Nehemiah 4:6  -  "So we rebuilt the wall till all of it reached half its height, for the people worked with all their heart."

     Passion is stamina that says "I'm going to go after this, no matter what happens.  If I have to wait ten years, I'm going to get it."  Passionate people are those who have discovered something more important than life itself.  Jesus told His disciples, "Whoever does not persevere and carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple." (Luke 14:27)

            Affirmations:

I REALIZE THAT GIVING UP FALSE VISIONS AND AMBITIONS FOR MY GENUINE VISION IS THE PATH TO TRUE LIFE.

I AM HUNGRY FOR MY VISION

I NEED PASSION TO FULFILL MY VISION.  I NEED PURPOSE TO PRODUCE PASSION

Matthew 16:25  -  "For whoever is bent on saving his life(his comfort and security here) shall lose it (eternal life);  and whoever loses his life (his comfort and security here) for My sake shall find it (life everlasting)."

Romans 11:29  -  "For God's gifts and His call are irrevocable.  (He never withdraws them when once they are given, and He does not change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace, or to whom He sends His call.)"

     The Holy Spirit, the very Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead, lives in us, making it impossible for us to be content with what we can only see, hear, touch, taste, and smell.  Our hearts know there is much more to life than what we perceive with our senses;  we are spiritually agitated by the lack of connection with the realm of the supernatural.  
     Written into the spiritual DNA of every believer is an appetite for the impossible that cannot be ignored or wished away.  end nothing satisfies the heart of the Christian like seeing so-called impossibilities bow their knees to the name of Jesus.  Anything less that this is abnormal and unfulfilling.

            Affirmations:

BAD TEACHING AND DISAPPOINTMENT HAVE ROBBED ME LONG ENOUGH OF THIS REALITY.

I REALIZE THAT THE NORMAL CHRISTIAN LIFE BEGINS WITH THE REALIZATION THAT WE WERE PUT HERE TO DO THE WILL OF GOD ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.

Luke 11:2  -  "Thy kingdom come.  Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth." 

In Psalm 27:8 David said, "When You said, 'Seek My face' my heart said, 'Thy face, Lord, I will seek.'"

God is saying to you, "Seek My face." What is your response? Is it like David's? Are you saying, "Thy face God, I will seek." Or are you saying, "When I get caught up at work, or when things slow down a bit..."? The time is NOW and by next month "this time" may have passed. Seek Him now, while He can be found, as the Scripture says (Isaiah 55:6).

Acting in the spirit of sacrifice He will come to you and His reward will be with Him:
Wherever His presence is, healing is. 
Wherever His presence is, restoration is.  
Wherever His presence is, peace is.  
Wherever His presence is, prosperity is.
We WILL See the Goodness of God

Psalm 27  ends with "I would have lost heart if I had not believed I would see the goodness of God in the land of the living." Psalm 27:13

Seeing the goodness of God – here, in our life – is the fruit of intimacy with God; it is part of the reward. Seek Him now. Seek His face and see His Goodness.

Can you sense His desire for time with you?
