What does the bible say about revival?

Answer 1

I appreciate what The Bible says at Isiah 57:15-"For this is what the High and Lofty One, who is residing forever and whose name is holy, has said: 'In the height and in the holy place is where I reside, also with the one crushed and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly ones and to revive the heart of the ones being crushed.'"

'Revive' is also mentioned at-

• Genesis 45:27
• 2 Kings 1:2, 8, 9, 10, 14
• Psalms 71:20
• Isiah 38:21
• Zechariah 10:9
• Hebrews 6:6

Answer 2

In the King James version

the word - revive - appears 8 times

the word - revived - appears 6 times

the word - reviving - appears twice

But - there is no mention of the word - revival - at all.

Answer 3

Essentially, the Bible does not use the word revival. It does, however, address the issue of lackadaisical Christianity and the consequences of falling away from the faith.
