There He stood at the top of the mountain beckoning to me down in the 
valley, to come up higher in Him. Then looking around in the low valley, 
saw a green smooth path leading up the mountain side, but it led away 
from Him. It was a rough side which lead straight up to Him. Immediately, 
the decision was made, and my feet began the climb. Upon arrival, He was 
not there! Where did He go? Did He elude me? My feet then escaped 
some deadly traps on top of the mountain. Soon after overcoming discovered  
an unusual sight, people walking on a sea of glass and if that was not enough: 
there before me, the most beautiful river flowing like in the garden of Eden. While 
gazing upon its beauty, awakened saying, ” I’m going to make it.” Yes, it was a 
dream, yet it gave me hope and once again I was healed! These words caused me 

to sit up in bed at 2am in the morning, ” Come up Higher in the way you are living, 
come up higher from the cares of this life. Come up higher in your study of the 
word, and in your prayer life. Come up higher, for the wages of sin is death. It 
is time to unwrap the gifts I have given to you, which will activate My river to flow 
abundantly from My throne to you! Come up higher from the noise of the nay Sayers, 
and all who oppose My will and purpose for your life! Come up higher to receive 
My specific instructions for your life. Come up higher to see more clearly and to truly 
understand the deep and hidden things. No more will you wander around in darkness. 
The light of Jesus Christ is guiding your every step, leading you to the table I have 
prepared for you! Come up higher and you will be able to really love those who attempt 
to destroy My purpose and will for your life! Come up higher to be transformed in My 
presence. ” Still sitting, the word resounded from Isaiah 55:8-11. (8) ” For My thoughts 
are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways, says the LORD.” (9) ” For as the 
heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than yours, and My thoughts 
than your thoughts.” (10) ” For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and 
do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give 
seed to the Sower and bread to the eater, ” (11) ” So shall My word be that goes forth 
from My mouth, it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and 
it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. And be led out with peace; The mountains 
and the hills shall break forth into singing before you, and all the trees of the field shall 
clap their hands. ” Being reminded of the Psalmist David as he fled to the refuge of Abba 
Father’s presence. Read it for yourself from the Book of Psalm 61:1-5 & 8. (1) ” Hear my, 
O God, attend to my prayer,” (2) ” From the end of the earth I will cry to you, when my 
heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock that is higher than I. ” (3) ” For You have been 
a shelter for me, a strong tower from the enemy. ” (4) ” I will abide in Your tabernacle for 
ever, I will trust in the shelter of Your wings. Selah. ” Pause and calmly think about that as 
you focus on verse (5) ” For you O God have heard my vows, you have given me the 
heritage of those who fear Your name.” (8) ” So, I will sing to Your name forever; that I may 
daily perform my vows. ” 
 
Friend, despite what you are going through amid it all, stop! Take a deep breath in, 
now breathe out……There! Question, can you hear Yahweh, saying to you, come up higher ? 
The word is resounding this time from the Book of Revelation chapter 22. Jesus is speaking, 
(12) ” And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give everyone according 
to his work. ” (13) ” I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning, and the End, the First and the 
Last. ” Yahweh, says to you and He says to me, (14) ” Blessed are those who do His commandments that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates of the city.” 
Beware of what is outside of Him as He calls you to come up higher! (15) ” But outside are dogs 
and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices 
a lie. ” COME UP HIGHER! (17) ” And the Spirit and the bride say, ” Come! And let him who 
hears say, ” Come! ” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of 
life freely.” Come up higher today! Tomorrow may be too late…. COME UP HIGHER!
