More about the Godhead in Isaiah 10-11 and Revelation 1 & 3-5

(compiled and formatted by Bill Stevenson)

Note: The following Bible study was in response to an e-mail friend’s statement that there were seven Spirits of
God” and I didn’t remember such. The Scripture below is from the Lockman Foundation’s Amplified Bible
with my emphasis of deity titles and bolding.

Revelation 3:1-3
1 “And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Sardis write:
These are the words of Him Who has
the seven Spirits of God [the sevenfold Holy Spirit] and the seven stars:
‘I know your record {and} what you are doing;
you are supposed to be alive,
but [in reality] you are dead.
2 Rouse yourselves {and} keep awake,
and strengthen {and} invigorate what remains and is on the point of dying;
for I have not found a thing that you have done [any work of yours]
meeting the requirements of My God {or} perfect in His sight.
3 So call to mind the lessons you received and heard;
continually lay them to heart {and} obey them, and repent.
In case you will not rouse yourselves {and} keep awake {and watch},
I will come upon you like a thief,
and you will not know {or} suspect at what hour I will come.’”

Revelation 4:2-5
2 “At once I came under the [Holy] Spirit's power,
and behold, a throne stood in Heaven, with One seated on the throne!
3 And He Who sat there appeared like [the crystalline brightness of] jasper and [the fiery] sardius
and encircling the throne there was a halo that looked like [a rainbow of] emerald.
4 Twenty-four other thrones surrounded the throne,
and seated on these thrones were twenty-four elders
(the members of the Heavenly Sanhedrin),
arrayed in white clothing, with crowns of gold upon their heads.
5 Out from the throne came flashes of lightning and rumblings and peals of thunder,
and in front of the throne seven blazing torches burned,
which are the seven Spirits of God [the sevenfold Holy Spirit];”

Isaiah 10:33-11:5
33 “[But just when the Assyrian is in sight of His goal]
behold, The Lord, The Lord Of Hosts,
will lop off the beautiful boughs with terrorizing force;
the high in stature will be hewn down and the lofty will be brought low.
34 And He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an ax,
and Lebanon [the Assyrian] with its majestic trees
shall fall by The Mighty One,
{and} mightily.
1 And there shall come forth a Shoot out of the stock of Jesse [David's father],
and a Branch out of his roots shall grow {and} bear fruit.
2 And The Spirit Of The Lord shall rest upon Him--
The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of counsel and might,
The Spirit of knowledge
and of the reverential
{and} obedient fear of The Lord [the 7 aspects of the Holy Spirit]--
3 and shall make Him of quick understanding,
{and} His delight shall be in the reverential
{and} obedient fear of The Lord.

1
And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes,
neither decide by the hearing of His ears;
4 But with righteousness {and} justice shall He judge the poor
and decide with fairness
for the meek, the poor, {and} the downtrodden of the Earth;
and He shall smite the Earth
{and} the oppressor with the rod of His mouth,
and with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of His waist
and faithfulness the girdle of His loins.”

Revelation 1:4-6
4 “John to the seven assemblies (churches) that are in Asia:
may grace (God's unmerited favor) be granted to you
and spiritual peace (the peace of Christ's Kingdom)
from Him Who is and Who was and Who is to come,
and from the seven Spirits [the sevenfold Holy Spirit] before His throne,
5 and from Jesus Christ
the faithful {and} trustworthy Witness,
the Firstborn of the dead [first to be brought back to life]
and the Prince (Ruler) of the kings of the Earth.
To Him Who ever loves us
and has once [for all] loosed
{and} freed us from our sins by His own blood,
6 and formed us into a kingdom (a royal race),
priests to His God and Father--
to Him be the glory and the power {and} the majesty and the dominion
throughout the ages {and} forever and ever. Amen (so be it).”

Revelation 5:5-10
5 “Then one of the elders [of the Heavenly Sanhedrin] said to me,
‘Stop weeping!
See, The Lion Of The Tribe Of Judah, The Root (Source) Of David,
has won (has overcome and conquered)!
He can open the scroll and break its seven seals!
6 And there between the throne and the four living creatures (beings)
and among the elders [of the heavenly Sanhedrin] I saw a Lamb standing,
as though it had been slain,
with seven horns and with seven eyes,
which are the seven Spirits of God [the sevenfold Holy Spirit]
Who have been sent [on duty far and wide] into all the Earth.
7 He then went and took the scroll from the right hand of Him Who sat on the throne.
8 And when He had taken the scroll,
the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders [of the Heavenly Sanhedrin]
prostrated themselves before the Lamb.
Each was holding a harp (lute or guitar),
and they had golden bowls full of incense
(fragrant spices and gums for burning),
which are the prayers of God's people (the saints).
9 And [now] they sing a new song, saying,
‘You are worthy to take the scroll and to break the seals that are on it,
for You were slain (sacrificed),
and with Your blood You purchased men unto God
from every tribe and language and people and nation.
10 And You have made them a Kingdom (royal race) and priests to our God,
and they shall reign [as kings] over the Earth!’”
