The Lord’s Lamp Stands
One day my wife and I decided to replace a lamp that was in bad shape in our living room. There were two in the room but we only intended to buy one. We went to the city and looked and looked for a silver lamp until we were pretty tired of looking and we were running out of places to go. Then we saw a store and decided to go in knowing they had lamps but figured the price would be a bit much for us.
Surprisingly, they had a heavy lamp that we liked and it was less than half price. Unlike us we decided to get two and replace both lamps. The truth be known, I really didn’t want to go looking again later. Enough of this! No doubt God was in this unknown to us.
Arriving home and walking into the living room I knew the lamps were to be put at both ends of our love seat couch, not where the old lamps were sitting.
The Lord soon revealed that the two silver Lamp Stands were symbolic of the Lamp Stands in the Bible and I knew they were portraying something.
We also learned that the three balls on each Lamp Stand inlaid with Mother of Pearl had Biblical significance.
Revelation 21:21 ILB
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls respectively each one of the gates was of one pearl. And the street if the city was pure gold, as transparent glass.
On 6-26-2016, to make sure we weren’t running in our own spirits I submitted a question to the Lord in a Judgement Meeting asking if we needed to have the lights on in the Lamp Stands 24/7 (continuously)?
The Lord’s answers were affirmative, which further confirmed the significance of the Lamp Stands. Through time the Lord has spoken about them, at times had me move them forward, along with other significant portrayals done in front of them. All at the Lord's command.
