Purging Passion

Josiah was king.  He was also 8.

Josiah though had a passion for the God of his father David, that caused him to become enraged by idols and false gods that would take away from his time and worship of the real God.  Idols in Josiah’s time were easy to spot and take down, and yet some were not.  These are the idols of today.

What are the things or activities that fight in your being for the place God should have? What are those things or activities that seek to be first in your heart, the place where God is seated?  Does the passion you have for God lead you into war with these things, or do you standby and passively allow things and activities to push God from His seat and take over your life?

We are called to follow God with a reckless abandon, and a soul on fire with love and passion for Him.  David danced naked in the street and we can do so much more reckless than that. God wants people who will look like fools because of the passion they have for him.

Does God have a place of purging passion in your life, where nothing else can take a hold, because you are keeping Him as the center of your life.
