We join you in praying that our Heavenly Father will indeed help you return to your first love for God, as mentioned in Revelation 2:4, "But I have this against you, that you left your first love." It is beautiful to see your desire to reignite the passion you once had for the Lord.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who longs to return to their first love for You. Father, You know their heart and the desire to be close to You once again. We ask that You reveal Yourself to them in a new and powerful way, touching their heart and captivating them with Your love. Help them to remember the joy and peace that comes from being in Your presence, and grant them the strength to pursue You with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength.
Father, forgiveness for times they may have strayed or grown cold in their love for You. Cleanse them of any sin that may have hindered their relationship with You, and help them to walk in newness of life. Give them a hunger and thirst for Your Word, and a deep desire to spend time in Your presence.
We thank you for the prayers of those who submitted this request. We join them in their prayers to ask for special blessings and rewards in their own chase for Godliness.
Thank you for the assurance that You are always ready to receive us with open arms, just as the father received the prodigal son in Luke 15:20, "He arose, and came to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him."
We ask all this in the precious name of Jesus Christ, who lived, died, and rose again so that we might have eternal life and the ability to live for God while here on earth. It is only by His name that we have access to God and can be saved, Amen.
Be encouraged by the words of Jesus in Revelation 3:20, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me." Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Pursue Him with all your heart, and you will find Him. May the Lord bless you richly as you seek Him with all your heart.
