year 1739, a group of preachers and others met in London for prayer. Of that meeting John Wesley said, 'As we were continuing instant in prayer, the power of God came mightily upon us, insomuch that many cried out for exceeding joy, and many fell to the ground.' Speaking of these same days, Whitefield wrote: 'It was a Pentecost season indeed. Sometimes whole nights were spent in prayer. Often have we been filled as with new wine. And often have I seen them overwhelmed with the Divine Presence, and crying out, 'Will God, indeed, dwell with men upon earth?'" (p. 84) We need another visitation of the Spirit as in the days of George Whitefield and John Wesley - We need the powerful preaching of the Word of God as it was then. We need to be clothed with power from on High.
