Matthew 17:5 - "While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud said, 'This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased; listen to Him!'"
We might hope for a cloudless day when Jesus is transfigured before us during those wonderful moments of clarity. We may desire the vision He gives to be as bright and clear as the sky above. However, the Lord comes in no other way except in clouds. If we are experiencing a mountaintop epiphany with the Lord, we can be sure there will be clouds to hide His complete counsel from us. Otherwise, if we could see clearly without anything impeding our spiritual view, we would become proud and haughty. As a result, we might very well abort God’s vision in our lives.
The clouds are a blessing, for out of them the Lord speaks His wisdom and His direction so we can walk out His will in the valley below. Is the Lord giving you a time of transfiguration? Enjoy the mountaintop and the clouds that go with it! Are you still in the valley, desiring that moment of revelation that only He can give? Be patient, for the Lord allows all of His beloved time to spend with our heads in the clouds. May we not seek the mountaintop, but embrace it when it comes along with the blessings of spiritual clouds.
