Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men. — 2 Corinthians 5:11

 Almost everything we do is affected by our level of motivation. In fact, it influences how Christians serve the Lord. Some people only give Him their best effort out of obligation. However, some people serve with a sense of urgency and zeal because they are aware of the dreadful situation that sinners are in. They give their everything to the Lord because they are so appreciative of God's saving grace in their life. 

That was the fervent drive behind the apostle Paul. He stated in 2 Corinthians 5:11, "Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men." "We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God," he continued (v. 20). Paul was serious. There was a lot on the line. 

May we all serve the Lord with zeal!

Sinners will be drawn to the light when Christians are passionate about sharing the gospel. O make my life a raging fire of a pure and sincere heart-desire To locate the lost, raise the humble, and lead them to worship Thy name.
