Topic : First Love to God
Bible Verse :Revelation 2:4 ''But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first"
Message : God spoke to church of Ephesus to stay on first love. What is this first love to GOD & how it's created ? It' s created when we first understood God's love for us. In fact it's God who first loved us even when we were sinners (Romans 5:8 & 1 John :4:19). So abandoning first love means to forget God's love. So we have to increase daily in knowing God's love (Ephesians :3:18). Secondly, when we leave first love we fall away in our intimacy, lack confidence & courage (1 John :4:18). Finally when love decreases works decreases (Revelation :2:5). Christian works cannot be without love (1Corinthians:13:3).
Prayer: Dear Lord help us not to give up our first love. Continue to speak with us. In Jesus name amen
