TEXT: Numbers 11:25 and 1 Samuel 10:9-11Amplified Bible (AMP)
25 Then the Lord came down in the cloud and spoke to him; and He took some of the Spirit who was upon Moses and put Him upon the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested upon them, they prophesied [praising God and declaring His will], but they did not do it again.
1 Samuel 10:9-11Amplified Bible (AMP)
9 Then it happened when Saul turned his back to leave Samuel, God changed his heart; and all those signs came to pass that day. 10 When they came to the hill [Gibeah], behold, a group of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came on him mightily, and he prophesied [under divine guidance] among them. 11 Now when all who knew Saul previously saw that he actually prophesied now [by inspiration] with the prophets, the people said one to another, “What has happened to [Saul, who is nobody but] the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”
There are realms of glory to which only those who have been called and selected by God can access. In the book of Revelation chapter 4, when John saw the heavens open, he was unable to partake in that realm of glory until he heard the call asking him to come up. This is worship reserved for only those who are invited to partake in this dimension of glory. The word of God tells us that when John responded to this call, he was only able to do so in his spirit. He went in his spirit. Not all can access this realm of worship. In Numbers 11:25, we were told that Eldad and Medad were not at the tent of meeting but yet they prophesied. How is this possible? When God told Moses to select those who were to partake in this divine dialogue, both of them were chosen. But for some reason that the Bible did not tell us, they could not make it to the place of meeting, but because they were chosen to be part of the divine dialogue, when the grace to function was released on the 70, they got their own portion.
Like in the case of these guys, when you are selected by heaven to share or walk in a particular dimension of glory, things will begin to work in your favor. When Saul walked into the midst of the prophets, because he was already anointed by the prophet Samuel, several things began to fall in place for him. The glory of God came on him and he began to prophesy. For everyone who dwells in the place of deep and intimate fellowship with God, as you progress in your walk with the Lord, the day will come when you will be ushered into a greater dimension of glory. Psalm 42:7 tells us so. God deeper with God and as you do, certain things will begin to work in your favor. Shalom!
