In this sermon, Keith Miller walks through Revelation 3:7–13 and Jesus’ letter to the church in Philadelphia. Though this church had “little power,” Jesus gave them an open door and commended them because they kept His word and did not deny His name.

Philadelphia was a small, pressured, and unstable city, often shaken by earthquakes. Yet to this church, Jesus gives an unshakable promise: He will make His people pillars in the temple of God, write His name upon them, and keep them forever. Their strength was not in their size, influence, budget, or reputation—their strength was in Christ.

This passage reminds us to trust Jesus because He is the Holy and True One, the righteous Branch of David, the One who holds the key of David, the One who loves His people, protects them in trials, and keeps them to the end.
