Glory, glory to my Jesus
November 19, 2005, a historical moment of course. Auburn 28 Alabama 18. But, this will perish. Don't get me wrong, I had a marvelous time cheering on the Auburn Tigers yesterday, but as I was at the game, all I could think about was the Lord being glorified in the Jordan-Hare stadium. He was definitely there yesterday! I most certainly felt His presence. I could feel the Holy Spirit moving in that place. Usually when I go to a game I get chills from Tiger flying down to the field, but this time I had chills because I knew the Lord is going to do some amazing things in our near future. Things like Tiger and Aubie and cheering on the defense is not as special to me as they once were. Jesus, the Holy Spirit invading the town, and us lifting up the name of our Lord has become everything to me now. I am in just in awe of what the Lord is going to do.
As Jillian and I were waiting for the first quarter to start, a white feather came floating down from the sky just right above our heads. Of all things to see at an Auburn football game in the Jordan-Hare stadium...Wow! I must think for a moment...It was almost like a dream...like a vision, but it was real...it was a God thing.
So, the game comes around and of course me, Jillian, Matt, and John-Michael are excited to see Auburn winning. We were just having a great time hanging out with each other and experiencing the game. Well, you know the song that the Auburn band plays after a touchdown? Glory, glory to Auburn--A-U-B-U-R-N? I heard Jillian sing the same song, but she replaced Auburn with Jesus. I thought that was great! So, during the whole game I would sing, "Glory, glory to my Jesus! Glory, glory to my Jesus! Glory, glory to my Jesus! J-E-S-U-S Jesus!" So, there I was singing this song from the top of my voice praising my Savior and looking up to the sky. Wow! The sky was AMAZING! All I could think about was how beautiful the sky was. It was so glorious. The colors of the clouds were truly amazing! Then I was reminded of Jonathan's blog. If you haven't read it yet, you should. Jonathan talked about a cloud of smoke over the stadium. When I was there yesterday, I could totally see that. Of course there wasn't any smoke there, but the clouds had a smokey touch to them. And then later on during the game, it was like the clouds opened up. It was almost like I could see heaven coming down on the stadium. Wow, I wish you could have seen it. It was like the Lord opened up the sky to look down on us at the Jordan-Hare. Oh Jesus! You are amazing! Thank you Lord! Man, there are not words to describe how glorious the sky and the clouds were. It was like I could almost see what it is going to look like when the revival comes to Auburn. It was like the Lord was giving me a taste of what is to come. And then another amazing thing happened during the game. Another feather fell down from the sky. It was like the Lord saying, "Yes, I am coming and you will see." Oh Lord, come! Come!! So that we all may see!!
