Five Minute Friday ~ Turn

John turned to see the One that was like the Son of Man, he turned to see the One who has hair as white as wool, he turned to see Jesus. When he turned, he turned in amazement, he turned in anticipation. He turned to see the voice, the voice that is as the sound of many waters.

Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. Revelations 1:12-13 (NKJV)

Have we turned to see this voice? Have we turned to see the One who is fairer than the sons of men. Do we even have an anticipation or an expectation to see the voice. We need to have a desire to encounter God in a new dimension, to receive new revelation concerning His person and concerning who He is.


Encountering God is encountering the voice. Encountering Him changes us and changes our mindsets. We are then changed from glory to glory because the things we saw as important or no longer that important to us and we are then consumed by the One who is the All Consuming Fire.

Consume us as we turn to see You. Consume us as we turn to see the voice that we may be changed, that we may be ruined and that we may see the fullness and may understand what is really important and that is You.

As we turn, we encounter You.

  1. This is so beautiful. I do NOT want to keep his voice behind me. Oh for the grace to turn and see Him. What a wonderful word on the FMF prompt. Glad to be your "neighbor" there this week.
