I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man. Revelation 1:12-13
RECOMMENDED READING
Revelation 1:12-20
People think the book of Revelation is hard to interpret because of all the symbols. But the writer, John, interprets many of them for us. For example, the seven golden lampstands in chapter 1 represent the seven churches to whom this letter was originally addressed (Revelation 1:20). Jesus is walking among His churches on earth; He is in the midst of them.
Let’s consider two implications of this. First, the Lord is present-through His Spirit-whenever His people meet. He said, “For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them” (Matthew 18:20). Remind yourself of this as you prepare for church this weekend!
Second, this also pictures the desired fellowship Jesus longs to have with us. He wants to be in the center of His Church and the center of our lives. Imagine how hard it would be to ride a bicycle if the tires were off center, if some of the spokes were shorter and some of them were longer! As you go about your day, let Jesus be central and supreme in all that you do.

Christ does not exist in order to make much of us. We exist in order to enjoy making much of Him.
