Open Heaven: Part 1

We are intended to live in an Open Heaven!

We are intended to operate in the unseen realities of GOD.  What you can see is temporal whereas what you can’t see is Eternal. 

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2nd Corinthians chapter 4:

18 because we don’t focus our attention on what is seen but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but the unseen realm is Eternal.

We are to partner with HIM, carry HIS Name, carry HIS Presence into redemptive purpose to restore this planet to GOD’S Divine Intent.  That assignment has not changed.

“Open Heaven” is a Biblical theme, signifying a direct connection between God’s reality and Earth. If is found throughout Scripture.  FATHER placed man in the Garden of Eden and humanity was assigned to co-labor and extend God’s rule onto the earth. 

Inside the Garden was light and outside the Garden was chaos and darkness.  Their assignment was to subdue the earth.

Moses recorded by The Holy Spirit in Genesis chapter 1:

28 And God blessed them in His Love, saying, “Reproduce and be fruitful! Populate the earth and subdue it! Reign over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and every creature that lives on earth.”

The word subdue means to take dominion or to control in an appropriate fashion to release the greatest potential to benefit GOD’S highest creation: humankind.  FATHER chose man made in HIS Image, the honor to subdue the earth.

Moses recorded by The Holy Spirit in Genesis chapter 28:

10 Now Jacob went out from Beersheba and went toward Haran.

11 So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep.

12 Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to Heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.

Heaven was opened to Jacob!

13 And behold, the LORD stood above it and said: “I am the LORD God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants.

14 Also your descendants shall be as the dust of the earth; you shall spread abroad to the west and the east, to the north and the south; and in you and in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.

15 Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.”

16 Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I did not know it.”

17 And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the House of God, and this is the gate of Heaven!”

What is a gate?  It is a separator between two realities.  You are on one side or the other… in or out, up or down.

Jesus gave His disciples (and us) a very specific responsibility.

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 6:

9 Pray like this: ‘Our Beloved Father, dwelling in the Heavenly realms, may the glory of Your Name be the center on which our lives turn.

10 Manifest Your Kingdom realm, and cause Your every purpose to be fulfilled on earth, just as it is in Heaven.

We are to represent HIM and HIS World here on earth.  We have a mandate to bring forth Heaven to earth.  HE is well pleased with those who accept this responsibility.  As we immerse ourselves in being bound by THE SPIRIT, we will realize that Heaven is open for our access.
