Have you ever noticed that the fire you once had for God isn’t burning as brightly as it used to? Maybe prayer feels heavy, worship feels distant, and your heart is weary from simply going through the motions. You love God, but if you’re honest, you feel drained, dry, and far from the passion you once carried.

This is what we call spiritual burnout—and it’s more common than you think. Burnout doesn’t happen overnight; it creeps in slowly, as busyness, exhaustion, and distractions begin to crowd out intimacy with God. The good news is, burnout doesn’t have to be the end of your story.

In these next five days, you’ll walk through a journey of rediscovering your first love, confronting weariness, awakening your heart again, and inviting God to rekindle your flame. Don’t feel ashamed for where you are—God isn’t condemning you. Instead, He’s extending an invitation: “Come back to Me. Let Me restore your fire.”

If you’re ready to stop drifting and reignite your passion for God, these five days will mark the beginning of your renewal. Let’s step into this journey together and believe that the God who lit the fire once will ignite it again.

Day 1 – Signs of a Flickering Flame

Scripture:
“Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first.”
— Revelation 2:4

Devotional Thought:
Do you remember when your heart was on fire for God? When you couldn’t wait to spend time in prayer, worship, or studying His Word? Over time, that passion can fade—not because you don’t love God, but because life has a way of crowding Him out. Work, family, responsibilities, and even disappointments can slowly dim the flame of intimacy until you realize you’re just going through the motions.

If that’s where you are today, you’re not alone. Spiritual burnout doesn’t mean God has left you—it simply means He’s inviting you back to your first love. He’s not angry with you; He longs to rekindle your passion. Recognizing the flicker is the first step toward revival. The God who lit the fire once is ready to do it again.

Prayer:
Lord, I confess that my love for You has grown dim. I don’t want to just go through the motions—I want to know You deeply again. Restore my first love and reignite my passion for You. Amen.

Reflection/Action Step:
Take a moment today to write down three signs that show your spiritual fire has dimmed. Bring them honestly before God in prayer and ask Him to breathe fresh life into you.

If this devotional spoke to you, don’t stop here—this is just the beginning. God is calling you into a deeper journey of intimacy with Him.
