INSIDE THE GATES OF
HEAVEN God on His Throne is the center of all things, and from God comes the Light of Life. This Light makes the City of God appear brighter than the sun in the sky of earth; in fact, the day is coming soon when the City of God will appear in the sky of earth, and the brightness of this City will outshine the sun and the moon. (Isa.24:23) The River of Life also begins at the Throne of God. This River is the Spirit of God flowing from the Throne, through each chamber in the Temple wall, then down into the fountains. This River of Life then continues in twelve spirals around the Temple out through the Holy Place to the eastern gate. From this gate of Heaven the River moves as the invisible Spirit of God to bless those on earth who will accept Him. If we walk in the Light and in the Spirit on earth, we will walk in the Light and in the River in Heaven. The Throne of God appears to rest on a large white-with-light oval structure about 100 miles wide, 50 miles front to back, and 25 miles high. But then again its size seems to vary greatly. It is difficult to describe; you will have to see it for yourself. In front of the Throne is a large sapphire blue oval area called the sea of glass, and on the other side of the Sea of Glass from the Throne is the Ark of God, or Mercy Seat, and the Altar of Incense. (The prayers of saints are called 'incense.' Rev.5:8.) When the apostle John was in this Most Holy Place, he saw souls of martyrs under the Altar of Incense, praying to God to hasten judgment upon the earth. (Rev.6:9-10) The Sea of Glass before the Throne is paved with blue sapphire gems. Its oval shape is about 150 by 200 miles. It is like a moveable platform; it disappears when not needed and its size is adjustable. At appointed times there are various methods of worship in the space below where the Sea of Glass sometimes appears. But I find it difficult to describe these things because of sacred secrets that some earth dwellers, who have not seen the invisible things of God, may not understand. However, I would like to describe worship activity for you as it takes place in the large area of the Most Holy Place before God's Throne. This first worship activity is called 'Cup of Love.' Thousands of companion saints gather into this space before the Lord on His Throne, dressed in garments of very bright white Light. These garments are decorated with sparkling jewels in the five major colors of Heaven: gold, blue, purple, red, and green. The saints place themselves in a round cup-like formation, like a perfectly-shaped drinking glass, very artistic and beautiful. This symbolizes a vessel of honor and cup of love to Jesus who drank the bitter cup of death for these very saints who are now expressing their love to Him. Then the cup begins to turn slowly. This is the worship of love and is very delightful to God and to Jesus and to all who in this arena behold.
"He shall see of the travail of His
soul, At another time I was the only one in the great arena of space before the Throne of God. The Sea of Glass was removed and I was raptured with wonder, love, and praise. In my ecstasy, I was waving my arms and dancing and spinning around, and as I did so, the five colors of Heaven were coming from the five fingers of each of my hands. I was not conscious of writing anything, but the trails of color remained in space as a love letter to God even after I finished my worship. That is when I learned about the five major colors of Heaven.
