It is important for us to be united, because when we are united, we begin to have one spirit, one mind, and one heart. Unity allows things to run more quickly and without interruptions or delays. Unity attracts God's attention and blessings to manifest in our lives.
There must be a difference between Christians and sinners, and can be accomplished when Christians work together. In other words, the more we unite, the more the world will realize that we are members of the family of love, also known as the family of Jesus.
And it becomes much easier for us to overcome a particular challenge.
It is difficult for a lion to attack an elephant on its own, but when the lion is surrounded by other lions, the task becomes much easier.When there is division, you either find yourself in one place or moving in circles. Because some members of the group want to return to Egypt, while others want to go straight to the Promised Land. So, in life, pick a winning team and surround yourself with people who share your values. When you associate with fools, you become one of them.
"Holy Father, keep them safe through the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one" (See John 17:11). This prayer of Jesus, the last words he spoke while surrounded by his disciples, demonstrates how important unity among his disciples was to Jesus.
The deep unity that Jesus had and continues to have with his Father is both the standard and the source of unity among his disciples. The triune God is responsible for Christian unity. His nature is thus revealed in the fellowship of his children. In his prayer, Jesus asks the Father to grant the disciples' unity to those who will listen to their message.
It is my prayer that any disagreements we may have with one another will be resolved and set aside so that we can move forward and do everything God has called us to do.
