OUR FIRST LOVE!

Revelation 2:4 – Devotional

Revelation 2:4

“Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love.”

The hectic turmoil of our present-day life may be likened to the flying fury of a major hurricane. There never seems to be enough hours in the day or enough days in the week to complete the many tasks we feel pressured to accomplish.

We may sometimes observe a slight increase in the interest of spiritual things. The problem is that most lose that interest all too quickly. It seems that people view spirituality as a passing fancy instead of a life-changing experience.

In the Scripture for today we discover a letter to the church at Ephesus that the Lord has revealed to the Apostle John. This was a dynamic church that was complimented for their labor, patience, abhorrence for the doers of evil deeds and false teachers. But there was something lacking — they had lost their first love.

It is possible for us to participate in activities that are spiritual in nature and have wonderful intentions, but we lack the love that first existed when we were new Christians. Now is the time for us to perform an evaluation of our walk with the Lord to determine if He would find that we still possess that first love we had for Him. I pray that we will be found worthy of His name.

Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!
