Today we want to see more concerning the way to experience the Triune God in detail, as typified by the lampstand, so that we may become the reproduction of the lampstand, so that the way would be paved for the Lord to come back and possess the earth. We need to let Christ grow in us: the more He grows in us and through us, the more light there is the more we allow Christ to grow in our being and to spread in every part of our inner being, the more He can shine in us and through us with the light of life. We need to get out of our introspective self by looking away unto Jesus, the One who is in resurrection and who is resurrection itself when we look away unto Jesus, we are transported by Him into the clefts of the rock and the coverts of the precipice to be one with the crucified and resurrected Christ. If we would shine forth the light of life, we need to be in resurrection – and not in our natural life. We should be those who walk by the spirit, live in spirit, and do everything in spirit for the building up of the church as the house of God. Today in the church there should be only Christ – He is all and in all – and only the Spirit should be the One flowing, living, and directing everything. The type of the lampstand points to the Triune God: the Father is the nature and element (the gold), the Son is the embodiment and expression (the shape or form), and the Spirit is the expression and shining (the seven lamps).įurthermore, the Triune God is not merely “shining for all to see the light” – He is a living, golden tree who is growing, branching out, budding, and blossoming to express God on all the earth! And His growth and branching out takes place in us, His people: the golden lampstand is also a type of the church as the reproduction of Christ and the reprint of the Spirit. The golden lampstand in the tabernacle, the house of God, was a piece of furniture designed by God Himself: only God can design such a lamp which bears light and yet looks like a tree, with cups, calyxes, and almond blossoms!
