Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Exodus 25:39
25:39 "It shall be made of a talentof pure gold, with all these utensils. 

The lamp or the golden candlestick shall be made of a talent of pure gold. It is approximately thirty four kilos.

The spiritual meanings of a talentare as follows:

  1. The treasure of heaven or the one of thechurch of God.
    1 Corinthians 12:4-6
    12:4 There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
    12:5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.
    12:6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. 


    The treasure of heaven refers to thenine giftsof Holy Spirit, nine ministriesfrom the Son of God, nine deedsof love of Father God, and nine fruitsof Holy Spirit.
    Thus, four times nine equals to thirty six.

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


    If we have the treasure of heaven or four times nine, we will be employed in the building of the body of Christ or the revival of the Holy Spirit at the last rain. It starts from marriage, shepherding, inter-shepherding, up to the perfect body of Christ or the unity of Israel and the Gentiles in one body of Christ.

    Joshua 7: 5
    7:5 And the men of Ai struck down about thirty-six men, for they chased them from before the gate as far as Shebarim, and struck them down on the descent; therefore the hearts of the people melted and became like water. 

    In the war against Ai, a small town, the Israelites were defeated. Thirty six men were struck down. 

    Ai means wreckage.
    Let us be watchful, the spirit of wreckage strikes down the servants of God. It is able to destroy the treasure of the church of God

    The types of the spirit of wreckage are as follows:

    • The love of money.
      It means the will of money that is signified by stinginess and greediness.
      Being stingy means that one cannot give.
      Being greedy means that one steals others' and God's. It starts from the tithe and a special offering.

    • The sin of Babylon.
      Deuteronomy 3:11
      3:11 "For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the giants. Indeed his bedstead was an iron bedstead. (Is it not in Rabbah of the people of Ammon?) Nine cubits is its length and four cubits its width, according to the standard cubit. 

      The iron bedstead refers to the violence in marriage, namely a husband does not love his wife, but says or does bitterly toward her, a wife does not obey her husband, and the children do not obey their parents. Moreover, there are envy, hatred, revenge, and bitterness in marriage.

      The sin of Babylon also refers to the sin of eating-drinking (smoking, getting drunk, and drugs abuse) and marrying-being given in marriage (fornication between man and woman who are not in a legal marriage, lesbianism, homosexuality, mixed marriage, and divorce-remarrying).

  2. Revealing the glory of heaven.
    It displays its beautiful shape in the bowls, knobs, and flowers.

    The flower means as follows:

    • Beauty. Holy Spirit makes our life beautiful.
    • Hope for bearing fruit until the biggest hope is becoming the bride of heaven.
      Holy Spirit makes us strong and of good courage, namely not being disappointed, desperate, and proud easily, and not leaving God, but we always give thanks to God. We have a hope to become the perfect bride of heaven.

  3. A talent means unity.
    Holy Spirit who is one with the seven manifestations fills and leads the church of God to become one perfect body of Christ.

    Ephesians 4:3-6

    4:3 endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
    4:4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling;
    4:5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
    4:6 one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 


    The requirements of the unity of the perfect body of Christ are as follows:

    • One body means one Head, namely Jesus or the true teaching Word.
      John 1:1,14
      1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
      1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.


    • One Spirit.
    • One hope. The highest hope of the servants of God is becoming the bride of heaven.
    • One God.
    • One faith.
    • One baptism.
    • One Father God.

    There are seven unities. The church of God can be different in wealth, ministry, gifts, but the seven unities must be same to reach a talent, namely one unity of the perfect body of Christ.

    Let us be watchful, the different teaching results in the different spirit.

    The church of God who has the seven unities will enter the unity of the body and theHead, namely placing Jesus as the Head through the neck or the worship prayer.

    Worshiping Jesus as the Head means as follows:

    • Worshiping Jesus as the King of kings. The character of king is being victorious.
      Psalm 20:9
      20:9 Save, LORD! May the King answer us when we call.

      Thus, worshiping Jesus as the King refers to the victory over sins up to the peak, so we can live in righteousness and holiness in our whole life, including in our mind, saying, deed, as well as we win over all problems.

    • Worshiping Jesus as the High Priest. It means becoming the servant of God who ministers to Him in faithfulness and righteousness.
    • Worshiping Jesus as the Bridegroom of heaven who cleanses us with water baptism and the water of the teaching Word.
      It refers to being purified or washed willingly by water baptism and the water of the Word, so we are renewed to become a newborn baby who always cries out and surrenders to God. 

      Ephesians 5:25,27
      5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,
      5:27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. 


      Becoming a crying baby means that we honestly show our weakness and condition just the way we are.

      Isaiah 46:3-4
      46:3 "Listen to Me, O house of Jacob, And all the remnant of the house of Israel, Who have been upheld by Me from birth, Who have been carried from the womb:
      46:4 Even to your old age, I am He, And even to gray hairs I will carry you! I have made, and I will bear; Even I will carry, and will deliver you. 


      The result is being carried by God. It means that He is responsible for our life. He cares us in the midst of difficulties and disasters in the world. He gives health and long life. He decides everything. He carries all our burdens and tears, so everything becomes easy, light, and peaceful. God saves, purifies, and changes us until we do not stumble in words. We are worthy to greet His second coming on the glorious clouds. We will be together forever with him.

God blesses us.
