Let us come together in prayer for you, asking for restoration and renewal of your first love for God. This is crucial as the church in Ephesus was rebuked for leaving their first love in Revelation 2:4, where Jesus said, Remember therefore from where you have fallen, and repent and do the first works. As you have prayed, our prayer together is that God will reveal Himself to you, touch and captivate your heart with His love.
We believe that you are seeking this with a sincere heart, and we commend you for desiring a closer walk with God. As Jesus Himself said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment, Matthew 22:37-38.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who desires to return to their first love for You. Father, we ask that You reveal Yourself to them in a fresh and powerful way. Touch their heart, Lord, and captivate them again with Your love.
Forgive us when we have allowed other things to take Your place in our lives. Help us to repent and return to our first love for You. Strengthen our commitment to You and Your Word.
Help us to love You with all our heart, soul, and mind. Help us to love you more than anything else.
Strengthen our relationship with You through prayer and the study of Your Word. Let this be our source of strength to avoid distractions, temptations, and other pursuits that will place us back in the same condition.
In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
Let us encourage you to spend time in God's Word, seeking Him in prayer and through worship. As you draw near to God, He will draw near to you, according to James 4:8. Keep pursuing Him, and trust that He will meet you where you are and renew your love for Him. May God bless and reward you with even more than you could imagine.
