When a
Christian begins to shun fellowship with other Christians, not reading the
Bible or praying, it gives the devil cause to rejoice.

Today's message is calling every Christian back to the place of
fellowship and spiritual renewal. It is believed that as we look inwards
personally, each of us shall be able to address the issue of getting renewed
through fellowshipping with other Christians as the Bible counsels us in
Hebrews 10:25.
Are you born again, but you suddenly discovered that you are
drifting back for a reason, or your love for Christ is waxing cold? Perhaps,
you don't even see it. You can't feel the zeal with which you started. I
beseech you not to despair, but make instant efforts to get to the place of renewal,
re. enacting your live and commitment to Jesus Christ. He knows our feeble
frame. He is aware of that weakness, lukewarmness, failure and seeming
disloyalty looming around you as a Christian. He knows where and how to come in
and help you get back to your feet and to the place of communion and fellowship
as from the beginning. Be encouraged therefore; be lifted in your spirit; Jesus
never forsakes His own.
Going through today's Fire Scripture, we see the one time fire
brand disciples of Jesus drifting back into their former business. Remember,
Jesus made them "fishers of men" out of ordinary fishermen.
Unfortunately, the weakness of the human mind is taking them back to who they
were before they encountered Christ. What a tragedy! No wonder, they sweated
and struggled without results! Thank God for Jesus who loved them. He didn't
want them to continue in error with unending profitless struggles. He didn't
want them to miss out of the promise of life, after being so close to Him, the
Giver of life. He stepped into their situation, helped them to see once again
that without Him, we can do nothing (John 15: 4-5). He told them to relaunch
their nets, and at His word they experienced a great catch!
Beyond that instant success, Jesus had fellowship with them
again. He dined with them. What a demonstration of love! Jesus is always
willing to restore you and get back to the place of fellowship with you, so
that you receive fresh grace and renewed strength. You are encouraged and fully
equipped to bounce back. I pray that you shall not miss this divine
opportunity, in Jesus' name.

1. Father,
forgive me for every sin of lukewarmness and backsliding, in the name of Jesus.

refuse to go back to my vomit, in the name of Jesus.
3.
Anything drawing me back to the world and away from God, come out and die, in
the name of Jesus.
πππππππ
4. I enter
into fresh grace of deeper fellowship with God and fellow believers, in the
name of Jesus.
5. Lord
Jesus, rekindle Your fire in me.
6. I shall
not be tired or weary in following and serving the Lord, in the name of Jesus.
