Have you lost sight of the dreams God placed in your heart long ago? Revival will bring back to life those brittle, bruised, or dormant areas within you. Examining the steps to revival that God gave to King Solomon, Pat Robertson reveals an amazing Scriptural pattern. He describes radical transformations that occur when people hunger for God's presence and become living sacrifices of praise. Now -- as you radiate knowledge of God, others will be drawn to the fire of His presence. The unique qualities God placed within you before you were born will begin to bloom and bear fruit for His glory!
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
In 1874, the evangelist Charles G. Finney gave a controversial series of lectures to divinity students on revivals of religion. Finney endured a great deal of criticism for saying that Christian revival could be humanly engineered; it was not necessary to wait for God to fan the flames of revival. Rather, it was required of Christian believers to actively seek opportunities to create revival and convert unbelievers. Pat Robertson's Six Steps to Christian Revival: God's Awesome Power in Your Life certainly follows in Finney's footsteps ideologically, albeit not as ambitiously: It focuses more on personal, inner renewal than mass revivals or crusades. Robertson's six steps humble yourself, pray, seek God's face, turn from sin, gather in prayer and persevere are classic, and his short book is very solidly based on the Bible, although the prose is not very energetic.

Needed less Jesus, more action!,
By "zazover" (Albany, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Six Steps to Spiritual Revival: God's Awesome Power in Your Life (LifeChange Books) (Hardcover)
I bought this book to establish a closer relationship with Him, but all it got me was confused! I tried each of Robertson's 6 steps: humble yourself (I wore a Garfield sweatshirt to work); pray (doing it in the bathroom passes the time and is efficient for us on-the-go Christies); seek God's face (I have no idea what this means); turn from sin (I got dizzy); gather in prayer (I got so much prayer, it's like prayer for sale!, you know what I mean?), and persevere (I read Ziggy each and every morning). And nothing happened! No voices, no smoke, no lasers, nothing! I even set up little miracles to happen (walking in traffic, jumping out of a small building) and all I got was injured. I thought this would be an Easy Street to Jesus. But instead it was a big fat rip.

Personal Revival,
This review is from: Six Steps to Spiritual Revival: God's Awesome Power in Your Life (LifeChange Books) (Hardcover)
I read this book in 2003. Since then, I have used it on multiple occasions. It is based on II Chronicles 7:14 for the six steps. So, each one is very Biblical. I have also used it for preaching and teaching.
If you want to know what true revival looks like, pick up a copy and read. It should be able to be read in one or two settings in no time.

A boring book by a controversial figure,
By israel thomas (sydney, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Six Steps to Spiritual Revival: God's Awesome Power in Your Life (LifeChange Books) (Hardcover)
Pat is well known in the Christian political landscape.I am amazed to see that he has so little of substance to say in his book. His sections on spiritual prosperity ( actually just the same old prosperity theology recycled ) were good for a laugh. I will not comment on his views on morality since they are well known and have been discussed ad nauseu. After all, even Pat is entitled to his ( mistaken in my view ) beliefs. Avoid this book.
