Hebrides Revival

Isaiah 44:3-4
    For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring: [4] And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.

On a small remote island of the northwestern coast of Scotland in 1949, two elderly women fervently prayed the above Scriptures.  One was blind, the other in severe arthritis.  Yet, these two women God could not ignore in their constant seeking of the LORD to come to the island of Lewis.  How could one expect God to come to this group of islands, but He did.  Reverend Duncan Campbell went out there to begin a two week evangelical meeting but he had no idea that God, in His holiness would spread out to bring sinners and backsliders alike.  Drinking places and dance halls were touched, and when God arrived there, ALL of them emptied it in a matter of minutes, running to the church.  Others could not take the burden of the sinful lifestyle any longer, crowding the police station in the amazement of Mr. Campbell.  A boy of fifteen started a simple prayer with just one word released from his lips - Father.  People were crying for His mercy in sincere and godly repentance. 
In one town, resistance was met by a pastor and his congregation but that did not stop God.  People from around the town and neighborhoods came to meet in a field, where the Word, singing of psalms, and wretched people met God for the first time, and did all what was needed to bring themselves to Him.  This went on on this group of islands for three to four years.
The church brags of the Toronto Outpouring, and the Brownsville and Pensacola Revivals (I will not mention the Lakeland Outpouring here, that I can not include in this debate).  Many boast of saying of His presence and manifestations in these meetings, but somehow this is limited to believers.  In the Hebrides Revival, this was so powerful born out of prayer, that it touched those who were powerless in Christ and the sinners.  Meetings were done SIX TIMES A DAY until usually four in the morning.  Then it would start again, wave after wave.  People who witnessed this revival are on video through YouTube, though I do not know if any are still alive to carry on the word of its happenings.
I have been in churches in the past who have bragged of His presence, but I believe people are satisfied with the drop in the bucket compared to what He truly is.  If His presence was so strong, why aren't those outside being drawn in?  Why isn't there true repentance?  No examination of our lives within the church?  Is there any conviction of sin coming from the pulpit?  Understand, this includes me as well.
I sat down late one night pondering what would be needed to have this happen where I am right now.  What is missing?  What are we really seeking?  Is it His hands, or His face?  How much are we willing to give up just to be with Him?  Bigger question is, why aren't we? 
In Deuteronomy 5, The Word gives an interesting clue of what happens from a human's view:
Deut. 5:24-26
    And ye said, Behold, the Lord our God hath shewed us his glory and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have seen this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth. [25] Now therefore why should we die? for this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any more, then we shall die. [26] For who is there of all flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as we have, and lived?

How is it that the Israelites can say that God can speak to a man and he LIVES, but if they spoke to them, they would die?  It all has to do with their heart and their willingness to change.  Moses live in riches of Egypt and he gave it all away.  The Israelites live in wretched conditions, and at times wanted to go back to bondage.  Later, God gave Moses the answer of why the people stayed their distance from Him:
Deut. 5:29
    O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!

Churches are teaching Jesus is their friend, but ignore His royalty.  He is the King of kings, and the Lord of lords.  He sits on the throne next to His Father, and we treat Him as Someone much less than who He is.  No fear of the LORD is manifested, no respect for Him at all.  Some rather answer their phone, drink their latte, or lounge around some more in the lobby while worship starts.  With what I have read from the Hebrides Revival, no entertainment was needed to attract people, no fancy conferences, just Him.  All because of two women who desired Enochs that knew God then Elijahs who want to flaunt His power. 
We are so afraid to offend people with the Truth that we are powerless to convict the world, because we have allowed more of the secular to invade our spiritual life.  I will admit these words need to impact my spirit, and it is slowly taking effect.  I have wondered if it is possible in today's churches for a revival similar to the Hebrides Revival.  Yes, I know anything is possible, so I will not rule it out but in our condition and what we are seeking, are we truly hunting for what we need or what we want?  For some reason, the church needs to be renovated in its thinking, and I am not saying I have the definitive answer, for I am seeking it as well.
One last note:  I watched a video on YouTube from a women who experienced the power of God in those islands.  She sang a song how they were all saved the old fashioned way.  Why do we seek new ways when the old way worked the best?
My philosophy is from the old Dakota proverb -
"If you are riding a dead horse, the best option is to dismount."
If what I am doing is not working, it needs to change.  Maybe the church needs to see it as well.
