The Ezra 710 Plan - Book 1: First Love: a Heart to Understand

Welcome to the first book in the three-book discipleship series called The Ezra 710 ? Plan. This material has been field tested literally all over the world and has been recently edited with new material added. If you are passionate about serving the Lord, taking up your cross daily and following Christ as a disciple and a disciple-maker, then you simply must go through this series. Then take your God given disciples through it as well. This is one discipleship series that you will go back to time and again, as the teaching and disciplines are fundamental and timeless. You could literally preach or lead devotions every week for a year or more with the material in the series and with all the new insights you will glean! First Love has a two-fold symbolism. For new believers it sets our hearts right from the beginning on what is most important in life. Our first love is and always will be the Lord. For older believers First Love is an exhortation to finish the race strong and reminds us never to lose our first love. ?But I have this against you, that you have left your first love. Therefore remember from where you have fallen, and repent and do the deeds you did at first?? Revelation 2:4, 5 NASB95 Every section in First Love is designed to establish and strengthen our spiritual foundation. Also, every Ezra 710 series publication has a chapter devoted to teaching others what we have just learned. Thus not only will we be learning these new spiritual disciplines, but we will learn how to get others started and excited about them as well. This is a hallmark of every Ezra 710 ? publication. We will Study, Practice and Teach. First Love covers the essential building blocks such as Quiet time, Prayer, the Armor of God and Bible Study. We will learn to correctly interpret the Bible and how to put the Word into action in our lives. The Bible study on God?s Love for Me from the book of First Corinthians will change our life. This study will empower us to be passionate in our ministry as we put into action the very love God has for us! The Lord is looking forward to spending this time with us, for we are His First Love!
