A Tribute to Prophet Kim Clement

Written by Raelynn Parkin, September 2001

Man of Honor, Man of Strength

Living in the arms of His Savior

Taken by hand, carving the path

Laying his life down for the nations

Heart of a servant, love for all

Crying the tears of His Savior

Dead to this life, but alive in Christ

Living out the Gospel before Heaven

We stand in Honor of this General

Who has risen to the Call of His Father

Counting the cost, trading his life

To capture the pearl of Great Price.

My friends, I feel a profound loss today, in the loss of Prophet Kim Clement. Though he did not know me, I knew him. In June 1999, when I was fresh coming out of my traditional background, a new friend of mine brought me to Quail Valley Church to a Kim Clement worship service. I didn’t even know who he was, but my heart was stirred, and I was undone. He got off the piano, and he came to the front and very strongly asked if there was anyone who wanted what he carried to come up front. I didn’t even know what he was really saying, but I ran up to the front, my husband was a bit shocked. And he laid hands on me and imparted to me a great gift. I have not yet fully unwrapped that gift, but I am grateful to have received it. It was like a father bestowing his blessing upon the sons and daughters. Please forgive, I don’t normally go on like this, but I wanted to pause with a thankful heart for the beautiful prophetic deposit he gave me, and to honor this spiritual father who has gone on to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! I know he has lived a difficult life and carved a lonely path at times, but I thank the Lord for this pioneer of Prophecy who selflessly laid down his life for the nations. God Bless you Kim Clement, much Peace and Love to your family and friends in their time of loss, and thank you…

The Principle of Honor

The Lord is very serious about honor! He has beautiful promises for those who choose to honor, but it is a choice.

16 “Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the Lord your God is giving you.  Deuteronomy 5:16

The first commandment is to honor the first ones God has given to you for your benefit, your parents.  I love that this commandment also contains a promise that you will live long. Have you ever wondered why some just enjoy long life, not just because they have a good genetic code, but because I believe they made a choice to honor the first authorities in their lives, their parents. This is not to say that all parents are good or godly in their parenting, or that your childhood was an easy one. You can still choose to honor, even when it is difficult or there is much to overcome. The second part of that promise is that it will go well with you. Through honor, even though your childhood experience was difficult, as you honor, God promises to honor you with a well lived life. The third part of that promise is about ownership, …”in the land the Lord your God is giving you.” Through honor, you may access inheritance, though not necessarily through your natural parents, your Father in Heaven will give you land ownership, maybe not physical, but spiritual inheritance! God is also establishing a precedent here in scripture not just for natural inheritance, but also for spiritual inheritance, through honor.

Let’s look at a couple more… the example of Elijah and Elisha.

2 When the Lord was about to take Elijah up to heaven in a whirlwind, Elijah and Elisha were on their way from Gilgal. 2 Elijah said to Elisha, “Stay here; the Lord has sent me to Bethel.”
But Elisha said, “As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you.” So they went down to Bethel. 3 The company of the prophets at Bethel came out to Elisha and asked, “Do you know that the Lord is going to take your master from you today?” “Yes, I know,” Elisha replied, “so be quiet.”
4 Then Elijah said to him, “Stay here, Elisha; the Lord has sent me to Jericho.”
And he replied, “As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you.” So they went to Jericho. 5 The company of the prophets at Jericho went up to Elisha and asked him, “Do you know that the Lord is going to take your master from you today?”
“Yes, I know,” he replied, “so be quiet.”  6 Then Elijah said to him, “Stay here; the Lord has sent me to the Jordan.”  And he replied, “As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you.” So the two of them walked on.
7 Fifty men from the company of the prophets went and stood at a distance, facing the place where Elijah and Elisha had stopped at the Jordan. 8 Elijah took his cloak, rolled it up and struck the water with it. The water divided to the right and to the left, and the two of them crossed over on dry ground.
9 When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, “Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken from you?”  “Let me inherit a double portion of your spirit,” Elisha replied.  10 “You have asked a difficult thing,” Elijah said, “yet if you see me when I am taken from you, it will be yours—otherwise, it will not.”
11 As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind. 12 Elisha saw this and cried out, “My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen of Israel!” And Elisha saw him no more. Then he took hold of his garment and tore it in two.
13 Elisha then picked up Elijah’s cloak that had fallen from him and went back and stood on the bank of the Jordan. 14 He took the cloak that had fallen from Elijah and struck the water with it. “Where now is the Lord, the God of Elijah?” he asked. When he struck the water, it divided to the right and to the left, and he crossed over.  15 The company of the prophets from Jericho, who were watching, said, “The spirit of Elijah is resting on Elisha.” And they went to meet him and bowed to the ground before him.       2 Kings 2:1-15

I was tempted to share only a couple of verses, but there is so much meat here for you to enjoy! At any time, Elisha who was probably younger and more sprightly, could have stolen the mantle of Elijah. But as he honored his spiritual mentor, teacher and father, God who was the only one who could truly bestow the double portion, granted his request!

Joshua honored Moses, and was chosen to lead the nation of Israel into their promised land. Jesus honored his Father.

19 Jesus gave them this answer: “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. John 5:19

And so the Father honored the Son!

13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. 14 But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”  15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John consented.
16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” Matthew 3: 13-17

The Father honored the Son on Earth, and the Father honored Him in Heaven.

5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2: 5-11

Those are the Blessings of Honor, which are too numerous to share here. There are also consequences to lack of Honor.  God also honors his authorities that he has placed in the earth.  When Aaron and Miriam dishonored Moses, in Numbers Chapter 12, literally undermining his authority, God backed his man, and Miriam suffered the consequences for her irreverance…

8b…Why then were you not afraid
to speak against my servant Moses?”
9 The anger of the Lord burned against them, and he left them.  10 When the cloud lifted from above the tent, Miriam’s skin was leprous—it became as white as snow. Aaron turned toward her and saw that she had a defiling skin disease,      Numbers 12:8b-10

Look at the example of Absalom trying to usurp the Kingship of David in 2 Samuel Chapters 15-18. David was anointed and appointed of God, but his son Absalom dishonored his own father by setting up his illegitimate Throne in place of King David (instead of receiving through inheritance), turning many men of Israel against him, and even seeking to kill his own Father.  It did not end well for Absalom…

9 Now Absalom happened to meet David’s men. He was riding his mule, and as the mule went under the thick branches of a large oak, Absalom’s hair got caught in the tree. He was left hanging in midair, while the mule he was riding kept on going.  10 When one of the men saw what had happened, he told Joab, “I just saw Absalom hanging in an oak tree.”  14 Joab said, “I’m not going to wait like this for you.” So he took three javelins in his hand and plunged them into Absalom’s heart while Absalom was still alive in the oak tree. 15 And ten of Joab’s armor-bearers surrounded Absalom, struck him and killed him.                                      2 Samuel 18: 9-10, 14-15

You may say that this is old testament, but the Word of God demonstrates lessons of honor throughout both Testaments! Consider the story of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5.

1 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet. 3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? 4 Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”   5 When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened. 6 Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.  7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?” “Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”
9 Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”
10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband. 11 Great fear seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.   Acts 5:1-10

Jesus demonstrated honor, even living in the world system of his day. Jesus called this a trap. Isn’t it still a trap today that ensnares many?

17 Tell us then, what is your opinion? Is it right to pay the imperial tax to Caesar or not?”
18 But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, “You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me? 19 Show me the coin used for paying the tax.” They brought him a denarius, 20 and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”  21 “Caesar’s,” they replied.
Then he said to them, “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” Matthew 22:17-21

Submission to Governing Authorities

13 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.
6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.                      Romans 13:1-7

I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— 2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.  1 Timothy 2: 1-2

This is a time for us to pray for healing, for unity, and for honor. The blessing of this is …”that we may live peaceful and quiet lives…” and …”that it may go well with you in the land the Lord your God has given you.” Grace and Peace to all of you and God Bless you!

The Worship Houston! Project may seem like a brand new thing, but really it is the Suddenly! of the Lord with its origins back in October 2004, 12 years in the making. The Lord had downloaded this revelation but in the vision of a beautiful room, as he commissioned me to build the prototype in Houston, Texas. I had no idea what that meant, and the Lord settled my heart, that it would not look like what I thought. But the idea began to form of a worship birthed in many places, and a worshiping priesthood that would minister unto the Lord as the Sons of Zadok did in Ezekiel 44. It did not look anything like the contemporary worship or the patterns of worship I was seeing, and at the time, many did not understand what I clearly saw unfold before my eyes. This new thing challenged the current status quo and was an ancient pattern found in the Word of God. In God’s Timing, it would be clearly seen by many others, yet for the time, I treasured it up in my heart, not sure with whom I could share this dream! Here is the origin of the Worship Houston! Project from an excerpt in my book, “The Heavenly Worship Room.”

In My Father’s House

¹ Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. ² In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. ³ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.                                                                                       John 14:1-3 NIV

³ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.                                                                                           John 14:3 KJV

 The Vision Begins

We were coming into a new place, the previous occupants were “The Father’s House.”  We were now coming to reside and continue in the work that they had begun there.  But it was a new work.  And I, as the worship leader, was given a room, a small room on the right side of the platform about the size of a walk in closet, identical to the storage closet flanking the left side of the platform.  I was given full authority to do whatever I wanted with the room, and the vision began to unfold as to the plan the Lord had for the room.

It was the beginning of October 2004, and the hand of the Lord was heavy upon me for about three days. I began to receive the download of the plans the Lord had, plans that overwhelmed me and frightened me.  It was too much for me, and I did not even have the first clue in how to do what the Lord had given me to do.  But I had resolved in my heart to give the best that I had to offer, and I would step forward in full faith and confidence that He would direct my path and lead me in the way to accomplish it.  He had given me a pattern, one I had not even been aware of until now.  He assured me this is how he led both Moses and David in the plans he had given them.

Moses’ Pattern

⁹ Make this tabernacle and all its furnishings exactly like the pattern I will show you.                                                                                                                                                                        Exodus 25:9

⁴⁰ See that you make them according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.                                                                                                                                                                               Exodus 25:40

⁴⁴ “Our forefathers had the tabernacle of the Testimony with them in the desert. It had been made as God directed Moses, according to the pattern he had seen.                              Acts 7:44

⁵ They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.”                                                Hebrews 8:5

David’s Pattern

¹⁰ “Consider now, for the LORD has chosen you to build a temple as a sanctuary. Be strong and do the work.” ¹¹ Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for the portico of the temple, its buildings, its storerooms, its upper parts, its inner rooms and the place of atonement. ¹² He gave him the plans of all that the Spirit had put in his mind for the courts of the temple of the LORD and all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of the temple of God and for the treasuries for the dedicated things. ¹³ He gave him instructions for the divisions of the priests and Levites, and for all the work of serving in the temple of the LORD, as well as for all the articles to be used in its service. ¹⁸ and the weight of the refined gold for the altar of incense. He also gave him the plan for the chariot, that is, the cherubim of gold that spread their wings and shelter the ark of the covenant of the LORD.

¹⁹ “All this,” David said, “I have in writing from the hand of the LORD upon me, and he gave me understanding in all the details of the plan.”  ²⁰ David also said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you until all the work for the service of the temple of the LORD is finished.                                                                    Chronicles 28:10-13, 18-20

In the last chapter of my previous book, “Lessons from One Worship Leader to Another,” the Lord had spoken something very profound and wonderful to me.  He said, “When the pattern is right, the Glory will come!”  In writing the last chapter, “The Glory Returns,” it became apparent to me that inherent in the pattern was the Glory waiting to be revealed.  There was glory in the blueprints of Heaven given to men of things to come, and some of them were even symbolic of things to come.

⁷ “This is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘If you will walk in my ways and keep my requirements, then you will govern my house and have charge of my courts, and I will give you a place among these standing here.  ⁸ Listen, O high priest Joshua and your associates seated before you, who are men symbolic of things to come: I am going to bring my servant, the Branch.’ “                                                                                                                           Zechariah 3:7-8

These men were symbolic of the one to come, the Branch, the Lord Jesus Himself.  There was Glory in the things that Jesus said and did and he also left us a pattern for his newly birthed church.  There was Glory in His Word as well, waiting to be discovered.  This is later reflection upon what the Lord had given me.  Initially, I was too overwhelmed to even pen what I had seen.  The hand of the Lord is heavy upon me now to recount the revelation of what he had given me four years previously.  He said that I would now write this account in His Presence.

The Heavenly Worship Room

He showed me this room, but not all of the pieces at first.  It was an unfolding revelation, as I would complete one aspect then he would show me another.  I did not have the full revelation until I was nearing its completion.  It was to be called “The Heavenly Worship Room” and I did come to understand the purpose of the room.  It was a teaching room and had many lessons inherent in its design.  He said I was building the prototype and I did not understand what he meant by that, but I saw many of these rooms going up around the nation and many nations.  It was a prophetic work and a prophetic word to those who had ears to hear and eyes to see and hearts to perceive and understand.  And it was beautiful beyond what I could imagine.

Three Tabernacles

Inherent in the design of this room were three tabernacles, the tabernacle of Moses, the tabernacle of David, and the New Testament tabernacle of Jesus Christ.

¹¹ “In that day I will restore David’s fallen tent. I will repair its broken places, restore its ruins, and build it as it used to be,                                                                                                    Amos 9:11 NIV

¹¹ In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:                                                                                                                                                                                              Amos 9:11 KJV

Incidentally, I don’t think it is a coincidence that 9-11 has come to represent a terrible day of events or an emergency call.  When God restores his 9-11, it will be an awesome day for the church as his Glory will be restored in the latter house.

⁹ The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.                                       Haggai 2:9 KJV

Solomon penned this next verse, having built the former house.

¹ Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain.  Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain.                                                                        Psalm 127:1

What was in this tabernacle of David, this fallen tent that God wanted to restore?  I believe it is significant that the Lord repeatedly says that “I will raise… I will build…I will restore…I will repair.”  He also declared that “the glory of the latter house shall be greater than of the former…in this place will I give peace…” and “Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain.”  The main responsibility of the building and the restoration was upon the Lord’s shoulders, he just needed an available and willing servant to bring forth his plans.  I believe the tabernacle of David focused on his ministry before the ark and the former and latter houses focused on the resulting Glory that took up residence above the Mercy Seat.  But I will go into further explanation in a later chapter.

The Vision Unfolds

I will recount what I saw in full vision and then I will revisit each aspect of the room.  What I started with was the worst room in the entire building.  The room had water dripping on its south side, an awful paint job and a border we could not scrape off the walls.  It had black plastic baseboards which we tore off.  It also had a huge speaker extended into the room and hideous green carpet with a small stair that entered the platform through a door.  There were moldy ceiling tiles and it was an odd shaped room about 16 feet long and 12 feet at its widest and 9 feet at its shallow end where the speaker was.  But we were happy to receive this room and the Lord had big plans for this room.

The initial part of this vision was to prepare the walls by putting Venetian plaster on the walls to cover up the bad border and paint job.  I definitely had help doing this since I had never done this before. The Lord then showed me the Glory (gold) and the Blood (crimson) on the walls.  It was to be present on each layer of paint on the walls.  I began with a pale gold layer and then put splotches of gold and crimson on the walls, looking a lot like autumn leaves.  Some cringed as they saw what was going up on the walls.  My husband also helped me, knowing what I had told him, but not sure how to make it happen, and surely feeling my pain.  I had seen the glory dance on the walls, but only God could do that part.  Then God led me to the gold paint that went on top of this layer that made the walls shine like the Taj Mahal (some said).  We then accented the lines of the plaster with shades of white and differing colors of gold and bronze faux.

The doors and facings were finished with ivory cream and the base boards were painted a faux copper and bronze to finish off the room strong.  We intended to change out the carpet to a soft copper color with padding underneath as it was an unpadded concrete floor.  A 12 X 12 rug was also purchased to cover the center of the room.  To cover up the speaker, I found a soft iridescent gold fabric and used a plastic PVC pipe and curved it around the top of the ceiling to drape around the speaker. To complete that end of the room, gold fabric hung at the corners with soft ivory iridescent fabric and gold sashes draped over the top.

I then saw a floor lamp with a cream lamp in the far corner opposite the speaker, and there was a squared off pole on the far end of which I covered with the ivory material as well as in the far corner.  Across the top border of the room, I saw light.  So I found some crackled rope lights (Christmas lights) and hung them around the ceiling of the room, and then covered them with the iridescent ivory material to soften the light and create a beautiful soft glow.  I had also planned to attach two beautiful sconces to the wall behind the platform to bring a softer feel to the room. When the lights were turned off except the floor lamp and the ceiling lights, the room danced in the Glory, the walls had a life of their own.  The Lord had done what he had promised, the walls danced in the Glory, and there was Glory in this room. There was an atmosphere of Heaven, and as you entered the room, it felt like you left an earthly place and stepped into a place in Heaven.

I saw a chair in the corner in front of the floor lamp with a marble topped pedestal beside it.  I then saw a short sculpted pedestal of which I had planned to put a vase with flowers.  I painted it a cream base with gold accents on the sculpted carvings and it would sit in front of the ivory covered pole.  I did not see many chairs in this place maybe one or two other chairs, as it was a very small room.

I then saw fabric on the ceiling and had no idea how to do it.  There was an air conditioning vent in the center with the ugly ceiling tiles surrounding it.  The Lord took me to an antique place with one room that was exactly what He had in mind.  It looked like a pleated skirt, with pleats of ivory fabric precisely laid out from the far corners neatly tucked under the air conditioning vent.  The air conditioning vent was perfectly covered with this ivory fabric to finish it off.  I then saw different levels of ivory fabric hanging lower, like that of a tent, with varying degrees of height, but where you could see the gentle pleats above.  These lower hanging fabrics that I originally saw, were not added in time for the completion of the vision.

He then showed me various accessories to finish the room.  I saw a candelabra with one light raised above four.  I found two of them the exact same style in two different stores in two different states, one smaller than the other with ivory taper candles.  I saw a golden bowl for the incense of the prayer of the saints and I saw two large golden pillows, both the Lord took me to find in antique stores.  I intended to find a Golden pitcher, or at least one that I could paint gold, but did not find it before the room was finished. And then He showed me the teachings of the room.  These were actual stations of worship.  I will describe them as they looked and then go into greater detail their purpose in a later chapter.

Three Stations of Worship

The first station of worship I saw looked like a golden bird bath.  It was located at the end of the room where the speaker was.  I looked high and low for this very bird bath, Romanesque and simple.  I found one with the base and the bath in two separate pieces.  I painted them gold with a coating of polyurethane since it would have water.  This was the Golden laver (though made of brass in Moses’ tabernacle) as represented in the tabernacle of Moses.  Located next to it was a golden accented basket which housed anointing oil and booklets of scripture to read.

Above it I saw a beautiful ornate golden oval mirror, the second station of worship.  The Lord took me to an antique shop where I had seen the fabric on the ceiling and I spent a fraction of the cost for the most beautiful mirror I had ever seen.  I hung it directly above the golden laver with soft ivory material draped behind it and hanging down to the floor. We see this in the heart of David and of Moses, to seek His Face.  This is the mirror of what Jesus said and what he did.  This is the mirror of beholding the Son and being transformed from Glory to Glory into the same image of that which we are beholding, the very likeness of our King.

¹⁸ And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.                                                                                                                                                                2 Corinthians 3:18 NIV

 ¹⁸ But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.                                                                                                                                                                                          2 Corinthians 3:18 KJV

The third station was the final crossing of the threshold into the Holy of Holies.  I saw a table with a plate that had the bread and a wine glass, the one I found had a golden base with a red goblet which represented the blood of Jesus.  These were the three teachings of the worship room, to teach the worshipper how to enter into the Holy of Holies, into the inner sanctum with Him, and how to approach a Holy King in the Throne Room of Heaven.

Beside this final station, I saw a doorway.  I squared off its dimensions with gold fabric and lined the outer edges with the same ivory material used in the room.  Behind this doorway was the platform itself.  In front of this doorway, I saw two golden pillars which had two large angel candleholders set a little bit from the wall. The candelabra and golden bowl were positioned in front of the angels.  These prophetically represented the cherubim that covered the mercy seat and the worship angels in Heaven.  The vision went on to include two white pillars that framed this doorway and above the doorway was a valance that jutted out two feet from the wall and was fashioned as a throne.  Hanging on the sides of the valance and parted in front was soft ivory tulle that could be seen through but represented the veil that was rent in two and opened for us.  The veil was slightly parted though one had to press through to come into this inner sanctum with Him, the very Throne Room of Heaven.  And behind this ivory tulle, was to be a picture of the Lord with his arms opened for us inviting us in to meet with him. This picture was to be a canvass rolled up as a scroll with two rods holding it up from its north and south borders. This picture was commissioned but never hung on the wall, nor was the Throne Valance finished to its completion.

To complete the teaching and function of this room, there was to be a prophetic log that each worshipper would record the scriptures, the experiences, the worship, the encounter they experienced with the Lord.  Also there would be recording equipment hidden away but accessible to the worshipper to record the prophetic sounds and melodies and songs of Heaven that came through these experiences.  I believed there to be a portal of Heaven in this room and that there were angels present.  This room was to be a place of transportation into the Holy of Holies, the Throne Room of Heaven, to be seated in Heavenly places with Christ Jesus.  It was to be a room of preparation for the worshipping priesthood to minister directly unto the Lord, a place where the Glory would reside, and a place of unending worship to an audience of One, the Lord Himself.  This was a place where true worship was birthed in spirit and in truth, outside of the limelight and the applause of onlookers, but celebrated in the secret place. And it was to be an intimate place where the Bride and the Bride Groom could meet and fellowship, a place where the Love song of the Bride would move the heart of her King, a place of romance and the Dance.

This is the fullness of the revelation that was given to me by the Spirit four years ago, and as you can imagine, the enemy was on the prowl to steal, kill, and destroy this vision, as in Revelation 12.  I fully anointed everything in the room and was able to capture the vision with pictures.  I also exercised the teachings of this worship room three times and there was such an exquisite atmosphere of worship and glory present in the room each time.  The final time He told me to come on in and just worship.  A prophetic intercessor came into the room after the vision was put up and she saw the room empty.  The Lord showed her the book of Esther and He said that he was preparing me for my night with the King.  Incidentally this was one year before the movie, “One Night with the King” came out and in the final embrace of the movie, the outer room looked exactly as I had envisioned this room with its pillars and soft ivory fabrics and candles, but most of all the romance of the King and his Bride.  A prophet had come into the church and declared that there was a tabernacle in Houston.  He did not know that 15 feet behind him it stood.  Another prophet had come into the church in February and had a vision of Jesus standing with his arms opened but he was behind a parted veil, because one had to press in to go into that secret place, that inner sanctum of the Holy of Holies.  The worship room was dismantled the Friday before Thanksgiving, awaiting the resurrection of Amos 9:11.

¹¹ “In that day I will restore David’s fallen tent. I will repair its broken places, restore its ruins, and build it as it used to be,                                                                                                   Amos 9:11 NIV

The teachings of the Heavenly Worship Room were published in Chapter 7 “Entering the Holy of Holies” of “Lessons from One Worship Leader to Another” in June 2007 and the “Unlocking Worship Teaching Series” in February 2008.  One final revelation about this room came three weeks prior to our first ministry trip to South Africa in November 2008.  The Lord quickened me that we were currently in the Jewish festival season of the Feast of Tabernacles, (also Feast of Booths or Feast of Sukkot) from October 14^th-22^nd of 2008.  He quickened me to go and see when the Feast of Tabernacles was in the year of 2004.  The Feast of Tabernacles in 2004 was between September 30^th and October 8^th.  It was during this time that I began to receive the revelation of the Heavenly Worship Room, which was a Feast of three tabernacles, the Mosaic, the Davidic, and the New Testament Tabernacle of Jesus Christ.
