Dear Brothers and Sisters,
It
is my joy to reflect upon the evening we shared at An Eagles
Revelation! We arrived at the entrance of this club of faith, prayer
and service. Majestic photos of the bald eagle were displayed on each
wall. In the front, at the welcome table, placed between flower arrangements, was
an open Bible. Poised at the front corners of the table were eagles. On the center wall was the photo of a woolly sheep, representative of the
flock guided by our host of the evening, SheepHerder.
To the right, a narrow set of stairs led to a long hallway. Most of
us were wandering like lost sheep, till our shepherd gently showed us
the way to the secret chambers. At the beginning of the hall on the right
was a gold set of drapes. As we entered this
place, the atmosphere changed completely, appearing as fluffy clouds
through which we walked. Sheepherder explained that the entrance room
with eagles represented earth. This cloudy room represented the day
when the Lord calls upon us to fly in the sky as eagles. Before
us was an image of Jesus, gazing sweetly at a
tiny lamb in His embrace. We read His words "My sheep hear my voice...I
know them, and
they follow me" John 10:27. We walked through this verse, knowing that
Jesus is truly the way. This took us to a large cloudy room with a constant fall
of snowflakes in front of a large screen. To our left, we saw an image
of Jesus reaching out His hand. This
was to represent our Lord calling us to come home, for our trials were over. As
we walked into His hand, it took us to a golden stairway with walls of
shiny gold. At the top we saw an image of the risen Lord in the clouds,
surrounded by trumpeting seraphs. We read the words of the Lord's
welcome to us: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Enter thou
into the Joy of the Lord." This room of gold trimmed in blue
represented our new home in Heaven. Here we will have no more tears or
pain as we live in His presence forever. On the walls we saw images of
angels and the animal creatures in the book of Revelation. One of them
took us a bit by surprise, a haloed kitten! Sheepherder proudly
explained that this represented his dear friend, FaithfulKitten,who had
decorated this room so beautifully for us!
It was time for service, so we made our way downstairs to the long
hallway, then walked all the way back, to the right and then up steps to giant
wooden entrance doors. The view was breathtaking as we entered this
church! Above us was a high ceiling of intricate stained glass. In
front of us was a wide runner of elegant carpet and the walls were of
lovely tiled marble. The front of the sanctuary had simple wooden
crosses on each side. Stairways on the left and right of the church led
to a balcony area where we could get a close up view of the sanctuary
top. It had stained glass of the silhouette with Christ crucified.
Honestly, words fail me to describe the beauty of this place. You
simply must come visit and explore for yourself.
We began our service with music to worship and celebrate the Lord. Then we heard a life changing message by Joyce Meyer called Birthing of an Eagle.
We learned amazing things in this message to inspire us in our walk
with the Lord. Many in attendance plan to follow this lesson by
watching her next lesson, titled Renewed Like an Eagle.
After the message we ascended the golden stairs to abide together in
the Heaven area. This was truly a night to treasure in our hearts. The
highest goal of our earthly life is to spend eternity in Heaven. This
is my desire for every member of the Christian Believers Fellowship.
All My Love,
