True Riches in Christ

The letter to the church at Smyrna comes from Jesus, who declares Himself as "the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive." This description highlights Christ's eternal nature and affirms His sovereignty over life and death. Jesus holds the keys to Death and Hell, a comforting truth for the persecuted church at Smyrna.

The name Smyrna means "myrrh," an embalming spice, which seems prophetic as this church underwent immense suffering. Faith in Christ cost these believers their livelihoods and social standing. Poverty and imprisonment plagued them. Even so, Jesus calls them rich, for while poor in earthly goods, they overflowed in spiritual wealth and heavenly hope.

Leaving Our First Love

The letter to the church at Ephesus in Revelation 2 opens with a beautiful description of Jesus, who holds the seven stars and walks among the lampstands. This imagery reminds us that Christ is the centre of the church. He is the One we orbit around as we shine His light in the darkness.

Jesus commends the Ephesian church for their devotion to righteousness. They worked hard, persevered through trials, and maintained doctrinal purity by exposing false teachers. The Ephesians had a lot going for them. They seemed to be a model church.

Eternal Echoes: A Devotional Journey through the Seven Churches

The book of Revelation contains mysteries and prophecies that have confounded readers for centuries. But nestled among the apocalyptic visions are seven letters written directly to seven specific churches in Asia Minor during the first century A.D. On the surface, these letters from Jesus seem simple enough. However, a closer look reveals significant convicting messages for churches and believers today.

Over the next few weeks, I want us to explore these seven letters to the churches mentioned in Revelation 2-3. As we break down each one, I pray we’ll uncover powerful truths to apply to our walks with Christ. Though initially written to actual local churches, the instructions, encouragements, warnings, and promises Jesus gives to the seven churches speak volumes to us now.
