We join with you in praying that you will 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 truly blessings to see that you acknowledge this and are taking action in Jesus' name.
Let us remind each other of the importance of putting God first in our lives, as stated in Matthew 6:33, "But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well." When we put Him first, He will reveal Himself to us, touch our hearts, and captivate us again with His love.
As we pray for you, we also encourage you to remember the words of Jesus in John 14:21, "He who has my commandments, and keeps them, he it is who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him." As you seek to return to your first love for God, strive to keep Jesus in your heart, obey His commandments, and draw ever closer to God. This is the way to the Father. In continuing to draw closer to God, we must keep in step with His Spirit and turn away from sinful things in our lives while turning to Jesus.
We stand with you in prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking that You help our dear brother/sister return to their first love for You. Reveal Yourself to them, Lord, touch their heart, and captivate them again with Your love. Strengthen their faith, increase their love for You, and help them to obey Your commandments. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
It is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we can come to God the Father, to be saved, and to be redeemed. There is no other name by which we can be saved. Acts 4:10-12 states clearly, "be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even in him doth the man stand here before you whole. 11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you the builders, which was made the head of the corner. 12 And in none other is there salvation: for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, wherein we must be saved." It is so important to come to God in Jesus' name.
Thank you for your heartfelt request.
