Seven Spirits
God perfectly understands everyone’s problems. This is why He pours out His Spirit upon all those who seek Him.
The Seven Spirits mentioned in the book of Isaiah do not stand for Seven Holy Spirits. They are attributes that describe the Power of the Spirit of God. He lacks nothing and nothing can be added to Him. He is absolutely perfect.
The prophecy: The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. Isaiah 11:2
Each virtue added to the abundance of the Holy Spirit that would rest upon the physical body of Jesus. He had all the necessary attributes to withstand the attacks of hell during His earthly mission.
In Him would be the Lord, His wisdom, His understanding, His counsel, His might, His knowledge and His fear.
This abundance that was inside of Jesus is exactly what the Holy Spirit continues to do with His children. They also have the Spirit of the Lord, the Spirit of wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge and fear.
This means that there is no human problem beyond the reach of the seven virtues of the Holy Spirit. With the Lord, His wisdom, His understanding, His counsel, His might, His knowledge and the fear of the Lord, there is a solution to every problem on the face of the Earth.
That includes yours!
It is true that we haven’t all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting. Ephesians 4:13-14
But this does not mean that the abundance of the Lord Jesus is not yet within us.
With the richest man in the world, his wealth belongs to his under age children, yet they will only take possession of it when they reach the age of an adult.
For this reason, the children of God need to mature in faith.
The abundance of the Spirit is within His children and servants. However, not all of them are able to understand such greatness because of their spiritual childishness. Teaching this to children of the flesh is like casting pearls before swine.
To sum it all up: in the same way that the Abundance of the Holy Spirit lived within Jesus, it also lives within those who are born and sealed of God.
This is why any and all sacrificial offerings given to receive the Spirit of God are worthless in comparison to the Offering given in return by God. It is God’s all for our worthless offering.
Who can understand this glorious mystery?
When this happens, the word of the LORD of Hosts will be fulfilled, which says: Thus says the LORD of hosts: “Peoples shall yet come, inhabitants of many cities; the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, ‘Let us continue to go and pray before the LORD,
and seek the LORD of hosts. I myself will go also.’
Yes, many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem,
and to pray before the LORD
Thus says the LORD of hosts: “In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, ‘Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you'"Zechariah 8:20-23
