NEVER LET GO YOUR FIRST LOVE.


Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love
Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent and do the first work; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of its place, except thou repent.
Revelation 2:4-5.

Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savor.
(Ephesians 5:1-2).

This is an admonishment for all of us to ‘walk in love’ as ‘Christ hath loved us’. Even as God orders our ways, we wish to say that our zeal for God is dwindling. I stand to be corrected but that passion ‘to always assemble’ and fellowship with God is quenching out. What might be the cause? Are we not doing something right as a family? Is there disorderliness in the house or have we forgotten all about what used to be our pride and joy.
We should never lose sight of the fact that we are in WORLD and so our lives should not be that of the world. Every new level comes with a new devil and the higher the level, the stronger the devil. We shouldn’t think we are too much into God to be swayed away. It is an undeniable fact that we all worship GOD in our closets, but there is a necessity to assemble and be with our MAKER. Individually, we know praying, worshiping, reading of the Word needs a lot of discipline to adhere to. That is why we are encouraged to fellowship together so that each one can be kept in check.

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that run down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard; that went down to the skirts of his garment; (Psalm 133:1-2).

It is never too late. The Lord longs to fellowship with us. No matter how far we might have gone, or how close we might think we are, there is still room for improvement. Let’s make a rapid U-TURN, let’s PUT ASIDE our DIFFERENCES and make room out of our BUSY SCHEDULES so that we can make time for HIM NOW and not postpone till it is too late to do so.

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. (John 9:4).

Our prayer for you is that, you may grow more and more like Christ. We are backing you up in prayers. You mean the world to God and us.
HE LOVES YOU AND HE IS ACHING FOR A DEEPER RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU.
