The Apple of His Eye

Last Monday night was the first time I actually put up my easel and painted during worship. Anyway, the painting I did at the School started with some basic colors, blue and green. Blue represents revelation, prophetic, Holy Spirit, Grace... Green represents new life, new growth. hope & restoration. It's still a WIP (Work In Progress). I have added some tropical elements to it. Akiane described the eyes of Jesus. She said the entire universe was in His eyes. I wanted to paint something similar. If you look close at the painting, it has the island of Maui in the iris of the eye.

I've come back from the conference with a new excitement and anticipation of where God will take me next. God has been increasing my pictures. I was already getting some downloads... I really wanted to see His face badly. I had started a painting before I left for the conference with wanting to paint his face. Eeek! It wasn't at all what I had envisioned. LOL I won't post it here.. It looks like some kind of Byzantine painting. Anyhow, while I was getting a prophetic painting done of me, the girl that painted it, prayed for me and while she put her hand on my forehand.. all of a sudden I saw the face of Jesus SO CLEARLY! It was as if He was standing right in FRONT OF ME! After that, while I was soaking, instead of just getting a picture here and there... I started getting slide shows! Wow!! And... also an open vision that I was in myself. So cool! In this particular vision (it looked like a movie, but I was in it), I found myself walking, then running through a narrow walkway. On each side there were tall bushes... I kept running and all of a sudden I felt myself actually lifing off, above the bushes, into the air, and I kept going up and up, just soaring.. It was exhilirating! I saw the ground get smaller as I was soaring up with Him up in the heavens.

I am excited about the New Renaissance that God is unveiling to us! At the conference I learned that EVERYONE is an artist. I had always thought that only certain people had that gift. But God has created us in His image. Since we are made in His likeness, we can all create and express what is inside of us, how much more if we allow the Holy Spirit to create THROUGH us. All children are artists until the age of 5 when teachers or parents squelch the gift in them by eiter telling them they're supposed to only color in the lines, or, "you're not doing it right," and so on. Kris Vallotton even went as far to say that when a painting is done under the anointing of the Holy Spirit the painting itself becomes a doorway to heaven (a vortex). That is HUGE! Let us all allow God to create through us, whether it's trough art, music, every gift He has given to us.
