Revelation 1:20-2:1 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks.And, as we learn in John 10:28, no one can snatch them out of Jesus’ hand.Angel of the Churches in the Bible General scriptures concerning John’s vision shows that each pastor is being held in the Lord’s right hand. A pastor is God’s “messenger” to the church in that he is responsible to faithfully preach God’s Word to them. The seven Spirits of God are for the church to be living. These things says He who ahas the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead. Even if that is the case, a better interpretation of the “messengers” of Revelation 1 is that they are the pastors or bishops of the seven churches, symbolized by the lampstands. In 3:1 the Lord says, These things says He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars. It could be that every local church has a “guardian angel” who oversees and protects that congregation. An “angel” is literally a “messenger.” But that leads us to the question-are these human messengers or heavenly beings? Jesus explains to John that the “stars are the angels of the seven churches” (Revelation 1:20). Revelation 3:1 - And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars I know thy.
The seven Spirits of God are not yet another Spirit but the Spirit of God, the life-giving Spirit, the consummated Spirit, who in the book of Revelation has been intensified sevenfold due to the degradation of the church. Speaking of the book of Revelation, the number 7 is used there more than fifty times in a variety of contexts: there are seven letters to seven churches in Asia and seven spirits before God’s throne (Revelation 1:4), seven golden lampstands (Revelation 1:12), seven stars in Christ’s right hand (Revelation 1:16), seven seals of God’s. The right hand is a sign of strength and control. To the dead and dying church in Sardis the Lord introduces Himself as He who has the seven Spirits of God (to make the church intensely living) and the seven stars (to make the church intensely shining), as per Rev. The fact that the stars are in Jesus’ right hand indicates that they are important and under His authority. And to the angel of the church in Sardis say: These things says he who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: I have knowledge of your works. Jesus then revives John and strengthens him for the task of writing the coming revelation. John falls down at Jesus’ feet “as though dead” (verse 17). The Lord is standing in the midst of seven golden lampstands, and “in his right hand he held seven stars” (verse 16). He turns around and sees a vision of the Lord Jesus in His glory. In Revelation 1, John is “in the Spirit” and hears “a loud voice like a trumpet” behind him (verse 10). Also, the first few chapters of Revelation contain letters from Jesus to seven historical churches in Asia Minor. There are other “sevens,” as well: seven lampstands, seven spirits, and seven churches. In Revelation chapters 1-3, “seven stars” are referenced four times.
