Key 3: Seeking God Wholeheartedly
Also referred to as the Seeking God Lifestyle, it comprises seven biblical principles for pursuing God to please Him and advance His kingdom.
Principle 1: Humility with the Help of Fasting
Seeking God wholeheartedly for outpourings of the Spirit happens in the context of disciplined spiritual practices. Faithfully seeking God daily, month after month, pleases Him and draws His presence and blessing.
As God’s power is released for His kingdom advancement, supernatural manifestations can occur including visitations of the Spirit, manifestations of spiritual gifts, and even demonic manifestations. Knowing and understanding these supernatural phenomena helps deepen and extend revival.
Key 6: Impacting the Three Spheres
Having gained the power of the Holy Spirit by seeking God wholeheartedly, it’s the Christian’s duty and joy to take the message of God’s love to every person on the planet and call all persons and institutions worldwide to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
The presence and power of the Holy Spirit are not enough to see rapid kingdom advancement apart from spiritual leadership. Edwards, Whitefield, Finney, Roberts, Seymour, and modern leaders like David Cho, Savenaca Nakauyaca, and John Mulinde have all exemplified this. They have had the power of the Holy Spirit but have taken specific action as Christian leaders.
The primary presenter is Matt Bennett, founder and president of Christian Union. Other presenters include Dan Knapke, an executive leader and 20-year veteran of Christian Union, Dr. Chuck Hetzler, Ph.D. in New Testament and former senior pastor, and Bishop Wolfgang Watkins, a founding senior pastor and Christian leader. Each has participated in—and helped lead—a revival. Each has also studied extensively the history of revivals in America. Additionally, to learn about how God works, each has visited other nations where revivals are currently commonplace.
