March 29, 2109 Mountain Of Fire Daily Devotional : TOPIC - Ignite a Fresh Love for Christ

--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

March 29, 2109 Mountain Of Fire Daily Devotional : TOPIC - Ignite a Fresh Love for Christ 

TOPIC - Ignite a Fresh Love for Christ 
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Judges 7-8; Luke 5:1-16
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Revelation 2:2-5
MEMORY VERSE: “And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” – Matthew 7:23

The MESSAGE:
First love is the devotion of Christ that so often characterizes the new believer. When you newly embrace Christ, the joy of the new relationship and your love for Christ is fervent, personal, uninhibited, excited, and openly displayed. It is like the “honeymoon love” of the husband and wife. It is usually very hot and captivating and looks like the couple would glue together in such love forever as confessed during their joining by the priest. Unfortunately, if the events during the course of the marriage proves otherwise, the couple would begin to gradually drift apart. This happens when the husband and wife begin to take each other for granted, and life becomes routine rather than exciting. This development puts the marriage in danger and their love begins to wax cold.
The above scenario is equally true of believers who are unable to nurture their relationship in Christ. The love that is nurtured deepens and grows richer beyond the honeymoon days and should never be allowed to lose the excitement and wonder of those honeymoon days. The believer has the responsibility to nurture and grow his love for Christ. This love is not simply nurtured by involvement in church activities, financial contributions and services rendered to the church, but by our motive for doing them. What we do for the Lord is important, but why we do it is more important. This was the accusation of the Lord against the Ephesian church.
It means that it is possible to serve, sacrifice, and suffer in the church and yet not really love Jesus Christ! The Ephesian believers were so busy maintaining their separation that they were neglecting adoration. Labour is no substitute for love, neither is purity a substitute for passion. The believer must have both if he is to please Christ. We should exhibit the work of faith, labour of love and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Thessalonians 1:3) to enable us take our exalted heavenly position in Christ (Revelation 2:5). It is only as we love Christ fervently that we can serve Him faithfully. Our Love for Him must be pure for our service to be accepted without reservation.
This then calls for thorough self-examination, knowing full well that the Lord is monitoring us. How fervent and sincere is the work of God you are doing? Do you still have your first love intact? If not, remember where you have fallen, repent and return to your first love. Awake to righteousness and restore the original fellowship with God. Engage in fervent prayers, Bible reading and meditation, obedience and sincere service, and true worship. The Lord is coming. May His grace uphold you to the end. Shalom!
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:LOVING LIKE JESUS MEANS YOU MUST VALUE OTHERS THE WAY JESUS VALUES YOU.
PROPHETIC WORD:May your love for God increase daily.
PRAYER POINTS:
MORNING
  1. O Lord, empower me to sustain the good things You see in my service to You, in the name of Jesus.
  2. Powers assigned to divert me from the love of Christ, you are a failure. Be paralysed and die, in the name of Jesus.
  3. I refuse to allow my love for the Lord to wax cold, in the name of Jesus.
    EVENING
  4. Spirit of hypocritical service in the house of God, depart from me by fire, in the name of Jesus.
  5. Fresh zeal for sincere service, enter me now, in the name of Jesus.
  6. Revive my spiritual life, O Lord, in the name of Jesus.
  7. I declare by the Spirit of God, nothing shall separate me from the love of Christ, in the name of Jesus.
