The 7 Fold Spirit

And there between the throne and the four living creatures (beings) and among the elders [of the heavenly Sanhedrin] I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, with seven horns and with seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God [the sevenfold Holy Spirit] Who have been sent [on duty far and wide] into all the earth. Revelation 5:6

Jesus keeps showing John the Seven Fold Spirit of our Father in the Book Revelation. Jesus does this to constantly remind us of what the Holy Spirit is actually doing for us, Isaiah 11:2, even during the end times. We see that the Holy Spirit is causing us to be wise and to understand all of the Truth. He is causing us to be mighty, He is counseling us, and He is causing us to have knowledge and to have reverence for our Father. Jesus shows us in Revelation 5 that the Holy Spirit is in all of the earth during the Great Tribulation. The Truth is that the Holy Spirit is in all of the earth as the seven seals of the end times are being opened. This is very important to see because many people believe that the Holy Spirit is removed from the earth during the end times. They believe that the Holy Spirit is removed from this world and then because He is removed, the anti-christ is allowed to come into power. They teach this from a verse in 2 Thessalonians. 

For the mystery of lawlessness (that hidden principle of rebellion against constituted authority) is already at work in the world, [but it is] restrained only until he who restrains is taken out of the way. 2 Thessalonians 2:7

Our Father only has Paul write in 2 Thessalonians that the Holy Ghost is restraining the anti-christ and that there will come a time when He is removed from doing so. Our Father in omnipotent and so is His Spirit. He is everywhere all of the time. He cannot remove Himself from the earth, because there is nowhere that He isn’t. The Holy Spirit can allow things to happen though and He can stop things from happening, that is what our Father had Paul write about the anti-christ’s ability to come to power. Our Father only had Paul write that the Holy Spirit would stop preventing the anti-christ, not that He would remove the Holy Spirit from the earth. 

Jesus tells us that there is not a time when our Father’s perfect Spirit, the Seven Fold Spirit, is not causing us to be: wise, understanding, counseled, mighty, knowledgeable, reverent, and obedient. These seven attributes are repeatedly used by Jesus to identify Who and What the Holy Spirit is and who and what He is causing us to be. These are the definitions and powers of Who has exactly been given to us to strengthen us, John 14:16. The Holy Spirit’s purpose is to cause us to be wise and understand our Father completely. He counsels us in the will of our Father. He causes us to be strong and know that it is our Father within us. He causes us to truly love our Father and He causes us to be obedient to our Father. Our true strength to worship comes to us directly from the Holy Spirit; it is not from us, it is not our own free will and human abilities deciding that this is our part to play. It is always our Father within us causing us to accomplish His will and purposes.
