The golden lampstand
The golden lampstand speaks of Jesus "the Light
of the world." It speaks of illumination; enlightenment. The Light of God
renews our intellect and our mind.
"…be
renewed in the spirit of your mind" (Ephesians 4:23KJV).
The mind can only be renewed when we surrender to
the Power of the Holy Spirit.
The lampstand is illuminated by the olive oil, even
as our mind must be illuminated by the Power of the Holy Ghost. He cleans the
wick; He does the work of cleaning your mind.
The minute the Word comes alive to you, something happens
in your mind. Your mind comes under divine control, and doesn't run wild on you
anymore. Every thought becomes subject to Christ. Divine control and rule takes
over your mental life; your intellect. The ‘letter’ becomes Spirit.
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth
itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought
to the obedience of Christ.
2 Cor. 10:5 KJV
It is the Spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing:
the Words that I speak unto you, they are Spirit, and they are Life.
John 6:63 KJV
Everything becomes crystal clear, and simple. Every
Word becomes Power.
