Nearly two years ago the Lord spoke to me and said, “This is now a time of Revolution, and within in two years Re-formation will follow.’

REVOLUTION SEASON

A revolution season is when God drops something or does something powerful in or around you —a word, a sudden move of hunger for Him, a strategy, a something and it sparks radical change.

It’s explosive. Fundamentally because your whole system gets a heads up that momentous change is here. Revolution seasons impact and activate in individuals, entire groups, systems, institutions and nations.

It’s the kind of season where things change surprisingly and continuously. It’s catalytic because God Himself ignites it, and you’re just trying to keep up. 

 

REFORMATION SEASON

But a reformation season? That’s different. Reformation re-forms things and people. It improves and refines for the better. Individuals, systems and institutions that have lost their way, fallen into error or abuse, are re-formed. It is uncomfortable. Messy. Transformational.

After a reformation season, things and people are never the same, they are more true, more free. 

When God begins reformation it is for restoration. Everything God does is with redemption in mind, never cancellation. This is at the heart of all He does. There is nothing God cannot restore and in the process make free and truly authentic. “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.” (Galatians 5:1)

 

THIS IS WHERE IT GETS REAL

When revolution season finishes and reformation begins, we need to understand this is where transformation really starts to muscle its way in.

Ephesians puts it like this, “..put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.” (4:24). After the catalytic power of God in the season of revolution, re-forming transforms us to hold His power and His presence authentically, with greater maturity, grace and impact.

Isaiah 43 wasn’t written to people basking in the victory of revolution. It was spoken to people in exile, tempted to turn their memories into monuments.

God was exhorting them: “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!” (43:18)

The challenge? Most of us don’t struggle to throw out the bad. We struggle to submit to being re-formed.

If we stay married to what we have known, we’ll miss the miracle God is unfolding now and the great new thing He is doing. 

Havilah Cunnington says “Faith doesn’t rehearse the past; it risks the future.” 

 

2026 IS YOUR WAKE UP CALL

You are no longer being prodded towards change. You are now in motion of re-form-ation. The new is really here. Days of denial are over.

Step forward. Don’t let comfort masquerade as faithfulness, and rejection rob you of reality. Ask Him: “What needs to be buried so You can reform me into something better?”

You were born for this. Let’s go.
