RGM DAILY DEVOTION. DESTINED TO ACHIEVE Ps.augustine babu. You want to come after Christ with a passionate pursuit, but the truth is you feel cold and indifferent. You don’t want to feel that way, but you do. That’s stagnation, and it’s an epidemic . The passion is gone. There is no pursuit. Maybe there was a time when you followed Jesus that way, but at some point you lost interest. That’s what happened to the Christians in Ephesus. In Revelation 2:4–5 Jesus says this to the Church: I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. That love refers to a loss of enthusiasm or passion for God himself. In Jeremiah 2:2, God says ‘Go and proclaim in the hearing of Jerusalem: ‘This is what the L ord says: ‘ “I remember the devotion of your youth, how as a bride you loved me and followed me through the wilderness, through a land not sown. Jeremiah 2:2 NIVUK So what do you do if you find yourself in a place of stagnation, where you want to passionately pursue Jesus but your heart’s not in it? Notice what Jesus tells the Church in Ephesus. He says to repent and do the things you did at first. That’s a great place to start in your relationship with Christ. Confess the shortcoming of stagnation in your life and then start doing the things you did at first. Get on your knees next to your bed and talk to God about your day. Turn on some worship music and sing along. Grab a one-year Bible and start reading and meditating on God’s Word. Even if you don’t initially feel like doing some of those things it will begin to stir the fire that has grown dim. My whole being follows hard after You and clings closely to You; Your right hand upholds me. Psalm 63:8 AMP
