From the desk of Steve Shultz:
John Belt had some awesome encounters in the Library Room of Heaven and heard new sounds being released. We've been hearing prophetic chatter about this very thing of a "new sound" from Heaven coming, just like Pentecost. God designed sound to be a powerful stimulant to us. It feeds our spirit, body and soul in many ways.

Library of the Spirit and the Acoustics of Heaven
Acoustics of Heaven: A New Sound of Holy Revolution Being Released
Acts 2:1-2 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from Heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
I was having an encounter in the library of the Holy Spirit. Walking down the aisle, I saw and heard the sound of acoustics coming from the midst of the bookshelves. I pulled out a CD that had a title called "revolution" on the front.
There are new sounds, the acoustics of Heaven, being released through the spirit of revelation. As we walk in the Spirit we will begin to hear these fresh heavenly acoustics of a new sound that will produce revolution and the fire of His presence. Just as in Acts 2, there was a "sound from Heaven" released, and the fire followed the sound. The tongues of fire were released following the sound that was as a rushing mighty wind. The breath of Heaven is being released in a new heavenly acoustics sound with fire and glory.
Table of Fellowship & Community in Communion with God
Acts 2:46-47 So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the Church daily those who were being saved.
This new sound is being released in conjunction with community that is seated around the presence of God. The presence of the Holy Spirit is at the center of this community. Just as it was in the Book of Acts. The Holy Spirit was the new addition to the disciples who then became apostles. The Holy Spirit was in the center of it all. It was His presence that made the difference and gave reason for all the power that was released in the Book of Acts.
Without the Holy Spirit in the center, yielding to His leading, dying to our church programs and predictability, there will be no power period. We must be willing to lay down to the Spirit's leading at all times. We must hunger for the fire of His presence. We must seek for the freshness of His presence. He brings refreshing. Without Him we can hang it up. What is the point anyway without having the Holy Spirit in our midst? What a waste of time to try to be effective in God without any sensitivity to the Holy Spirit.
For those who will yield to the Spirit and make a conscious effort to put Him in the center of our activity there will be genuine community of Believers. There will be a stripping away of the superficiality and a gifting of the sincere and pure fellowship of a people set apart to God. There will be a common heart and mind, for He will be the common ingredient that brings cohesion to our fellowship.
The dining table represents the intimacy of fellowship with God and one another. The Lord desires a people of one heart and mind where His Person is at the center of all activity. Just as the sun is at the center of our universe, so God must be at the center for life to be sustained.
Gazing Into the Face of His Person
Psalm 17:15 As for me, I will see Your face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied when I awake in Your likeness.
With God being at the center there will be a new glow on our faces. The everlasting joy will be upon our heads just as Isaiah prophesied so long ago. Just as Paul spoke about "joy unspeakable and full of the glory," so it will not be mere words on a page in black and white but a living reality in our lives.
The Holy Spirit cannot be at the center and us not experience the power of His joy in the glory of God. Paul told us to rejoice in the Lord always. The reason he could tell us to is because he did rejoice always. He suffered and had all the hard tests and trials. But the glory of God's Spirit was a sure deposit within Him that enabled him to be filled with joy at all times. He knew the power of releasing that joy so that he would receive strength.
David, psalmist and king, knew the power of rejoicing and the joy that accompanied those who ministered to the Lord. God inhabits the praise of His people. Heaven is filled with joy. To breathe in Heaven's atmosphere is to breathe in peace, joy and love in His glory. We will be satisfied when we awake with His countenance upon our faces. God is satisfying. There is nothing disappointing about Him. It is all good! Brightness and joy are our inheritance in Christ. It is the fruit of having the Holy Spirit in the center of our hearts.
Brilliant Colors in His Presence
Revelation 4:3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.
A life of color is a life that has freedom of expression in relationship with God. God is the purest form of Light. The rainbow is found within that light creating a broad spectrum of color and life. The Holy Spirit brings forth the color. Light is composed of the spectrum of a rainbow. Just as a rainbow has many colors, God is light and has beauty and variety in His glory.
It is wrong for churches to be plain and dull. It is a reflection of what is going on spiritually. There should be life, color and creativity being released. Heaven is the most beautiful place! It is far beyond all we can ask or imagine. We can see beauty just in what God has created here on the planet before man had done anything to it. Even what we have here is in a fallen state and it is still very beautiful. God is not gray, dull, legalistic and ugly. He is amazing, incredible, over the top and words cannot begin to describe the glory of who He is. We need God to put color in our lives and settle for nothing less.
Brown Humble Chair of Servanthood
John 13:8 Peter saith unto Him, "Thou shalt never wash my feet." Jesus answered him, "If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with Me."
In this vision I had, I saw God sitting in a humble brown chair. Brown is the color for servanthood. He was seated in this chair at the center. He was the center of attention. His desire is to serve us. As we allow Him to "help" us as the Holy Spirit, the Helper, so we then can serve Him effectively. It is impossible for us to serve Him without allowing the Holy Spirit to help us, serve us. As we allow Him to serve us we can then serve Him and one another through the grace He gives.
It is only when we allow the Lord to serve us that we are able to serve Him. We can do nothing apart from Him. Only through Him can we be a blessing to others.
Walking Through the Holy Spirit Library
John 21:25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.
There are literally unlimited volumes of truth, graces and anointings of the Spirit that are available to us as we take a walk through His library. Dwelling in His glory presence, we have the ability to pull from the resources of Heaven and bring them into this earthly realm of living. Just as Jesus told us to pray His Kingdom come, the heavenly realm of His Kingdom is the reality that we are to usher in. He is the King. We are the kings that bring forth His Kingdom here and now. Every day, do not forget to put on your crown. God has given us a kingly crown that represents His rulership being played out through us.
Just think of all that Jesus did that was recorded and yet John the Beloved tells us that the world could not contain the books if it were all written. This gives us an idea of just how much God desires to pour through us. With Jesus as the forerunner and example, we are called to manifest the same glory of God. He walked on the earth as a man, emptied Himself in such a way that He did not operate in the earth as God. He was filled with the Holy Spirit and yielded Himself to the Spirit as an example for us to walk in the same manner.
When revelation is implemented it becomes experiential and understanding to us. God is ready and willing to take us up into His library of the Holy Spirit. The spirit of wisdom and revelation is available to us as we ascend in our worship to Him. There is so much for us to encounter.
Fire of Prayer Being Released
Revelation 5:8 And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
All of these things bring us to a place of fire and empowerment in His glory. Taking a walk into His library of life, revelation and of the Spirit we will experience His sound. His sound will in turn draw us closer to Him. The melodies of the Spirit being released in our hearts are a way that God connects us. Just as a high speed Internet connection gives us a faster line to move from place to place online, God gets us into a higher speed connection through the sounds of worship. It is the speed of sound, the speed of light in His glory. It has a great combustion effect that fuels the fire of His Presence in our lives.
May the Fire of His Glory Burn in You!
