Publisher's summary

This is an updated edition of a book written by Missionary and evangelist Roy Hession in 1950 in which he profiles the nature of religious revival and lays out the prerequisites and consequences of the activity of God in the heart of the hungry seeker.

Roy Hession (1908-1992) was a British evangelist and author. Hession was born in London in 1908. He was educated at Aldenham School where his introduction to religion led him to expect "anything but boredom" from God. He was very much influenced by their strong emphasis on a personal implementation of the basics of the Christian faith, in particular the healing powers of openness and repentance. His preaching subsequently incorporated these new insights. This brought criticism because of its introspective element, from some he had previously worked with, but it was much appreciated by many Christians on both sides of the Atlantic.

Roy Hession died in 1992 but he is remembered for his infectious enthusiasm and his humor, but above all for his unwavering stand on the principles of repentance and grace that had become so precious to him.

Very Helpful

A very scriptural book. Uncovers misconceptions of what is revival. It begins with me. Confessing my unspirit-filled reactions to others. Not there sin but mine on a daily bases. So many more good teachings in this book. Also filled with others testimonials.

Valued Instruction for Personal Revival

Even though the author's instruction is deeply colored through the filter of his personal experience, he's still right about the basic components and steps of revival. It's very useful in that this book is almost laid out like a service manual for your spirit. as there are new new models of spirits but those but God creates man with, the manual is still valid today and it remains timeless.

Great Book

This was a great and honest book that is a needed one in your personal lives . There’s nothing more important than what we do with the name Jesus Christ and where we put that name. “ Who is Jesus Christ” ?

All about the work of Jesus.

For Christians wanting a really powerful and easy read. It’s an inspirational and eye opening book. Showing us how to stop looking so much for self needs and what our flesh desires but more and how to bow our egos to become like Christ. Discussions on walking with Jesus daily and how to surrender to the cross.

Every Christian Needs to Read This

Don't be put off by the age of this book or think that it is no longer relevant in the modern landscape of Christian teaching. It manages to encapsulate timeless truth about our relationship with Jesus that is even more relevant today than when it was first published. To be able to walk in constant fullness of God's Spirit to overflowing is the greatest calling of our lives. Without this book I wouldn't have known the depth of meekness and repentance required to access God's peace that surpasses understanding.

Highly recommended

Excellent book and easy to listen to, very well narrated. The book is in short chapters which is good for mulling over after each one. The book ends with three brief interviews with the author who underlines the simple yet vital biblical truths in his book. This book will be highly valued by anyone wanting a deeper daily experience of walking with Jesus Christ.
