Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year Oneഉദാഹരണം

Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me (Revelation 3:20).

Have you invited Jesus to fellowship with you?

In approximately AD 60 the inhabitants of Laodicea experienced a severe earthquake. When the government offered to rebuild their city, the affluent citizens declined their assistance. Unfortunately, the saints in the city adopt a similar self-sufficient mindset and need Jesus' correction. The believers become like the hot water piped in from Hierapolis that turns lukewarm when it reaches its destination. As a result, the Lord threatens to "vomit you out of My mouth" (Revelation 3:16). These lukewarm saints are financially rich but spiritually bankrupt. Jesus’ assessment is "you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked" (Revelation 3:17). Since Jesus loves them, He rebukes them and calls them to repentance and a restoration of fellowship.

Employment Point: Repent of self-sufficiency and enjoy fellowship with Jesus.
