fervent: having or showing great warmth or intensity of spirit, feeling, enthusiasm, hot; burning; glowing.
Romans 12:11
Do not lack diligence; be fervent in spirit; serve the Lord.
James 5:16
Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
My precious friend Tracy quoted James 5:16 to me yesterday after I said I was praying constantly. I love her! She is so enlightening! I looked up "fervent". This is how our prayers should be ...a "fervent prayer" It should be intense with enthusiasm...burning or glowing.
God doesn't want our passive prayer he wants us to talk to him with interest and passion. How can we not if we truly think about WHO HE IS? We should talk to him like the CREATOR and the one who has more PASSION about our life than we EVER will.
WHOA!
I love it!
