Here I was, standing just before the gate
Trembling, and I would have to say, I was in awe
It was like nothing I have seen at all
I was struck by the cloud that hovered over the courtyard
Just inside the gate
The glowing metal of the Iron gate
Was covered with sapphires and rubies
There could be no mistake of it’s beauty
On each side of the gate, whirling wheels
Covered by so many eyes that held me still
Inside the wheels, coals covered with fire
Yet they seemed as though they were not burned
Then my attention was turned, as my eyes looked up from the wheels
Standing so tall and glorious were Cherubim so magnificent
Stood as a messenger before the gate, I was covered in chills
I saw four faces, the face of a human, an eagle, a cherub and a lion
Then I saw the glory of the Lord appear in the courtyard under the cloud
It was what appeared to be a rainbow in the clouds
A voice rang out “Glory to Zion”, from the mouth of the lion
“Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed
He is worthy to rely upon
Then from the mouth of the eagle
Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength
They will soar on wings like eagles
They will run and not grow weary
They will walk and not be faint
Then what looked to be a human hand stretch out from behind his wings
In his hands an eagle. He placed it on my back and wings formed to me
With his other hand, a lion that formed into a sword
He placed it in my hand and the human face said ” carry this in one accord”
He placed a belt around my waist, a helmet on my head, a breast plate on my chest
He then placed a robe of many colors around me and said “rest, you are redeemed”
Place these sandals on your feet, and this ring on your finger
So you will always remeber your a son to a king
Then the face of the Cherub gave a message from the Lord
“Now go and set the captives free”
The Cherubim smiled at me and said
“There is a battle to win, so fight”
Then the voice of the Lord rang out from the courtyard
“I am with you”
In conjunction with my last post (The River Of God) I believe the message of the cherubim is, on the highway to holiness, for my walk to produce the river of God, I must fight to be a better husband, father, friend and servant of God to all those Gods puts on my path! I’m sure if I do, before I enter heaven, every face on the Cherubim will smile at me before I enter!
