Burning Passion For God (1)

"But you have come... to God" (Heb.12:22-23)
Through redemption, we have come unto God, the ALMIGHTY God. There was an absolute shift of base from the kingdom of darkness UNTO GOD (Col.1:13); hence the demand on the believer to thirst and hunger after God with an unqeunchable passion (Mark 12:30).
God must remain d believer's prime desire and the one he's living to please.
It is absurd to have your passion for physical things of this life override your passion for God. More often than not, we are overwhelmed by our needs so much that we re content with prayer for needs thinking that's all there is to prayer. Prayer is a fellowship wit God and if it must meet God's standard, it must be 'God-centered' and not 'need-centered'.
The heart of the man born again must be a furnace of burning passion for God. I have not seen a greater anomaly than for someone to claim he is saved by grace and He's not thirsty after God.
Inclination towards God is planted in the heart of every man born again, and it meant to be cultivated.
Without a fervent love for God, christianity is reduced to mere religion and 'lifeless' routine. Do you really love God?
