B. The word means to live and to have life; to remain alive and to sustain life; to be quickened from sickness, discouragement, faintness, or death; to be restored to life or health; to cause to grow.
C. Revival is the giving of a new breath of life to that which is either waning or has ceased to breathe. Revival is a visitation of God which brings renewed life to Christians who have been sleeping; restoring them, producing a deep sense of God's near presence and holiness, real joy, purpose, and a reenergized zeal.
