Sea of Glass

Yesterday I awoke having had a wonderful dream. I was standing in a clearing with forested area around it. Looking up, I saw what looked like a body of clear water, its boundary forming a flat ceiling above me. It looked heavy and full. I tried to touch it, but it was just out of reach. I jumped up and tried to touch it twice, but it was still out of my reach. Then I went and got my husband Dave, as he is taller. I showed him the water in the sky and asked him what he thought it was. He said “It’s the sea of glass, isn’t it?”

In the next scene I was near the clearing, in a house. Dave came inside and said “It’s sprinkling outside.” This was the end of the dream.

Though I thought the sea above me looked heavy, as if its weight could crush us, the Lord “sprinkled” us with its contents. This morning I spent time in the scriptures, looking at references to the sea of glass. Here is what I found;
• Ez 1:22 – God and His throne were above it, and the living creatures were below it. In this vision Ezekiel says that he saw the likeness of the glory of the Lord (vs 28).

• Hab 2:14 – The knowledge of the glory of the Lord is said to cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Preceding this verse is a description of the Lord burning up the labor of men that was not done in righteousness (building with bloodshed, and establishing with crime) vs 12,13.
• Rev 4:6 – vision of throne room
• Rev 15:2 – sea of glass is mixed with fire, and the saints who overcame are standing next to it

I believe that the Lord is drawing near with His glory to cover the earth with knowledge of Himself, and the purifying knowledge of His ways. He will cause this to sprinkle down on us for His desire is to have a people who are holy, spotless, and ready for Him. Amen.
