Night 32 - Unquenchable Worship & A Holy Vision!

Habakuk 3:17-18

Though the cherry trees don't blossom
   and the strawberries don't ripen,
Though the apples are worm-eaten
   and the wheat fields stunted,
Though the sheep pens are sheepless
   and the cattle barns empty,
I'm singing joyful praise to God.
   I'm turning cartwheels of joy to my Savior God.
Counting on God's Rule to prevail,
   I take heart and gain strength.
I run like a deer.
   I feel like I'm king of the mountain! 

These are the verses that got us started last night.  Pastor Carol shared this passage and how it's easy to get caught up in the day and sometimes hard to shake it off and be ready to worship.  What she didn't know was that those were the exact verses the Holy Spirit had prompted me to share, so we knew God was speaking!

We are all faced with a choice when it comes to worship.  We can either fix our eyes on our circumstance, whether good or bad.  Or we can fix our eyes on God.  

We are determined to be unquenchable worshippers.  Those who refuse to be discouraged or distracted in our desire to glorify God.  We sang, we praised and we exalted His Name.

Later in the evening, we were drawn to Exodus 34, which speaks of Moses and his desire to see God's glory.  

2 Corinthians 2:18 tells us that we who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory are being transformed into His likeness with ever increasing glory which comes from the Lord, who is the spirit.

That's our desire!  Every time we draw near to Him and His glory shines on us, we look more and more like Him.

As we continued worshipping, a vision was given to Apostle Tim Sheets.  He was taken into the throneroom and Jesus stood and said, "Come here, I want to show you the new robes."  In the vision, he saw a large pile of robes that had been discarded.  He then went to a room that had the most beautiful robes he had ever seen.  They were a gorgeous purple color and were trimmed around the collar in a beautiful blue.  There was a line of people as far as he could see of ones waiting to receive their new robe.  The Lord gave the revelation that the purple color represented a new King's anointing and the blue color represented that this new anointing would be under the headship of the Holy Spirit.

We then prayed that we would step into this new anointing.  A prevailing theme throughout UR120 has been that God is doing something new and He's looking for those who will discard the old garments and put on the new.

We're ready God!  You are doing a new thing and we want to be part of it!  All glory and honor be unto You!
