As people of God we enter with Jesus Christ at certain times into periods of time when things intensify and God, according to our assigned responsibility, demands a further step from us.

 

This specific step includes coming closer to Him. This approach results in a greater presence of God, which carries within it a threefold radiance of light (cf. James 4:8a i.c.w. Isaiah 60:1).

 

8a Come near to God and he will come near to you. …

 

1 “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.

 

 

The decision to draw nearer to God result in increasing in the light of truth and the luminous presence of sonship and the fatherhood of God which personally surrounds or covers us.

The revelatory light of the glory of the Father has its seat in the land of the living and testifies of the events to come, even if it is not comprehended by the present religious systems.

The influence of the revelatory light of God is the movement that comes from His throne room.
It is the movement of the Cherubim, which corresponds to lightning, and which proceeds from the spirit realm to affect the minds of those who move forward faithfully with the Lord.

The presence of God contains His living light which, among other things, illuminates the realm where we as saints are able to recognize His truth as revelatory truth (cf. Psalm 36:9).

 

9 For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.

 

In order to walk in this revelatory truth, it is essential to live in the love for God, for oneself and for one's neighbor (cf. Matthew 22:36-39).

 

36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ (cf. Deuteronomy 6:5) 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ (cf. Leviticus 19:18)

 

The walk in the first love corresponds to the high place where the light of the sevenfold Spirit of God (cf. Isaiah 11:2) moves, which is interwoven with the first love, according to the exhortation of Jesus Christ to the church of Ephesus (cf. Revelation 2:4-5).

Revelation 2:4-5:
4 Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first. 5 Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.

Life in the Love of God

It is the love of God (note: Greek ‘agạpē’), in which it is necessary to live without restrictions, which means that one lives in love for one's neighbor. This love for our neighbor contributes to unity, so that the anointing of God flows into the area of the cooperative priesthood (note: relationship with God the Father) within the body of Christ. As a result, the priesthood shines in a new way and the presence of God's blessing and life is revealed (cf. Psalm 133).
 

1 How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! 2 It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron’s beard, down on the collar of his robe. 3 It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the Lord bestows his blessing, even life forevermore.

 

As we move together in the love of God as saints, it results that people in the world are beginning to recognize the standard of the true discipleship of Jesus. (cf. John 13:35).

 

35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

 

In connection with the pure love (note: Greek ‘agạpē’) of the saints for one another and the resulting unity, the message to the church (note: Greek ‘ekklēsịa’ => community of saints – the called out) to Philadelphia has a special significance (see Revelation 3:7-8a).

 

7 “To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. 8a-b I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. …

 

The name of the region ‘Philadelphia’ means translated ‘brotherly love’ and is an indication of the importance of love and unity of believers in Christ for one another. This true and pure divine love for one another enables to enter into the spiritual dimensions of the mystery in Christ.

 

The legitimate entry into these secret/mysterious dimensions contributes to greater revelation in the way of wisdom and knowledge (cf. Colossians 2:2-3).

 

2 My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

 

In these spiritual places, the Lord is acting in a new way, beginning to strengthen us in our personal spiritual identity, along with the spiritual substance of revelatory truth in the shape of knowledge. In connection with this is also an intensification in the discipleship of Jesus Christ.

This is a principle revealed, when we look at the appointment of Simon (note: means ‘hearing’) by Jesus, to whom He gave the name Peter (note: means ‘rock’) (cf. Mark 3:16).

 

16 These are the twelve he appointed: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter), …

 

The disciple Simon transferred from the realm of ‘response’ to the realm of the presence of God's revelatory truth represented by the ‘rock’ (cf. Matthew 16:16-18).

 

16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. 18 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock (note: this revelatory knowledge) I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.

 

Through this revelatory knowledge Peter became a person with a spiritual mandate who was entitled to grant or deny spiritual access (cf. Matthew 16:19).

 

19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

 

 

It is required to follow Jesus Christ faithfully and to cultivate the fellowship with the Heavenly Father, as Jesus said in relation to prayer (cf. Matthew 6:6).

 

6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

 

The ‘room’ of which Jesus spoke was the small simple storehouse which was next to the farmhouse and was completely dark when the door was closed. It was thus a place of the mysteries of God, where the Father revealed Himself to the person praying in the way He intended to do.

 

This ‘dark place’ can also be compared to the dark cloud of God's glory that Solomon experienced and into which Moses entered on Mount Horeb (note: Sinai) to speak to God and to see Him (cf. 1 Kings 8:10-12; Exodus 24:15-18).

 

10 When the priests withdrew from the Holy Place, the cloud filled the temple of the Lord. 11 And the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled his temple. 12 Then Solomon said, “The Lord has said that he would dwell in a dark cloud; …

 

15 When Moses went up on the mountain, the cloud covered it, 16 and the glory of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai. For six days the cloud covered the mountain, and on the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from within the cloud.

17 To the Israelites the glory of the Lord looked like a consuming fire on top of the mountain.

18 Then Moses entered the cloud as he went on up the mountain. And he stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights.

 

As we cultivate personal fellowship with the Heavenly Father and follow Jesus Christ in sonship as well as live in divine love for one another, new appointments in Christ Jesus also come about, involving an expansion of identity and bringing forth of spiritual alignments. In these alignments is no room for competitive mindset (note: to compare oneself).

 

His calling or extension of identity brings the saints together under one banner, which is clearly shown in the calling of James and John, whom Jesus Christ also called ‘Boanerges – sons of thunder’ (cf. Mark 3:17).

 

17 James son of Zebedee and his brother John (to them he gave the name Boanerges, which means “sons of thunder”), …

 

Their calling makes it clear that it is so very important to hold fast to the promise in Christ (note: James; see Revelation 2:25) and to move forward in the grace of the God of Israel (note: John; see Titus 2:11-14).

 

… 25 except to hold on to what you have until I come.’

 

11 For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people.

12 It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope – the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.

 

It is the ‘thunder of God’ that reveals the power of His voice and contains His secrets. These thunders, when manifested in the structure of the seven thunders, carry the holiness of His revelatory Word within themselves, so it is not permitted to transfer them to a lower spiritual level (cf. Revelation 10:3-4 i.c.w. Matthew 7:6; Daniel 10:7).

 

… 3 and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion. When he shouted, the voices of the seven thunders spoke. 4 And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from heaven say, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said and do not write it down.”

 

6 “Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.

 

7 I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision; those who were with me did not see it, but such terror overwhelmed them that they fled and hid themselves.

 

Furthermore, the unconditional discipleship of Jesus Christ, as well as the walk in His triumph on the cross in the love of God and in unity with one another, leads to becoming a supportive force in the temple of God and growing into an identity in Christ that is accompanied by a high level of responsibility, which is connected with the identity of the Heavenly Father, His seat of government and the new identity of Christ (cf. Revelation 3:12).

 

12 The one who is victorious I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will they leave it. I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on them my new name.

 

This implies to be a ‘pillar’ according to Revelation 3:12 and means in a spiritual context that one understands how to connect and secure the spiritual dimensions to each other on behalf of God, similar to what James, Cephas (note: Peter) and John did, who were seen as pillars of the ‘ekklēsịa’ in Jerusalem (cf. Galatians 2:9).

 

… 9 James, Cephas and John, those esteemed as pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship when they recognized the grace given to me. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised.

 

The functional character of the supernatural pillars is comparable to an advisory function. Pillars have more of a function in support and administration of wisdom and knowledge, because they maintain and support the respective ‘things’ to which they are connected.

 

 

As we move forward with Christ Jesus, it is essential that we let go of the past time we have experienced with Him in order to be able to receive the new that the Lord has given us. In doing so, we do not forget what He has done good, but build on what He has done, while at the same time allowing His Spirit to bring forth what He wants to bring forth in this time (cf. Deuteronomy 4:9 i.c.w. Psalm 103:2).

 

9 Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them fade from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.

 

2 Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all his benefits – …

 

It is similar to the time of Adam and Abraham when the Lord caused a deep sleep to come upon them and brought forth or communicated what He wanted to bring into existence (cf. Genesis 2:21-22; Genesis 15:12.17-21).

 

21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs (note: side) and then closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.

 

12 As the sun was setting, Abram fell into a deep sleep, and a thick and dreadful darkness came over him. …

17 When the sun had set and darkness had fallen, a smoking firepot with a blazing torch appeared and passed between the pieces. 18 On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram and said, “To your descendants I give this land, from the Wadi of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates – 19 the land of the Kenites, Kenizzites, Kadmonites, 20 Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaites, 21 Amorites, Canaanites, Girgashites and Jebusites.”

 

The willingness of our hearts to draw near to Him and to allow ourselves to be drawn near to Him first brings about the necessary faithfulness in us, which allows us to live in the love and truth which is God Himself, and to witness His glory to others.

Only when we are able to grasp the authority entrusted to us from a mature attitude, sincere and free from self-righteousness in the faithful handling of responsibility, do we grow in our capacity to bear more of His glory. This increase of capacity in loyalty, brought about by closeness, is what gives rise to the advancement of the Kingdom, which reveals Him as the King of Kings and seeks no prestige in the world.

 

Amen and Amen.

 

In His Wisdom,

 

Daniel Glimm

In Genesis 49:20 we are told of Asher, one of the sons of Jacob, who received the blessing from his father to distribute royal food.

Genesis 49:20:
20 “Asher’s food will be rich; he will provide delicacies fit for a king.

Since it is the duty of kings to rule and the Word of God is food (cf. Matthew 4:4 i.c.w. John 6:35), I would like to share this message to refer to the royal nature of Jesus and the governmental seat of God.

Matthew 4:4:
4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’(cf. Deuteronomy 8:3)”

John 6:35:
35 Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

 

The Higher Level of Authority in Christ

At certain times, we enter with Jesus Christ into spheres in which Christ reveals Himself in a higher level of authority. This revelation requires to administer responsibly the things that are revealed to us and as a result, we move forward responsibly with the revelation made about Jesus.

Personally, I am convinced that we are at a time when Jesus Christ is meeting us at a higher level of authority, which implies that He reveals Himself as the Word of God in the facet of the King of kings and Lord of lords (cf. Revelation 19:13.16).

Revelation 19:13.16:
13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. …

16 On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: king of kings and lord of lords.

 

This dimension of the Word of God is on a higher spiritual level, which is why it is necessary to have approached Jesus Christ in this realm of authority in order to see and understand His royal government accordingly.

Anyone who looks at Christ in this royal facet of government from a lower spiritual level would be afraid and might perceive Him as judging without love, which doesn't correspond to the revelatory truth of the Word of God at all.

It is the desire of God that we, as saints, enter into this royal structure of Jesus and identify fully with His royal movement and royal identity by becoming one with it. As a result, we reflect Jesus Christ as the eternal King on earth in the right way.

In order to reach this level of the ‘Body of Christ’ as King of kings, it is necessary for us to pass through and build upon various spiritual levels as believers in Christ. These are:

11 I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and wages war.

12 His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself.

13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God.

14 The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean.

15 Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. “He will rule them with an iron scepter.” He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.

16 On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: king of kings and lord of lords.

 

 

In order for Christ to be represented in His eternal kingdom government according to the Word of God, it is first necessary to move as a saint in the unified structure of the white, glorious war horse, which is the magnificent steed of Judah (note: means ‘praise’), because Jesus Christ is the lion of the tribe of Judah (cf. Zechariah 10:3b-5 i.c.w. Revelation 5:5a)

 

… 3b for the Lord Almighty will care for his flock, the people of Judah, and make them like a proud horse in battle.

4 From Judah will come the cornerstone, from him the tent peg, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler.

5 Together they will be like warriors in battle trampling their enemy into the mud of the streets. They will fight because the Lord is with them, and they will put the enemy horsemen to shame.

 

5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, …

 

This abiding state and residence in the structure of the white glorious horse of Judah implies a lifestyle in true worship and unity with saints, who are unreservedly willing to let themselves be transformed by the Holy Spirit from a flock of sheep to the level of the glorious battle horse, in order to carry Jesus Christ and reflect Him on earth in authority.

 

These facets mentioned above mean the walk in:

If we, as believers in Christ, don't go through and live in these different levels, we will not be able to properly understand the royal dominion of Christ in order to act upon it according to the will of God. It is, however, the blood of Jesus with which He bought us to serve in this governmental rule (cf. Revelation 1:5-6).

 

… 5 and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, 6 and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father – to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.

 

The transformation from the flock of sheep into the magnificently war horse presupposes the renewing of the mind. This will result in us leaving the lifestyle of a flock of sheep that stays in the meadow (note: symbolizes life in redemption, obedience and searching for ones own provision – i.e. eating grass – without being in a unitary mandate of authority; see John 10:9.27-28), and entering into the unitary structure of the white warhorse of the Lion of Judah, as the prophet Zechariah prophesied.

 

By this we are able to not merely follow Jesus Christ but to carry Him as King of Kings and LORD OF LORDS in honor in spiritual battle, wherever He wants to go. In this context Jesus Christ doesn't guide us by standing, as a shepherd does his flock, but by sitting.

 

This points to Jesus Christ ascending into a higher level in the supernatural as a result of knowledge and spiritual maturity of His people as this higher level is connected to humility, His kingdom rule and the covering anointing (see Luke 22:69 i.c.w. Colossians 3:1-2).

 

69 But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God.

 

1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

 

When Jesus Christ rides on His white horse, the word of God is manifested in power!

 

To this effect we are still led by His hand, and we experience the covering presence of His faithfulness and truth, and also the strength of divine righteousness which emanates from Him. This specific presence reveals Him speaking the word of truth to cut off all adverseness that needs to be cut off, and to expose everything that needs to be exposed.

 

 

The unconditional discipleship of Jesus causes the Heavenly Father to permit us to enter into spiritual dimensions, which means seeing the heavens open like John (cf. Revelation 19:11a).

 

11 I saw heaven standing open …

 

These dimensions are spheres where the Lord teaches us His kingdom principles so that we may walk and serve in them by knowledge.

 

It is essential that we as believers mature into saints who are able to walk in the dimensions of the King of kings and Lord of lords in order to establish justice according to the will of God.

 

Revelation 5:1-7 clearly shows that there are different levels in the heavens that are associated with different tasks and authorities.

 

1 Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals.

2 And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?”

3 But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it.

4 I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside.

5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

6 Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.

7 He went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.

 

If, we as saints, would like to enter into the sphere that is associated with God's hidden plan, it is needed that we grow spiritually in order to stand in the full maturity of the fullness of Christ (cf. Ephesians 4:13).

 

… 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

 

In connection with this is the principle of faithfulness as there is nothing which can replace faithfulness and it is this continuous faithfulness in the little, which is connected with the great (cf. Matthew 25:21 i.c.w. Luke 16:10a).

 

21 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’

 

10 “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, …

 

This means that we cannot receive the great things from God if we are not faithful in the little things in all areas in life.

 

It is important that, step by step, we take the path into the dimensions of God, by which we are led by the Holy Spirit teaching us, so that we may grow in spiritual maturity.

 

In Revelation 5 it says that no one in heaven, on earth or beneath the earth (note: Sheol) was found worthy to open the scroll (note: Revelation of the future) with the seven seals.

 

This statement of the strong angel can sound irritating, since John was already in heaven in his spirit being, but the angel said that no one in heaven, on earth and beneath the earth was found worthy to open the scroll.

 

After John had this conversation with the strong angel and then with one of the twenty-four elders whose residence is usually in the throne room, obviously a higher spiritual level entered the spiritual region of heaven where John was staying.

 

This higher spiritual level had entered in order to reveal the principle of spiritual territorial levels of authority. As a result of the elder's intervention, the spirit of John was directed to a higher spiritual realm, which was not literally ‘heaven’ but the throne room of God.

 

The throne room is the governmental area of the Heavenly Father and the Son. It is the sphere in which God keeps His hidden revelation and reveals it according to His will and sovereign plan.

 

The words of the elder refer to the kingdom government and authority of Jesus, as he spoke of the Lion of the tribe of Judah and the root of David. The lion is the king of the land animals and David was king of Israel.

 

After John heard the revelatory truth of the elder, he began to look into a higher realm of the Spirit, so that he now looked into the throne room and saw the Lamb of God, who was authorized by God to receive the scroll with the seven seals from Him and open it.

 

 

We can learn from this that in order to receive the mysteries of God, it is required to live in the sacrifice (note: triumph) of Jesus and in the throne room of God (cf. Colossians 3:1-2 i.c.w. Revelation 5:6-7).

 

1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

 

6 Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.

7 He went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.

 

Receiving the mysteries of God is only possible through the influence of revelatory truth that has been preached to us (note: either by the Holy Spirit or a saint), so that we can increase in faith and through obedience get the authority to gain insight into higher realms of the Spirit (cf. Romans 10:17 i.c.w. John 16:13-15).

 

17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.

 

13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.

14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. 15 All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”

 

The spiritual realm of the throne room of God includes an understanding of authority in general, superior authority as well as walking under the proper spiritual mantle of anointing. This is very clear by comprehension of the Hebrew word for ‘throne’ in its meaning.

 

=> A throne is the seat of a high priest, military chief or king. It is also the seat of royal power and authority (see 2 Samuel 7:13; Psalm 45:6; Psalm 89:14; Ezekiel 1:26; Daniel 7:9-10; Revelation 4:2-3; Revelation 20:4a.11).
The Hebrew word for “throne” is “kiśśē'” and also means the royal rule of God in the form of sitting on the throne that stands in heaven with the earth as a footstool or in the temple in Jerusalem (see Job 26:9; Psalm 11:4; Psalm 97:2; Isaiah 66:1; Isaiah 6:1).
The Hebrew root word of the word “throne” is “kāśāh” and means “to cover”. <= (note: The text set in ‘=>’ is a part excerpt from the “Prophet's Dictionary” by Paula A. Price, Ph. D.; page 558 and the Elberfelder Study Bible on the word “throne-kiśśē'” and “cover-kāśāh”; word key number: H3749, H3750)

 

This kind of appropriate covering is illustrated through the calling of Elisha by Elijah, who placed Elisha under his mantle of anointing as a prophet at the right time in the right manner according to the order of God.

 

It was not Elisha who arbitrarily decided to enter a new field of authority, but God's perfectly chosen time of discipleship (note: Elisha was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen) and God's chosen presence of a higher spiritual authority represented by the prophet Elijah (see 1 Kings 19:19-20a).

 

19 So Elijah went from there and found Elisha son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen, and he himself was driving the twelfth pair. Elijah went up to him and threw his cloak around him. 20a Elisha then left his oxen and ran after Elijah. …

 

This encounter between the prophet Elijah and his future disciple Elisha is similar to John's encounter with the strong angel and one of the twenty-four elders (cf. Revelation 5:2a.5a).

 

2a And I saw a mighty angel …

5a Then one of the elders said to me, …

 

Only through the testimony of the elder, John decided to enter into the ‘sound frame’ of the Lion of the tribe of Judah (note: the Lion of Judah isn't literally visible in the book of Revelation). That sound included the authority with which John got encircled and made himself one with.

 

As a result, John was entitled by this sound to look into the spiritual realm of the government of the Lord in order to see the Lamb of God in action and become familiar with the mysteries of God (note: sealed revelation).

 

Amen and Amen.
