TODAY’S TURNING POINT WITH DR. DAVID JEREMIAH DAILY DEVOTIONAL 10TH APRIL 2025 MESSAGE
Read David Jeremiah Daily Devotional April 10, 2025, Thursday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: Remind and Return
Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love. Revelation 2:4
RECOMMENDED READING
Hebrews 10:23-25, 35-38
Reminders are a part of daily life. We enter reminders into our phone or computer calendar, we stick notes on the refrigerator or the bathroom mirror and ask others, “Please remind me to…” Re means “again,” so remind means “to call to mind again.”
Just as we are in danger of forgetting practical things in our life, so we are likely, if we are not careful, to forget our spiritual commitments. Christ admonished the church at Ephesus about that very thing- letting their love for Christ fade over time. They had forgotten the love they had for Christ when they first came to Him in faith. He exhorted them to “repent and do the first works” (Revelation 2:5)-the good works, motivated by love for Him, that characterized the early days of their faith. They needed to remind themselves of their love for Christ and return to it.
The same thing can happen to us if we are not careful. We can grow complacent, and our faith can grow cold. We must encourage ourselves and others to continue in the faith until Christ returns (Hebrews 10:23-25). Begin today by meditating on God’s love for you.
TURNING POINT
It is possible to be so active in the service of Christ as to forget to love Him.
