Overshadow Me
To overshadow means to cast a shadow upon; there can be no shadow without the presence of light! The light is the sun and the Son, Jesus Christ.
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
Luke 1:35
When God’s power overshadows you, it brings forth the seed, which is the holy thing in you. According to Micah 5:2b, “out of thee shall come forth unto me that which is to rule.” This is the Son being revealed; visions and revelations must follow.
In Mark 9:7, a cloud overshadowed Peter and John on the mountain where Jesus was transfigured. Then a voice came forth giving them revelation. Visions and hearing/perceiving God’s voice accompany being overshadowed. When the power overshadowed Mary, those things (revelations) that were spoken of the child she kept within her heart (Luke 2:19). A life that has brought forth the holy thing through the overshadowing of the Highest cannot take lightly the promises of God. They must be kept continuously in our hearts until the time of showing forth.
One way in which you can experience the overshadowing of the Highest is to be like Mary; to humble yourself and say, “May it be unto me as You have said Lord!” Only trust and believe! True overshadowing masks the flesh, you are no longer yourself. To the point that your own shadow heals others!
Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
Acts 5:15
Even old testament prophets experienced the overshadowing. Take Moses for example, God’s friend. He was so favored of the Lord that he used a rod to wrought mighty miracles. He was a god to his enemies (Exodus 7:1). Without a mountaintop experience, God cannot overshadow us. And Jesus said greater works shall we do.
We pray that in this month of June God’s divine power and favor will rest upon us. As the zeal of the Lord overshadows and consumes us, may we bring forth remarkable miracles with eternal impact for God’s kingdom, in Jesus’ Name!
For His Purpose,
