What are some Bible verses about passion?

Answer  
  

Colossians 3:23  

Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men,  
  

Galatians 5:24

Matthew 6:21

Psalm 73:25\-26  

Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.  
  

1 Corinthians 9:24\-27  

Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it. Every athlete exercises self\-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.  
  

Romans 12:10\-11  

Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord.

My soul longs, yes, faints for the courts of the Lord; my heart and flesh sing for joy to the living God.  
  

Colossians 3:5  

Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.  
  

Psalm 63:1  

A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.  
  

Philippians 2:2  

Complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.  
  

James 1:17\-20  

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.  
  

1 Corinthians 7:9  

But if they cannot exercise self\-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.  
  

Psalm 32:8  

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.

One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.  
  

Philippians 4:13  

I can do all things through him who strengthens me.  
  

John 14:12  

Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.  
  

1 Corinthians 9:19\-23  

For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings.  
  

Isaiah 26:8\-9  

In the path of your judgments, O Lord, we wait for you; your name and remembrance are the desire of our soul. My soul yearns for you in the night; my spirit within me earnestly seeks you. For when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.  
  

Colossians 3:14  

And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.
