Often, when I tell people that God is sending a revival of His holiness, they associate it with something harsh and negative.

When I speak about holiness, they imagine that I am speaking of living according to a legalistic set of norms created by man about the clothes and of hairstyles.

Sadly, they think this way because in the past the Church has defined holiness as simply as one to abstain from smoking cigarettes or how a woman should dress or not watching worldly shows.

This is not true holiness!

The Bible does not define holiness as an  attempt on the part of man, of living in accordance with certain rules and regulations created by man.

What He wants is to form Christ within us.

Only His Spirit can do this refining work.

In His compassion, God hugs His Church with His arm and says:.

“ I want to protect you.
I do not want you to keep falling down.
I do not want any more lows in this spiritual war.
I do not want to see my workers for God destroyed.
I love you and suffer when they remain destroyed.”

In Summary, He wants His Church to rise up in victory.

To fight against the traps of the devil.

To know that He is with her every day up to the end of the world.

That she knows that He died on the cross at Calvary to present her to Himself as a Powerful and Glorious church, spotless and blameless.

Remember – Without Holiness no one will see the Lord.
