1 Timothy 2:3-4 (MSG) This is the way our Savior God wants us to live. He wants not only us but [everyone] saved, you know, everyone to get to know the truth [we’ve] learned.
It is my prayer that the body of Christ will discover the passion for the souls of men, that we will allow the Lord to ignite a fire of soul winning in us like never before.
Unfortunately, the messages on most of our pulpits are raising a generation full of self: A people who have no interest for lost souls at all, for their concern and prayer is for their personal needs to be met.
God’s formula is very different and simple, He will give you all you’re asking for, if your heart’s desire is aligned with the concern for the souls of men. (Matthew 6:33)
Daniel 9:1-19
Where are the Daniels who will sacrifice themselves to see a nation restored?
May God help us to free our hearts from selfish desires and give us a heart for the people.
John 17:26 (AMP) and I have made Your name known to them and will continue to make it known, so that the love with which You have loved Me may be in them [overwhelming their heart], and I [may be] in them.”
As we answer this call, Pray that the lord may circulate your soul with His love. When you desire God’s love wholeheartedly, something about you will change and you will start looking at people differently.
As long as everything is about you, you will always have indifference and little to no fire in your soul. The Master is beckoning us to let the souls of men become a priority in our hearts. This is a posture that will make heaven not withhold anything we need.
1 Corinthians 9:16 For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!
Most people have no zeal for the lost souls and that’s why they are struggling in life.
The apostles walked thousands of miles because there was something that drove them to. Let’s return our hearts to God and allow His fire burn in us again, so that we may be burdened with the Master’s burden for the lost souls.
Prayer
Precious Holy Spirit, as I yield to you, I pray that You bring undeniable passion and strong affinity within me for the souls of men. This I know, I cannot in my strength so I reach out to You, to help and impart it in me.
Let my heart respond to the heartbeat of Heaven. Amen.
STAY BLESSED AND HIGHLY FAVORED, WE LOVE YOU.
