The Glory Road & The Road of Poverty
by JRP Ministry Staff on 09/25/20
I saw leanness that would come in the days ahead, but it was part of one of two paths. We are coming to a fork in the road. One road led people into poverty and lack; the people on this road had been led down a path as they served the god of money. They were poor and barely clothed.
I then saw the other road. I saw the hand of the Lord pouring out His glory along this road. It is what I will call the "Glory Road". The Lord will begin to make a differentiation between those who follow Him and those who follow the god of money. Those on the Glory Road will be supplied and Isaiah 60 provides a scriptural context for what we can expect. There is no doubt that taking the Glory Road will require faith, revelation and obedience.
The prophet Isaiah prophesies saying, "Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. For behold, darkness will cover the earth, and deep darkness the peoples; but the Lord will rise upon you, and His glory will appear upon you." (Isa 60:1-2)
I saw the people on the road of poverty begin to move over to the Glory Road. They saw the difference between where they were and what was being poured out upon those on the Glory Road. As the Lord's glory rises upon us, Isaiah prophesied (Is 60:3) that, "The nations will come to your light and kings to the brightness of your rising." The rest of Isaiah chapter 60 speaks of a mighty harvest of souls and nations and an abundance of wealth coming to the Church. What is promised in this chapter will come to pass.
