TOPIC: Misplaced And Mismatched Values (DCLM Daily Manna 30 October 2025)
KEY VERSE: “I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see” (Revelation 3:18)
TEXT: Revelation 3:14-22 (KJV)
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 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:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
The story is told of an old man who was asked to declare his wealth. Instead of listing material possessions, he declared his riches as a mansion in heaven, everlasting life, peace that surpasses understanding, unspeakable joy, divine love that never fails, a crown of life, a faithful wife, health, happy and obedient children, loyal friends, and songs in the heart. It was stunning and sobering for all that heard him. What more can anyone describe as true riches if not these imperishable and enduring bestowals that can only come from the ultimate Giver of life?
The Laodicean believers faced rebuke because they had misplaced their priorities and mismatched their values. They were, therefore, exposed by God, who tore off the rags of their deluded mindset about what true riches mean. Their emphasis on material possessions that have no eternal value only reveal the focus of many in our modern society. Sadly, many so-called Christians fail to heed the counsel of Scriptures that warn and exhort believers to lay less emphasis on the things of this world that can overcharge the heart, dull the mind, and blindside us from having a clear vision of pursuing heaven’s goal and treasures.
Thankfully, the all-knowing God has offered the materially rich but spiritually destitute people a timeless counsel: to “buy” (believe and act on) the priceless word of God that builds faith, as well as repent and put on the “white raiment” of righteousness. That spiritual garment is obtainable only through Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the world. It is heaven’s treasure of inestimable value through which all who promptly and implicitly obey God will truly reap and enjoy earthly possessions and heavenly riches.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
The actual value of your life is measured by the value you place on spiritual riches.
