For generations, the Seven Letters to the churches in Revelation have remained an enigma. This mystery has been interpreted in a limited way, in terms of the historical ages of the church, from Pentecost to the Rapture, with Laodicea being considered the last-day church. That has been the essence of the teaching of the Seven Letters, with little more.
However, the Holy Spirit wants us to understand more from these letters, and that is the reason for My Letter to You.
As I began teaching spiritual warfare to men who had come out of prison and drug rehabilitation, the Holy Spirit led me to the Seven Letters, focusing on the rewards of overcoming. The sense was that in spiritual warfare, we are to grasp in our minds and hearts that the eternal plan of God is for us to mature in spiritual authority to take down the gates of Hell.
For centuries, the church has huddled in its buildings and has not taken on the culture that evil forces have occupied. This is the battle we are called to. Many have not come into this understanding, so I am praying that as you read My Letter to You, revelation will come from the Holy Spirit that you are called to be a holy warrior in the Kingdom of Christ, to answer Christ’s prayer, ‘Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.”
The Seven Letters to the churches provide a blueprint for discipleship, where Christ Himself is leading those who have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying.
This is My Letter to You- an invitation to mature in Christ and to share in His spiritual authority to take down the gates of Hell and to bring the Kingdom of Heaven to earth.
