1. AWAKEN TO THE GLORY OF GOD – Ron McGatlin
AWAKEN TO THE GLORY OF GOD – Ron McGatlin
Can you imagine sleeping through a manifestation of the Glory of God?
I was somewhat mentally tired this evening when there was finally time, after a season of tiring circumstances, to sit in my recliner and open my laptop to possibly write.
I asked God what do you want me to say to your people today.
I heard, “Wake up!” “Tell my people to awaken to the light of heavenly glory.”
I then saw the current events of the attacks on Israel by Iran in a new light. God stopped hundreds of explosive drones and missiles from damaging Israel. This was a manifestation of the protective hand of God equal to many recorded biblical miracle battles.
Can you see the glory of God in all of this? But this is only a tiny particle of the GLORIOUS WORK GOD IS DOING IN THIS SITUATION. There is far more underlying this situation.
The intention of some of the perverted governmental leaders of our world who are convinced that they can rule the world better than God, planned to use this attack to draw other nations into a major world war. They hope to destroy Israel and all who honor God worldwide.
These current battles and wars are exposing a major shift in the world’s situation. GOD IS SHOWING HIMSELF STRONG and intervening on behalf of His people. This is a major message to warn those who seek to destroy God’s people worldwide.
HOWEVER, IT IS A MAJOR ENCOURAGEMENT TO GOD’S PEOPLE WORLDWIDE!
YES, GOD CAN PROTECT HIS PREPARED PEOPLE! AND YES, THE ATTACK IS REAL AND IMMANENT!
THE BIG QUESTION IS, “ARE WE PREPARED FOR THE MASSIVE WORLDWIDE ATTACK ATTEMPTING TO DESTROY ALL THAT IS OF GOD ON EARTH INCLUDING HIS PEOPLE?”
In the Spirit, I sense loud sirens, trumpets, and shouting, with flashing lights all in an intense WARNING atmosphere!
Someone has said, the best defense is a great offense. God’s goal for us is the establishment of His kingdom on earth as it is in heaven and not just for us to survive the attacks of the enemy.
The call from heaven to COME UP HERE now has a new strong commanding tone of urgency and demand. It is like, COME UP HERE NOW!!!
“After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, ‘Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.’ Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.” Revelation 4:1-2.
Our greatest and most urgent call from God is to be lifted in the Spirit to a high place of heavenly oneness in love with God.
Cast all our cares on Him and trust Him to direct and empower the hours and days of our lives here on earth.
“Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you. He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.” Psalms 55:22.
“Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:7.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5.
From the high place in the Spirit with God, we will only see the demise of the wicked who will not turn to God, it will not come near us.
“A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
Only with your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.” Psalm 91:7-8.
SPIRITUAL WORLD WAR
The wars across the world are first and foremost spiritual. At its core, it is a war for the heart (spirit and mind) of mankind.
The world and its systems are governed by what mankind believes, says, and does.
If man is led of God by the Spirit of God He will bring forth the plan and purpose of God which will release the love, wisdom, and power of God to prosper the world with life to the glory of God.
If man is led by himself without God he will bring forth other plans and purposes of spirits of darkness that will not produce love and life but will lead to disorder, lack, strife, and death.
THERE IS NO NEUTRAL GROUND
There is no neutral ground. To not be led by Spirit God is sin and condemned or cursed by the created natural systems and structures of God’s world of life on earth. Mankind refers to these as universal laws of nature. Science is man’s study of these laws and how to work with them.
RELIGION IS AN ATTEMPT AT A MIDDLE GROUND
Religion establishes systems of practices, rules, rituals, and routines in an organized attempt to reach God and to feel justified while continuing a self-focused life.
Many self-satisfying results are gratified in religion such as forgiveness of our failures and salvation to go to heaven. Think about it, that is all about us and allows us to feel much better while still living for ourselves and for the things we want and the people we like.
Sacrifice and sacrificial offerings are not pleasing to God. He prefers obedience and oneness brought about through an in-love relationship with Him. (1 Samuel 15:22).
God wants our whole life, every breath and heartbeat in love with Him. He does not want our token offerings of money. He wants all of our life as one with Him, heart, soul, and body.
This is not a sacrificed life lost from the things of this world. It is the opposite. It is a life of righteousness, peace, and joy in God and God in us. It is a life in which all things are possible and there is never lack. It is ruling and reigning with God now in this world in this life.
The religious systems of the world have missed the fullness of the purpose of Christ Jesus’ provisions for mankind and this world. Most religions have focused on mankind being saved to go to heaven and did not see that God was as concerned about bringing heaven to earth to save and restore the world.
“For God so loved the WORLD that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the WORLD to condemn the WORLD, but that the WORLD through Him might be SAVED.” John 3:16-17.
“Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10.
God’s kingdom on earth is the will of God being done on earth. Mankind is designed to bring forth the will and kingdom of God on earth.
MANKIND THE CAPSTONE OF GOD’S CREATION
Man, the capstone of God’s creation on earth has the God-given ability to decide to follow God in Christ Jesus by the Holy Spirit and bring forth the kingdom of God. Or he can choose not to follow God and to follow himself as his own self-made false god. Thus, replacing the one true God with himself as his own God.
Any god other than the one true God is a false god and opens the way for Satan to send evil spirits of darkness to blind the minds of people to truth and fill their hearts with lies that lead to disorder, hardships, and death.
The one true God always brings light and life that destroys the works of darkness.
THIS IS THE SEASON – THE DAY OF GOD
A new people of God are coming forth. A people without religion, sold out to God, in love with Him, and walking in His glory. They are one with God and full of His presence. They are now becoming the manifest sons and daughters of God.
They are humble without pride, filled with love, power, and wisdom to do the will of God on earth. They are continually praising and worshiping their God in their hearts and lives.
These simple people are now being birthed and growing up among us. They are the common people and are not singled out or set apart to be just an officer or leader in a religious system.
This is why the enemy is trying to kill the babies and every person who honors God. Abortion is an effort to kill these people before birth. The enemy is doing all that he can to kill the people of the kingdom and stop their multiplication on earth.
Because these kingdom people exist and are growing in number among us God now has a people to agree with him for the kingdom of heaven, the kingdom of God to come forth on earth.
If God established a kingdom on earth without this growing remnant’s agreement, He would break His word of giving mankind dominion on earth. God’s word cannot be broken and will endure forever. (Genesis 1:26-28).
“Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart, having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever, because
‘All flesh is as grass,
And all the glory of man as the flower of the grass.
The grass withers,
And its flower falls away,
But the word of the Lord endures forever.’” 1Peter 1:22-25.
The sons of God will remain unknown by most of the world and there will not be notable events to expose them until the time is right. God is not about the business of returning or restoring man’s current or past structures of life and governance. It is from the ashes of the past that the beauty of the glory of God in and with mankind is manifested.
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me,
Because the Lord has anointed Me
To preach good tidings to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives,
And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord,
And the day of vengeance of our God;
To comfort all who mourn,
To console those who mourn in Zion,
To give them beauty for ashes,
The oil of joy for mourning,
The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
That they may be called trees of righteousness,
The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” Isaiah 61:1-3.
“And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:13.
