This week at our EGS (Encountering God Service) Mike Bickle shared from Revelation 5 about “The 7fold beauty Jesus’ Leadership.” This was a powerful and very transforming message as Mike spent most of his time breaking down the 7 areas of leadership that Jesus receives during His millennial reign on the earth.
Mike brought out the reality that these 7 areas (Power, Riches, Wisdom, Strength, Honor, Glory and Blessing) are things that Jesus actually receives during this earthly season (Rev. 5:12). Currently Jesus isn’t given all the Power, all the Riches or all the Wisdom. But there is coming a day, when the nations will gladly hand over the strength of their resources to the only One who is both fully God and fully Man.
Here are a few quotes from that message;
“Jesus is deserving of our unqualified trust in His leadership because of the way that He has lived His life before God and Man.”
“Jesus is worthy of our time, our resources and our energy. The devil tries to get us in an adversarial role with God accusing Him to us of being unfair, unjust and unsafe.”
“The stunning reality of Daniel 7 and Revelation 5 is not that God approached God to take over the leadership of the nations, but that, that God was a Man, Christ Jesus.”
“When God became a Man, He didn’t lose what He already was, but He added to what He was not.”
Here is a link to Mike’s notes and possibly a video of the sermon.
