IS YOUR LOVE COLD?




And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. (Matthew 24:12). According to our opening scripture, one of the characteristics of the last days is that the love of many will wax cold. In other words, the passion and zeal of people for the things of God will go down. People will prefer watching movies to watching Godly channels and messages; they will prefer going to meetings and hanging out with friends to attending services and spending time with brethren; they will prefer spending money on carnal and material things than on spiritual and godly things; they will prefer chatting and browsing with their phones to studying their bibles, and so on.

Beloved, don’t let this scripture be fulfilled in your life. Don’t get too busy to have time for God. For some people, their loves grows cold because of persecution; they are too discouraged to love God, while for others, it is the blessing that they get that begins to quench their love; they don’t have time for God again. The scripture sums it up this way, “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38-39). Don’t let the events of the end time catch you unaware. Be sober and vigilant always so your love will not wax cold due to the abundance of iniquity.
