These verbs in the Bible indicate a conflict between two spiritual states, and the effort it takes to attain the higher state. It's easy to see this when facing temptation -- giving in is so easy to do that we have to urge and pressure ourselves to resist; we have to make it really important to ourselves. Such experiences can also come, though, as we advance from a good spiritual state to a better one -- it might mean letting go of some easy, comfortable, simple ideas in order to explore more challenging, nuanced ones, and it takes a level of urgency to accomplish that as well.
