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.
