As I was praying the Lord anointed me to pray for His glory to fill the Earth. During these intercessions my I-Pod malfunctioned and began to play Psalms 97 vs 1-6, which is the scripture quoted in the middle of Michael W Smith’s song, Open the Floodgates of Heaven. The verses describe the power and might of the Lord, and the ensuing effects that His glory has on the observers! Right after these verses were quoted the man began to powerfully intercede for the Lord’s glory to come in power!
I was instantly reminded of how the Lord had shown me during a prior intercessory prayer time that His glory is going to pour out of His bride in the approaching days, where when Christians touch the ‘lost’ the lost come into contact with the King of kings. Rivers of Living Water will flow from each believer and will flood the world with Light. The world will see the manifest presence and glory of Jesus, and as a result many will believe!
While recollecting the above prophetic sense, I was filled with another awesome feeling. I think that there will be numerous times when the Glory of God will descend in power during times of worship. When I say power, I mean like we have not experienced before! Where He will cloak church services with such intense Glory that people will be healed, delivered, restored, and saved without even talking to another person! Where direct contact with the living God who created the cosmos is common!
The sense that He has given me is that He is coming back for His Earth. He is coming soon, and wants us to prepare like we have never prepared before. Time is short. The needed preparations are many. I believe He is looking for a people who will ‘house’ His glory. He is looking for a humble people who are lovesick for Him and for the lost in this world. He is looking for a people who will obey His calling regardless of the cost. He is looking for a people that won’t take control of their destinies but will rather die to themselves so that they can live in Him. He is looking for these people so that He can fashion an End Times army that will usher in His Glory like never before seen!
He is coming, but first He is calling. He is calling us to stand up as Samuel did, and to say, “Speak Lord for I am listening.”
