Hi Rebekah, I find several references to Lucifer being the covering Cherub but not of the Mercy seat or Beama, Could You let me know where this reference is from please?
My research has led me to understand that linked to his description of the light bearer ( not light in himself) as covering cherub he most likely reflected the True Light / Glory of God. Many descriptions of the throne Of God are as having the appearance of a rainbow behind it. Considering the beauty and colours described by God as to How Lucifer was formed one could expect such a covering to reflect a rainbow effect. Possibly, now a new, more beautiful and faithful cherub would most likely been formed to continue the function. But through Lucifers great vanity he no longer qualifies. I don't believe it was covering in the sense of protection as much as it was covering in the sense of magnifying the presence or the Beauty of the Glory. I hope this is of Help to your understanding.
God bless you and prosper your understanding.
Prior to the rebellion and downfall of Lucifer, scripture teaches us that Lucifer held a high ranking position in GOD'S heavenly government as the cherubim who covereth the mercy seat.
My question is this: Why did the mercy seat and/or GOD'S throne need covering? What or who did it need protection from since it was in heaven? Thank you in advance for your response. Have a blessed day...
A delivery truck driver driving a fully loaded bobtail on I-80 back east in the early morning hours while driving freeway speed was having thoughts on searching out the Kingdom of God. The driver was wondering if some could truly search out the length, breadth, height and depth of the Kingdom.
The driver still also conscious of work, driving towards the first delivery on freeway hills had the thought to set out on foot to explore the Kingdom in search of the bosom of God.
A vision came upon the driver and now the driver was walking in the Kingdom, in a mist, or perhaps it was a cloud, it was white, as the driver walked in search of the Bosom of God. Almost immediately the driver was beside a grazing lamb. No more than three feet apart and the driver stood nearly three feet higher. The Lamb lifted his head and looked upon the driver and the driver beheld him.
The driver awoke again in the truck still moving down the freeway and was weeping bitterly, in awe. A voice called the driver back to into the the Kingdom, in the mist. The voice with authority spoke; "Is this that which you were looking for?"
The driver looked down again at the Lamb of God, at his eyes, at his peace and at his aloneness and all human comprehension vanished from the driver's mind. The creature below bore all life and the driver saw salvation complete in all fullness. The driver answered the voice,"Yes Lord". The driver began weeping more and more becoming conscious again driving the truck.
All the way to the driver's first delivery the thought of standing above the Lamb would come to mind and weeping would return. The driver carried a heavenly glow for several deliveries until the world and it's day started to steal the vision away.
The driver reported this vision by a kept note as to have happened on March 25, 1994.

If we are born again, God took our sins
and nailed them to the cross..
Born again believers will get rewarded
from God for the good duties we did on earth.
Violent protests are nothing more than Satan's doing!
So is government's restriction of religious freedom or enforcement of religious customs.
So is society's attempts - especially online - to 'push' certain views upon others thru intimidation, sharp criticism, etc.
We will all be held accountable on the judgement day for our works/actions. Let us keep it that way - I do not want to judge anyone else nor do I want anyone else to judge me. Said another way, I struggle keeping myself from straying without trying to push my views on others.
