He Who Has An Ear (Pt 2)

“He who has an ear, let him hear
what the Spirit says to the churches.”
Revelations 2:29
Today we are looking at what Christ said to the Laodicean Church! Read Revelations 3:14-21. This is the 7th church, that Christ said the same words to “Hear”. Today we are living in the historical age of this church, a lukewarm nauseating, proud and self-satisfying and ignorant of their true state.
Rev 3:17 “Because you say, “I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked”
1. Wretched = Being worn out, hard labors as in a quarry slave
2. Miserable = To be pitied by all men
3. Poor = having no Spiritual riches, no holiness of heart
4. Blind = No understanding and cannot see their state
5. Naked = Not clothed with Holiness and purity
A picture of many churches and people today!!
Rev 3:18 Jesus come with the answer = “I counsel you”
Saying your case is not hopeless, I can help you out of your condition!!
1. To buy gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich.
ISA 55:1 “Come buy and eat: No price (Faith that shall stand in every trial). Gold = more valuable to the soul than the purest gold to the body “Rich in Him”
2. White Garments = so not naked, holiness of heart and life
3. Anoint your eyes with eye salve that you may see.
Laodicea was known for a place where you could by eye salve and would cure a lot of eye problems.
Greek word to anoint = means Rub IN
Jesus was saying to rub something into your eye.
Greek word Eye Salve = means Bread, it came in lumps like small loaves of bread!
“I am the bread of life” John 6:48 (The Word of God)
Jesus is telling them to rub in bread to anoint eyes with eye salve.
So rubbing the scriptures into our eyes, which means filling our minds with the Word, that will heal your spiritual blindness (His counsel).
Read it, study it, memorise it, meditate on it, apply it to your life daily by reading the Bible the bread of life, going into our minds through the eyes:
“Anointed Eye Salve, then the last thing to do is” Believe IT!!
Have a blessed week!
Love you all heaps.
Ps Stuart and Colleen
