Theme: It all starts with love
Scripture:
“To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve His God and Father…” — Revelation 1:5–6 (NIV)
Before there was calling, correction, or purpose — there was love.
Love is always the starting line of redemption.
Before you ever did a thing for God, He had already chosen you.
When He found you, you weren’t shining — you were struggling. You weren’t perfect — you were pursued. That’s the beauty of divine love: it doesn’t wait for you to clean yourself up. It steps into your mess and begins to restore your identity.
The cross was never about what you could offer — it was about what He refused to live without: you.
His love is the foundation of your priesthood and kingship. Without it, there’s no authority, no confidence, no freedom — just striving.
But when you know you are loved, truly loved, everything else begins to align.
Reflect:
1️⃣ What lies have I believed about having to earn God’s love?
2️⃣ How does knowing I’m loved change the way I approach God today?
3️⃣ Who around me needs to experience this kind of love through me?
Pray:
“Father, thank You that Your love found me first.
You didn’t wait for my perfection — You met me in my brokenness and called me worthy.
Let Your love reshape how I see myself and how I love others.
Help me live from Your affection, not for it.
In Jesus’ name, amen.”
