Reformation: The Outgrowth of Revival “For both He who Sanctifies {Jesus Christ} and those who are being Sanctified {You and Me} are all of One, for which reason He {Jesus Christ} is not ashamed to call them Brethren” [Hebrews 2:11, NKJV]. Revival is an Ongoing Process. Daily our Lord invites us into the Joy of His Presence. Just as Israel was nourished by the manna that fell from heaven, Jesus spreads out a Spiritual banquet for us every day. Daily our souls are Nourished, Our Spirits Refreshed, and Our Hearts Revived as we Kneel Quietly before His Throne, Meditating upon His Word. True spiritual Renewal leads to a Change in Our Thought Patterns, Habits, and Lifestyle; it’s what we call a “REFORMATION.” “You Therefore, Beloved, since you know this Beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own Steadfastness, being Led away with the error of the Wicked; but Grow in Grace and Knowledge of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the Glory both Now and Forever Amen” [2 Pet. 3:17, 18, NKJV]. The term REFORMATION simply refers to this “Growing in Grace”; it is Allowing the Holy Spirit to Align Every Aspect of our Lives with God’s will. In those areas where we have Drifted from Obedience, Revival Reawakens our Longings to Please God. Reformation Leads us to make the Challenging Choices to Surrender Anything that Stands between us and Him.
