Lighting the Seven Lamps of the Candlestick as shown in Numbers 8: The LORD ALMIGHTY spoke to Moses and Aaron regarding lighting the seven lamps of the candlestick. When Aaron does as commanded, they should shine towards the front. Aaron did as he was commanded. This is the work of the candlestick.
The lampstand was made of hammered gold from its base to the decorative flowers on top, exactly like the pattern the LORD had described to Moses. We can see the Sovereign LORD’s artistic side, even though we see it every day in the beauty of the earth.
Numbers 8
1 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto Aaron and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick.
3 And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over against the candlestick, as the Lord commanded Moses.
4 And this work of the candlestick was of beaten gold, unto the shaft thereof, unto the flowers thereof, was beaten work: according unto the pattern which the Lord had shewed Moses, so he made the candlestick.
The seven lamps and the candlesticks and the light and the oil to light the light all are represented, schoolmasters. Remember in the book of Revelation when John was taken in the spirit on the LORD’s day? John turned to see the voice that spoke with him.
Do you remember what he saw? On the LORD’s day, the Spirit took control of John, and behind him, he heard a loud voice that sounded like a trumpet. The voice said, “Write in a book what you see. Then send it to the seven churches in Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.”
Then John turned to see who was speaking to him. When he turned to see who was speaking to him, he saw seven gold lampstands or candlesticks. Therewith the lampstands (candlesticks) was someone who seemed to be the Son of Man.
Voice Like the Roar of a Waterfall
HE was wearing a robe that reached down to his feet, and a gold cloth was wrapped around HIS chest. HIS head and HIS hair were white as wool or snow, and HIS eyes looked like flames of fire.
The feet of the person John saw were glowing like bronze being heated or burnt in a furnace. HIS voice sounded like the roar of a waterfall. The Being held seven stars in HIS right hand, and a sharp double-edged sword came from his mouth.
HIS face was shining as bright as the sun at noon. Here is the connecting part; CHRIST announced who HE was to John and proceeded to tell him the mystery of the seven stars in HIS right hand and the seven golden candlesticks or lampstands.
Are You Ready?
The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches. When Paul said the things of the Law were a schoolmaster, he was not lying.
The Old Testament is a rendering of the real thing in Heaven. This includes the laws and all the patterns of the buildings, even the clothing. There are many questions that can come from this.
Are we living the replica, are we the simulation, are we the colony of the main Heavenly Kingdom? These questions and more answered in a Kingdom of Priests…

From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. The disciples asked, “Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?” And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
