Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation 4:2
4:2 Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and Onesat on the throne.

Now we can see the throne of heaven and the persona of God through the revelation of the Word of God and the anointing of Holy Spirit.

Why does God show His throne and persona towards us? The answers are as follows:

  1. So we can experience the attention and visiting of God [Psalm 11:4].
  2. So we can experience the power of the train of God's robe [Isaiah 6:1].
  3. So we can live in holiness [Psalm 47:9].
  4. So we can experience the power of fiery flame from heaven.

We learn the fourth point, namely 'We can experience the power of fiery flame from heaven.'

Daniel 7:9

7:9 "I watched till thrones were put in place,and the Ancient of Days was seated;His garment waswhite as snow,and the hair of His head waslike pure wool.His throne wasa fiery flame,its wheels a burning fire;

Every activity in heaven is encouraged by the power of the flame of fire. Our activity in ministry on earth must also be encouraged by the power of the flame of fire so what we do on earth is the reflection of the activity in heaven.

From age to age, God prepares His servants through the power of the flame of fire from heaven, thus they can be used by God.

  1. Moses.
    Moses is clever, wealthy, great, and he has position. Before he experiences the flame of fire from heaven, he could not serve two people, but he became a killer (it means serving with envy, hatred, slander, et cetera).

    Exodus 3:2-5
    3:2 And the Angel of the Lordappeared to him in a flame of fire from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, but the bush wasnot consumed.
    3:3
    Then Moses said, "I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush does not burn."
    3:4
    So when the Lordsaw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, "Moses, Moses!" And he said, "Here I am."
    3:5
    Then He said, "Do not draw near this place. Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand isholy ground."

    Moses must experience the work of the flame of fire, and then he can be used by God.

    Jeremiah 23:29
    23:29 "Isnot My word like a fire?" says the Lord,"And like a hammer thatbreaks the rock in pieces?

    Moses experiences the flame of fire of the true teaching Word until he takes off his sandals. It means purification for inner and outer life, so we become a newborn baby. It is the purification of mouth or tongue.

    Exodus 3:10-11
    3:10 Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt."
    3:11
    But Moses said to God, "Who amI that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?"

    The mouth can confess all weakness and sin. If we are forgiven, do not sin anymore. It means recognizing our selves. The mouth can always give thanks to God.

  1. Isaiah.
    Isaiah 6:5-8

    6:5 So I said: "Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts."
    6:6
    Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal whichhe had taken with the tongs from the altar.
    6:7
    And he touched my mouth with it,and said: "Behold, this has touched your lips; your iniquity is taken away, and your sin purged."
    6:8
    Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: "Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?" Then I said, "Here amI! Send me."

    Isaiah has the character of sin that is unclean lips. He experiences the purification of the flame of fire from the altar that is the one of God's love. It is the purification of unclean lips that lie, gossip (the words that weaken the faith), slander, et cetera. Thus, we can say true and good words. Then, God can send us to the people who did not want to be served before.

    Isaiah 6:9-10
    6:9 And He said, "Go, and tell this people: 'Keep on hearing, but do not understand; keep on seeing, but do not perceive.'
    6:10 "Make the heart of this people dull, and their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and return and be healed."


  1. The disciples on the attic in Jerusalem.
    Acts 2:1-4

    2:1 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
    2:2
    And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
    2:3
    Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and onesat upon each of them.
    2:4
    And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

    The disciples experience the purification of the flame of fire of Holy Spirit.
    The example is Peter. He experiences the purification of mouth that denied Jesus three times (it means denying the true teaching Word). After he is purified, he can preach in front of three thousand people.

  2. The church at the last days.
    We must experience the purification of the flame of fire twice as follows:

    1. Experiencing the purification of the flame of fire of God's Word through the perseverance in Bible Study Service and Holy Communion (the Table of Showbread). Experiencing the purification of the flame of fire of Holy Spirit through the perseverance in General Service (the Golden Candlestick). Experiencing the purification of the flame of fire of God's love through the perseverance in Worship Prayer Service (the Golden Altar of Incense).

      Thus, the church of God experiences the purification of the fire of Word, Holy Spirit, and God's love through the perseverance in doing three main services in shepherding fold. It is like the branch that abides in the True Vine so our body, soul, and spirit are purified. It is the purification of mouth until we do not stumble in words.

      James 3:2
      3:2 For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he isa perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.


    2. Experiencing the purification of the fiery trial or the suffering in the flesh together with Jesus.
      1 Peter 4:12-14
      4:12 Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you;
      4:13
      but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.
      4:14
      If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you,for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.

      So we can have the Glory Spirit or Shekinah Glory.

      The functions of the Glory Spirit are as follows:

      1. We are employed by God to spread the light of gospel about the glory of Christ to bring the saved people to be purified until perfect like Jesus. So they become the Bride of Heaven.

      2. It renews and changes us from carnal man to spiritual one like Jesus. It starts from being strong and of good courage. We are not disappointed or desperate and do not leave God when we face everything. But we can feel joy and give thanks to God. We are faithful and fervent in ministry. We always trust, hope, and worship God.

      The physical miracle also happens. When Jesus comes a second time, we are changed to become as glorious as He is. We are lifted up on the glorious clouds until we sit together with Him on the throne of heaven.

God blesses us.
