IS CHRIST KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR?
Jesus instructed the apostle John to send a letter to the church of Laodicea, rebuking them for their lukewarm commitment. He reminded them that He disciplines those that He loves and called them to repentance and renewed zeal. Yet after His stern words of discipline, He humbly described Himself as a friend knocking at their door, seeking renewed fellowship with them.
Have you become lukewarm in your commitment to Him? Have you lost your passion and zeal for the Lord? Have apathy and complacency become the constant and flattened state of spiritual condition?
Listen closely, and you’ll hear Christ knocking. He desires to have fellowship with you. Do you hear Him calling? Intimate fellowship with Christ Jesus is the secret to living with passion and power. Yet He will not force Himself in. You must open the door.
PRAYER: Dear Father, forgive us for our apathy and lack of zeal for You. We are weak and often overcome by discouragement. We depend on worldly comfort and riches to strengthen us, but they always fall short. We open the door to Jesus afresh today. Come in Lord Jesus and set our souls aflame. In Jesus’ name, amen.
