Revelation 3:17-18

 "And behold, I am coming quickly. 
Blessed is he who heeds the words of the prophecy of this book."     
Revelation 22:7  NASB

"You say, 'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover you shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see." 

You say, 'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' 
Hosea 12:8  Ephraim boasts, "I am very rich; I have become wealthy. With all my wealth they will not find in me any iniquity or sin."
Luke 12:19-20  " 'And I'll say to myself, "You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry." ' But God said to him, 'You fool! this very night your life will be demanded of you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?' "
1 Corinthians 4:8  Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! You have begun to reign--and that without us! How I wish that you really had begun to reign so that we also might reign with you.

But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked 
Proverbs 13:7  One person pretends to be rich, yet has nothing; another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.

I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich 
1 Peter 1:6-7  In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith--of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire--may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

and white clothes to wear 
Revelation 3:4  "Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy."

so you can cover your shameful nakedness 
Revelation 16:15  "Look, I come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed."
