Vision:
Given on 3-2-11
While driving into Altus, OK, I felt the Holy Spirit impressing me to ask the LORD for the vision. This is that vision and outcome.
I first seen a circular shape which also had density. Inside of the circle shape were many different shapes which actually were made of stained glass of different colors. A bright white light came from above the circle and below it I could see some of the light shining through. Not all of the stained glass shapes were allowing light to come through. The circular shape was then gathered together as you would do a bag and tied at the top. It was a solid in that the center was not hollow once brought together.
The next part of the vision : there was a brick wall which suddenly began to crumble and fall to many pieces.
Interpretation given:
The circle represents unity, unbroken and whole. This is the body of Christ. The stained glass shapes represent multiple levels of Christ. First, the individual believer, who is the beauty of Gods creation through His Son, Jesus Christ. Fully given all the potential needed for survival from the day of Spiritual birth. Secondly, the church, given all ministries needed to promote Jesus. Third, is a regional authority, which begins to involve higher levels of angelic involvement. Fourth, is the state-wide authority of the church and involves more government. Fifth, is the national level, in which the Body of Christ has more protective involvement. Sixth, is the earthly realm of spiritual battle.
It is noted that the light did not shine through all of the stained glass shapes. Simply put, we are not letting the Spirit of God do what is needed through us and the lack of Truth is occurring at all the mentioned levels. It came to me that the larger scale will be affected last. There is a heavy correlation between vision and Truth during this hour we currently live. The scripts the Lord gave me during this are:
Genesis 1: 2-4
Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness covered the surface of the watery depths, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Then God said, “ Let there be light, and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and God separated the light from darkness.
In the vision, the light came from above and is from God. It was given to pass through man and provide life for others. It was a pure, white light and just like God, it had no darkness in it. It was present to make the will of God known to mankind. To give us a chance, to make us separate from darkness. The dark is consuming the light in some instances. You see, God makes this same light available to all men, but what man allows into his own heart will determine whether or not the light will flow through him. Some just absorbed the light and didn’t reflect it at all. I hear again God saying, through His Spirit, “ Let there be Light, the Light of all men”.
1John 1:5-7
Now this is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light, and there is absolutely no darkness in Him. If we say, “ We have fellowship with Him“ , and walk in darkness, we are lying and are not practicing the Truth. But, if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.
Again, we see that light and darkness are totally separated. To commune with God, we are called “ out of darkness” and “into the light”. It is not just sin that can separate us from God, but the lack of the Holy Spirit of God! The Spirit of Truth! We are to walk “ In Him, in His Light”. The vision had light attempting to penetrate the stained glass shapes, sort of like a kaleidoscope. In a kaleidoscope, the light comes from an outside source, passes through the colored lenses and the eye sees its beautiful colors. In this case, the light was good and the eye was present, but the lenses were faulty. What do you think the lenses represent here? We are those lenses. I had a good friend who was a stained glass maker. She made me a kaleidoscope once. It was beautiful! But without light, that beautiful artwork would’ve been nothing. If the lenses were covered in grime and dirt, it again, would be nothing.
We, the new creatures, are those lenses. Moving and working together to create an awesome picture even more breath taking than the Northern Lights.
Next, the brick walls, which were falling!! This is the hindrance we are facing. And it is falling! That which divides us is falling. That which separates us is moving out of our way. That which has blocked the Light, is leaving.
