Greater Passion

My husband and I made a pact last night that we are going to strive to go deeper this year with Jesus. To know Him more, to walk with a greater knowing of what He is doing on the earth. Passion comes first by making the decision to fight for it! There are so many distractions in every day life believe me,  I have to press in to keep them from my life.

The Bible says that the Lord reveals His secrets to His friends. His friends are those who fear Him. This year I want to experience the spirit of revival in my life and the lives of those around me. We are nothing without Christ and can accomplish nothing without His perfect leading. He promises that if we lean on Him instead of resorting back to our own understanding, He will show us which path to take in life. I believe that we can have a constant awareness of the Lord's presence in everything that we do. The problem is that people don't sit with the Lord enough or read His Word enough to get to know Him. Would you know the closest person to you if you never spent intimate time with them? Your relationship with Christ can never be neglected. Do you remember the words that the Lord spoke to the bridesmaids in the Bible, "Depart from me for I never knew you." Christ is constantly trying to get our attention. I can see Him standing next to us calling our names, but we are too distracted by everyday life to hear His voice. He is always working always wanting you, always loving you....... Are you giving Him your all? I pray that it will be your desire to have the Lord know you. With each passing day we should have a greater awareness of who God is. Everyday more of His character should be developing in you. We have one life to live don't waste it on temporary things. Seek the face of God this year. Let it be your desire and goal to have a greater passion for Jesus Christ!

Pray for revival for yourself and your loved ones!
 When you pray for others it releases God to move through their lives!
Revive us Lord by your continuous presence in our lives. Reveal to us your secrets that You only share with those who love and honor You. Teach us how to seek You in the times of rain and in the times of drought. Teach us to press through resistance, it is at that time that you are molding us into the likeness of You!
Building a daily relationship with the Lord requires maintaining a prayer life!
It deepens your spiritual roots and enhances your awareness of His presence!

Strive to read the Word! The Word is Jesus!
