The Kingdom is ever abounding and ever expanding. Much of what we begin seeing and discerning comes out of the relationship to who and what God begins to illuminate through new revelation. In the first glory, much of our revelation is heavenly, or of a higher realm. This speaks of Revelation 4:1 where John hears the first voice which sounded as a trumpet. The voice spoke to him to "come up here and I will show what must take place after these things". It's here that the Lord first appears to us through divine revelation. As we worship him, we become as the one we worship. The trumpet is associated with prophetic ministry. As we continually yield ourselves to the inner working of this ministry in our lives, we suddenly find ourselves in new dimensions. This is the first glory!
In the next glory, revelation comes through regeneration. In other words, the Kingdom now comes again. The Kingdom comes again and again to expand us through relationship with what or who God begins manifesting himself to us through. What we see is "born" out of relationship with the order that God manifests himself to us through. This is the regeneration! What has already been born again becomes born again and again each time that the Kingdom brings expansion. This is also what is understood as the Third Day of Christ. From faith that is embodied by one, to what manifests the Kingdom on earth through a greater body. A personal, ongoing revelation of Jesus Christ in relationship to our lives will build us on foundations that parallel what is written in scripture. Even as we build our lives on these foundations, the greater truths that God leads us into will also build on these same foundations. Greater truths lead to the greater works of ministry.
Nehemiah 9:23
23 “You made their sons numerous as the stars of heaven,
And You brought them into the land
Which You had told their fathers to enter and possess.
Which You had told their fathers to enter and possess.
The vision that God has given me of this time is of a simple drawing of a house. Within the house, I was shown a horizontal line that appeared in the middle of the framework of the house. This horizontal line reveals new horizons of faith. Through the new horizon that begins to appear, we understand that what we build through faith also builds us in the expanded places. In the "Inner House", Christ has been formed in us. Inwardly, the ministries and gifts are present through an inner work even as the same are being poured out to others. The inner working of spirit life through the ministries causes us to be mindful of the water that we drink and the air that we breath. Prophetic ministry brings change to our atmosphere as pure living waters speak life. There is personal responsibility to guard our heart against the things that would defile. In the previous season, we entered into the ministry house (the church) to begin to prophesy of what is in heaven. In this day, "the Ministry House" is formed in us and we are continually bringing heaven to earth through the knowledge that we have of the Kingdom.
In my vision, a tree that was full of fruit appeared within the house. Even as I knew this to be the Tree of Life, the Lord is using this to manifest himself in his people in this season. In the previous day, what was built within "the Ministry House" was on everything familiar. Much of our spiritual life within a local church environment will continue to equip the saints in the gifts and ministries. In the new day, we will need to receive of the Kingdom by revelation in order to release it to others. The sons that are spoken of in Nehemiah 9:23 are the fruit that begin to appear out on the branches, farthest from the roots (fathers).
In my vision, the trunk of the tree and the roots appeared within the lower region of the house where the new horizon was bringing division. The branches and the fruit appeared through the upper part of the house.
Where the roots recognize the fruit in order to bring relationship to the whole house, the Third Day of Christ becomes manifest. In the multiplication, the vertical alignment shifts so that what prospers us brings increase through the greater fruitfulness. Kings and Priests, who are after the order of Melchizedek, share in this alike and rise in stature together through mutual relationship.
In the previous day, much of our understanding of Kingdom relationship came through being "covered" within the house. In this new day, the Kingdom will uncover and unveil it's greatest secrets. Where Christ appears in his glory, we will appear with him as the Kingdom continues to advance in the earth.
Parable of the Lamp
Luke 8:17
17For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
The third glory, or the Third Day of Christ is demonstrated or manifest from what has been revealed; from revelation to manifestation!
John 14:21
21He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Kingdom blessings and divine favor as we each go from glory to glory!
Shalom,
