'AATHAVAN' BIBLE MEDITATION No:- 1,063 Tuesday, December 26,
2023
"Fear
none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some
of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten
days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life."
(Revelation 2: 10)
Just as in this world we belong to different denominations of the Christian Church, we are also in different ranks according to our conduct in the spiritual life. Today's meditation verse is addressed to the congregation of Smyrna. Here the Spirit tells us who belong to this church of Smyrna.
This meditation responds to
the slander some say against those who want to live a spiritual life from
traditional Christian churches. Yes beloved, today's verse instructs us to live
faithfully in our spiritual faith without worrying about what others accuse us
of.
Who are the people of Smyrna
can be understood by looking at the previous verse of today's verse. "I
know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know
the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the
synagogue of Satan." (Revelation 2: 9)
That is, "I know your
works. You think you are poor because the people who call themselves spiritual
are criticizing you, but in reality you are rich. I know people who speak
against you saying that we are true Jews and you are not (we are true spiritual
people and you are not). Don't worry, it is Satan's people are those who accuse
you," says the Lord.
Those who suffer from the
above experience belong to this Smyrna church. That means they are true
spiritual people. But those who are slandered by others. Therefore, do not be
afraid of the sufferings you suffer. This is a test that the devil will tempt
you for a while. You will be afflicted for ten days (i.e. you will be afflicted
for some days). But be true to your faith even unto death, and I will give you
the crown of life, says the Lord.
Beloved, do not worry about
your spiritual life and your accusers. If you are experiencing such spiritual
suffering, the Lord Jesus Christ says that you should endure it patiently and
live firmly in your faith.
Today's verse continues, "He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that
overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death." (Revelation 2: 11) Yes,
when you endure spiritual suffering and live faithfully, the fire of hell
called the second death will not damage you.
"Ten days thou shalt be
afflicted. But thou shalt be faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown
of life." Says the Lord Jesus Christ. I mean, these sufferings are only
for a few days. As long as you live with it, victory is your right. Let us
continue in our spiritual faith.
