Passion For Jesus Ministries

According to Scripture and the Lord Jesus Himself, the greatest commandment is this: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind.” (Matt. 22:37)

Many Christians can quote this passage, say all the right words, do all the right things, go to all the right places, but yet something vital is still missing on the inside of their mortal being. What is it that’s missing in the lives of so many “born again” Christians? Where is the genuine adoration and love of God that once burned within us? Do we really love Him with all of our hearts, all of our souls and all of our minds or is there a mixture in our Christianity?

Passion for Jesus

– Oswald Chambers

“Ye shall be witnesses unto Me.” These words of our Risen Lord (Acts 1:8) were spoken just before His ascension. We have to be careful lest we make the passionate watchwords, “a passion for souls” and “a passion for Christ,” into rival cries.

37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. (Matthew 22:37-38)

A look at God's purpose behind the purpose driven life. 

The body of Christ, in the days ahead, will have a fierce and determined spirituality. Yet we will have little or no tolerance for traditional "religion." Passion for Jesus with extravagant obedience to him will be the heartbeat of the church in this coming generation.

Where will this passion come from? I believe it will be imparted to us as we come to understand what I call the "bridal paradigm" of the kingdom of God—the important truths that emanate from our relationship to our Bridegroom, the Lord Jesus Christ.
