In my prayer time on Monday, July 31, 2023, I heard the Spirit of the Lord release these words from the Father for His beloved people:
There is a cloud of glory that is coming to enshroud My people and protect them from what is coming on the earth. As the waters cover the earth, so shall My glory be (Habbakuk 2:14). It will be a canopy over your homes, your businesses, your finances, and your supply lines (Isaiah 4:5). In days of famine and wilderness, My cloud of glory will bring manna once again (Psalm 78:23-25). There will be no lack among My beloved (Psalm 37:19). For I will sustain you and will protect you in My cloud by day and fire by night (Isaiah 4:5; Exodus 14:19-20). Flames of fire will rest upon homes and gatherings that create an upper room (Acts 1:13-14; 2:1-4). As the world goes one way, My beloved will go another. Never has there been such a stark contrast between who belongs to Me and who doesn’t as is coming in these days. Prepare yourselves and prepare your homes. Consecrate yourselves unto Me, and My presence will rest upon you (Joshua 3:5). Great are the trials that will come upon men, but great is the glory and victory of My people (Zephaniah). For I will lead you with My righteous right hand in ways you have not known (Isaiah 41:10). You will know whether to turn to the right or to turn left (Isaiah 30:21). I will make straight paths for your feet as you come to Me with all your heart (Proverbs 3:6). Turn from the ways of religion to seek My face. I will reveal My face to you as you come and seek Me with all your heart (Jeremiah 29:13).
May the Lord’s word be tested and everything from Him be found true according to the utterance of the Holy Spirit and His power.

Psalm 78:23-25

Exodus 14:19-20
The angel of God, who had been going in front of the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them. The pillar of the cloud moved from in front and stood behind them. So it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. It was a cloud along with darkness [even by day to the Egyptians], but it gave light by night [to the Israelites]; so one [army] did not come near the other all night.
Acts 1:13-14; 2:1-4
When they had entered the city, they went upstairs to the upper room where they were staying [indefinitely]…All these with one mind and one purpose were continually devoting themselves to prayer, [waiting together] along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place, and suddenly a sound came from heaven like a rushing violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. There appeared to them tongues resembling fire, which were being distributed [among them], and they rested on each one of them [as each person received the Holy Spirit]. And they were all filled [that is, diffused throughout their being] with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues (different languages), as the Spirit was giving them the ability to speak out [clearly and appropriately].
