Notes from the Glory Realm: A Devotional

By Jacques Grant

Psalm 91 begins by saying, They who dwell in the secret place of the most High, shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. They, meaning us, who dwell (live, reside, stay) in the secret place. The secret placeGods most holy place, the Holy of Holiesshall live, play, remain, work, raise families, enjoy friends, and love one another under the shadow or covering or umbrella or become insulated and/or engulfed by the Almighty Father of creation himself!

What a wonderful thought, to be able to be embraced and covered in this security and understanding and, in these boundaries, live a most blessed, prosperous, and favored life! But how? How do we remain? How do we dwell? How do we abide and rest in the glory realm of Gods graciousness and favor? The author of this book, through his own personal journey with God, attempts to help the reader enjoy the most wonderful existence and presence this world and this life have to offerthe secret place, the glory realm.

Notes From The Glory Realm

Isaiah 60: 1-3

Our lives are made up of many seasons. Each one, significant and necessary in order for us to become the children of God John 1:12… let each season run it’s course and pray to know when a season is ending and a new season is coming. Don’t be afraid to let go of an ending season and embrace the new with anticipated expectancy!

Beloved,

There are different seasons in everybody’s life. There is a time and purpose to everything under Heaven, Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 tells us there is always a season going on in our lives. No matter what season you might be finding yourself in right now, just know it will be for just a little while a new season is just around the corner. The key to change is in knowing this and anticipating a new season. Begin speaking out of your mouth the season that you want to be in. Speak out exactly what you’s like your season to look like. We can learn from the current season we are in, and in making the right choices, we can rejoice for the season we are about to be in even if it’s not a current reality. Remember faith is the substance of thing’s hoped for, and the evidence of thing’s not yet seen. Hebrew’s 11:1. We, who are in Christ Jesus know that all of our steps are ordered of God. So, in whatever season we find ourselves, we can embrace it, learn from it, and trust God that the same spirit that brought us into this season, is faithful to not leave us here, but will take us on to the next season. He did not bring us out this far, only to leave us.

He will accomplish what he has spoken over us. We need but to trust, and obey. Like the verse in John chapter 2, when the people at the wedding feast ran out of wine, and Jesus’ first miracle was turning the water into wine. The first part of that miracle was when Jesus’ Mother told the people, Do whatever He tells you to They did it to the best of their ability. He told them to fill the waterpots with water, and they filled them up to the very brim! Then He told them to take the water to the wedding feast. They began carrying the pots filled with water, and the Bible tells us that AS THEY WENT, the water turned to wine! As we go, in faith and in obedience, our water will turn into wine. Our season will change, and we will go from glory, to glory, to glory!

God desires us to be in glory. He hates sin because it removes us from the glory. Everything that Jesus did was so we would experience and live in the glory. Jesus was the firstborn of many son’s and daughters. We are those son’s and daughters… we can go from glory to glory to glory. Our glory is in direct proportion to our obedience and reaction to any sin in our lives. If the Holy Spirit is prompting you today, in any area of your life, listen and deal with it, and move into more glory. We need God, and, believe it or not… He needs us!

Beloved,

God has chosen us. He has blessed us with ALL spiritual blessings. His desire for us is to draw closer and closer to Him. We should be more like Jesus today than we were yesterday. It’s His desire for us to dwell contiually in the Glory Realm. The secret place, the place where all calm, peace, provision, and miracles happen. It’s in the Glory Realm where we are worn by the Holy Spirit himself! It’s through obedience to His voice and His word that we dwell in this place, this glory realm. Today, He’s calling us to new heights. To new obedience. To new love. His desire for us today is for us to be hoses where the Holy Spirit can flow freely through us. We must decrease, and He must increase.(John 3:30) We are the ones whom He’s called to be His vessel on this earth. To carry His words, and His spirit to a hurting generation. He needs us! Yes, He can use others if He wishes
