We need a REFORMATION, not a REVIVAL...

During our prayer time today, God spoke several things to us.

Ms. Candy spoke that we do not need another Revival - revivals burn out, we need a Reformation.

We (Candy, Jami and Vanessa) discussed this for a few minutes following prayer time.

I came home and looked up the word Reformation - here is what I found.

Reformation - the act of being Reformed

So I looked up the word Reformed -

Reformed - an adjective -
1.  amended by removal of faults and abuses
2.  improved in conduct and morals

So what does this mean?  For God to "reform" us and the church (His body of believers) we need to allow Him to take away our faults (various sins we hold still) and our abuses (whatever addictions we have that tether us to the world), then our conduct and moral compass will reflect HIM and HIS likeness.

This is a purging and filling............ we do not need to be "worked up" - we need to be "worked out" !!!

We need to be kneaded and stretched like clay - so that our Creator - our Sculptor, can fashion us into the mighty women of God that we are called to be.

This brings me to the 2nd thing we discussed - Chess (Jami is still thinking through this one) - but we are being prepared and set into position, to wage war - battle for the kingdom and the world.  We have to be strategic in all we do.  Without being REFORMED, how can we be ready to do what God is aligning us up for?

Get ready Sister of Battle - have no doubt - we are being prepared for this time.  There is a call for all of us, to pray and to wage war on the enemy of this world!
