Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

Hebrews 10:23-25

Summary

For day two of our Acclimate journey toward Passion 2025, we want to come around the word "believe."

“Believe” means having confidence in something, and we, as believers, can be confident that there is a God on His throne who sees us and loves us right now. God knew what the world had to offer and the pain and suffering His Son would endure, yet He cared for us enough to send Jesus to take on the cross and be the atonement for our sins and defeat death in the grave so that we could have a relationship with Him for eternity (Isaiah 53:10). That’s the foundation and the hope we hold on to.

Hebrews 10:23-25 gives us two simple commands: to hope without wavering and to be together—encouraging one another as fellow believers with faith, love, and good work.

Passion 2025 gives us the opportunity for both steadfast hope and community in the days to come. It's not just a chance for people to come and hear new songs or great speakers; it's a chance for us to lift Jesus' name and renown among fellow believers and, in doing so, encourage each other. Then, when we go home to our schools or to work, we can be a light in this world for Jesus.

As verse 25 says, the day is drawing near. Jesus is coming back, and we want the world to know about Him.

Prayer:

Jesus, I love You and thank You for who You are and what You've done. As I get closer to Passion 2025, I pray You will raise my belief, faith, and confidence in what You're going to do. I pray that people will leave changed because that's what happens when we encounter You. We love You and praise You. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Scripture References

16For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.

17He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

18And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.

23Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.

24And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds,

25not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

12Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.

13Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

14And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

15Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

2I have seen you in the sanctuary

and beheld your power and your glory.

3Because your love is better than life,

my lips will glorify you.

4I will praise you as long as I live,

and in your name I will lift up my hands.

1In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple.

2Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.

3And they were calling to one another:

“Holy, holy, holy is the

Lord

Almighty;

the whole earth is full of his glory.”

20Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,

21to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

40Now when Jesus returned, a crowd welcomed him, for they were all expecting him.

Passion Conferences

Rooted in the confession of Isaiah 26:8, Passion exists to glorify God by uniting students in worship, prayer and justice for spiritual awakening in this generation. Since the first gathering in 1997, Passion has had the privilege of encountering millions of students and 18-25 year olds, a sea of young people whose lives have been transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit. Their voice is getting louder as they rise, united as a generation, bringing hope and light to the world.
