Do you want to possese them ? How important they are ?

Focusing on Revelation 3:14-17 Pastor Gavin shared on the importance of having these three items in our walk with God.

Before Pastor Gavin move into the three items, he reminded through the Word of God that God does not wants His people to be lukewarm. Being lukewarm will stop us from seeing our needs and draw us farther away from God. We have to be on fire for Him.

Pastor stressed that we had to let God manifest in our lives. We are here not only to receive but also to give.

Then Pastor Gavin moved on to elaborate the purpose of these three items in our lives:

Gold
It is valuable and it is found in rock with a lot of impurities,one ton of gold mine caould only provide 6 gram of gold after refining. The process of refining is equivalent to purifying our heart enabling us to be lovely, humble, caring,and glorifing God,as 100% gold is soft and pure, tender and transparent.

Pastor gave an example of how God removed the mindset of Moses using 40 years in the wilderness. Through the trial, Moses proved to be the most humble person on earth.

Key to being refined is humility. Humility is not self-occupied but Christ occupied. He encouraged all to be eager to be refined by God.

White garment
It represents Gods righteousness and salvation. The white garment has the power to remove the wickedness. He gave us a clean robe. We keep it clean by walking out our life in righteous acts. Pastor reminded that we should do the work of God with right attitude “Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all righteousness will be given to you.”

Ointment
It was very interesting when Pastor shared that we were not blind but we did not see. He further explained that we needed to see the way God wanted us to see. To live in His presence, follow His word, and do His work. Pastor encouraged us to be earnest in repenting and let Jesus to enter all of our “rooms” of our hearts.

It is amazing to learn that we are all poor,shameful and blind.We had to buy, from our Lord,the Gold White Garment and Ointment with our old and tattered soul.
Praise the lord for the Bible Conference! And lets keep serving Him together with a humble and joyful heart.
