"How can we expect non-Christians to awake if we ourselves are not awakened? How can 'fire' arise if we ourselves do not 'burn'? How shall life be begotten if we ourselves are not truly filled with 'life'?" Erich Sauer
Do you?
Do you love The Lord with everything you have in you?
Is He your first love?
What do you have above Him? Your children? Your spouse? Your career? Your hobby? Your church? Your gift?
What is your passion?
If HE is not your passion then He is an idol! If you love anything more than Him; if He is not first place in your heart, your mind and your soul, then He is an idol!
“Their land is also full of idols; They worship the work of their own hands, That which their own fingers have made.” Isaiah 2:8 NKJV
If He does not consume your every waking thought, and even inhabit your dreams, then He is an idol!
Do you remember the first time you fell in love? He/she occupied your every thought! Everything you did; you did for her/him!
Should not our love for God be even greater?
"Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love. "(Revelation 2:4 NKJV)
God knows, (just like a wife or husband whose spouse no longer loves them), where your heart is! You can lie to yourself and say, "God knows my heart!", and think you are okay, but I have news for you - okay - doesn't get it, with God!!!
““The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?”
Jeremiah 17:9 NKJV
"“I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth." (Revelation 3:15, 16 NKJV)
Is that you??
Repent of your sin!
Pray that God burns in your heart again, before it is too late!
“And they said to one another, “Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?”” Luke 24:32 NKJV
Read your Bible. Let it bring you Life!
Even so - MARANATHA!
