Anything that we acquire through our ears, our mind, or our emotion alone is not spiritual reality. Only the things that the Holy Spirit guides us into are spiritual reality.4

We do not worship God merely in the physical realm; we are to touch and tap into the spiritual reality. It is the spiritual reality of Jesus that brings life, not just the physical knowledge. Everything in the Kingdom of God is about entering into spiritual reality. It is the Spirit that brings life, and we are min_ isters of the Spirit.

We do not worship God merely in the physical realm;

"...God, who also made us sufficient as ministers ofthe new covenant, not of the letter but ofthe Spirit;for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life" (2 Corinthians 35-6 NKJV).

The Book of Revelation shows us that John practiced this new worship in his personal life: "I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day..." (Rev. 1:10). At this point, he was exiled on the island of Patmos without a church or fellowship to support him, but he still entered into the Spirit in worship. We can see from his example that we can enter into the spirit realm and worship anytime and anyplace

THE TENT OF DAVID

One of the most incredible corporate worship events in the Old Testament occurred under the leadership of three seers—Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun. These were the same three seers who led the constant worship in David's Tabernacle for 40 years. They also each wrote psalms, which are contained in our modern Bibles (for more information, review Chapter 5, "Prophets and Seers"). At the dedication of the Temple of Solomon, as the people praised the Lord in unison, the glory Of God came down as a cloud:

"...the house ofthe Lord, wasfilled with a cloud, so that the priests could not stand to minister because ofthe cloud;for theglory ofthe Lordfilled the house ofGod" (2 Chronicles 5: 13b-14 NKJV).
The focus of our attention is on the three seers who were leading when this occurred. God so enjoyed the worship that these three men created in the

Tabernacle and in the dedication service that He released His manifested presence. The Lord so loved the worship in the Tabernacle of David that it is the only Old Testament model for worship that is carried over into the New Testament.
All the animal sacrifice and all ofthe Old Testament altars are left behind in the New Testament in favor of what the Book of Hebrews calls a better covenant (see Heb. 8:6-13). The only exception is an obscure prophecy in Amos that says that God will raise up David's tent again:
"In that day I will restore David'sfallen tent. I will repair its broken places, restore its ruins, and build it as it used to be" (Amos 9:11).
Hundreds ofyears later, the day finally came where the New Testament declares that God has reestablished David's tent. Peter stood before the Gentiles in Cornelius's house and, in essence, told them that God had set up a place ofworship that is accessible by all people, at all times.
The words of the prophets are in agreement with this, as it is written:
"After this I will return and rebuild David'sfallen tent. Its ruins I will rebuild, and I will restore it, that the remnant ofmen may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who bear My name, says the Lord, who does these things that have been knownfor ages" (Acts 15: 15-18).
One part of this restoration, which is commonly overlooked, is the restoration Of seers in the worship realm. God desires to restore the constant interactive

worship of David's tent. Seers need to be restored to the Body of Christ for Davidic worship to be fully restored. Prepare to hear more about worship leaders writing songs from Heaven, seeing angels during worship, and being directed by the presence of the Lord. This restoration is on the move.
