The term Seven Spirits of God appears four times in the Book of Revelation.   The meaning of the Seven Spirits of God has been interpreted in multiple ways. 

Revelation 1:4   John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne,

This tells us the seven Spirits are before the Fathers and the Lords throne, from Him is Jesus.

We know that the Lord (Jesus) is setting at the right hand of the Father.

Romans 8:33-34 Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.  (34)  Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.  {Grace}

Ephesians 1:20-21 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, (21)  far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

Colossians 3:1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 

Revelation 3:1 (Jesus words) “And to the angel of the church in Sardis write, ‘These things says He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead.

This tells us the seven Spirits of God and a new thing, seven stars.

This tells us the seven Spirits of God are the seven lamps of fire burning before the throne.

Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals.”  (6)  And I looked, and behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth.

We find that the seven horns and seven eyes are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth.

Since there are seven Spirits of God, each one is Holy, since they are from God and He sends them all out.   What are these 7 Spirits.

Does the book of Isaiah, names each Spirit, the seven Spirits of God. 

Are these 7 Spirits of God the gifts He gives each of us.

Isaiah 11:1-2 There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.  (2)  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 fear of the LORD. 

Are these the 7 Spirits of the Lord before the throne of God we just covered?  Including the Holy Spirit.

What are the 7 gifts or grace from the Holy Spirit

Romans 12:6-8 We have different gifts based on the grace that was given to us. So if your gift is prophecy, use your gift in proportion to your faith. (7) If your gift is serving, devote yourself to serving others. If it is teaching, devote yourself to teaching others. (8) If it is encouraging, devote yourself to encouraging others. If it is sharing, share generously. If it is leading, lead enthusiastically. If it is helping, help cheerfully.

What are the results of the Holy Spirit in individuals (fruit). 

This is how God see someone who has His Holy Spirit living in them and have become a new creation.  These are the fruits of the Spirit

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,  (23)  gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

The gifts of the Holy Spirit

1 Corinthians 12:3-8 For this reason I want you to be aware that no one who is speaking by God’s Spirit can say, “Jesus is cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit. (4) Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit, (5) and there are varieties of ministries, but the same Lord. (6) There are varieties of results, but it is the same God who produces all the results in everyone. (7) To each person has been given the ability to manifest the Spirit for the common good. (8) To one has been given a message of wisdom by the Spirit; to another the ability to speak with knowledge according to the same Spirit; 

1 Corinthians 12:9-11 to another faith by the same Spirit; to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit; (10) to another working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another the ability to distinguish between spirits; to another various kinds of languages; and to another the interpretation of languages. (11) But one and the same Spirit produces all these results and gives what he wants to each person. 

John 15:26 “When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf.

2 Corinthians 1:21-22 Now the one who makes us–and you as well–secure in union with the Messiah and has anointed us is God, (22) who has placed his seal on us and has given us the Spirit in our hearts as a down payment.  {Received the rest when we are changed}

Romans 8:9 You, however, are not under the control of the human nature {spirit in man} but under the control of the Spirit, since God’s Spirit lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of the Messiah, he does not belong to him.

Galatians 4:6 Now because you are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts to cry out, “Abba! Father!”

Philippians 1:19 I know that this will result in my deliverance through your prayers and the help that comes from the Spirit of Jesus the Messiah.

The Spirit is said to proceed from the Father,

John 15:26 “When the Helper comes, whom {Jesus} I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf.

Peter states that Jesus has received the Spirit from the Father and sends him.

Acts 2:33 He has been exalted to the right hand of God, has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, and has caused you to experience what you are seeing and hearing.

Peter is quoting from the prophet Joel: “I will pour out . . . of my Spirit. . . .” The Holy Spirit, like water or a fluid, can be “Poured Out.” 

Acts 2:18 In those days I will even pour out my Spirit on my slaves, men and women alike, and they will prophesy.
