LION
OF
GOLDEN GLORY AND WAR
By Rosie Lovejoy

As the new rendition of Amazing Grace was being sung during an afternoon of worship, I found myself in a familiar place….
The musicians were singing AMAZING GRACE. I found myself in the spirit on my face before the LION. I was grasping HIS feet, and sobbing and confessing, and feeling so very grateful to the LORD for HIS mercy and kindness to me. I wept and wept, grasping tightly to HIS paws -- so grateful, so very grateful to HIM.
After a long time of weeping, I arose to see that a large, gold, jeweled crown now sat on HIS head. HE very much looked like the KING that HE is, beautiful and golden.
Again I leapt to the ground, face down, holding tightly to HIS paws. I did not want to be standing before my KING. In previous visions I have seen too many people being burnt up (Christians included) who stood arrogantly or foolishly before the KING.
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom." And I have learned that it is just plain stupid to refuse to recognize the KING’S sovereignty.
And then I did do something really unexpected. I got up and mounted HIS back, as if I expected to go for a ride with HIM. I couldn’t believe I had done that!!!! I was filled with panic, slid off HIS back, and once again threw myself down at HIS feet, telling HIM I hadn’t a clue why I was behaving this way, and I was sorry for being so disrespectful.
And then, almost as if propelled, I arose and once again climbed onto HIS back. HE immediately began to walk down a rocky mountain path.
Once again I became very anxious, as I didn’t want to go downhill, I wanted to go uphill. Experience with my LION has taught me that journeys downhill usually result in my seeing something I do not want to see. And so I opened my eyes in the natural, and continued to enthusiastically worship, hoping the vision would just go away. It did not…
The LION continued to carefully walk downhill. The ground was rocky and dusty, the vegetation was sparse, and it appeared to be approaching dusk.
Off in the distance I heard the sounds of war. There were explosions and puffs of smoke. I saw an urban area, and fighting was fierce and fiery. I knew it was my country, and the fighting was here, on my soil. I was so sick at heart I wanted to throw up. I was so nauseous I could barely stay on HIS back. I did not want to see this!!!!!!!!
And then, off to the side of the fierce fighting, I saw a large golden mist in the sky. From that mist gold dust was raining down, a thick heavy rain like one sees during a thunderstorm. The glory was pouring down and the battle was raging.
"THIS IS HOW IT WILL BE," HE stated.
"THERE WILL BE JUDGMENT AND GLORY AT THE SAME TIME."
I sat on HIS back, watching the fierce fighting and watching the golden glory rain down as the vision faded away.
I want to personally comment on this vision.
I have been shown war on
I have been told that any prophet who prophesies negative things on the horizon is a false prophet. We are only to encourage, edify, and exhort. That is what "New Testament" prophets do.
I don’t consider myself a prophet at all. I am simply someone who has been
blessed to meet my KING in a way that is very joyful and personal to me. I do
not doubt for a moment that very somber times are on the horizon for the
