Come Up Here
I woke up with a song by The Fifth Dimension stuck in my head; “Up, Up & Away”. Many times, my heart hears a popular song, only the lyrics are modified to magnify Jesus. The song, “Up, Up & Away” is a perfect example.
Focus on Jesus as you listen to this song and allow the Holy Spirit to take you, Up, Up, & Away to New Encounter Pathways with Jesus. After all, does not the Spirit of God extend an open invitation for us to “Come Up Here” to show us things we have never seen before? Revelation 4:1
In a 3D World, all that is happening today can be easily taken at “face value.” On the surface it looks like “the world is going to hell in a handbasket.” However, if we look from within the 5th Dimension, we will see things in a much different light.
Science has discovered; there are at least 13 dimensions. Most likely there are an infinite number of dimensions that our Infinite Creator God has for us to discover; for it’s IN HIM that we live & move & have our being. Act 17:28
Dimensions in the Bible
The Bible is a supernatural book containing new depths to discover, crack open, draw out & extract from within. The Book is full of Truth, yet there’s deeper & deeper truths to find as we dive in & explore it’s dimensions. For example, we can read a scripture passage that we may have read 100 times before, but suddenly it is like we have never ever read it before, we see something brand new.
I’m reminded of the Practice of “Lectio Divina.”
Lectio Divina, a contemplative way of reading the Bible, dating back to the early centuries of the Christian Church and established as a monastic practice by Benedict in the 6th century. It is a way of praying the scriptures that leads us deeper into God’s word. We slow down. We read a short passage more than once. We chew it over slowly and carefully. We savor it. Scripture begins to speak to us in a new way. It speaks to us personally and aids that union we have with God through Christ who is Himself the Living Word. So, lectio is not Bible study or even an alternative to Bible study but something radically different. The practice understands Scripture as a meeting place for a personal encounter with the Living God. It is a practice we come to with the desire to be changed at all sorts of levels.

I’ve had to say many times “When did God put THAT in the Bible?”
You will be empowered to discover what every holy one experiences—the great magnitude of the astonishing Love of Christ in all its dimensions. How deeply intimate and far-reaching is His Love! How enduring and inclusive it is! Endless Love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding. This extravagant Love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God! Ephesians 3:18-19 TPT
Be fully capable of comprehending with all the saints (God’s people) the width and length and height and depth of His Love, fully experiencing that amazing, endless Love; and that you may come to know, practically, through personal experience the Love of Christ which far surpasses mere knowledge without experience, that you may be filled up throughout your being to all the Fullness of God, so that you may have the richest experience of God’s Presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself. Ephesians 3:18-19 AMP
Eagle Vision
-
Eagles live on higher ground.
We also live from the higher ground of our position in Christ, where we are seated with Him in Heavenly Places now.
He raised us up with Christ the exalted One, and we ascended with Him into the glorious perfection and authority of the heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as one with Christ! Ephesians 2:6 TPT
-
Eagles are able to soar without actually flapping their wings. They wait for big gusts of wind thermals to lift them up.
Hebrews 4 tells us to “enter into His Rest.” We need to wait on God and the Wind of His Spirit will lift us up. It’s from that high dimensional look-out point, that we are enabled to see everything clearly.
Isaiah 40:31 tells us that those who wait on the Lord will rise up with soaring wings like eagles.
Double Eagle Vision
-
Eagle’s use their original eyes when they are in a resting mode.
-
Eagles use another pair of eyes when they take flight, enabling them to fly on these strong wind thermals without damaging their original eyesight. Their secondary eyesight also provides a protective covering as they navigate strong winds & heavy storm clouds.
God has also given us have two sets of eyes.
-
The first set is our normal natural eye which we use to see the natural world in which we live in.
-
Our second set of eyes are the eyes of the Holy Spirit, enabling us to see from His Perspective.
Lovers of God have been given eyes to see and ears to hear from God. Proverbs 20:12 TPT
“Salve-vation”
We must see from our place of “salve-vation” with eyesight that is healed and whole.
“…. anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.” Revelation 3:18 NKJV
Today with so much going on all the time to see, we can easily become overwhelmed with fear. But if we ask God the “right questions” He will open-up the whole picture, so we can see from His Perspective.
The servant of the man of God arose early and went out, there was an army, surrounding the city with horses and chariots. And his servant said to him, “Alas, my master! What shall we do?”
So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” And Elisha prayed, and said, “Lord, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. 2 Kings 6:15-17
In the 5th Dimension and beyond with Jesus, there is nothing impossible & miracles manifest through the 5th Dimension, to the 3rd, touching the physical realm.
The past couple of years, so many have become depressed & felt like they hit “bottom.” The nice thing about being “down & out & flat on your back,” is that there is nowhere else to look but up!
His Infinite-Never-Ending-Everlasting-Goodness
Jesus has no limits & there is no end to the Infinite One. We will have the joy & privilege of continually discovering the depths of His Dimensions for all eternity. And One thing I know that God is not…. God is NOT boring!
Call out to God from your deep need, He will answer you from the depths of His Almighty Power & the depths of His Heart, where He loves you beyond your imagination.
“Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me.” Psalm 42:7
You are a Diamond:
-
Dug out of the cave.
-
Chiseled & Polished by the very Hand of God.
So don't cave-in as you come out of your cave!
Arise & Shine! All the world will see you shine like a diamond through the multi-faceted “Prism of God’s Promises” embedded within you.
The Goodness of God
Do not lose heart, for now is the time to believe that you will see the Goodness of the Lord in the Land of the Living. Psalm 27:13
Many are going to “tremble” before God, but the trembling will not be because of what you may be thinking....We will tremble before the Lord, because of His Goodness!
“Then it shall be to Me a name of joy, a praise, and an honor before all nations of the earth, who shall hear all the good that I do to them; they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and all the prosperity that I provide for it.” Jeremiah 33:9
Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the Lord their God and David their king. They shall fear the Lord and His Goodness in the latter days. Hosea 3:5
You crown the year with Your Goodness, And Your Paths drip with abundance. Psalm 65:11
I’m reminded of some of the lyrics from my song: Jesus Samba
The Spirit of the Lord says;
Come Up Here,
Come Up Here where the air is clear!
Lift up you cares, Shake off your blues,
Dance with God & Kick off your shoes!
It’s time to be drenched with the Presence of our Prince of Peace, & be given fresh bread, new wine, and new perspectives for new strategies to release on this earth as it is in heaven.
Up, Up & Away [The lyrics turned to singing the song with Jesus]
Jesus sings to us:
Would you like to ride in My beautiful balloon?
Would you like to ride in My beautiful balloon?
We could float among the stars together, you and I,
For we can fly (we can fly).
Up, up and away in My beautiful,
My beautiful, My beautiful balloon.
The world's a nicer place in My beautiful balloon,
It wears a nicer face in My beautiful balloon.
We can sing a song and sail along the silver sky
For we can fly (we can fly).
Up, up and away
My beautiful, My beautiful balloon.
We sing to Jesus:
Suspended under a twilight canopy
Jesus, our Morning Star, You will guide us.
And every chance we’ll find ourselves loving You,
Your Glory Cloud inside us,
Your always right beside us.
Up, up and away
in God’s beautiful, His beautiful balloon
Up, up and away
Up, up and away.
It’s a New Season
Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new. It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it? Isaiah 43:19 [Message Version]
God always does “to us” what He desires to do “through us.” He has a new multi-dimensional perspective for us that will put all things into Perspective. May we come up higher & Up, Up & Away into the 5th Dimension and look through the ‘perfect lens of our perfect Prince of Peace.’
