Some notes from The Quickening video on transformation

PRINCIPLES OF TRANSFORMATION

Invite God – Pray 

Isaiah 62:6-7
Deeply feel inside that God wants to, and will come.

Holiness & Humility

Are we ready to die and be changed.
Is 66:2 contrite heart.
Humility is the door to unity.
God uses broken people.
Simple, sincere people.

Individual Obedience 

Not what we do, but why we do it.
Man is impressed by activity, God is impressed by obedience. 
Will encounter resistance.
Has to start with a core group of obedient people.
Always starts with a few who won’t give up. Usually two or three.

Biblical Unity

15 Theses

Monday, July 25th, 2005

by Wolfgang Simson

 

God is changing the Church, and that, in turn, will change the world. Millions of Christians around the world are aware of an imminent reformation of global proportions. They say, in effect: "Church as we know it is preventing Church as God wants it." A growing number of them are surprisingly hearing God say the very same things. There is a collective new awareness of age-old revelations, a corporate spiritual echo. In the following "15 Theses" I will summarize a part of this, and I am convinced that it reflects a part of what the Spirit of God is saying to the Church today. For some, it might be the proverbial fist-sized cloud on Elijah's sky. Others already feel the pouring rain.
