The Calvary Road by Roy Hession
The message of this book comes out of revival and has been used of God in many parts of the world to lead people to experience that which lies at the heart of all revivals. It very simply, but deeply deals with (amongst others) the following aspects : brokenness, walking in the light, conviction of sin, confession of sin, cleansing, cups running over, the way of fellowship, the highway of holiness, revival in the home, the power of the blood of the Lamb, and the question: "Are you willing to be a servant?", etc. In it Roy Hession says, "Revival is just the life of the Lord Jesus poured into human hearts", and, "To be broken is the beginning of Revival."

Humility : the Beauty of Holiness by Andrew Murray
This precious little book was written in the spirit of true revival and from a real relationship with God. In it we find the key and the secret of life, revival, and our relationship with God. Consider some of the statements from it : "His humility is our salvation. His salvation is our humility"; "it is not sin that humbles most, but grace"; "here is the path to the higher life. Down, lower down!"; "It is only by the indwelling of Christ in His divine humility that we become truly humble"; "humility towards men will be the only sufficient proof that our humility before God is real"; "Humility is the bloom and the beauty of holiness"; "Humility must lead us to die to self"; "Only humility leads to perfect death; Only death perfects humility"; "The highest lesson a believer has to learn is humility"; "Pride must die in you, or nothing of heaven can live in you", etc. This book can help us (through God) to pray, "Lord Jesus! May our Holiness be perfect Humility! Let Thy perfect Humility be our Holiness!"

Repentance : The Joy-filled Life by Basilea Schlink
This book shows how John the Baptist, Simon Peter (on the day of Pentecost), Jesus himself (when he started to preach and when he gave his message to the seven churches as recorded in the book of Revelation) all proclaimed: "Repent!". The author explains what repentance is, the need for repentance, motives stimulating towards repentance, its priority in every person’s life, it’s effects (on a personal and national level), as well as (very importantly) the way to repentance and the main obstacles in coming back to God in repentance. She writes that an ongoing repentance is the hallmark of a Christian and the basis for true joy.

We would see Jesus by Roy Hession
In the preface the author writes : "This is a book that seeks to be simply about the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. (It) is somewhat of an amplification of ‘The Calvary Road’. Seeing Him we are convicted of sin, broken, cleansed, filled with the Spirit, set free from bondage, and revived. Each aspect of Christian experience is made real in us just by seeing Him. He is both the Blessing we seek and the easily accessible Way to that blessing." Some of the chapters deal with what is means to see Jesus as the purpose of life, as all we need, as the Truth, as the Door, as the Way, as the End, and seeing Him for others. This book reveals Jesus in a most beautiful and reviving way.

"When I saw Him": where revival begins by Roy Hession
This book was also born out of the East-African revival in the 20th century. The author says, "In the following pages I invite the reader to look with me at four men of old (in one of the cases in question, a group of men) who saw the Lord, and at the effects the visions had on them. I do so because the particular revelations of the Lord they had are the same revelations of Him we need, and when we have them they will have the same effect on us as they had on them."

The Christian’s Victory : how to overcome sin by Basilea Schlink
How can we overcome sin? Asked this question, the author sets about prescribing Biblical "spiritual medicine", dealing one by one with 45 different sins which can mar the Christian’s life, helping us to recognise them in ourselves, and pointing out the costly remedy. The original title of the book speaks for itself : "You will never be the same"! She speaks clearly about sin in Christians, the importance of hating sin, confessing sin (bringing it into the light), and the way to victory over it. The book is very practical, truthful, straightforward and helpful.

Reaching your World for Christ , or "The State of the Church" by Andrew Murray
This is one of the most important books that Andrew Murray wrote. He personally read it repeatedly, even to his old age. It deals with the state of the church, and therefore with the spiritual state of each Christian. He shows how the state of the home church determines the state of the mission church, and how the state of the church is determined by the state of the members (the Christians). He makes an urgent heartfelt plea that we’ll not say "peace, peace" when there’s no peace, that we’ll see our lack of spiritual power, the lack of the supernatural power of God in our lives and churches, the lack of true conversions, the lack of prayer, the lack of holiness, the lack of revival, and the resultant slack obedience to "go and make disciples of all the nations". He also points out the remedy, through the valley of decision, through conviction, contrition, confession, and consecration, and through prayer and the supernatural working of the Holy Spirit of God - filling his children to overflowing.

The Holy War by John Bunyan
Few books have shown me Christ as this one. Written by the author of "The Pilgrim’s Progress", it shows in allegorical way, the battle that rages for the town of Mansoul. El Shaddai built this town (of man’s soul) for him and his Son, Emmanuel. They put a wall around the city that can be entered only through one of the sense-gates (eye-gate, ear-gate, etc, as the gates are opened from within. The heart-castle in the centre of the town was for them to inhabit, to the benefit or the inhabitants and the glory of El Shaddai. Diabolus and his evil hordes seek though to capture the city, break down El Shaddai’s image and kingdom, enslave the inhabitants and establish their reign of darkness. Many important principles of spiritual warfare and repentance and godly living are vividly portrayed.

Beauty for Ashes : the Christ-life for the self-life by Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen turns the light of Scripture on to cherished notions of the Christian life. He shows that there is only one way to be a Christian as God intends : to die to self, to be broken, to be empty, and to long for God to live in us in his fullness. Nothing must take the place of God in our lives not even his own gifts to us. In this book he describes the corruption of the self-life, the pathway to the Christ-life (as being broken and emptied), and the beauty of the Christ-life.

Radiating His Glory : the Spirit-filled life by Zac Poonen
This book shows that we are called to radiate God’s glory (the glory of His humility, His holiness, His love, His life), but not through soulish efforts or imitation. God wants to quicken our spirits, so that we actually partake of His nature and radiate His glory to the world. We can fulfil His purpose in this world, if we’ll live only in the will of God, by the power of God, and for the glory of God.

The Father Heart of God by Floyd McClung
In his work with Youth With A Mission (in Afghanistan, Amsterdam’s red light district, and across the world), Floyd McClung has met many people who suffer from deep emotional hurts and fears.

In this book he shows how our relationship with our earthly father (or the lack of it), can influence our relationship with our heavenly Father. He describes the wounded heart of man, the father heart of God, the broken heart of God, the waiting loving Father, why and how God heals wounded hearts, the role of fathers in the Lord, and more.

The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan
Charles Spurgeon said that he had read this book more than a hundred times! It is a spiritual classic that describes (with a very rich reference to Biblical pictures and verses) the journey of the Christian (Pilgrim) from the City of Destruction (the world) to the Celestial City (heaven). The temptations, trials, triumphs, failures, friends and enemies (and much more) he meets on the road are similar to what every Christian may face in his own journey to heaven. The second part of the book deals with the journey his wife (Christiana) and children undertook (afterwards) in following him.

Shade of His Hand by Oswald Chambers
This excellent book contains talks by Oswald Chambers on Ecclesiastes, in which he shows that everything is temporary, vain, unfulfilling, transitory, and unable to fill the last aching abyss of the human heart, except a personal passionate relationship with Jesus Christ. They are a verbatim report of what really were the last lectures he ever delivered. He interprets the message of Ecclesiastes as : Life is not worth living apart from Redemption!

Approved unto God, including Facing Reality by Oswald Chambers
Christian workers need to be disciplined disciples. “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed”(2 Tim 2:15), makes a big demand upon a worker for God, and these God-given messages help us to meet that Divine requirement. One clear note in them is “that the servant of God has to go through the experience of things before he is allowed to go through a study of them”. Here there is as much insistence upon spiritual fitness as right mentality, and upon intellectual discipline as upon spiritual well-being. The worker for God is a unity, spirit, soul and body, and needs to be brought by God’s grace and by personal choice and concentration into a harmoniously working whole.
