An
Encounter with His Holiness
January 2001
January 2001
- Since Christmas day 2000, I have had 3 prophetic experiences that I would like to share. I believe they are all relevant to the Body of Christ at large. On Christmas day last year I was given a dream in which I walked into this white light room. The only thing in the room was a fireplace. I walked over to the fireplace where my son's girlfriend was 3-4 feet in front of it with soapsuds on her head, while she was in deep worship. I believe this represents the washing of our minds to line up with the mind of Christ. I believe the Lord is beginning to do this, especially with the Joshua generation. Washing their minds from the old and shifting them into the new. Worship is the soap that will birth believers through the washing along with renewing of our minds. I then walked over to my son who was actually in the fireplace, crumpled up under the power of God. He was so far gone under the power of Jesus, and he had the same soapsuds on his face. The Lord is bringing this generation up close and personal and He is washing their face from the things they have been beholding. Whatever we behold is the essence we give off to others. The Lord's out shinning will be so heavy on our faces, that we may feel we need to cover them like Moses. But on the horizon before us is the Lord arising and appearing in His people before He comes for His people. Then I looked up into the flue of the fireplace and I saw fire. This was not a gentle campfire or soft fireplace fire. This was what I would imagine it would be if one stood a few feet from the base of the shuttle when it takes off! This was the raw holiness and power of a Living God. I moved my son out of the fireplace and got into it myself. I stuck my hands up into the rocket fire blast and immediately I was so convicted of my sinfulness in comparison to the Lord's holiness. I began to scream and cry, 'Lord, I am sorry for all my sins, for everything I have ever done that was wrong'. I felt like Isaiah when he cried 'Woe is me, I am undone! For I am a man of unclean lips!' Then I asked my son if he were going back to college and he said 'No, mom I can't I have been changed, my life will never be the same'. Intellectual thinking, or man's wisdom had been burned out of his mind and he didn't need 'college intellectual wisdom" any longer, he had the true mind of Christ. Fear of the Lord (holiness) is the beginning of Wisdom. I believe we are entering into a time of REVOLUTION for the church-it is not to be a season of 'business as usual'. Ever since the visitation, whenever I have spoken about the cross or the holiness of the Lord, the actual Presence of Holiness comes into the room and people either yield to it to burn dross, or they run from it to hide like Adam in the garden. The Holiness of Christ is being released in the church-run into Him and get delivered, don't run from Him and end up like Ananias and Sapphira.
