C&S @ 100 REFLECTION OF WHO WE ARE AS EARTHLY CHERUB

*Living as the Heavenly Ones Do* *Text: Ezekiel Chapter 10*

Today, we—*the entire body of the Cherubim and Seraphim*—gather in joyful celebration to honor the establishment of the *Cherubim arm of this sacred Order*. It is not merely a historical remembrance, but a *spiritual reminder* of who we are and who we are called to be.

The *Cherubim*, as revealed in Ezekiel Chapter 10, are not just heavenly beings; they are models of *divine order, obedience, and holy purpose*. As earthly members, we are called to mirror these godly qualities and live as *heavenly ambassadors on earth*.

Below are lessons we draw from their manifestation in Ezekiel’s vision:

*Unity and Oneness with Divine Purpose*

📖 *“When they moved, they went in any one of the four directions... without turning as they went.”* – *Ezekiel 10:11*

The Cherubim reflect the perfect harmony of the *Holy Trinity*. Their movements are synchronized, undivided, and deliberate—just like the *oneness between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit*. The wheels beside them moved in perfect alignment.

*Lesson:* We, as a body, must move in unity—no division, no self-direction, only alignment with God’s will and with one another.

*Dominion and God-given Strength*

📖 *“Each of the cherubim had four faces: one was the face of a cherub, the second the face of a human being, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.”* – *Ezekiel 10:14*

These faces are symbolic of *divine dominion and excellence*:

*Man* – Wisdom and reasoning
*Lion* – Boldness and authority
*Eagle* – Vision and spiritual elevation
*Cherub* – Holiness and loyalty to God’s throne

*Lesson:* As God’s people, we are meant to carry these strengths—*wisdom, courage, vision, and purity*—in everything we do.

*Revelation and Full Awareness*

📖 *“Their entire bodies, including their backs, their hands and their wings, were completely full of eyes.”* – *Ezekiel 10:12*

The eyes all over the Cherubim signify *heavenly perception*—nothing escapes their awareness. They are sensitive to divine signals and alert to heavenly directions.

*Lesson:* We must be spiritually sensitive, discerning in all things, and ready to receive divine insight and instruction.

*Obedience to the Spirit*

📖 *“When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them... for the spirit of the living creature was in them.”* – *Ezekiel 10:17*

This reveals a *perfect synchronization* between the Spirit, the being, and the instrument (wheel = power/movement).

The cherubim do not act on impulse but *follow the movement of the Spirit*.

*Lesson:* In our worship, service, and decisions, we must be *Spirit-led*, not self-led. Our lives, actions, and even gifts must move only at the leading of the Holy Spirit.

*The Burning Coals – A Call to Purity Through Suffering*

📖 *“Then one of the cherubim reached out his hand into the fire... and took some of it and put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen.”* – *Ezekiel 10:7*

The *burning coals* symbolize *refinement, trial, and sanctification*. Just as fire purifies gold, the saints are often refined through *suffering and sacrifice*.

Yet this fire, passed on from heaven, is not to destroy but to *empower, purify, and transform*.

*Lesson:* As heavenly soldiers, we must not resist the burning coals of discipline or trial—they are *part of our spiritual growth and calling*.

*Final Word* The Cherubim are not just symbolic beings. They are *blueprints* for heavenly character, heavenly service, and heavenly alignment.

As we celebrate this Cherubim Anniversary, let us remember: We are not ordinary men and women. We are *earthly reflections of heavenly order*. Let our lives reflect the *oneness, strength, discernment, obedience, and purity* of the Cherubim, that we may truly serve God in spirit and in truth.

WHO ARE THE CHERUBS?

before we go into details follow dis page, like, share & comment 🙏

*Cherubs* are class of powerful, high-ranking angels described in the Bible. They’re closely associated with God’s presence, holiness, and glory.

Here’s what the Bible shows about them:

1. Their Role & Location

- *Guardians of God’s presence*: After Adam and Eve were expelled from Eden, God placed cherubim at the east of the garden with a flaming sword to guard the way to the Tree of Life.
- *Throne guardians*: Cherubs are depicted as supporting and surrounding God’s throne. Ezekiel 1 and 10 describe them as living creatures under God’s throne, and Psalm 80:1 calls God “throned between the cherubim.”
- *Mercy seat*: Two golden cherubim with outstretched wings covered the mercy seat on the Ark of the Covenant in the Tabernacle. That’s where God said He would meet with Moses.

2. *Their Appearance*
Cherubs aren’t chubby baby angels like in Renaissance art. The biblical description is intense:
- *Ezekiel 1 & 10*: Four faces - human, lion, ox, and eagle. Four wings, straight legs with calf-like feet that gleamed like bronze, and wheels full of eyes.

- *Ezekiel 28:14*: Satan is described as “the anointed cherub that covereth” before his fall, implying cherubs are created beings of high rank and beauty.
- *Exodus 25:18*: Two golden cherubim with wings covering the mercy seat.

3. What Makes Them Distinct*
- *Closeness to God*: They’re shown in direct service around His throne and presence, more than messengers like Gabriel.
- *Worshippers*: They proclaim God’s holiness. Isaiah 6 describes seraphim doing this, and cherubim are similar in function.

- *Symbolism*: Their multiple faces and wings represent intelligence, strength, speed, and the ability to see in all directions - full awareness of God’s commands.

4. *Cherub vs. Cherubim*
“Cherub” is singular, “cherubim” is plural. The Bible uses cherubim 60+ times.

So in short: cherubs are holy, powerful angelic beings who guard, worship, and carry out God’s presence and commands. They’re not cupid-like babies - they’re majestic guardians.
