Had the honor to paint this while our BSSM (Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry) 2 class was leading worship. Powerful time. I never painted so in sync with the Spirit before, in such beautiful union, and felt Him say during one of the most powerful songs, "Let Heaven Come"!
I wanted to paint intimacy but he had me paint heaven breaking through to the earth. I felt Him say, "Let heaven come." Heaven isn't some neat box. Imagine the clash of two kingdoms. But ultimately beauty arises from the ashes and freedom reigns.

There's no reason why you shouldn't make a living out of your passion. Do something about it!
Whatever You Wish
Oh, how I long for Your heart to be my heart
Forever beating
Reverberating on the vibrations of waves.
A splash
A twirl
A beat.
The radiant heat of
A motion of mercy
Distilled into a touch
My warm embrace.
Peace that envelops
A leap into the depths.
And unafraid
I'll run after You
Because unashamed You've taken me in.
You're my Designer and I'm your designer
Oh, that whatever You'd wish for I'd keep
And whatever I'd wish for You'd keep.
So in my sleep
I'll dream again.

River Wild
Signs and wonders from above
When You pour out Your Spirit
On the old and young
In the power of Your presence
Holy Spirit rain
Falling like a flood
Break upon my praise
As I sing of Your love
Holy Spirit fire
Burn within my soul
As I call on Your Name
As I call on Your Name
Jesus
Dreams and visions of the Son
As we stand in Your presence
Revelations of Your love
As we look to the heavens
Oh Holy Spirit
Burn like a fire
All consuming, consume me
Here in Your presence
Lord I surrender to Your glory
For Your glory
Living water
River wild in me
Immerse me in Your mercy
Open heaven
Crashing over me
Restore me in Your glory

How many more must die? Where is the shalom?
A tribute to all my brothers and sisters in this season of mourning.
Hopeful Hands
Were you protecting me
When you shot my black heart?
Did you know it bleeds red, too?
I know all lives matter,
But did you know black lives matter, too?
I didn't choose my fate
But you judge me by the shade of my skin
You decided my fate,
But you forgot me.
You forgot me.
You forgot my brothers who died before me.
All 6 pints of blood
Crying out to you
A choir of harmonizing minors.
Can you hear?
Do you hear our cries?
Don't you know I'm just a child?
Did I have to die for this?
How many more have to die?
Because you can't face that I carry the glory of God, too
Just like you do.
How many more have to die?
How many?
Jesus you are the hope of nations
We cry out to you, "Abba, Father!"
Holy Spirit, WAKE UP YOUR CHURCH.
Shalom.
ARISE, CHURCH.
LAMENT, CHURCH.
Shalom.
Prince of Peace,
Come!
Hands will either oppress or bless.
Hands will either shame or glorify.
Hands will either destroy or create.
Hope rests in Your Hands.
Hope guide my hands.
Your Hands be My Hands.

You Break Through the dark
Nosediving straight into the deepest darkness
Leaving behind a trail of hope
The Light comes and evil flees
It can't stand in the presence of pure light
We wait upon You
Lead us, send us where You will
Keep us here
As we wait. We expect You.
Break through.
Breakthrough.
It's always darkest before the dawn.
The Light always shines brightest in the most desolate places. Break every chain.
Break every lie.
Break every sickness and curse.
Break every prison door.
Set every captive free.
Heal every heart.
Fulfill Your promises You've made,
Oh God Let Your sign be a rainbow.

All-consuming Fire
No one can understand
The mystery of Your Love.
No mind can conceive
The power of Your Presence.
Your Love, it burns for me.
It flows like lava
From Heaven into the seas.
Your Spirit writes paths as it seeps into the earth
Leaving behind a trail of fertile ground.
Your Love is not the superficial kind.
Set me ablaze
With the ever-burning embers of Your Love.
Your Burning Love
Ignites a passion in my soul
A desire for Your Passion.
Your Passion is Your people.
Your Love is Your children.
Your Desire?
To see all your children
Every tribe, nation and tongue
Under the banner of your burning love.
You don’t give us a piece of Your Heart
You give it All.

Arise (Touch the Sky)
Arise!
Shine!
Your light invades the darkest places
Of my soul and my world,
Transforming ashes into beauty
Burning away every dead thing.
What once was dull
You've awakened to life!
You brought colors from the Throne room
Into a formless world.
The glory of the Lord rises upon you.
Darkness covers the earth
But nations will come to your light.
There's no time to hide.
Be brave.
Step into the light.
Spread your wings and fly
Lift up your eyes!
Then you will be radiant
And your heart swell with joy.
Unlike Icarus
The Son won't melt your wings
But take you higher.
I touch the sky
When my knees hit the ground.

I died and cried for you
Yet you betrayed Me

For you know not
The gravity of all I've done
Because I love you.

Stay Faithful and Believe.

You are redeeming
You are dreaming up visions for us.
Even when we don’t see
Help us remain faithful.

You won’t let us stay marred and scarred.

God was showing me His Eye. It's an Eye like fire (Revelation 1:14) that not only watches us and cares for us even more than the sparrows (Luke 12:6-7), but he protects us as the pupil of His Eye (Psalm 17:8). Yes, you, little one, you are the apple of His Eye, the pupil. Essential to vision, extremely precious. As you walk in life, remember you are His Most Precious One. Look into the eye of the person in front of you and remind them as you look into their soul that they are deeply loved just as you are.

There's only One that can save you from the chaos that surrounds
The Majesty from Heaven who came down
Became a man
The King now a servant
Blood shed for you
So you could be free from the noise
Find peace and joy to fill the void.
This is my Jesus
This is Holy Spirit
He washes over every pain
He lights up every path of darkness and brings us into marvelous light
He is my everything
Without Him I am nothing.
All the glory goes to Him
All my glory is for His Glory
Every flame fanned for God's Name.
All I've done for me has gone nowhere but now in You--
Glorified.
Your Cross wipes away every mess.

In Over My Head
(Listening to "In Over My Head" by Bethel Music@jennjohnson20)
He is gone.
He is in a better place
In Your Presence completely.
But I am weak.
I need You more.
Please come.
Come to me.
I am afraid of letting go.
Pull me away from the shore
Into the depths of Your glory.
Teach me who You are again.
Teach me who I am again.
Take me back to the place of hunger
So that You're the only one I need.
Be my only desire
Crash over me like an ocean
Let me drown again in Your Love.
You are other worldly
Like the mysteries of solar systems
Let me sink in
I'm in over my head.
You make me brave. © Katherine Cheng Art

Intersection

(listening to "Of Dirt and Grace" by Hillsong United)
Here I find You again
In the place between joy and pain
Celebration and fear
Distance and nearness.
I don't understand
How I'm supposed to just let go.
In the intersection
Of dirt and grace
The scars of old and cuts still new
I'm supposed to trust You have something better for me?
Dreams deferred and new ones will die
You've always painted a more beautiful story of redemption.
Let me trust the Hands that made me
Let me know You are making something worth more than gold
Even if all I can taste are the tears
If all I can feel now is the depth of pain
If all I can see is war and death and rain
God I know that You are here.
Would You still my heart again?

"Come and gaze on My countenance until your eyes focus to see clearly. I give you My EYES through which to see, for when you see ashes, I see beauty, when you see limitations I see miracles, and when you look upon heartache and pain, I see the future breakthrough. Look with My eyes and everything changes." TPT devotional, "Let Me See"
I've been mostly doing pouring with minimal brushstrokes so it was nice to get a few brushes in my hand again! Today was my first day of class at BSSM and I saw a beautiful eye in my mind.
Let Me See
I see a fire greater than I’ve ever seen before.
Where flames are fanned by a giant dove-like hummingbird.
Just one look in Your eyes
And I’m changed forever.
One look.
One glimpse of Your Glory.
Let me see as You see.
Let me think as You think.
Let me know as You know:
That the unseen is reality
The impossible is the norm
The Light is victorious when all looks dark
Give me Your Eyes to see the hidden gold
The deepest treasures You have kept hidden
Let me find You when I seek You
Reflect Your eyes through me
That all might see the tenderness of Your gaze
The pride in Your eyes You have for Your children
The Imago Dei they carry.

Promises
Even when all I think I can see is emptiness, You paint Your rainbows over me. Reminding me:
“My Daughter, Katherine, Whom I love.
My promises are always sure. I will never change. I have never changed.
You are mine. I am yours. Your destiny is sealed. The Victory I have won is sealed. No one can take it away. No one. Not even angels nor demons. Not even schemes of man.
Therefore, live a life worthy of the calling you’ve received. Love all people with the Greatest Love, My Love. Show them all I have in store for them! Not just salvation from sin and death. But new life. New Spirit. New Life! ALL MY LOVE. My gifts are raining down from the heavens.” Will you open your eyes, your hearts and your souls to receive? Or do you think you are “fine”? Do you think, "I’m good. I don’t need more gifts. I don’t need more freedom. I don’t need more God.”
Well, I know I need more.
God I need more of You. God I need to see You more clearly. God I need more intimacy with You. God You give me so much but it’s not enough! I need more! God. I want more of You. I want to reflect Your Love, Your Power, Your Glory, Your Mercy in my words, my steps, and my every move.
Your promises are sure. So I stand secure."

Soar
I was sinking in the miry clay
Ankle-deep in my own self-pity
Somehow I gave it power over me
I let it hold me down
I kept going back to the same addictions
The same poisons
Telling myself I needed it -- I needed to feed
My hunger.
But these nights made me feel sick and hungrier.
These addictions enslaved me more.
Then, You.
You, My Wind, My Chain-Breaker. My Love.
You melted the shackles off my feet!
You tore the straight-jacket I wrapped myself in.
You threw me into the air
To Soar!
Higher and higher and higher.
You showed me higher heights.
You showed me the glory clouds -- You set me free!
The higher I went, the more I realized:
All I’ve seen pales in comparison
To the richness of Your Love
You promise to show me higher heights than these.
This is just the beginning.

I will show you the depths of my love.
Let Me mine out the precious gems within you
You are my jewel.
Let Me pull out the gold and the diamond.

With You
I am with you, always.
I will never leave you nor forsake you.
Like a dove, I am perched on you
My wings envelop you
Rest in Me.
I will keep you safe.
My Glory and Love radiate through you
Not for your sake
But to draw My children back to Me
To be My voice of peace and truth
To be My lamp ever radiating My Light.
Let me lead the way
I will carry you to higher heights
I will show you greater things than this
More glory
More light
More joy
More hope
Than you have ever seen.
Saturated
Even out of the mouth of babes
Praise will rise up like incense to Your Throne
We’re too smart, too rational, too proper
Too independent, too capable
We care too much what people think
But the little ones?
They run straight to You
Their pure hearts and pure eyes see
The Wonder
You have in store
The abundance of life and joy
You want to pour into us – Your Children!
Call us back
Into Your Living Waters
The Infinite Flowing fountain that wont run dry
Shower us with the Truth of Your Love
Teach us how to point others to You.

Abide
(Inspired by 1 John 2:17)
The world and its empty promises
are passing away
But the one who does the will of God
Lives forever.
Who defines me?
My experiences? My parents? My desires?
My accomplishments? My investments?
My joys and my sorrows?
Many things are a mystery to me.
But there is one thing I know.
Life is but a mist
The good I do is but a drop in the bucket
The words I speak
The lives I impact
All are a ripple.
But when I speak what He speaks,
Eternity is written on someone’s heart.
When I do what He calls me to do,
The lone string of the violin
Sings the melody of a symphony of harmonies.
When I live for myself,
My sand castle is quickly washed away.
When I live for God and His Purposes,
I am a strong oak tree, planted by streams of water.
He is a refuge for the poor
A pure light for the darkest soul.
