THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS – Ron McGatlin
God is speaking clearly in the hearts of His people and by the mouth of His true prophets today, calling His people to enter a new season of pure worship in the beauty of holiness, the manifest presence of God, a beauty beyond description, surpassing peace and joy in pure love and extreme empowerment, becoming one with God and bringing heaven to earth.
This is a time, a season for worshiping God in the beauty of holiness. People of God worldwide are beginning to realize and understand that we are facing an all-out war more devastating and deadly than any world war ever. This war is for the HEARTS OF MANKIND.
It is in the hearts of mankind that the fate of this world now rests. If darkness continues unabated to fill the hearts of the generations, hell will continue to expand on earth, bringing death and destruction to life on earth. Bombs and bullets have a place in the first order of temporarily subduing or clearing a spot, but CAN NEVER WIN THIS WAR!
Mankind alone, without God, with his ability, strength, and knowledge, can never win this war. Only a people filled with the love, light, power, and wisdom of God in Christ Jesus can defeat the darkness.
Almighty God of Heaven will give His people the victory by His power and wisdom from Heaven, if and only if His people are one in love with Him. If we are one with God, our hearts and lives are completely aligned with Him, and we have no other gods.
We hear Him and His instructions clearly and completely obey them. We willingly follow God’s command authority or the captain in the authority of Christ. We move as one with one another in Christ and Father God, and God with Christ in us, all as one.
One might say about this, “Great, but how in this world of hell on earth do we get there?”
We must receive from God and heaven a new atmosphere of God’s presence through worshiping, in the beauty of holiness that consumes us in love.
In worshiping in the beauty of holiness, God’s ultimate power is released to destroy evil and bring total victory to His people.
HOLINESS is the state of being one with God. Holiness begins by knowing, communing, and worshiping God until enraptured in His LOVE.
In natural human nature, facing an overwhelming situation beyond our ability to control or handle, is sometimes required to cause us to turn to God with our whole hearts and lives. It is our fallen nature to seek to solve our own problems without God as long as we can.
Turning to God with our whole heart in worship engulfs us in the beauty of His holiness and love, filling us with all-consuming love for God and all the world. God in us loves the world, and the channels are opened to receive specific words of instruction on what we are to do while He takes whatever action is required to victoriously deal with the situation at hand.
A HOLY NATION WITHIN NATIONS
God is calling out an Ekklessia nation from among many nations, one nation under God and King Jesus, Lord of all lords in the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. In the called-out spiritual assembly of men, women, and children, all are one in Spirit to worship God in the Beauty of Holiness.
Worshipping angels from before the throne in heaven or being sent to lead the kingdom nation in pure Beauty of Holiness worship in heavenly music and song in many languages heard as one voice in heaven and on earth.
This is the victory of God in Christ Jesus in His called-out people on earth over the enemy darkness that intends to destroy God and His people on Planet Earth.
The nations of darkness will come together in crazed, fierce anger as one force to destroy the worshiping people of God on earth. God will confuse the nations of darkness, and they will destroy one another to the last man.
WORSHIP IN THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS WINS THE WAR
The phrase “beauty of holiness” is used four times in my Bible. Each time it refers to worshiping God in the beauty of holiness.
In chapter 20 of 2 Chronicles, King Jehoshaphat, all Judah, and Jerusalem were wholly turned to God by a dire situation. They cried out to God with their whole hearts, and worshiped Him in the beauty of holiness.
2 Chronicles 20:1-30, “….The people of Moab with the people of Ammon, and others with them besides the Ammonites, came to battle against Jehoshaphat. 2 Then some came and told Jehoshaphat, saying, ‘A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea, from Syria; and they are in Hazazon Tamar” (which is En Gedi). 3 And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the Lord, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
4 So Judah gathered together to ask help from the Lord; and from all the cities of Judah they came to seek the Lord.”
(King Jehoshaphat cried out to God before all the people. He acknowledged God as Lord God of our fathers, and God over all nations, and let Him know their dire situation and that they trusted in Him to deliver them.)
And in verse 10 continued, “And now, here are the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir—whom You would not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned from them and did not destroy them—11 here they are, rewarding us by coming to throw us out of Your possession which You have given us to inherit. 12 O our God, will You not judge them? For we have no power against this great multitude that is coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.
13 Now all Judah, with their little ones, their wives, and their children, stood before the Lord.
14 Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jahaziel, the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, in the midst of the assembly. 15 And he said, “Listen, all you of Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you, King Jehoshaphat! Thus says the Lord to you: ‘Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s. 16 Tomorrow go down against them. They will surely come up by the Ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the brook before the Wilderness of Jeruel. 17 You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem!’ Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you.”
18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem bowed before the Lord, worshiping the Lord. 19 Then the Levites of the children of the Kohathites and of the children of the Korahites stood up to praise the Lord God of Israel with voices loud and high.
20 So they rose early in the morning and went out into the Wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, ‘Hear me, O Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem: Believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper.’ 21 And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who should sing to the Lord, and who should praise in the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army and were saying:
‘Praise the Lord,
For His mercy endures forever.’
22 Now when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated. 23 For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.
24 So when Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked toward the multitude; and there were their dead bodies, fallen on the earth. No one had escaped.”
(The group of nations had turned upon each other and destroyed one another. For three days, the people gathered a vast amount of spoils, including precious jewelry from the bodies.)
28 So they came to Jerusalem, with stringed instruments and harps and trumpets, to the house of the Lord. 29 And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of those countries when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel. 30 Then the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet, for his God gave him rest all around.”
AWAKENING GOD’S NATION WITHIN NATIONS
Awaken to the reality of darkness posing as intellectual light, filling the generations with an inverted vision of the light and love of God as evil darkness, and the evil darkness of man’s superiority having no need of God.
Many false gods are offered daily to entice people to a false promise of pleasure and fulfillment that are only facades of entrapments to hell on earth.
Souls are being gutted of their inner strength and of the value of the peace, power, wisdom, and joy of true life as one with God, experiencing the powerful reality of God and heaven on earth now in our lifetime.
Turn fully to the pure worship experience of the presence of God in and with us as we worship God in the beauty of holiness. Live in love with God and love for His people and His world.
Living without the holiness of the presence of God is the first step to hell on earth now. Worshipping God in the beauty of holiness is heaven on earth now.
1 Chronicles 16:29, “Give to the Lord the glory due His name; Bring an offering, and come before Him.
Oh, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.”
Psalm 29:2, “Give unto the Lord the glory due to His name;
Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.”
Psalm 96:9, “Oh, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! Tremble before Him, all the earth.”
Release the power of God and all heaven to change this world to the kingdom of God, the kingdom of heaven on earth. God has provided all the victory for those who love Him.
But as it is written:
“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9.
