Revelation 2:26-28
To the one who is victorious and
does my will to the end, I
will give authority over the nations —
that one ‘will rule them with an iron scepter and
will dash them to pieces like pottery’—just
as I have received authority from my Father. I will also
give that one the morning star.
Sins that proceed out of the sinful nature of the Devil in you has no power. It may have the power to deceive but it will be defeated in the end. True authority comes from the one and only, Bright and Morning Star whom God has appointed. The one and only Bright and Morning Star is Jesus Christ our Lord. In Him is placed all the heavenly Father's authority over all things in heaven, Earth and even, all things underneath the Earth. The Bright and Morning Star of God will give all those who overcome the sinful nature of the Devil in them, His authority. The Morning star He gives will be the authority He has received from the heavenly Father. This authority is for the nations.
In Revelation chapter 2, the Lord Jesus Christ is seen as someone in authority, different from what we see in the four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. He showed the authority given to Him by the heavenly Father in the four gospels but this appearance of authority in Revelation chapter 2 is different. He appears as one who is a just God. He knows every detail that happens on Earth. Righteous authority cannot come from the sinful nature of the Devil. Righteous authority can only come from The Righteous One. God 's Righteous One is Jesus Christ our Lord, His only begotten Son. He will rule all men and women through His righteousness.

Revelation 2:18-19
"These are the words
of the Son of God, whose
eyes are like blazing fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze. I know your deeds, your
love and faith, your service and perseverance, and that you are now doing more
than you did at first".
