Repentance

My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, the seven spirits are burning in front of the throne as seven lamps. These seven spirits are burning in our souls as seven lamps.

Spirits as Lamps

Hebrews 9:14 – Eternal Spirit

2 Corinthians 4: 13 – Spirit of Faith

John 16: 13 – Spirit of Truth

Hebrews 10: 29 – Spirit of Grace

2 Timothy 1:7 – Spirit of Power, Love and a Sound mind

1 Peter 3: 4 – Gentle and Quiet Spirit

1 Peter 4: 14 – Spirit of Glory

Regarding this only it is written in Matthew 3: 11 - I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. (In this the seven spirits are as fire)

Hebrews 9:14 - how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Eternal Spirit which is the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ cleanses the dead works from our mind and makes us clean. (It helps God’s ministry to take place)

2 Corinthians 4: 13, 14 - And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak,

knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus and will present us with you.

Only if we have spirit of faith in us, He who raised up Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus and thus our faith grows. Therefore, we should have spirit of faith in us.

 

John 16: 13 - However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.

Only if the Spirit of truth works within us, we can grow in all truth. Only then we will accept the truth.

Hebrews 10: 29 - Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

The Spirit of Grace is the covenant blood of Jesus Christ which makes us holy.

2 Timothy 1: 7 - For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

The Spirit of power, love and sound mind comes from our Lord Jesus Christ who was victorious over death and hell. This spirit removes the fear of death from us. God’s love and sound mind comes within us.

I Peter 3: 4 rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.

More than our worldly decorations, What is precious in the sight of God is the hidden person of our heart with a gentle and quiet spirit.

I Peter 4: 14 - If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.

God glorifies the Spirit of glory.

I Peter 5: 10, 11 - But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

That is what my dear brothers and sisters, in John 17:24 - “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

In this way, our God fills us with his seven spirits which are the seven lamps. Then only we will be made holy. Let us pray.

May the Lord bless you all.
