                          Death And Glory

I see many people "dying"... many have become aware of their flesh and are 
groaning and moaning.  The flesh is rising up in desparation seeing it's 
imminent death... there is much mourning, crying, travail, brokeness...  The 
flesh is dying in many in the Church because the glory of the Lord is 
approaching... encourage this dying and encourage true repentance, pray for 
the GIFT of repentance.  The Lord's glory is approaching, He is turning His 
face toward us!!  So many are coming with a need to be "healed" in their 
spirit because the glory is making their flesh stink, obvious, it hurts.... 
The flesh doesn't want to die it's fighting, resisting, crying out against 
this impending death... many are depressed or frightened, or need something 
they can't put their finger on, they are confused about their emotions right 
now....

It is death and it's process, from the Garden of Gethsename to the cross.... 
what comes after is resurrection power and all the glory of God..... God's 
manifest Presence is coming, His glory is about to fall... I pray we don't 
run from it but toward it, I pray we do what the Holy Spirit is telling us 
to do... repent and let it die, humble ourselves and continue to pray, to 
invite and receive His Presence in all it's glory without fear of man.
