Personal Introduction and Revelation of JESUS Christ to the Seven Churchs.* 1. Jesus Christ Introduced to the church in Ephesus

-
Gloria in Excelesis Deo_
Salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb! Amen. Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honour and power and migbt be to our God for ever and ever! Amen ( _lifted from the BCP Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion)

 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith *he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;* Bible KJV - Revelation - Chapter 2:1

 It is important to understand the meaning of the seven stars and the seven golden candlesticks.


The mystery of the seven stars, which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. And the seven candlesticks are the seven churches." Catholic Bible - The Apocalypse of St. John - Chapter 1:20

 This revelation shows the Kingship and Priesthood of Jesus Christ.
The seven stars at His hand shows his Kingship over all the Heavens and the earth while the seven candlesticks shows his Priesthood to the churches upon earth.

David and St. Paul witnessed this revelation thus:
Jehovah saith unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, Until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Jehovah hath sworn, and will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek. Bible ASV - Psalms - Chapter 110:1,4

 In the same way Christ did not take for himself the glory of being made a high priest, but was given it by him who said, You are my Son, this day I have given you being:
As he says in another place, You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. Bible BBE - Hebrews - Chapter 5:5,6

 After Christ was ascended into Heaven, a physical coronation was made to Him. David saw when God told Him to sit at His right hand. He equally heard when God made an oath to make Him a Priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.


Christ is our High Priest who ever liveth and makes intercessions for the church, remember the church is not just a building but people who have an understanding in the universal Faith in Christ Jesus. It is by the virtue of this priesthood that we can come boldly to the throne on grace and obtain mercies.

Secondly, St. Paul witnessed the Kingship dimension thus:

Philippians 2:9 Because of that obedience, God lifted him high and honored him far beyond anyone or anything, ever,
Philippians 2:10 so that all created beings in heaven and on earth - even those long ago dead and buried - will bow in worship before this Jesus Christ,
Philippians 2:11 and call out in praise that he is the Master of all, to the glorious honor of God the Father.

 It is on this account that He is called the ruler of God's creation both in Heaven and on earth. It is equally on this account that we pray and submit our prayer in the name of Jesus.

Spiritual fact and life time lesson:


The Angels and Human beings are two different types of beings created by God.

Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire: Bible KJV - Psalms - Chapter 104:4

In the hierarchy of beings, Angeles are higher than Human beings. See...

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
For thou hast made him a *little lower than the angels,* and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Bible KJV - Psalms - Chapter 8:4,5

 So it is wrong for you to give angels charge or command. Some people will be like 'I will send my angels, I will command my angels...'

It is not scriptural to do so, infact by so doing you are violating a Spiritual law and trespassing. It's a matter of time for the repercussions to be visible.


Please it is only God who has the exclusive right to send or command Angels. Because their are His messengers and not yours.

Secondly, for those praying and worshipping angels, it's a matter of time, remember Jesus is the only High Priest who lives and makes intercessions for the Church.  
 
And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God. Bible KJV - Revelation - Chapter 22:8,9

Prayers

Heavenly Father, our great High Priest, ruler of the Heavens and the earth. Salvation and power belongs to you. It is by your Spirit and your living word that all creation lives and have their being. Grant us the grace to live in understand of who you are to our greatest benefit through Jesus Christ our Lord! Amen.

THE LOVE OF GOD

  The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. (2 Corinthians 13:14|KJV- The Love of God is God's compassion for mankind, He loved the world and all that is in it and sent His son Jesus Christ to salvage it from destruction.  How can we measure the love of God? But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. (Romans 5:8-11|KJV- The love of God is not something we can measure or say, He loved us ahead of time, before we became sinners and while we were yet sinners He loves us and died for our sake. His love demonstrated on t

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. (Galatians 5:19-23|KJV Today we want to make clear the labour, now for the fact that you were asked to go out for evangelism or clean the church does not per se mean that you are a labourer, that you go out every morning for morning cry or always preaching in the bus does not make you a labourer in this context. That you own a ministry and run marathon activities does not mean you are laboring. Now what does it really mean to labour in the Kingdom

 What is sin? Sin is an immoral act considered to be transgression against divine law.(1 John 3:4) Sin according to the scripture is act or omission against God by despising his person and Christian biblical law and by extention to others. Hence rebellion against God and neighbors(Deuteronomy 9:7, Joshua 1:18) SATAN SINNED Who is Satan? Satan was once an archangel who once sat before the throne of God. He lost his position before God the very moment inequity was found in him (Ezik. 28:15). He was the author and architect of sin and rebellion against God; he led other Angel's to rebel against God (Rev. 12:7-9) and deceived man to sin against God (Gen. 3:1-5) Luke 10:18 describes Satan as "LIGHTNING FALL FROM HEAVEN". Jesus in Luke 10:18 further noted the defeat of satan and how he has been casted down to earth from his previous position cf (Rev.12:9), this is to teach Christian people how powerless the satan has become. Also  John 8:44 referred to Satan as a murderer and a
