The first time God showed me my position in heaven, I saw myself at His feet, ministering there. I was face down and holding His foot in my hand…in a position of humility worshiping and ministering to Him.
It was an awe-inspiring moment.
Since then, I’ve returned to that vision over and over again. It’s wonderful every time.
Today, in quiet meditation, I returned…but this time something was different.
In the past I see myself dressed humbly. Like a servant. Today I realized that I’d been seeing myself that way, because of myself…not Him.
Today, I saw beautiful jewels adorning my hands and wrists as I sat at His feet and held them and worshiped. Then it was as if all things became brighter and I saw in color for the first time. I saw I was adorned. Then, I saw heaven in color…rainbows of mercy and waterfalls of grace were everywhere.
Rainbows of mercy and waterfalls of grace.
Have you ever seen a full rainbow? Once I saw a rainbow that was a full circle. It was fantastic. I would love to see one again. A complete promise. A rare sighting. Again, an awe-inspiring moment.
We may come to God as lowly sinners, but once we accept Jesus into our hearts, we leave as kings and queens in the kingdom. It’s hard to imagine. Harder still to grasp. But it is true.
A royal priesthood.
During this Christmas season, let’s not forget Him as we gaze upon the beauty and the lights.
I pray that the Christmas lights of this season constantly remind you of your adornments in the heavenly places.
We are royalty…we should learn to walk like we know it’s true.
May God give you more and more grace and peace as you grow in your knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord. By His divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. we have received all of this by coming to know Him, the One Who called us to Himself by means of His marvelous glory and excellence. And because of His glory and excellence, He has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share His divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires. In view of all this, make every effort to respond to God’s promises. Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and moral excellence with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with patient endurance, and patient endurance with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love for everyone. The more you grow like this, the more productive and useful you will be in your knowledge or our Lord Jesus Christ. But those who fail to develop in this way are shortsighted or blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their old sins. So, dear brothers and sisters, work hard to prove that you really are among those God has called and chosen. Do these things, and you will never fall away. Then God will give you a grand entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 2 Peter 1:2-11
