THE BRIDE'S ADORNMENTS: THE GLORY OF GOD
Prophecy given through Barbara A. Williams, March 20, 1999

The Word of the Lord is that "His Glory is to rest upon His bride. My Glory upon My bride," says the Lord, "My Glory upon My bride," says the Spirit of God.

"My Glory is to rest upon My bride," says the Spirit of the Living God. "My Chosen," says the Lord, "My Chosen," says the Lord. "For does not each man when he is determining to marry go out and look, and go out and pick, and go out and choose one suitable," says the Spirit of the Living God. "And so it is with Me," says the Spirit of God. "For My eyes roam too and fro over the earth looking for someone whose heart is perfect toward Me. And that is the one that I desire to call unto Myself to make that one My very own," says the Spirit of God. "To make that one My bride. And as I call and I woo those that I am wooing with cords of love, I call and I begin to groom," says the Spirit of the Lord. "That is why the male is called the groom," says the Lord. "Because he is the one that grooms the bride and fashions her and makes her what he desires that she should be," says the Spirit. "He does it in a loving way. He does it with a sacrificial love. He does it by allowing the bride to be what she's called to be. That she might be adorned in a greater and greater fashion and greater and greater adornments and greater and greater and greater glory," says the Spirit of the Living God.

"Do you not have traditions on the earth in a marriage," says the Spirit of God. "That after so many years, the bride is given this, and so many years the couple receives that. And it goes on and on until the silver and the golden," says the Spirit of the Living God. "And so it is with My bride that I choose to adorn with My Glory ," says the Spirit. "For you begin with a little glory, and then you go on to a new glory, and to a greater and greater glory," says the Spirit of the Lord. "And that glory is ability in Me," says the Lord. "That Glory is knowledge of Me, relationship with Me and anointing that you take on as you receive more of My Glory," says the Spirit of the Lord.

"And I am the groom. I am the bridegroom. I am the one that adorns you," says the Lord. "I am the one who is the giver of gifts. I am the one who is the giver of anointings. I am the one who is the giver of positions and places," says the Spirit of God. "Not Man. Don't receive the tattered rags of man. Don't receive the accolades of man. Don't the receive the positions of men; don't even covet those things," says the Spirit of God. "For they will never hold up under the weight of the glory that I plan to adorn My bride with.

"So strip off ALL of the old things. Strip off all of your old fears, your old adornments, your old things, your old accomplishments, things that you felt good about yourself in. Strip those off, for I have better things for you," says the Spirit. "I've better things for My bride. I have things that you have not yet seen. You can't even comprehend. It would blow your mind," says the Spirit of God. "To think of what I have for you. That's why I've ordained for you just to walk in it. Just to put it on and walk in it at the appointed time," says the Spirit of God.

"Many things I cannot reveal to carnal minds," says the Spirit. "Many things you would steal from yourself if I were to show them to you in advance," says the Spirit of God. "And so I save them up for those that I choose, those who are the called and the faithful, those who are the ones that are being prepared in the secret place, not the public place," says the Spirit of God. "Those that I deal with in private, not in public," says the Spirit of God. "Those that are the hidden ones," says the Spirit of God. "Those that I court in the secret place," says the Spirit of God. "And those that are sold out to Me," says the Lord, "who have promised Me that they would give up all in exchange for what I have for them as a true bride would," says the Spirit of God. "As a faithful bride would," says the Spirit of God. "And so as I begin to reveal Myself to My beloved; As I begin to reveal Myself to My betrothed; As I begin to reveal Myself to the bride who is called unto Me," says the Spirit. "Then I will begin to adorn you with the right things: the right clothing, the right anointings, the right wisdom. Everything that I have is yours," says the Spirit. "For I am a faithful husband. I'm a faithful provider. I am a sacrificial lover," says the Spirit of God. "And I will give you everything that you need, so look unto Me for everything," says the Lord. "Look unto Me for all provision, for all wisdom. And the things that I don't possess and you don't see right away are on order," says the Spirit. "They are coming," says the Spirit of God. "They are on the way," says the Lord. "They are on the way," says the Spirit of God. "They are on the way," says the Spirit of the Living God.

"So trust Me in this. I have many things for you. Things you haven't seen yet. You think you know it all, but you ain't seen nothing yet," says the Spirit of God. "I've many things that you don't have a clue about," says the Spirit of God. "So hold on. Hold fast to that which you know of Me. For that relationship, that knowledge of Me I need to build on to build a new knowledge on," says the Spirit. "What you know to be true of Me, Hold onto that and I will build onto that more and greater knowledge of Me," says the Spirit. "And watch what I do through you. Watch what I do through your hands, through your mouth, through your voice. Watch what I do through you. Watch what I do. Watch what I do. Watch if My Glory is not revealed through you," says the Spirit of the Living God.
