Do you think it is a coincidence that it was John who was told to “Come up hither!”? John was the one who laid his head upon Jesus’ breast and heard the heartbeat of FATHER, the Creator of the universe. He the wrote the Gospel and the Epistles on Love. It was him who was chosen to write of the highest Spiritual realm. Paul joined him in the pursuit of the mysteries reserved for those who were made aware of this higher realm, the third Heaven. Paul was to impart the words which would lead us to the same revelation and even greater Truths reserved for this time in history:
Colossians 3:1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
Now is the time of the greatest asking, seeking, and knocking for those things which are above in the third Heaven. John the Revelator beheld the Open Door in Revelation Chapter 4:
1 After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.”
2 Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.
We are very specifically told to “seek those things” which are located where Christ is- at the right hand of FATHER. This is where the power and authority is found for us to minister from. Our individual callings must emanate from this very place. Otherwise, we will just be another wannabe. Isaiah tells us from whence his calling came in Isaiah 6:
1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. 2 Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one cried to another and said:
“Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts;
The whole earth is full of His glory!”
4 And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.
Isaiah also experienced the Open Door in Heaven. He received his prophetic calling from the Throne as one of the seraphim flew to him, his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar and touched his lips thus commissioning him.
Many are called: “Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?” was spoken from the Throne. Isaiah replied , “Here am I! Send me.” And he was chosen! Where was Isaiah at when he responded? In the third Heaven at the Open Door to the Throne and in the Presence of the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.
We are to “ask” for wisdom, to “seek” for understanding. For what purpose? To seek those things which are above, where Christ is! This is where our Heavenly calling resides.
We must focus on the “Right Hand of FATHER”, where Christ is. We are His Body. Our source of power and authority is obtained as we walk through the Open Door. This is the door where Jesus “knocked” and it was opened. We are given descriptions of what resides at the Right Hand:
Psalm 118:
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation
Is in the tents of the righteous;
The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted;
The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
17 I shall not die, but live,
And declare the works of the LORD.
Declaring the works of the LORD is being counted among those who are called to bring forth Heaven to earth. Our inheritance is located at the right hand of FATHER. Our inheritance IS our treasury. An inheritance is a treasury of assets reserved and distributed by specific appointment to the inheritors for their specific use.
Hebrews 1:3 1 God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; 3 who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Until you seek your inheritance, you will not be able to operate according to the treasury set aside specifically for you. My responsibility to you is to notify you that your inheritance awaits your presence. YOU must set your mind and seek. You have been shown the path to the Door that is to be opened. It is up to you to respond. Jesus revealed this in Matthew 7:
7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.”
