*DIELESS PASSION FOR GOD*
SCRIPTURE : "And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment". Mark 12:29-30
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY : A person dedicated to God never comes to the end of the knowledge of God.
"Dedication to God means giving one’s body, heart and soul wholeheartedly to God. It is living to give God pleasure with one’s life. To be dedicated to God is to spend one’s life, time, energy and resources for God".
In order to know if a man or a woman is dedicated to God, there are proofs and evidences to look out for in his/her life. Knowing these proofs will also help improve our dedication to God.
Now, one major proof of dedication to God is die-less passion for God. (Psalm 63:1-2). This refers to an unquenchable hunger or passion to God. It is hunger for God that cannot be conquered. This is coming to the point where nothing in this world can take the place of your love for God – no amount of worldly possession or height of earthly attainment. A dedicated person demonstrates permanent hunger for God.
A person who is dedicated to God never comes to the end of the knowledge of God. "The more you know Him, the more you want to know Him". That a person that is restless, who is passionately yearning and longing to know more of God (Psalm 42:1-2). That is the passion of a man who is truly and genuinely dedicated to God.
Beloved, to have a heart that is comfortable with apathy and lethargy towards the things of God is a spiritual challenge. Make up your mind to be interested in what interests God.
REMEMBER THIS : A person who is dedicated to God never comes to the end of the knowledge of God.
*ASSIGNMENTS:*

PRAYER : O Lord,"I dedicate my life in service to You. I release my time, resources, giftings for Your service, Lord in Jesus’ Name"
FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE : "PROOFS (MARKS) OF DEDICATION"
QUOTE: "Nothing compels the attention of the multitude like proofs. When the proof is not strong, the pull is not strong". Culled from "MAKING FULL PROOF OF MINISTRY" by Dr Paul Enenche
DAILY READING : 1 Samuel 17:1 to 18:4, John 8:21 to 30, Psalm 111:1 to 10, Proverbs 15:11
AMAZING FACT : Charles Finney, the great revivalist, was a masterful orator; he addressed the audience as sinners and prayed for them by name. He prolonged his meetings until early morning and even carried his meetings to factories and as a result won innumerable souls for God.
TODAY IN HISTORY : 15/05/1957 - Evangelist Billy Graham launches his "crusade" in front of 18,000 people at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD : "A fresh baptism of hunger for God is upon you today. Proceed with fresh fire in Jesus’ Name".
