POWER OF UNITY 2

Text :  Genesis 11:6.

The LORD said, “Look! They are one people with the same language for all of them, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. Nothing that they have a mind to do will be impossible for them!

To stay united as a group, a family, an organization, or even as member of the body of Christ, it takes effort on the part of individual member.

Ephesians 4:3 says, *Do your best to maintain the unity of the Spirit by means of the bond of peace.*  The question is, are you really doing your best to maintain peace everywhere you go.

When the devil wanted to stop the early disciples from propagating the gospel, he sowed a seed of discord among them. (Acts 6:1). Thank God the Apostles were wise enough to quickly nip that division in the bud. (Acts 6:2-7).
 
No family can thrive to the best of their abilities if they are not united. No local assembly can succeed according to the will of God if they are disunited. Amos 3:3 posed a candid question, it says, Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

You walk in unity not because everyone is behaving well but because you are able to  forebear one another.

Unity is a vital aspect of faith and community. Unity is presented as a reflection of God's character, and a means of fulfilling God's purpose. 

In John 17, Jesus repeatedly prays for his followers to be one, just as he and the Father are one, demonstrating His desire for unity among believers. 
God desires unity among His children.
Unity is not just a desirable trait, but a necessary one for the flourishing of faith, community, and the fulfillment of God's purposes. 

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

1.) Father God, I ask  that you fill me with  heavenly wisdom to walk in love and unity every where I go in Jesus name.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
