Praise: Inner my heart
Let us thank God for this new day. Let us invite the Holy Spirit in our midst.
Revelations 2:1-7
Why is the heart the symbol of love and the symbol of life?
Because it's the only organ whose once stopped working, we are declared dead.
Main role of heart: pumps blood and oxygen around the body and delivers waste to the kidney.
Heart is THE Center of WORSHIP, is THE Contact point with God. Matthew 5:8; Matthew 22:37
Forsaking the first love is forgetting the essence of our life. John 1:3; John 15:5
- There is no natural love without sacrifice.
- There is no spiritual love without sacrifice.
- There is no Love at all without Sacrifice. True, Pure and Holy love Must cost us something.
- Jesus showed the way to Love: he gave himself up, he forgot about himself.
- Jesus lived for God, by God and in God.
As per Jesus' instruction, as disciples of the Messiah, we MUST live FOR him, BY him and IN him in order to experience his Victory. John 16:33
Genuine and Selfless Love covers a multitude of sins. 1 Peter 4:8
Prayer Points:
1- Let us spend some time praying for Bro Ben and his wife, that Jesus heal and perfect their desires with him and between them.
Let us pray for the miraculous intervention of God in their lives and desires.
2- Let us pray that each time God invites himself in our life, he might find us not at sleep but doing his work.
Revelations 1-3
3- Let us pray that the love we had for Jesus when we were born again, will never dry no matter the responsibilities, successes or hardships of life.
Revelations 4-5
4- Let us ask Jesus to always be our First adviser and counsellor in any situation we face.
Revelations 2:7.
