「上升！讓我們上去！」
通道入口(Access)：能得以接近、進入、離去、溝通聯絡、或是使用的能力或權利。
我們有入口(access)得以進到至聖所，今天就讓我們來打開這入口(access)的門，並上升到祂的寶座前，是前所未有的！這裡有一首詩歌很適合今天的訊息，國度降臨(可按此連結)。

上升(ascend)就是興起、攀登、走上去、起來、成長、增加、跳躍、點燃(照亮)、提升、恢復及復原，這些字都是從希伯來文alah而來，但其與回教的神─阿拉(Allah)並非同一個字，而是伊羅欣(Elohim)【全能的造物者】、亞多乃(Adonai)【我的主】、耶和華、耶穌—呼召我們上去的，我覺得很有意思的是，神吩咐祂的百姓要去alah與敬拜。所以我們要勇敢地起來、上去、來到神的寶座前敬拜祂，當我們按照這個順序時，神的重建策略就會顯明給我們。
阿摩司書第九章是一篇重要的經文，這章經文是關於大衛帳幕的重建，「主─萬軍之耶和華摸地，地就消化，凡住在地上的都必悲哀。地必全然像尼羅河漲起，如同埃及河落下。那在天上建造樓閣、在地上安定穹蒼、命海水澆在地上的─耶和華是他的名。」(阿摩司書9:5-6)
我們常會忽略這段經文，但這段經文對我們能明白這個真理是非常重要的。當我們敬拜神時，我們就往上升高，而這些「階層」(layers)就像是直通到天堂的台階、樓梯或是樓閣，是主耶穌所鋪路的，這是一條引導人來到神寶座前的路徑。這些階層就像是有鑰匙的金庫，當我們在敬拜中升高、親近祂時，耶穌便賜給我們鑰匙來打開每一個金庫，想像每一個金庫裝滿寶藏的樣子，然後我們終於找到進入神寶座前的路。這些「在天上的階層」(layers in the sky)也與神在「地上的階層」(strata in the earth)相連結，所以當我們在敬拜中升高、進入神的寶座前時，地上的階層就會開始打開，而這個我們稱之為家的星球，就會改變並領受神的榮耀。
Day 18 of 100 Days: “Ascend! Let’s Go Up!” Read Amos 9

Access: The ability or right to approach, enter, exit, communicate with, or make use of.
We have access to the most holy place. Let us open the door of access today and “ascend” to His throne like never before! Here is a link to one of our songs that go with today’s focus. Kingdom Come
Chuck D. Pierce
To ascend is to arise, climb, come up, get up, grow, increase, leap, light up, be raised, recover and restore. This comes from the Hebrew word alah. That is not the same word as the name of the Muslim god, Allah; rather, it is what Elohim, Adonai, Jehovah, Jesus—the one true God—calls upon us to do. I find it interesting that God instructs His people to alah and worship. We are to boldly rise up, ascend, come into the Throne Room and worship Him. When we follow this sequence, God’s strategy of restoration is revealed to us.
One key biblical passage is Amos 9. This chapter is about the restoration of David’s Tabernacle. The Lord GOD of hosts, He who touches the earth and it melts, and all who dwell there mourn; all of it shall swell like the River, and subside like the River of Egypt. He who builds His layers in the sky, and has founded His strata in the earth; who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the face of the earth—the LORD is His name (vv. 5-6).
We often overlook these verses, yet they are vital for us to under- stand. As we worship, we go up. The “layers” are like steps and stairs or upper chambers through the heavenlies that the Lord Jesus Christ has paved. It is a path that leads to the Throne Room. These layers are like vaults that have keys. Jesus gives us the keys to unlock each vault as we ascend and draw near to Him in worship. Imagine each vault filled with treasure. Then we finally gain access to the Throne Room. These “layers in the sky” are also connected with the Lord’s “strata in the earth.” So as we ascend in worship and come into the Throne Room, earth’s strata begin to unlock. This planet we call home changes and receives the glory of God.
