“And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write,
‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of
David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens.

Jesus invited the faithful in the Church of
Philadelphia to have positions of honor in His eternal government over the
earth related to their obedience in this age.

Rev. 3:7-13 is based on the prophecy that Isaiah
gave about Shebna, King Hezekiah's chief leader being removed from his
government position to be replaced by Eliakim (Isa 22:15-25). God promised to
place on Eliakim’s shoulder the “key to the house of David” so he could open
and shut the doors of the royal resources to release God’s will in the kingdom
of Israel.
