The Ascent

Peter, James, and John were chosen and called out from the other disciples to experience a special event with Jesus in Mark chapter 9:

1 And He said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see the kingdom of God present with power.”

2 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them.

3 His clothes became shining, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

4 And Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

5 Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah”—

6 because he did not know what to say, for they were greatly afraid.

7 And a cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!”

8 Suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no one anymore, but only Jesus with themselves.

They were called to ascend the mountain beyond their current understanding and little did they know what they were in for.  Jesus was transfigured in front of three witnesses, thus it was fully established on earth.  This transfiguration was not drawn out over a long period of time but was immediate in nature.  In the account written by Luke, he wrote that after 8 days they ascended up the mountain.  Both numbers point to a Tabernacles experience of HIS Glory coming forth as we ascend.

FATHER spoke to all three of the disciples and commanded them “Hear Him!”  Nothing was said about Moses or Elijah yet the disciples were ready to make three tabernacles.  The Law and the Spirit were represented by Moses and Elijah yet Jesus was the culmination of both, thus “Hear Him!”

All indications lead me to believe that a quick work is ahead.  I only know in part at this time so I am unwilling to fill in the blanks.  There has been clear evidence of an activation.  The transfiguration experienced by Jesus was an authentication for the three disciples to witness and we may see something as notable.  Only FATHER knows the details of HIS forthcoming plan.  Don’t assume you know how it will play out, you may be looking in the wrong direction.

I continue to direct those who are willing to hear to press in and continue to focus on being sensitive to FATHER’S Voice and being led by HIS SPIRIT.  When HIS plan comes into full observation, those who are prepared will be in a position to go forth well equipped.  We must tune out the world and not let our minds overtake our spirit but instead place our minds in subjection to our spirits.  The mind is a great servant but a harsh taskmaster.  The narrow path of walking in Love is before us as we stand at the base of the mountain.  Let us ascend to HIS Ways and not our own.
