We believe that a ReAwakening of the church in Scotland and of Scotland as a whole, all peoples, should be the goal of all believers that desire to see the Kingdom of God advanced in this nation.
We know that these ReAwakenings have happened here before, both in Scotland and in the UK. Historically, these times were marked by:
1.People, or groups of people, who called their generation back to a foundation of biblical truth. To becoming a people who were centred on the word and lived it out.
2.A burden of intercessory prayer which led to groups of believers interceding for their peers, generation, and nation to return or turn to Jesus in belief and repentance.
3.The church refocusing on the mission of Jesus to such and extent that thousands were saved.
The prominent men and women at the centre of these movements of God were sensitive to His calling and were marked by obedience. For it is clear that in order for a ReAwakening to occur, it requires a movement of God's spirit on a huge scale, both convicting and bringing repentance, leading to a people who are committed to following Jesus no matter the cost.
So what is the ReAwakening conference all about?
Knowing what we do about past ReAwakenings, we are looking to lay a foundation for a Reawakening in Scotland. No one movement, church or conference can do this in isolation but we look to be part of the picture of what God is doing to prepare this nation for a ReAwakening.
With that in mind, we are running the ReAwakening conference on 21st February 2009 in order to reach young and future church leaders within the student generation. It is essentially a one-day conference with a free Friday evening session (20th February). There will be 3 main sessions focussing on the three points highlighted above, The Word, Intercessory Prayer and Mission, as well as being a people of holy character. We have some great speakers including Brian Ingraham and Hugh Halter a world authority on reforming how the Church (globally) approaches mission, and author of The Tangible Kingdom (http://www.tangiblekingdom.com/)
We hope to spell out clearly what it will take to be a people who are ready to do our part in bringing about a ReAwakening in Scotland, and to pray with perseverance for God to move in a way that we have never seen in our lifetime.
