For you claim, “I’m rich and getting richer – I don’t need a thing.” Yet you are clueless that you’re miserable, poor, blind, barren, and naked. (TPT) Revelation 3:17

It is the ordinary thing in our day to survey a congregation by its numerical quality, building limit, measure of cash in bank, and other physical things that interest to the eyes. The a greater amount of these, the more effective a congregation is; or so we think. Laodicea unquestionably fits into this model of achievement. It was one of seven chapels that God put on a prophetic scale. Before this, the congregation had utilized an alternate arrangement of parameters to evaluate itself. Inferring that there was nothing else to enhance, the congregation gave itself "A" rating and completed a thumb up. In any case, God saw them from an alternate view focal point. In opposition to what the congregation trusted, God's accommodation was that they were hopeless, poor, visually impaired, desolate, and stripped!

This conveys us to another region where achievement can be enticing. Achievement has a method for giving us unreasonable or embittered vision. We can undoubtedly lose our feeling of appreciation, taking the zones of achievement to be a photo of the entirety. The physical bequest of the Laodicea church blindfolded them to the degree that they couldn't see their wretchedness in different regions. When we hit accomplishment in any everyday issue, our modest demand to God must be, "What do regardless I need?"

Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.” Luke 10:20

Seventy devotees of Jesus were charged in Luke 10 to have a preliminary keep running of the evangelistic effortlessness. They were not just charged to lecture the approach of God's Kingdom, yet to similarly mend the wiped out. They returned after that and they appeared to have beated their own desire as should be obvious in verse 17 – "Then the seventy came back with happiness, saying, "Ruler, even the evil spirits are liable to us in Your name." Well, perusing into the fine print of their bonus, we didn't discover anyplace they were advised to cast out devils. The triumph over devils isn't hard to clarify. Now and again ailment have devilish roots. So the summon to mend infection is as of now a freedom to manage its evil source. On another note, the power offered them to mend the wiped out is the preeminent intensity of God; it can take care of each other issue along its way.

Clearly, the pupils were energized for the outcomes that they acquired in the field. Inquisitively, Jesus instantly ventured in to re-orientate their psyches. Their satisfaction was not to come from the outcomes they got, but rather from the way that their names were composed in the Lamb's book of life. As we watched yesterday, concentrating on physical outcomes alone like the Laodicean church canned influence us to overlook the main issue. To pick up the entire world and lose one's spirit is no accomplishment by any means.
