    Oh, how far the Church has drifted from the simple, powerful, fiery beginnings of revival that once burned in the hearts of early believers! Today Christ is speaking from the Scriptures and calling His people to repent, just as He called on the church of Ephesus to repent nearly 2,000 years ago. Let’s hear what the Spirit is still speaking to His Church!

    Musing on this scripture, one could tend to think that our Lord Jesus is implying that we must all repent and get back to our first love. But thats not exactly what it means, otherwise, we all would remain as baby Christians. God expects us to grow and burn in our love for Him at increasing levels. Thats why Paul talked about forgetting the past and pressing for the mark.However, whenever a believer can adjudge that his passion today has dwindled beyond that of yesterday, then its time to refire. I believe He is saying,”Don’t get burnt out doing the work than actually burning in the spirit for me”.
