Jesus loved, taught and empowered women throughout his ministry on earth. He encouraged them to demonstrate the feminine side of God: passion! When He died, the curse over women was broken. He's alive and women are free!
Don't lose sight of the romance you have with the Lord. Those who passionately love and pursue God will carry out great exploits! Even soldiers must become hopeless romantics because obedience brings results but love changes you and the world around you!
Ray Hughes shows how we are worshipping instruments who replenish the earth with the atmosphere of praise. Its time to become not just an informed mind but an inflamed heart.
God lights the fire on the altar but its the priests who keep it burning. If passion makes discipline pleasurable then how do we keep the fire burning? Bill exhorts us to continually offer the sacrifices of praise, good works, and fellowship that we might not lose the flame of our first love.
Passionate people are given incredible places of influence. Influence is not for the purpose of control, but for the purpose of serving others better. It is important to keep influence pure and be inviting, not imposing. In the kingdom we bring influence by what we say and how we live our lives. The Lord is preparing us for another level of influence.
