“And I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures and in the midst of the elders a Lamb standing as having just been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.” Revelation of John 5:6 RecVer
Every coworker fellowship of the Lord’s move in India that I have attended had always been a time of spiritual examination. The seven Spirits of God with it's seven eyes searched deep within me, enlightening me to see my inward situation as far as my participation in the propagation work was concerned. I could see myself where I had been, all my short comings, especially. The light of the Lord just shone on me through the brothers' fellowship. Though such meeting was not for the ministry of the word for the supply of life, yet I received much light and life supply. Though much of the fellowship was not directly related to me nor my service nor for my locality, yet every point of fellowship seemed as though everything was directed to me. The shining of the Lord’s light was so strong through the work fellowship that I could only silently repent before the Lord for my failures and short comings. Through the brothers' fellowship I had been taught, time and again. Only that I may learn and be perfected through this fellowship.
When the brothers presented the situation of the churches in their states and regions with statistics, I could see the real situation of the locality I have been in. Though my locality was not presented, in my mind I could see the real situation of the local church. I stood condemned for not being able to work out anything fruitful as far as the increase in number was concerned. I lamented the weak spiritual situation of myself, my family, and also of the saints. Inwardly, I can't help but groan for our situation. I could only pray for the Lord’s forgiveness for all my sins and failures, sought for the Lord’s grace and mercy, and trusted the Lord for His blessing.
The seven eyes of the Spirit had been reading me and letting me known my real situation. I believe, through this reading, the Spirit also has been infusing Himself to intensify me for His move for the increase of Chirst in the church. O what a blessed time of reviewing my spiritual condition before the Lord! It was indeed a tine if regular "medical check-up" at God’s examination table. Yes, it was indeed of time for a new beginning again. O Lord Jesus!
Thank the Lord that He loves me. Therefore, the seven Spirit of the Lord has been reading me; shining, exposing, searching, and infusing.
Lord, continue Your shining and searching. Sanctify me Lord! Read me and lead me. Amen.
