Over the last few weeks, I have really begun searching my heart for clear direction for my personal walk for what lies ahead. Spring time means so many different things, but as a Follower of Jesus, I have always looked at it as an opportune time to do a Spring cleaning Spiritually. Often this only takes place in the natural around the house. This past week while in Orlando, I encounter the Holy Spirit and connected with Him in such a way, it leaves me longing for a deeper Revelation of Jesus. As I worshiped at NCAOnline.net with Kathryn Scott and at the ONETHING conference, I found myself burdened with a deeper desire for intimate prayer and worship. I think we can all understand the concept of wanting more. In the natural we tend to do that very easily. But how often does it happen with our relationship with God in a way that makes you stop and think, I must have more....
It is only natural for believers to walk through different seasons with God, but I sense this spiritual journey I am about to walk on will be much more difficult than one's traveled before. This road is going to take discipline and sacrifice. The words Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord God Almighty continue to ring in my spirit. He is calling you and me to walk in His Holiness. We are already Righteous through the Son, but He is calling us to a deeper revelation of Holiness. When we do this, we walk closer than the day before. I know this is where I will find the strength for the daily battles life throws my way! I believe through diligently seeking Holiness, new songs will arise, the Word will come alive in my heart and intimacy will be stirred again between my Lord and me.
The concept of Eternity is sometimes hard to grasp, but with a vivid description of God from Revelation 4, it's gonna be worth it... What are you willing to sacrifice to have more of Jesus?
Worship in Heaven
1 Then as I looked, I saw a door standing open in heaven, and the same voice I had heard before spoke to me like a trumpet blast. The voice said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must happen after this.”2 And instantly I was in the Spirit, and I saw a throne in heaven and someone sitting on it.3 The one sitting on the throne was as brilliant as gemstones—like jasper and carnelian. And the glow of an emerald circled his throne like a rainbow.4 Twenty-four thrones surrounded him, and twenty-four elders sat on them. They were all clothed in white and had gold crowns on their heads.5 From the throne came flashes of lightning and the rumble of thunder. And in front of the throne were seven torches with burning flames. This is the sevenfold Spirit of God.6 In front of the throne was a shiny sea of glass, sparkling like crystal. In the center and around the throne were four living beings, each covered with eyes, front and back.7 The first of these living beings was like a lion; the second was like an ox; the third had a human face; and the fourth was like an eagle in flight.8 Each of these living beings had six wings, and their wings were covered all over with eyes, inside and out. Day after day and night after night they keep on saying,
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty— the one who always was, who is, and who is still to come.”
Rev 4:1-8 (NLT)
