After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here ….”
(Rev. 4:1)

Every committed believer I know is sensing the upward call of the Lord these days. All who are tuned into the voice of the Spirit are hearing Him say in one way or another, “Come up!”

The level of spiritual sensitivity and power we enjoyed in times past simply isn’t satisfactory anymore. God is giving us a deeper hunger for a greater relationship with Him. He is igniting within us a fiery desire to more powerfully advance the kingdom of God. Why?

Because the end of this age is rapidly approaching. There is a great and mighty work for the Lord that needs to be done. And we must come up to higher spiritual places to do it. We must come up to higher places in God.

Some years ago during a prayer meeting in Colorado, a prophetic declaration came forth that perfectly captured what is happening right now with three unforgettable words:

Places are calling.

Oh, how true that is today! So many places and positions in the realm of the spirit are calling out to be occupied by members of the body of Christ!

Every single child of God has a calling to fulfill in this earth. Every one of us has a spiritual supply to give, prayers to pray, and territory to occupy for Jesus. We all have vital parts to play and places to fill in this end-time work of God.

In our hearts, every one of us can sense it. We have all heard, however faintly, our God-ordained places calling to us.

Now it is time for us to answer.

It is time for us to come up.
