When Oswald J. Smith wrote this book almost a hundred years ago he
felt the most pressing need of the worldwide church was true
revival-the kind birthed in desperate prayer and accompanied by
deep conviction for sin, godly sorrow, and deep repentance,
resulting in a living, victorious faith. If he were alive today he
would surely conclude that the need has only become more acute with
the passing years. The author relates how there came a time in his
own ministry when he became painfully aware that his efforts were
not producing spiritual results. His intense study of the New
Testament and past revivals only deepened this conviction. The Word
of God, which had proved to be a hammer, a fire and a sword in the
hands of apostles and revivalists of bygone days, was powerless in
his hands. But as he prayed and sought God in dead earnest for the
outpouring of the Holy Spirit, things began to change. Souls came
under conviction, repented of their sins, and were lastingly
changed. The earlier chapters of the book contain Smith's
heart-stirring messages on the need for authentic revival: how to
prepare the way for the Spirit's moving, the tell-tale signs that
the work is genuine, and the obstacles that can block up the
channels of blessing. These chapters are laced with powerful
quotations from revivalists and soul-winners of former times, such
as David Brainerd, William Bramwell, John Wesley, Charles Finney,
Evan Roberts and many others. The latter chapters detail Smith's
own quest for the enduement of power, his soul-travail, and the
spiritual fruit that followed. In his foreword to this book,
Jonathan Goforth writes, "Mr. Smith's book, The Revival We Need,
for its size is the most powerful plea for revival I have ever
read. He has truly been led by the Spirit of God in preparing it.
To his emphasis for the need of a Holy Spirit revival I can give
the heartiest amen. What I saw of revival in Korea and in China is
in fullest accord with the revival called for in this book."
