One Prayer Devotion #10: Power and Passion


We saw two incredible messages yesterday from Jentezen Franklin on power and passion.

In case you missed it, we had a little miscue and ended up showing two separate video messages, one in each service. There's an old saying: "God works in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform." God was working yesterday to get the right message to the right people. They're both outstanding and worth your time. We'll post them to this site soon for you to watch or share.

I believe that the higher your passion for God, the greater your power will be.

Passion can work in your favor or it can work against you. Scripture
teaches that we should learn to control our own bodies in a way that is holy and honorable and not succumb to our passions (1 Thess. 4:3-5).

God’s word also reminds us that we should “never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord” (Rom. 12:11). Why don’t you pray right now that God would awaken your spiritual passion, and help you re-discover His love.
