Last week, I introduced the S-P-E-A-K Principle, with “S” representing Story. Learning someone’s story signifies our care and creates connections that build relationships. 

Today, let’s dive into the second part: “Passion.”

The “P” in “speak” stands for passion, which is vital because it unlocks purpose and destiny. Passion often reveals a piece of our life’s puzzle.

Unfortunately, the devil often targets our passion, seeking to hinder our purpose. This connects deeply with our relationships. Understanding not just someone’s story but also their passions is crucial.

Many people are on the brink of giving up on their callings because external factors have eroded their passions. This is where we step in to reignite their aspirations and infuse purpose into their lives. We are meant to fulfill our purposes together; we need each other.

When the body of Christ comes together and shares their gifts, unity and strength prevail. Sharing passions with one another creates motivation and ignites a deeper hunger for what we love.

Many need their passions to be rekindled, and they require support, needing our belief, encouragement, and guidance. To accomplish this, we must first know their passions.

Today, let’s learn what excites others, discover the gifts God has placed within them, and help guide them in the right direction. We encounter not only people with diminished passion but also those whose passion has been distorted by the enemy. We have the opportunity to disciple and steer them back on the right path. Let’s take action today!

Nevertheless, it is good to be zealous if it serves a noble purpose—at any time, and not only when I am with you. – Galatians 4:18

It instructs us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live sensible, upright, and godly lives in the present age, as we await the blessed hope and glorious appearance of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ. He gave Himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds. – Titus 2:12-14
