I watched one time at the seashore, where a wind was blowing, and it was just shaking. Why, it wasn't a seashore, it was up at Lake Michigan. I was standing out there watching the waves as they would come in, and, oh, that sea was a jumping, or the waters a jumping, and the boats a rocking. And I thought, "What is that going on?" I thought, "Why, the lake is having a revival." That's it. It jumping and shaking, why? There is a rushing mighty wind coming down on it. I thought, "Well, you know what? There isn't one more drop of water in it right now than what it was when it was perfectly still." No more water in it; it's just all stirred up. Well, now, what's it stirred up about?" You know what a stirring up of the water does? Washes all the trash out of it, up on the bank.
That's what we need, a washing of unbelief out, on the bank. Let the Word of God have preeminence. That's what we need, a revival, and wash all the unbelief out, and all the bugs and superstitions, and things. Come out and see that God is still God. That's what we have revivals for.
