MASTER POTTER and
the MOUNTAIN of FIRE
Chapter 60 - The Heavenly Library
by Jill Austin

Now the chariot slows and enters a vast room with thousands and thousands of shelves containing the books of Heaven. Seated on high stools, angelic scribes record on parchment. As Beloved watches the image before her, she's stunned by the revelation that the words are alive and have eternal power.

Glistening words of the Godhead hang in midair for a moment, and they shimmer with anointing. Streams of pure liquid revelation mysteriously flow into long quills and out through heavenly ink.

Dazzling, vibrant words hang in space like huge banners suspended over time and eternity declaring, “Salvation belongs to Him who sits on the throne. You are worthy, Oh Lord, to receive glory, honor, and power. You were slain and have redeemed mankind by your blood.”

Beloved’s eyes focus on two magnificent angels possessing great purity and authority. Working at special pedestals, their hands move quickly across the pages of their enormous books.

The Book of Deeds
Guardian of the Glory tells her, “The angel on the right is the keeper of a vast wing of the library called the Books of Deeds. Those books contain a full record of the deeds of everyone born on the earth from the beginning of time. Nothing has escaped the all-seeing eye of God. These records will be used to prove that the works of all men have fallen short of the glory of God at the last day’s judgment.”

“What's that angel on the left doing? He has only one book.”

The Book of Life
“He is the keeper of another book called the Book of Life. It’s the most important book in the entire heavenly library. It's just a register of names, but if someone's name is not written there, that individual’s record of works in the Books of Deeds will be used to judge him or her.”

Guardian pauses, smiles at her, and says, “Your name is written in the Book of Life, Beloved. The day you called out to Him in the Potter’s Field you were born from above. When you voluntarily gave your heart to Master Potter, we all rejoiced, especially your Grandma Pearl, as your name was written in eternal ink on those pages. You have nothing to fear from the record of your works in the Books of Deeds. They will never condemn you.”

Archives of the Past
The chariot moves forward and, turning suddenly, takes her to a section marked Archives of the Past. She sees rows of old, well-used leather books and wonders who reads these books, which are both tall and small—all sizes! Some are engraved with gold leaf letters and intricate designs.

Guardian answers her puzzled look and unspoken question, “These books have the power to bring life and death. Some release powerful truths that have started and stopped wars. Other books contain words that break false religious doctrines and unlock political systems, releasing freedom to enslaved people groups and nations.”

Books affecting all aspects of life, with the power of the Cross and the truth of the gospel, are bound in heavenly script. She can feel the glory emanating from them. These books have portals into eternity on their pages with living revelation and impartation.

As they fly down the aisles, she sees angels escorting vessels into the Archive Room. Theologians, historians, and teachers are brought to the heavenly library to experience visitations and research the ancient pathways traveled by the mystics and the saints of old.

Guardian explains, “Some are not even aware they’re having a visitation, but their spirits are being ignited with fiery inspiration. With their gifts of writing, they will impart truth from the past and weave these golden strands for present and future generations.”

Books of Remembrance
Gesturing to another section, he tells her, “These are the Books of Remembrance. They contain multiplied stories of redeeming love told through all the generations of human history. It is the same story retold countless times, but each has its own unique details.

“These books record the glorious histories of every believer, many of whom were hidden while on earth. Most of them were not great by earthly standards, but in the record of Heaven they will be remembered for eternity as true heroes of the faith. Some of these men and women moved with powerful anointing and brought revival fires to the earth. Others stood in simple obedience and faithfulness to the destiny the Son ordained for them. The testimony of their lives unlocks ancient truths, imparting understanding to the next generation.”

Guardian pauses and looks at her as he continues, “Beloved, because you are one of His, a Book of Remembrance is being written that will tell the story of Master Potter’s great love for you. It will record hidden details of your life in God and recount Master Potter’s unrelenting commitment to redeem, sanctify, and prepare you for glory. It will tell of all His painstaking effort to make you whole, blameless, and pure before Him. The secret story of how He captured your heart and your affections, so that all your deepest longings were satisfied only in Him, will be told in these pages. One day your life will bear witness to the marvels and mysteries of redeeming love, just as all the other volumes in the Books of Remembrance.”

Beloved is shaken by Guardian’s revelation of Master Potter’s love. To think that her life would be an eternal remembrance in the library of Heaven leaves her stunned. She longs for the day she will linger for hours among the Books of Remembrance and read the stories celebrating the uninterrupted history of Master Potter’s love for other earthen vessels. But now, Guardian rushes her along.

Binders of Eternity
Traveling back through the passages of time, they return to the present. Angelic scribes are recording volumes dealing with this present age—carefully detailing current issues and events that will impact the future.

Flying over huge tables covered with rolled up scrolls, he tells her, “These angels are called Binders of Eternity. They cut up freshly written parchment and bind them into books and scrolls. They've been given wisdom to discern what belongs in each book and to place the finished books in order on shelves throughout the celestial library. Each of these books in its appointed hour will be used to shape history.”

She’s fascinated as she watches messenger angels gather scrolls, read them through, and, at the foreordained time, take them to earth. She watches the angels traverse the heavenly portals and deliver the scrolls to earthly vessels. She wonders, but is unable to comprehend, how the wisdom of God is making time the servant of eternity.

She can see time-released books filled with anointing to take people to the next levels of the move of God. These books contain fresh warfare strategies to open gates and bring Heaven to earth in a holy invasion of power affecting cities and nations. They release eternal truths to be made manifest throughout the centuries.

God's War Book
An angel with perfect vision sits on a high stool looking onto the earth. He is recording in an enormous book titled, God’s War Book. This book contains the names of battles fought over souls throughout the ages. He records the prayer warriors who enter into the great and terrible wars of the past and the present. He waits patiently, destined to record until the end of time.

Plans for the Future
Traveling into the Plans for the Future section, Beloved sees books glowing with life and divine energy. The chariot slows down, and she is able to read titles and authors’ names.

Drawing near, she notices a golden seal imprinted with a Lion and a Lamb on each book, the impression from Master Potter’s signet ring. Scarlet and purple strands of silken threads are attached to the seals. At the end of the strands are circular medallions stamped with a date and time, indicating when the books are to be released to earth.

Intrigued by their unusual appearance, Beloved wonders what great exploits are declared within the pages. Reaching out, she runs her hand over a few of them and receives momentary flashes of revelation with each brief touch. The pace is dizzying, and Beloved is feeling a little confused by what she saw in her glimpse of the future. She saw words and music coming out of boxes.

There were animated pictures on something that looked like a long ribbon, a huge, metallic, dish-like machine moving through space, transmitting pictures and sounds to earth. What could these possibly be? she wonders. Suddenly she sees a familiar name and turns to Guardian, “Is that my friend, Golden Incense?” “Yes, Beloved, Master Potter gave her powerful keys in intercession to come against the enemy and open up territories for Him. Do you see those four books on the upper shelf? Let’s take a closer look at them.” The chariot rises as he speaks. If Beloved had looked at him, she would have seen him smile at the look of surprise on her face as she sees her own name as the author. She reaches out for them, but they’re quickly whisked away.
