“John to the seven churches which are in Asia; Grace be unto you, and peace, from which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne.” Comment: So who are these 7 Spirits? First we have to look at the Greek root word for our English word Spirits! This is not booze! The Strongs number is 4151. This word denotes wind or the breath of God! Remember at Pentecost the Holy Spirit came as a mighty strong rushing wind upon the disciples? Your breath is the invisible part of you but without it there is no life in you! God breathed into us his breath at Creation! Though invisible it the most powerful part of us! In the tongue is the power of life and death! Jesus spoke words of life! Hitler, Marx, Lenin, Darwin, Stalin all spoke words of death! Why? Because they spoke words that opposed God and his Christ! We all use the breath God has given us to make words! The biggest mistake people make is to think their breath is their own! Then abuse will come! Hate speech! With our breath we can praise or curse God! If we speak God’s words we honor him and bring life to others! If we speak words against God we separated ourselves from him! Satan used God’s breath to deceive Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden! He told them God was a liar! People do this same thing today! Satan got kicked out of Heaven by taking God;s very breath and using it against him! The same goes on today! Even thought the 7 churches of Asia were not perfect as we are not perfect yet their words of Praise for their God brought them before the Throne Room of God! Your words will either move you closer to God or further from him! The most distant place from God is Hell! If you gave someone your breath and they cursed you with your own breath how would you feel? The Christ which was, and is, and is to come is listening to our words! Our words describe us even better than finger prints and DNA! Your eternity is based upon your words! When I hear someone curse God and use his name in vain I cringe inside! Not for God but for them!
