Unbridled Worship
As I looked into the spirit, I saw the image of a stallion standing on a hill, and in the background behind the horse was a large snow-capped mountain. The time of day was dawn, and as the sun rose, shades of pink filled the sky. As I looked closely at the stallion, it was wearing a bridle and although the full figure of a person was not visible, I saw a hand controlling the horse and containing its movements. As I watched the stallion, it tried to move, but the hand controlling the bridle would not allow it and forced it to stand still. The stallion tried to move again, but the hand stilled it once more. But as the sun rose higher in the sky, it burned the hand allowing the bridle to fall away and the stallion to run free.
The Lord declares today:
My beloved, today I want your unbridled worship. This is what I require as I am calling you to come higher. I am awakening in you this unbridled passion for me. Your worship of Me has been restricted as you have been made to conform to what is socially acceptable. Many in the church have been contained by “appearance” and by those who feel that unbridled worship is undignified. “You look silly!” they say. “You sound ridiculous!” they say, “This is not how we do things here,” they say.
But while the hand of society has said that you can only worship a certain way… I SAY that unbridled is what I require.
I require a worship that is born out of the purity of heart and the reverential awe of me, worship that is driven by a desire to meet with me and encounter me, one that delights my heart.
Beloved, you have been contained for far too long.
My desire for you is to break loose and to run free. Today as a new day dawns on you, I remove the bridle from your mouth and I say to you, to run freely with the wind of my
spirit!
Activation: As a prophetic act, stand where you are and remove the bridle from your mouth. As you do so say, “In the name of Jesus, I remove the bridle of constraints that have been placed on me. I decree that I am free to worship God and celebrate His goodness. I will leap and dance with unbridled adoration before the One who chose me. And now, I choose to run with the wind of His spirit.” As you decree the last sentence, start running in place.
2 Samuel 6:20-21 (ESV)
And David returned to bless his household. But Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David and said, “How the king of Israel honored himself today, uncovering himself today before the eyes of his servants’ female servants, as one of the vulgar fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!” And David said to Michal, “It was before the Lord, who chose me above your father and above all his house, to appoint me as prince over Israel, the people of the Lord—and I will celebrate before the Lord.”
2 Corinthians 2:2-4 (TPT)
Someone I’m acquainted with, who was in union with Christ, was swept away fourteen years ago in an ecstatic experience. He was taken into the third heaven, but I’m not sure if he was in his body or out of his body – only God knows. And I know that this man (again, I’m not sure if he was still in his body or taken out of his body – God knows) was caught up in an ecstatic experience and brought into paradise, where he overheard many wondrous and inexpressible secrets that were so sacred that no mortal is permitted to repeat them.
