As we prayed this morning, the anointing came into the room. It was big and vast, like a cloud, a resting presence. Then I saw Pastor (he was not physically present) on the pulpit and he was receiving and giving Words to the people. This presence, this cloud, these Words are how people are going to make it through the 'clutter, the distractions, the attacks of the enemy. I knew immediately it is directly correlated to paise and worship. The cloud has to to rest and people have to enter the cloud to receive what they need.
Then as we prayed I saw a mountain. The Holy Ghost reminded me of the scripture in Exodus 18, when the people gathered at the base of the mountain. They saw the consuming fire of God, the smoke, the lightening...and they backed away. Their reponse was they didn't want to hear from God first hand (intamicy), they told Moses to talk to God and then he (Moses) could talk to them. They were comfortable at the base of the mountain, their footing was sure there. The mountain was an unknown and what they saw (fire, smoke, lightening) made them unsure, uncomfortable. I said to the Holy Ghost: But the people could 'not' go up the mountain. The Holy Ghost responded: But now they can, because of the blood, but the base of the mountain is comfortable, it is more sure to them. They want more, but they want it on their own terms.
I immeidately remembered the dream I had...climbing the mountain...and the mountain had what appeared to be a concrete pathway, like a sidewalk, it was a 'sure' path. (I shared this dream on 12/26/10 at RFC, in the message 'can you see past the clutter')
