All those consumed with the desire to see revival our time and more importantly to experience revival in their lives, will find a great resource here.‘ Dr. Dieumeme Noelliste Professor of Theological Ethics; Denver Seminary Colorado, USA In this book on revival Dr. Raphael Thomas has skilfully woven a tapestry of the Old Testament narrative of the life and times of King Hezekiah with the life and times of his contemporary Christian Church in need of revival. Like a seamless garment he has elucidated and applied the principles of renewal and revival among the people of God then, to his passionate yearning for revival among the people of God now. Rev. Dr. Samuel Vassel, Pastor, Bronx Bethany Church of the Nazarene, Bronx, New York, U.S.A. From his youth, Raphael has displayed disquiet with mediocre Christianity. His passion for god has led him to investigate the features of one of the greatest Old Testament Revivals.
