LOSS OF FIRST LOVE FOR GOD

God's blessings shall follow you, for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: LOSS OF FIRST LOVE FOR GOD 
TEXT: REVELATION 2: 1-7 

SUNDAY DECEMBER 3RD

Key verse: Revelation 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 
Now, to love God totally is the only acceptable way. It is the only acceptable way because He brought you for Himself, He wants you for Himself and He gave you an assignment. God will look at you and wonder, “You mean, I gave you an assignment and you say money took you away? I mean I, the God of your life, the One that breathed into your nostrils, I gave you an assignment in My church, you failed and you are giving me an excuse? You are giving me a reason.” You have no reason. God expects perfect obedience, perfect commitment, and wholesome surrender to Him and His ways. He expects complete observance of all His ways. No reason, No! Not at all. Wholesome obedience to God's word and love for Him must be kept steady in all our lives.
As you rejoiced at the time you got born again, as you yielded everything at that time and served Him wholeheartedly, so should it remain in the same spirit every day, every year of your life until He calls you from this work, from this world, for that was the life of Jesus. Can you ever tell me when Paul lost his zeal for God? Can you remember any time when Paul lost his zeal for God? Not once! That should also be our life, our pattern, our ways, and our commitment every day. 
Deuteronomy 5: 29 O that there was such a heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children forever. O that they were wise; that is God speaking. O that you were wise in heart; that you have such a heart in you. O that there was such a heart in them, O that there was such a resolution in them, that they would fear me and keep all my laws. The world is hard and full of temptations but keep all my commands, O that they would keep all my commandments always. That is the word. There would have been no failure there, but you relaxed, joined politics, and began to do other things. Even when you knew clearly this was darkness, you were still following. You have failed it. 

Thought for the day: To love God totally is the only acceptable way to serve Him.

Song for the day: O how I love Jesus (3x), because He first loved me

Bible reading for the day: Daniel 1-2; 1 John 2

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
