What Heaven is Saying Today
The presence was so strong and heavy in the Worship Room this morning that I was finding it increasingly difficult to stand. As I went face down and began to pray in the Spirit, I was suddenly carried in a vision to a village in Japan. Suddenly everything came to a halt. I saw people looking into the heavens as if seeking a sign or waiting for something awesome to manifest. The Spirit let me know that their hopes and prayers are about to be answered, but they may not be fully prepared for how it manifests. Then I had a series of short visions about people who were making false judgments and condemning others. This was very displeasing to the Lord. The Spirit said that they were judging and prophesying from their own feelings rather than speaking what He was saying. Next, I saw several places where people had gathered to protest against what they perceived to be injustices. The Spirit told me that many of them didn’t even know what they were protesting, but filled with anger and a sense of injustice they were about to break out in a violent protest. This was very displeasing to the Lord. The Spirit led me to Luke 16:15, “And He (Jesus) said to them, ‘You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God.’” I pondered this and wondered if anyone who needed to hear this could actually receive it? It suddenly occurred to me that most (if not all) of us have made judgments from our own feelings. Perhaps we all need to be in repentance today and seek to please the Lord rather than coddle our own feelings. What do you think? In the weighty presence of our Holy God this morning, it seemed as if our best intentions fall short of the purity He is seeking from us.
