Oftentimes, we hear people mention “the glory realm” and “realms of glory”. Do we really know that that means?
Some things in the Spirit cannot be grasped by faith alone. There are also some things in the Spirit that cannot be released through an anointing. That’s why we must learn how to bring forth the glory. Faith says God is present, the anointing says God rewards, but the glory says, ‘I Am…’
What is the glory? God is the glory, and the glory is God. The glory is God’s fullness. It’s His manifest presence, His character, His nature, His ability, His provision and the weight and splendor of His majesty. It is the essence of His beauty. The glory is all that He is and all that He has. Everything about God is glorious, and He wants us to know Him in the fullness of His glory because He is the God of glory (See Ps. 138:5; Acts 7:2).

God gives us His fullness. That is the glory.
The Glory War
Therefore, in a glory war, Satan wants to give us and the world his fullness.
We can see this traced back to the Garden of Eden with the stratagem of enticing Adam and Eve to partake from the indulgent tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which would introduce and open them up to the sin nature.
Both trees still exist today. We eat from either tree when we should only be partaking from the tree of life.
In fact, Ephesus had this issue, as well. For that reason, when they would learn to overcome the one thing blocking them, Jesus said that He would allow them to eat fruit from the tree of knowledge.
That is a word for us today, and a major portion of this blog.
The demonic overlords all say, “How can we put our nature in them to awaken self-will, detouring them from the orientation of Yahweh their God?” A better question: is there an alien nature (spirit) operating in us from the venom at the injection site of the evil ones?
AHS (Alien Human Spirit)
The innovative researcher and educator, Arthur Burk, actively coined the term, demonstrating his role as a trailblazer in his field
Burk’s work on the “Alien Human Spirit” delves into the spiritual realm, particularly focusing on the concept of spirits that are not native to the human body. His teachings cover diagnostic skills and techniques for identifying and evicting these alien spirits.
Burk believes that the human spirit and the Holy Spirit are distinct yet work together, each contributing uniquely to an individual’s life.
“He explores the impact of the human spirit on mental health and overall well-being, suggesting that while the body and soul may be affected by conditions like autism, the spirit remains unaffected” (Addison, 2018).
This perspective offers a unique view on personal growth and spiritual warfare, aiming to empower individuals to understand and nurture their spirit alongside their physical and emotional selves.
AHS Signs & Nurturing the Human Spirit
AHS symptoms are:
- Unexplained physical symptoms: Persistent health issues that do not respond to conventional treatment and lack a clear medical diagnosis.
- Emotional disturbances: Sudden changes in mood or feelings that are out of character for the individual.
- Mental fog: Difficulty concentrating, confusion, or feeling mentally ‘blocked’ without an apparent cause.
- Relational issues: Strained relationships and unusual interpersonal conflicts that arise without a logical explanation.
- Spiritual sensitivity: A heightened awareness of spiritual matters, accompanied by unusual spiritual experiences.
In summary, the idea is to repair the spirit man from damage from pain and trauma, or any or event or thing that infirm (weaken) the human spirit, such as dejection, rejection, hopelessness, denial of pain.
We’ve come to a point in history where God is calling us face-to-face with ourselves and we must truly see and address what is in us that is viral and cancerous.
Because the spirit of man is the lamp the Lord uses to bring light to the rest of the human being (the soul and the body). Therefore, God is calling us to deal with unpacking the glory in our spirits and deal with the marring.
Who would have thought, deliverance for the spirit? Usually, we take deliverance solely for the body or even the soul. Still, there is even deliverance we can undergo for our brain or other vital organs.
As the writer of Hebrews stated: Let’s get on with it! We must press on to the higher call in Christ Jesus. There are things beyond.
The Beckoning of Python
People of God, we’re in spiritual warfare with beings we barely have scratched the surface of intel or succeeding in victory.
In Python at the Threshold: Dealing with the Prince of Magic – Emergent Army Ministries blog, I shared that Python conceals truth.
We are meant to observe the truth, experience it, and understand it fully. Seeing is a prophetic gift.
With its magic, Python blinds God’s children’s eyes.
And when it coils to suffocate, Python aims to completely desensitize us from experiencing God, especially seers. Python is an enemy against seers and seer-prophets, which includes land (places) and time with a seer anointing, too, e.g., Austin, TX.
We’re in a war of whose glory are we going to put on or whose glory (God’s) are we going to allow to fall off us?
Fractals
Fractals help us connect to the muchness of God and the spirit world. Also, how demons can deceive and trick us into operating out of wrong motives, wrong power, and vainglory.
A fractal is a never-ending pattern that repeats itself at different scales.
These infinitely complex shapes are self-similar, meaning they look similar when you zoom in or out.
Mountains are fractals. So are trees. Days and weeks, too, e.g., the creation days.
You know, an element of where we are in history is standing at mountains and figuring out:
- Which ones we’re leaving behind
- Which ones we’re conquering
- Which ones are we binding and denying
- Which one are we entering
Spiritually, mountains represent kingdoms. Kingdoms have kings, edicts, personality, domain, and rulership.
Thus, which mountain will we rule from, and which mountain will we deliver over to the advancement of God’s?
In the atmosphere of glory, we no longer require preaching and prophesying. Moreover, the presence of such a divine environment renders these acts unnecessary. God gave us these tools in the anointing to establish the glory realm. Once it comes, we yield to the revelation of heaven. His instruction is enough.
The Beckoning of the Lord
We’ve shifted this year. It’s as if we’ve fast-forwarded and now just like we entered a new era in 2020, we’ve entered a brand-new time in 2024 and beyond.
Therefore, it is paramount we understand the operational function of our spirit man and life in the spirit. God earnestly strives to bring us to maturity, to become disciplined children.
During a gathering in March ’24, the Spirit of the Lord began to speak to me personally (directly from Him to me). I’ll share what I feel I should…what I saw in a vision.
I saw the earth. One side of it was a copper shadow like the sun shining on the earth. The background was dark, not demonic but dark. The other half was blue. I then saw a body of water and a drop of water from the sky hit the body of water. Again, this was two sides, half and half, same colors. Then, I saw two trees. The same thing as before with the others. There are two trees still. [God asked me], “Which seed are you pulling from? Will you pull from the tree of life or the tree of the knowledge of good and evil?
God beckons us to Mount Zion away from Mount Sinai. The latter served its purpose, yet many of us are still functioning as if it’s viable. We’re pulling from an antiquated power source, experience, and event. (That’ll preach!)
Mirroring Samson, Much?
We know there was no AHS in Samson…internally. Still, there were external forces attempting to curtail and trap him.
As the trap was laid, what was internal in him, switched on and remained on.
Samson was consecrated (dedicated, set apart, sanctified) as a Nazarite. While we’re not Nazarites, we are consecrated unto the Lord as a royal priesthood and as kings.
Also, like Samson we’re strong and mighty, especially in today’s time. Chiefly, in the vein of the apostolic-prophetic. Nevertheless, we have baggage–baggage we might not be dealing with. For this reason, lest we end up like Samson, we must seek deliverance whether it’s solo or administered by others.
How can God’s glory sit next to a table full of garbage? How can two spirits inhabit one without one dominating? The same is true for two natures: the glory nature and the sin nature.
Jesus delivered us from the sin nature, but we can still attach ourselves to its remnants through worldliness when we operate in the flesh which opens doors to the demonic.
There awaits Python as a threshold guardian to test our choices at the threshold.
Have we given love? Have we genuinely revered and sanctified God within our beings? Are we devoting our entire being—heart, mind, soul, and strength—to loving Him? Does He hold the supreme position? Does He reign within us daily?
Samson’s Achille’s heel was Delilah who ensnared and tempted him to become feeble at the spiritual threshold of choices and consequences.
We expect ourselves to be catapulted into a spiritual plane where we answer questions to get pass the door. No! No! No! Thresholds are ever-before us day-to-day. Though we don’t see them in the natural, they are present.
The Knowledge of God
Proverbs 1 tells us that fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Samson became a fool in all of his might and victories–the hailed champ of Israel, the feared one by Israel’s enemies. In God’s eyes, he was a fool.
Do we really know God? There is an element of knowing facts about Him, His history (as much as we can), and His ways. Albeit “the knowledge of God” is to be in union with Him. Intimacy.
Samson was tip toeing in two streams as if he didn’t have eternal commitments to fulfill in earth. He took his life and mission lightly for self-pleasure. And God allowed it to occur for a time until Samson’s choice to go down a road of unrepentance caused the lifting of God’s glory off of him.
Are there any similarities within us to Samson?
Relying on giftedness and full of pride, Samson continued in His ways instead of the small, narrow path of fearing the Lord, which has a dual nature: the awe of God and the terror of God. Both are required! We haven’t achieved either yet in the measure we must.
If we truly were in awe of God, we wouldn’t trade His glory for frivolous, fleeting moments because we fear Him. Therefore, we don’t just need a dose of the fear (trembling and terror) of God, we need to be impressed by the treasure we have! Because when we see Him, we’re transformed.
To see Him rightly, seeing Him in all His splendor, gazing at His beauty in His marvelous courtyard and chambers is transformative! This is why threshold guardians like Python impede the gift of sight or seeing in the spirit–Python muddies traversing the supernatural to the third heaven. Instead, we may traverse the supernatural, but it’ll be from enchanted eyes like Adam and Eve where we’re operating in and from the second heaven.
That’s the problem: the love for God, for the world He died for, and for our neighbors have grown cold. We’ve become stale, common. Ungrateful. Faithless. All these are the recipe for lacking awe for God, meaning we do not have the knowledge of God (intimacy).
How can we speak about Him or for Him as His emissaries when we don’t know Him? Charlatans. Hypocrites. Imposters.
Accessing the Glory
Character sustains anointing and giftedness. Yet, God’s glory falls on us because of our relationship to put Him first in our choices. Displaying our love and devotion to Him.
He’s after faithfulness and fiery lovers because He is a faithful lover! The glory realm is accessible to passionate pursuers and servants.
Elisha tapped into the glory with the double portion because he walked with Elijah and served Elijah for six years.
Joshua led the holy revolt of the kingdom of God with Israel against the giants in their land because he followed and pursued the glory of God and served Moses.
The glory is God’s character, name, honor – Kabod. The glory is God’s presence – Shekinah.
Samson accessed God’s glory until he lost it. In a comparable manner, Saul once held God’s glory, but it was subsequently taken away from him.
Most importantly, now is the time to seek the Lord while He is near. We must expose our true selves to Him, to break free from the snares that entangle us.
Whose Glory? Whose Garment?
Fractals. There are still two trees from which we can pull. There are still mountains from which we can attempt to access God. How are we choosing?
Will we wear our own cloak and fall in pride like Satan and Samson, or will we be clothed in the array of God’s glory?
Will we go from glory to failure like Samson? One point riding the clouds and defeating God’s enemies with His power, while another time surrendering to temptation from lack of discipline and love for God then utterly coming to a sad, destructive end.
Deliverance is non-optional in this season.
