<TITLE>07. Par 64-73</TITLE>L-64 Now, in this great Welsh revival that started, that was a jubilee time for the Welsh people. There started, just a bunch of illiterate people just preaching the Gospel. And the power and the glory of God begin to fall, until business men would go to work and sit down at their desk, and weep like babies, and close their meet--their business. Farmers in the field would be sitting on their plows, a plowing. They'd stop their teams and get out in the field, rank sinners, and raise up their hands to God, and cry out for mercy. People walking on the roads, and everywhere... Whistles started to blowing and everything else. There was a revival on.
That's what America needs tonight. It doesn't need a Billy Graham, nor it don't need an Oral Roberts. What it needs tonight is the Holy Spirit moving among the people, claiming the year of freedom. That's right. Doesn't need a new organization. Doesn't need a new setup. The only thing it needs is the Holy Spirit to come in convicting power. You could preach the Gospel till you turned gray; you could work signs and wonders till you turned gray; except God gets out amongst the people and goes to moving...

L-66 Why, when that revival started, a minister went down to a place where there was a culvert that crossed the road. And he got... stopped his horse, and got under this culvert, and said, "Almighty God, this city is all polluted down here." Said, "Cause every man, woman, boy or girl, that passes over this culvert, to fall under conviction by Your Spirit." He went and got a good, faithful warrior, stuck him under that place to pray. Stay in there, day and night, fasting, praying.
He went on into the city, and asked permission to ask the blessing at the table, before the dinner was served. Said, "All right."
And he stood and said, "Lord God, cause every man and every woman that sits at this table to come under conviction."
And it was said, and wrote by papers, that, "Men would pass over that culvert, and stop their horses on the road, and start weeping and crying. Men and women would come to the table and sit down and get their food, and push it back, and would weep and cry and repent." That's the kind of revival that we need tonight, where God gets out amongst the people.

L-71 We can start a meeting, work signs and wonders. I noticed it here. I go out, and sometimes in the meeting, blind see, deaf hear. The people come around and look, say, "That's wonderful." When the revival's gone, you don't hear of them no more. They're right back out, "Well, yes, I believe in that."
What it needs tonight is not a new preacher. What it needs is the Holy Spirit get out amongst the people, go to stirring them up, hungering and thirsting for righteousness' sake. "Blessed are they when they hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled." Wherever it is, it takes the Holy Spirit to do it.

L-73 Now, in these days when these priests... They'd take the man out there, and maybe hoeing in the corn field; the master walking down, whipped him with the whip, "Hurry up there. Got to hurry up with this."
But just as soon as that trumpet sounded, that man could throw that hoe down, say, "I won't hoe with it no more." And that taskmaster, that slave driver, was forbidden to touch him any more, 'cause he was free. Why? He heard the good news. The jubilee was on. The atonement was made, and all the slaves could go free.
