TEXT: Rev. 3:14-22 

MESSAGE
Probably we are in the last age of the seven ages as it is observed in this chapter. As it was with the church at Laodicea, so churches are numerous today. There is no gainsaying the fact that churches organisations are counted amongst the wealthiest organisations as the soul winning has become very enterprising and competitive. The fact that churches are very rich in financial and material resources has spiritually impoverished and enslave them through the vanities of the world. They have neglected the truth, the WORD and rejected the working and anointing of the Holy Spirit and so they are highly infested by all the spiritual pitfalls characterized by the church in Laodicea.



The Holy Spirit which was the center and played the vital role in the central stage over time has been locked outside, leaving the church in gross spiritual darkness as the glory of the lord seems to depart. Even the church leaders and ministers of the gospel as their churches grow in numerical and financial strength have open wide the doors of deceit, hypocrisy, adultery, ritualistic services etc bringing the church to both moral and spiritual bankruptcy. Church today is degenerating into a mere religious echo and no longer the irresistible voice ladened with divine authority and power of God. Verse 17 of our text says,
"Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:"
Brethren, this is the worst of all the seven churches in Asia opposite even to the church at Philadelphia. Beloved, let us Clear our opinions and conscience, and endeavour to be really what God wants us to be. Absorb the good counsel of Christ and do not cast them behind. God bless you and good day.

PRAYER POINTS:
START WITH PRAISE & WORSHIP..
1. Appreciate God for His word of wisdom.
2. Use the blood of Jesus to intercede for your Sin of deceit and hypocrisy.
3. Pray that God should make you remain steadfast and not to veer off from Him. 
4. Ask God to help you overcome pride and the pursuit of vanities.

Heart Not Garment - 2

By Date -
"Rend your heart, and not your garments." --Joel 2:13 Apart from vital godliness all religion is utterly vain; offered without a sincere heart, every form of worship is a solemn sham and an impudent mockery of the majesty of heaven. HEART-RENDING is divinely wrought and solemnly felt. It is a secret grief which is personally experienced, not in mere form, but as a deep, soul-moving work of the Holy Spirit upon the inmost heart of each believer. It is not a matter to be merely talked of and believed in, but keenly and sensitively felt in every living child of the living God. It is powerfully humiliating, and completely sin-purging; but then it is sweetly preparative for those gracious consolations which proud un-humbled spirits are unable to receive; and it is distinctly discriminating, for it belongs to the elect of God, and to them alone.

THE CHOSEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: Sunday 7th, June 2020. TOPIC: The True Picture Of The Church Today II TEXT: Rev. 3:15  MESSAGE "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot".Vs 15, so then because thou art lukewarm, neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth. Lukewarmness and indifference in religion is the worst tempter in the world. The husband of a lukewarm wife is always confused as he would not know when and how to please the wife. So are members of the church whose heart cannot be determined. They are between two opinions. We also have these in the church because they are high minded and proud, they have unknowingly overlooked the necessity of their souls as they gorgeously dressed up in Costly apparel at the expense and decay of their souls, making them to be wretched poor and miserable.  Also there is the state of blindness which the devil is using against the church today which has made them very weak and defensele...
