Nov. 17, 2013–Entering The Glory Realm

golden gloryI would not consider myself in anyway an expert in the glory realm.  I have tasted and seen that the Lord is good and I know that His goodness and mercy does endure forever.  He has been so good to me and the witness of His spirit and grace in my life is enough.  As long as I have His Spirit, I can do all things.

Over the last number of months I have seen God do some incredible signs and wonders.  To be honest I have wrestled with them.  I don’t always know why God does the things that He does but He is awesome and He is good and when He chooses to move in a certain way it is for good that He does it.

I am more than certain that when God moved in ancient Egypt and devastation seemed to overtake the land, many cried out wondering why God was doing what He was doing.  They could not foresee the destiny that awaited the great people of Israel and the Messiah that would rise from within her.  They did not know that God had divine purposes in store for this slave nation.

When God begins to move in the glory, it is to set people free.  Psalm 24 says, “Who is this King of Glory? And then it answers “The Lord strong and mighty.  The Lord mighty in battle.”  When the Glory resides with man there is a sense of peace, joy and goodwill.  There is a liberty that is hard to put into words, but when experienced is completely satisfying.

I learned many years ago that “where the spirit of the Lord is there is freedom.”(2 Corinthians 3:17).  I remember in the early days of revival in Kinburn, Mark Redner and I learned the principle of pressing into and past the obstacles that were in the spirit over that little church.  We knew that when we worshipped the Lord in the face of oppression, His Spirit would come and set the captives free.

You see when we worship the Lord, the Glory of God enters into our environments.  It comes with a liberty that you cannot put into words.  When people encounter His Spirit, obstacles have a way of disappearing.  The enemy over their minds is silenced.  Oppression ceases.  Bodies and minds are healed.

And in the place of this glory, miracles, signs and wonders take place.  God explodes and manifestations of glory begin to enter into the natural realm.  The supernatural and the natural worlds collide and what is in heaven comes to earth. 

The streets are paved with Gold in heaven.  Gold is the common ore and not a commodity.  When the Spirit of God manifests, all kinds of Gold comes to earth.  This is my experience.  You see Gold is like the fireworks of heaven.  It just appears because heaven is near.  People are touched by heaven and touched by Gold.  It is an amazing thing to witness.

I will not grow bored with seeing the glory of God manifest.  I feel like a child when I see these crazy signs and wonders.  Such joy enters my heart.  My prayer for you is that you too shall become like a child in the face of God’s manifest Glory.  I pray that you will become a conduit of that glory and that everywhere you wander, His shadow shall follow you.

I pray that you will have a golden shadow of glory.  May marvelous signs and wonders follow your life in any form that He chooses.  May no darkness be inside of you but only the glory of God.  May great joy and peace follow your life everywhere you wander.  May faces beam with glory and may lives be healed and changed as you advance toward your destiny.
