William Ward said :''ENTHUSIASM & PERSISTENCE CAN MAKE AN AVERAGE PERSON SUPERIOR....INDIFFERENCE & LETHARGY CAN MAKE A SUPERIOR PERSON VERY AVERAGE ."
How is your holy passion barometer today people of God ?If we settle for doing just the 'necessary' we will never achieve greatness in God , of that I am convinced. Holy passion keeps you going when everyone else has long given up. If you are caught watching the clock, waiting for week-ends , groaning on Monday , living for your own space all the time then check your holy passion temperature .
If you continually live outside your passion area of life ...you will SLOWLY DIE , and that is not living , it is not even merely existing.
JESUS is Love & He is FIRE , when we do what we love we will find a fire that ignites us , His purposes will be fuelled by our desires .
King David had a passion for THE HOUSE OF GOD, in 1 Chronicles 29:3-5 he says, ''Moreover, because I have set my affection on the house of my God, I have given to the house of my God , over & above all that I have prepared for the holy house , my own special treasure ........Who then is willing to consecrate himself this day to the LORD ?" ( read the passage for yourselves & be inspired )
Spiritual passion is expressed with love for JESUS, His people & His house. When people COOL towards JESUS one of the first noticaeble things is they STOP attending Worship.
Secondly they have a ZERO prayer life & their time in God's Word is non-existence ...... examine yourself to see where your temperature is on God's scale ( not your own ,nor compared to others ...these are inaccurate measures ) .
Ask yourself ,"Do other people get fired up for Jesus when I am around "?
STAY HOT & FIRED UP FOR THE CAUSE OF JESUS CHRIST .....THE ONLY CAUSE ETERNALLY THAT WILL MATTER .
