ARE YOU A WHO WITH AN EAR?

“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” (Revelation 2:11, 17, 29, 3:6,13,22 NKJV)

“He who has as ear, let him hear what the Spirit says…”    I am walking down the path of Revelation in this encouragement.  I believe it is to paint for you the beautiful picture of Jesus that John delineated through the words of the Holy Spirit in the last book of His love letter to us.  Please walk this path with me because…

“All seven letters to the churches are vitally important to us, because they are the inspired Word of God. Each contains a message for us—either instructions or warnings for us to heed, lest we fall into the same snares as six of the churches.” (Dr. Hilton Sutton, Revelation Revealed, pg. 71)

Jesus begins each letter to the church by telling them what they are doing right.  He then tells the churches where they have wandered from the right way.  He calls each church to repent.  Lastly, he warns the churches of the consequences of their actions if they continue to disobey His words and corrections.

All of the seven letters end with:

“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” (Revelation 2:11, 17, 29, 3:6,13,22 NKJV)

Are you a WHO with an ear?  Walk with Holy Spirit and I as we navigate on this journey through the REVELATION of Jesus.  As I used to tell my boys, “Turn on your listening ears.”  We all know how to turn a deaf ear.  Do not  do that.  Let these words sink into your ears.  Take them.  File them away in your memory.  Hold onto them.  They are of vital importance.  Heed the warnings and reap the rewards.  Hear, obey and overcome. 

I enCOURAGE you to always listen and see what the Holy Spirit says.  However, when Jesus says, “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”  I know that I am a who that has an ear, so my physical and spiritual ears need to perk up and listen to Holy Spirit.  You are a who that has ears, right?  We are all who’s with ears!  He is talking to us all and we will benefit if we tune in.  Please, do not tune out Holy Spirit because you think there is nothing more for Him to teach you.  He is infinite in wisdom and willing to share.
