What Was Previously Hidden Is Being Revealed
Throughout Scripture, God is revealed as one who is forever on the move. From Genesis to Revelation, the Lord is consistently portrayed as advancing toward a divine and glorious destination—the conclusion of His transcendent plan. His triumph, already secured at the cross, is approaching its fullness. Psalm 68 makes a notable and remarkable statement: "They have seen Your procession, O God, the procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary" (v. 24 NKJV).
This is a prophetic passage showing that His supernatural movement is becoming visible to the eyes of our hearts. His procession is appearing because it is approaching its climax. What was previously hidden is now beginning to be revealed. His procession approaches with a victorious declaration, describing Yahweh as arising, His enemies being scattered, and captivity being led captive.
The Prophetic Processional Story in Scripture
Embedded within this Psalm are prophetic implications that extend beyond David's historical context. Paul later confirmed this when he quoted Psalm 68 in Ephesians 4, identifying a measure of its fulfillment in Christ's ascension to His throne. This Psalm is a prophetic revelation of Messiah's victory, ascension, and also depicts the grand procession of His glorious return.
Ascension was the beginning of a transcendent plan in which the Lord began His rule over creation through the sons and daughters of God. Having disarmed the principalities and powers, He authorized His great triumph to continue through His Body—His apostolic saints. Victory secured in Christ is now administered through a governing body of sons and daughters. In this context, Paul makes this remarkable statement:
"Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place." (2 Corinthians 2:14 NKJV)
"But thank God! He has made us His captives and continues to lead us along in Christ's triumphal procession. Now He uses us to spread the knowledge of Christ everywhere, like a sweet perfume." (2 Corinthians 2:14 NLT)
Paul's message is deliberate and authoritative: God always leads us in triumph! The Lord's triumph is reflected in His people and carried by them into all spheres. The ascension dynamic of Psalm 68, revealed prophetically, is released experientially in 2 Corinthians through an ascended people seated with Him.
The Ekklesia—the Fragrance of Christ
The Ekklesia is the vessel through which Christ's victory advances through history, releasing the knowledge and presence of God as a fragrance. This fragrance carries a dynamic that stirs controversy and division. It brings life to those aligned with Christ and exposes resistance in those who are not. The glory of His presence reveals what is in the heart of man and the structures that have been prepared and ready to receive it. (Photo via Pixabay)
"For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing. To the one we are the aroma of death leading to death, and to the other the aroma of life leading to life." (2 Corinthians 2:15–16 NKJV)
Preparing for the King of Glory
As in Psalm 68, Psalm 24 also reveals the eschatological aspect of the Messiah's returning procession, spoken to the generation who have prepared for Him and who seek His face:
"Open up, ancient gates! Open up, ancient doors, and let the King of glory enter. Who is the King of glory? The LORD of Heaven's Armies—He is the King of glory." (Psalm 24:9–10 NLT)
The King of the armies of Heaven is coming, and the gates of His people must open to the heavenly procession. The Lord will have a generation made ready, an apostolic people inducted into His army and integrated into the procession. The King's arrival requires preparation. Glory will not be imparted to structures incapable of sustaining it. The Lord is the King of glory, preparing to enter the realm of earth!
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." (Revelation 3:20–22 NKJV)
In an end-time context, the gates represent personal, spiritual, relational, and governmental thresholds, such as church systems, leadership structures, and all cultures, cities, and nations. The coming procession will stand before the gates of history, commanding entry. To some, it is "the aroma of death leading to death," and to others, "the aroma of life leading to life." However, to those who are ready and to those who are not, He is coming!
The Heavenly Blueprint: Clean Hands and a Pure Heart
In many of the words I have written about glory, I have shown that in Scripture glory is consistently connected to order. Only when a structure is completed according to the heavenly blueprint and plumb line of Christ does it receive glory. (Photo via Unsplash)
Moses was warned that the tabernacle was to be built precisely according to the pattern revealed... before the glory came. Solomon completed the temple according to the divine design given to David, his father, before the cloud of glory descended. In the same way, Psalm 24 reveals that end-time glory requires prepared gates, architecture capable of sustaining presence—clean hands and a pure heart, reflecting the complete blueprint of Messiah.
Taken together, these three Scripture passages reveal a coherent movement across time. Psalm 68 prophetically depicts the procession. The Gospels embody it in Christ, and the Epistles reveal it moving through the earth through the Ekklesia. Psalm 24 confronts the world with its arrival, implying readiness and commanding entry—a warning to the arrogance that would dare to ask, "Who is this King of glory?" In the completing era, "the kingdoms of this world [will] become the kingdoms of our Lord" (Revelation 11:15), and the knowledge of the Lord's glory will fill the earth, and every knee will bow!
The Holy Call to Alignment
The Holy Spirit is therefore calling for alignment among God's people. He is preparing the builders who understand structure and order—those who recognize that sustained glory requires architecture. This is not about revival, increased activity, or larger gatherings. It is about aligning with one another, with God's will, and with the blueprint architecture He wants prepared to receive Him. The question is, has the work been done so that the gates may be opened to Him?
Psalm 68 declares that the procession has come into view. Paul declares that we are being assembled for it, and Psalm 24 declares that the King of glory is at the gates. Those whose hearts are aligned with Christ will discern this moment and will not strive to manufacture glory. They will align themselves with the movement already underway and make ready the gates of their hearts and houses of worship, so the King of glory may enter and remain.
Revelation released and given for a notable time is essential. What is unfolding is the unveiling of a procession that began with Christ's ascension and is now approaching its destination: the seat of His throne on earth—all things culminating in the transcendent glory of cosmic convergence in Jerusalem. The processional march is ultimately a war campaign of which the demonic realm has taken note—one that will culminate in the completion of Christ's triumphal procession up to His throne!
"Your procession, God, has come into view, the procession of my God and King into the sanctuary." (Psalm 68:24 NIV)
