HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYS – A WHITE STONE WITH A NEW NAME / REVELATION 2:17

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:17

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.

HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYS – A WHITE STONE WITH A NEW NAME / REVELATION 2:17

HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYS

We must pay attention and respond to the warnings of the Holy Spirit today. He continues to speak the same words Jesus spoke to the seven churches of Asia, commanding us to stay true to God’s Word, overcome sin in the world and not to tolerate immoral behavior among the people of God. If we lose our victory in these important areas, we lose God’s favor, His guiding presence and the Holy Spirit’s power. In the end, we will become enemies of God’s kingdom. But there is continued promise of help for those who remain faithful and depend completely on God to help them overcome. These are the ones who receive the hidden manna (Psalms 78:24; John 6:48-51, 58, 63), which means spiritual life, nourishment and fulfillment from a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We will also receive a “white stone,” which represents the triumph of our faith over everything that was aimed to destroying our devotion to Christ.

A WHITE STONE WITH A NEW NAME

In ancient times, certain kinds of stones carried special meaning. In John’s time, a white rock was sometimes used in judicial matters as a vote of “not guilty.” In the context of this passage, it would represent forgiveness and the statement of spiritual innocence for those who had overcome immoral desires and worldly lusts. They were declared to be faithful to God. Relating to Christian victory, this stone might also be considered as the admission to Christ’s ultimate victory banquet (Revelation 19:9). The stone would bear the God-given name of the carrier and would mean that the carrier had a new nature, authority and full inheritance with God. The name would designate the bearer of the stone as a forgiven servant of Christ and a victorious conqueror (Isaiah 62:2; 65:15).

FIGHT AGAINST THEM / REVELATION 2:16

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:16

Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

FIGHT AGAINST THEM / REVELATION 2:16

Jesus opposes any persons within His churches who promote a tolerant attitude toward sin, especially those who claim to follow Christ (Revelation 2:15; Revelation 2:6; 1 Corinthians 5:2; Galatians 5:21). He promises to wage war against any hypocritical and immoral person whose example invites others to follow in that destructive path (Revelation 1:16). Their only hope is to sincerely repent (Matthew 3:2). middle

THE TEACHING OF BALAAM / REVELATION 2:14

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

THE TEACHING OF BALAAM / REVELATION 2:14

Balaam was a false prophet of the Old Testament who sold his services to an ungodly king and advised the Midianite women how to tempt the Israelites to compromise their faith by idolatry (worshiping false gods or anything in place of the one true God) and immoral behavior (Numbers 22:5, 7; 25:1-2; 31:16; 2 Peter 2:15). For this reason, Balaam represents corrupt and deceptive teachers or preachers – or any believers – who lead or influence God’s people to compromise with worldly beliefs and behaviors, all for the sake of selfish interests or personal advancement. The church at Pergamum evidently had teachers who taught that spiritually saving faith and immoral lifestyle were compatible. To guard against this subtle, but destructive, influence and preserve our effectiveness as part of Christ’s church, we must ask ourselves: Could our outward testimony for Christ be threatened by inwardly compromising the truth?

WHERE SATAN HAS HIS THRONE / REVELATION 2:13

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:13

I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

WHERE SATAN HAS HIS THRONE / REVELATION 2:13

This may mean a place where the influence of Satan and evil was very strong, especially since Pergamum was the official center of Roman emperor worship in the province of Asia. Antipas is thought to be the first Christian in Asia to be killed for his faith in Christ. According to tradition, he was roasted to death in a bronze kettle during the reign of Emperor Domitian.

THE SECOND DEATH / REVELATION 2:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:11

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.

THE SECOND DEATH / REVELATION 2:11

This refers to spiritual death – permanent separation from God and eternal punishment in the lake of fire (Revelation 20:6; Revelation 20:14; Revelation 21:8) – which faithful overcomers will escape (Revelation 2:7).

CROWN OF LIFE / REVELATION 2:10

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:10

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.

CROWN OF LIFE / REVELATION 2:10

The word translated “crown” (Greek stephanon) does not refer to a crown worn by royalty (Revelation 12:3; 13:1; 19:12). This word refers to a wreath or victor’s crown originally made of palm leaves and placed on the heads of winning athletes (Revelation 3:11; 4:4, 10; Revelation 6:2; Revelation 9:7; 12:1; 14:14). But the same word is also used of the crown of thorns brutally placed on Jesus’ head (Mark 15:7) and of the crowns of gold on the 24 elders in Revelation 4:4. Faithful followers of Christ are promised eternal life with Christ as their ultimate crown of reward.

POVERTY / REVELATION 2:9

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:9

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.

POVERTY / REVELATION 2:9

Poverty (Greek ptocheia) literally means “having nothing, at all.” Smyrna was a proud Asian City closely aligned with Rome and eager to submit to the empire’s demands for emperor worship. Smyrna also had a large community of Jews that rejected Christ, though they claimed to follow God. In truth, they were under Satan’s control and helped to create a hostile environment for the Christians. Polycarp, one of the most famous early Christian martyrs (killed for his faith), was the bishop of Smyrna. The persecution and poverty of the believers at Smyrna were extensive. They were economically at the lowest point, yet Jesus says they were spiritually rich. Note the contrast to the Laodicean church, which had great material wealth, yet was considered spiritually “wretched, pitiful, poor” (Revelation 3:17; Matthew 6:20; 2 Corinthians 6:10; James 2:5). To keep our Christian faith and lives in proper perspective, we should ask ourselves: Is serving Jesus a matter of convenience for me, or is it truly costing me something? am I serving God more for what I can get from Him, or for how I can surrender myself for His kingdom and purposes?

TO HIM WHO OVERCOMES / REVELATION 2:7

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:7

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.

TO HIM WHO OVERCOMES / REVELATION 2:7

An overcomer (Greek nikon) is one who has responded to God’s grace (His undeserved favor, love and spiritual enablement) through faith in Christ, has accepted God’s forgiveness and has entered a personal relationship with Him. But more than that, an overcomer continues to rely on God’s grace and to show true faith by remaining passionately devoted to Christ. The overcomer lives in consistent victory over sin, Satan and the corrupt world system.

  1. Even when surrounded by strong opposition and rebellion against God and His people, overcomers refuse to conform to worldly patterns of belief and behavior. They also firmly resist any ungodly tendencies among people within the church (Revelation 2:24). By hearing and responding with obedience to what the Spirit says to the churches, overcomers remain faithful to Christ to the very end (Revelation 2:26). Overcomers accept only God’s standard of living as revealed in His Word (Revelation 3:8). 
  2. Christ promises several things to the overcomers – and only the overcomers – in His churches. They will eat of the tree of life in God’s paradise; they will not be hurt by the second death (Revelation 2:11; a spiritual death, which is permanent separation from God). Overcomers will be given a new name in heaven and receive hidden manna (Revelation 2:17; heavenly “food”; Psalms 78:24); they will be given authority over the nations (Revelation 2:26); and they will not have their names removed from the book of life but will be honored by Christ in the presence of His Father and the angels (Revelation 3:5). They will remain with God in His temple and be identified with the name of God, Christ and the new Jerusalem (Revelation 3:12). Overcomers will reign with Christ (Revelation 3:21) and will forever be God’s children (Revelation 21:7).
  3. The secret of victory for overcomers is Christ’s sacrificial death for their sins (Romans 6:2-11), their own faithful testimony about Jesus and their persistent love for Christ, even to death (Revelation 12:11; 1 John 5:4). Note that we either overcome sin, the world and Satan, or we are overcome by them and are ultimately thrown into the lake of fire (Revelation 2:11; Revelation 3:5; Revelation 20:15; Revelation 21:8). There is no middle ground or in-between group.

YOU HATE THE PRACTICES OF THE NICOLAITANS, WHICH I ASLO HATE / REVELATION 2:6

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:6

But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

YOU HATE THE PRACTICES OF THE NICOLAITANS, WHICH I ASLO HATE / REVELATION 2:6

The Nicolaitans (Revelation 2:15) had given in to compromise with the pagan (ungodly) society around them. They taught that spiritual freedom and liberty allowed people to engage in immoral behavior without fear of punishment. They felt that because of God’s grace (His unearned favor, love and mercy), these behaviors did not affect one’s spiritual salvation or relationship with Christ. The New Testament clearly contradicts this belief, telling us plainly that such persons will not inherit God’s kingdom (1 Corinthians 6:9-10). God hates false and deceptive teaching that claims we can be saved and at the same time live immoral lives. To hate what God hated is a primary characteristic of those who are loyal to Christ (Psalms 139:21; Proverbs 8:13; John 3:19).

REMOVE YOUR LAMPSTAND / REVELATION 2:5

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Revelation 2:5

Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

REMOVE YOUR LAMPSTAND / REVELATION 2:5

Christ will remove any congregation or church from its place and destiny in God’s kingdom if it has lost its true passion and purpose for God and does not repent and renew its love for and obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ (1 John 5:3; 2 John 1:6).
