Greater Passion For God

Hi everybody,

We live in troubled time. Many are disillusioned, discouraged and dejected. What do you do when things do not work out?. So many are sick and tired of being sick and tired.

In your moment of despair, what do you do?
In your moment of trouble what do you do?In your moment of turmoil, what do you do?

How you respond will determine how you move on.

David in Psalm 63 was going through a crisis in his life. His son Absalom had rebelled against him and was coming to kill him. This was probably the worst moment of his life – his son coming against him. So what does David do. In the wilderness of Judah, he cries out to God.

What can we learn from this?
How can we continue to be passionate for God amidst troubled times?
How can we love him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength?

We need a Greater Passion for God

1) A New Seeking (“Early will I seek you, my soul thirst for you, my flesh longs for you” Ps.63:1) We need to seek God. This involves:

• A more intimate personal relationship
• A greater desire for more of Him
• Pursuing Him alone to satisfy us
• Making Him the most important person in our lives
• Spending consistent time alone with God
• Getting Him involved in every area of our lives

2) A New Yielding (“God’s loving kindness is better than life” – Ps.63:3)
God is more important than anything else. He is the most important person to you.

• Put everything on the altar. Put your complete trust in Him. There is freedom when you yield
• As you yield, you allow God to move
• Don’t focus on what you want, look for what God wants
• When God closes a door, He has got something better.

3) A New Praising (“My lips shall praise You” – Ps.63:3)
Keep praising (63:3), blessing (63:4) and rejoicing in God (63:7). Live of life of thankfulness and praise

4) A New Thinking (Remember you….meditate on You” – Ps.63:6)
We need keeping focusing on God – not transient thoughts passing through but babiding thoughts that dwell. Learn to memorize and meditate on God’s Word.

5) A New Following (“My soul follows close behind you” – Ps.63:8)
We need to stay close and cling on to Him

See you on Sunday

We want to see you experience God’s goodness and power, live victoriously and be blessed.
