Misdirected Passion
 
"I know what enthusiasm they have for God, but it is misdirected zeal." Romans 10:2 (NLT)
 
At the time the Apostle Paul writes this letter many Jewish people are desperately trying to get right with God. They are focusing all their strength and energy into keeping the Law. They have a great deal of passion, but their passion is directed towards the wrong thing. Passion for the Law would only steal from the relationship that God wanted to have with them.
 
Passion is a powerful thing, and God wants us to move and live in passion, but that passion is to be directed towards Him. When we become passionate about the things of this world: making more money, gaining social recognition, or greater status on the job, we are not able to love God as we should. But, we find if we will only seek God with everything we have, He will add all these things and more to us!
 
Count Zinzindorf, of the Moravian Revival, once said, "I have but one passion - it is He, it is He alone. The world is the field and the field is the world; and henceforth that country shall be my home where I can be most used in winning souls for Christ." Direct your passion towards God! Seek after Him with all you are! Embrace the call He has placed on the lives of all His children, to go out and redeem the lost of this world! Refuse to waste your passion on the things of this world, things that will only drive a wedge between you and your Father in Heaven!  If you want to live out your life to its fullest potential, direct your passion towards God, and allow nothing of this world to steal what rightly belong to Him!
 
"And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment." Mark 12:30 (NKJ)
