"FIRST LOVE"
I KNOW YOUR DEEDS,
YOUR HARD WORK AND YOUR PERSEVERANCE.
I KNOW THAT YOU CANNOT TOLERATE WICKED MEN,
THAT YOU HAVE TESTED THOSE WHO CLAIM TO BE
BELIEVERS, BUT ARE NOT, AND FOUND THEM TO BE
FALSE.
YOU HAVE PERSEVERED AND ENDURED HARDSHIPS FOR
MY NAME, AND HAVE NOT GROWN WEARY.
YET. I HAVE THIS AGAINST YOU,
YOU HAVE FORSAKEN YOUR FIRST
LOVE.
HE WHO HAS AN EAR, LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE
SPIRIT, SAYS;
TO THE CHURCHES.
TO HIM WHO OVERCOMES. I WILL GIVE THE RIGHT TO EAT OF
THE TREE OF LIFE,
WHICH IS IN THE PARADISE OF GOD.
REV 2:2-7
DEAR BELIEVERS; WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE WILL YOUR HEART BE ALSO. JESUS DESIRES YOUR HEART, YOUR FIRST LOVE. THEN ALL THESE THINGS WILL WORK TOGETHER FOR YOUR GOOD, BECAUSE YOU LOVE GOD, AND ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSES.
LOVE HIM TODAY, IN A WAY YOU HAVE NEVER DONE BEFORE....

"SEVEN GOLDEN LAMPSTANDS"
I TURNED AROUND TO SEE THE VOICE THAT
WAS SPEAKING TO ME.
AND WHEN I TURNED I SAW
SEVEN GOLDEN LAMPSTANDS,
AND AMONG THE LAMPSTANDS WAS SOMEONE
LIKE THE SON OF MAN,
DRESSED IN A ROBE REACHING DOWN TO HIS FEET,
AND WITH A GOLDEN SASH AROUND HIS CHEST.
HIS HEAD AND HAIR WERE WHITE LIKE LIKE WOOL,
AS WHITE AS SNOW, AND HIS EYES WERE LIKE BLAZING
FIRE.
HIS FEET WERE LIKE BRONZE OF GLOWING IN A FURNACE,
AND HIS VOICE WAS LIKE THE THE SOUND OF RUSHING
WATERS.
IN HIS RIGHT HAND HE HELD SEVEN STARS AND OUT OF HIS MOUTH
A SHARP DOUBLE EDGED SWORD, HIS FACE WAS LIKE THE SUN IN SHINING
IN ALL ITS BRILLIANCE.
WHEN I SAW HIM, I FELL AT HIS FEET AS THOUGH DEAD, THEN HE PLACED
HIS RIGHT HAND ON ME AND SAID;
DO NOT BE AFRAID. I AM THE FIRST AND THE LAST.
I AM THE LIVING ONE; I WAS DEAD,
BEHOLD I AM ALIVE FOR EVER AND EVER!
AND I HOLD THE KEYS OF DEATH AND HADES.
REV 1:12-17
DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; WHO DO YOU SEE WHEN YOU CLOSE THE DOOR TO YOUR PRAYER ROOM, WHO TOUCHES YOU WHEN YOU BOW DOWN? OH, MY BROTHERS IF IT IS NOT THE ONE WHO STANDS IN THE MIDST OF THE LAMPSTANDS, THEN YOUR FEARS WILL OVER TAKE YOU, YOUR DOUBTS AND SINS, WILL CAUSE YOU TO LIVE IN THE VALLEY OF NO REST, NO PEACE.
THIS GLORIOUS ONE, DESCRIBED BY JOHN IS THE ONE WAITING FOR YOU TO TRUST HIM, AND WITH HIM, NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE.
HE SAID TO JOHN, AND HE SAYS TO YOU; DO NOT BE AFRAID....AMEN

"WATCH OUT!"
AND THIS IS LOVE;
THAT WE WALK IN OBEDIENCE
TO HIS COMMANDS. AS YOU HEARD FROM
THE BEGINNING,
HIS COMMAND IS THAT YOU WALK IN LOVE.
WATCH OUT THAT YOU DO NOT LOSE WHAT
YOU HAVE WORKED FOR,
BUT THAT YOU MAY BE REWARDED FULLY.
ANYONE WHO RUNS AHEAD AND DOES NOT
CONTINUE IN THE TEACHING OF CHRIST,
DOES NOT HAVE GOD;
WHOEVER CONTINUES IN THE TEACHING
HAS BOTH THE FATHER AND THE SON.
2 JOHN
DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; IF MY SOUL SERVES ME WELL THIS MORNING, AND TROUGHOUT THIS WEEK OF CHALLENGING VERSES. IT WOULD BE I HOPE, THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS ME WEEPING BEFORE THE PRESENCE OF HIM WE BOTH LOVE. IN THOSE TIMES, I SENSE HOW SO MANY OF MY BROTHERS ARE FINDING NO TIME FOR THEIR LOVER.
IS THAT YOU ?

"DEEPER WATERS"
IN THE ARK OF SALVATION WE FIND A LOWER'
SECOND, AND THIRD STORY.
MOST CHRISTIANS, AS TO THE RIVER OF EXPERIENCE,
ARE ONLY UP TO THE ANKLES;
SOME OTHERS HAVE WADED TILL THE STREAM
IS UP TO THE KNEES;
A FEW FIND IT BREAST-HIGH;
AND A FEW---OH! HOW FEW!
FIND IT A RIVER TO SWIM IN,
THE BOTTOM OF WHICH THEY
CANNOT TOUCH.
SPURGEON
DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; GOD HIMSELF IS LOOKING FOR THOSE WHO WOULD SWIM IN THE DEEPER WATERS WITH HIM. HOW ABOUT YOU ?

"LOVE IN ACTION"
THIS IS HOW WE KNOW WHAT LOVE IS;
JESUS CHRIST LAID DOWN HIS LIFE FOR US.
AND WE OUGHT TO LAY DOWN OUR LIVES
FOR OUR BROTHERS.
IF ANYONE HAS MATERIAL POSSESSIONS
AND SEES HIS BROTHER IN NEED BUT HAS
NO PITY ON HIM,
HOW CAN THE LOVE OF GOD BE IN HIM?
DEAR CHILDREN, LET US NOT LOVE
WITH WORDS OR TONGUE BUT WITH ACTIONS
AND IN TRUTH.
1 JOHN 3:16-18

"THE ONE WHO IS IN YOU."
DEAR CHILDREN; YOU ARE FROM GOD AND HAVE OVERCOME
THEM,(SPIRITS THAT DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE HIM),
BECAUSE THE ONE WHO IS IN YOU
IS GREATER THAN THE ONE WHO IS IN
THE WORLD!
THEY ARE FROM THE WORLD AND THEREFORE SPEAK
FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF THE WORLD,
AND THE WORLD LISTEN TO THEM.
WE ARE FROM GOD, AND WHOEVER KNOWS GOD,
LISTENS TO US.
BUT WHOEVER NOT FROM GOD,
DOES NOT LISTEN TO US.
THIS IS HOW WE RECOGNIZE THE SPIRIT OF
TRUTH
AND THE SPIRIT OF FALSEHOOD,(LIES).
AMEN: MEDIATATE ON THIS.

"BORN OF GOD!"
NO ONE WHO LIVES IN HIM KEEPS
SINNING.
NO ONE WHO CONTINUES TO SIN
HAS EITHER SEEN HIM OR
KNOWN HIM.
DEAR CHILDREN, DO NOT LET ANYONE LEAD YOU ASTRAY.
HE WHO DOES WHAT IS SINFUL
IS OF THE DEVIL,
BECAUSE THE DEVIL HAS BEEN SINNING
FROM THE BEGINNING.
THE REASON THE SON OF GOD CAME,
WAS TO DESTROY THE DEVIL'S WORK.
NO ONE BORN OF GOD WILL CONTINUE TO SIN,
BECAUSE GOD'S SEED REMAINS IN HIM;
HE CAN NOT GO ON SINNING, BECAUSE HE
HAS BEEN BORN OF GOD.
DEAR CHILD OF GOD; YOU ARE BORN OF GOD? WHY BE LEAD ASTRAY INTO THE ARMS OF ANOTHER LOVER? YOUR TRUE LOVER HAS DESTOYED THE WORKS OF YOUR ENEMY,THE DEVIL. HE CALLS YOU TO RUN TO JESUS, INTO THE ARMS OF ONE WHO WILL NEVER LET YOU GO. DO YOU SEE HIM ? DO YOU KNOW ? IF YOUR ANSWER IS YES. THEN KNOW HIS SEED IS IN YOU, MEANING THE POWER TO ESCAPE THE DEVIL'S HOLD ON YOU, IS ALREADY WITHIN YOU!
GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN YOU(JESUS), THEN HE,(THE DEVIL) THAT IS IN THIS WORLD.
1 JOHN 3:6-9
NO ONE WHO LIVES IN HIM KEEPS
SINNING.
NO ONE WHO CONTINUES TO SIN
