The Importance of Seeing in the Spirit

My heart and spirit are longing for something new in worship and praise. I have yet to pin it down, but there has got to be something on the horizon. I am not only talking of the stuff we sing in our gatherings, but within my own spirit. I am looking for a new song.

Many times through my life I have had prophetic words given over me. Mainly these words have said: 1) You are a warrior and 2)you will have new songs. For years I have wrestled with these words. Why? Well, I have viewed them with the eyes of man. No I don’t mean that I was hoping to swing a sword in some battle overseas like Conan. I really didn’t understand the warrior thing other than it was a word that meant fighter to me. The “new songs” word meant I would have my own songs for an album. That is what my human mind thought.

Things are changing big time in the kingdom right now and seeing with your spirit is a predominant issue. There is coming a time, very soon, when we must KNOW by the spirit not the flesh. Our very lives may depend on it. So… with that in mind, I have come to understand that I am a warrior in the kingdom over the enemy in not only my own life, but the lives of those I touch. I am a worship warrior going out before the battle, rallying the bride up for the issue at hand. A warrior is on the front lines by choice not force. Always ready at any moment.

With this warrior spirit is the new songs word. As I understand more and more the concept of the warrior, I will begin to see a new song rise up in my spirit, something I have never seen before in my life. The songs will come from the worship that is birthed deep in the womb of my spirit and their flow out of me. Lyrics may or may not come, but a prophetic worshipping warrior power will come.

I liken these thoughts to a conversation I had with my mother while she was still here. One day we were talking and she said, “I am still waiting for the Lord to fulfill His word to me. He said I would sing before thousands”. I said, ” Mom, did he say all at one time? You have sang to way more than thousands, just not at the same moment”. Seeing in the spirit can save you from missing things. My mom had really sang to more than thousands, but she was viewing the WORD from a human perspective.

I pray that this new song will come soon and that it will spark new SONGS. I want new songs for the kingdom. I want new lyrics that are spirit filled grabbing the listeners heart and spirit and filling it with praise and power. I want songs like those of King David’s that had God empowered to keep the enemy at bay in Saul while he played for him. I want worship to flow out of me with the spirit of Elijah, demonstrating Gods power to the earth. I want songs that blast through the walls, the scaled eyes, the enemies lines and grabs those NOT YET of the kingdom and that plants the seed of truth and of fire deep in their spirit womb. Many will see and hear, many, for the kingdom of God is at hand.

We must begin to see with the eyes of the spirit.
