Rev 2:7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
This phrase is repeated
throughout this second chapter of Revelation.
It sounds silly, doesn’t
it? We all have ears, so why does he say
“he who has an ear, let him hear?”
We all know our kids have ears,
and we know they can very well hear us when we’re talking to them. But kids become masters at “tuning us out”
when they don’t want to obey. They hum,
they play, they make noise, or they even cover their ears when we start
instructing them and they don’t want to be bothered.
John has important words to say
in this chapter, and he’s calling those who are listening to uncover their
ears, open their hearts, tune in, and listen up.
Why?
Because the Spirit has something
to say.
Do you have an ear?
Hear.
