Pray for unity!!
Good morning to all!!! Yes, another wonderful day in the LORD Jesus Christ! Who can be against if God be for us!! Do you have a time daily to go into God's word? What is more important? Arise 10 minutes earlier, take time during lunch, a few minutes right at quitting time, there is a time and you have to make the effort to us it.
John 17:20 "I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message."
Jesus prayed for all who would follow him, including you and me, and others you know. He prayed for unity (17:11), protection from the evil one (17:15), and holiness (17:17). Knowing that Jesus prayed for us should give us confidence as we work for his kingdom.
John 17:21-23 "Pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one-as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me. I have given them the glory you gave me, so they may be one as we are one. I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me."
Jesus' great desire for his disciples was that they would become one. He wanted them unified as a powerful witness to the reality of God's love. Are you helping to unify the body of Christ, the church? You can pray for other Christians, avoid gossip, build others up, work together in humility, give your time and money, exalt Christ, and refuse to get sidetracked arguing over divisive matters.
Take time, walk in unity, and glorify God. Thank you for reading with me today. Love you all!!
In Christ's Love and Grace
