We are One Body

Scripture Reference: John 17:9-26

In John 17:22, our Lord Jesus said that He has given us the glory that God has given to Him, and that Glory is that we may be One as the Father and the Son are One.

We do not realize the power and the glory God has given to us, which can be made available through our Unity as the Body of Believers.

In this Year of Victory, I believe the Body of Christ is going to Breakout and rise up in its full Glory as a United Body. I believe too that we as a church can Breakout and rise up in Unity.

But the Unity movement needs to start from us, as individuals. Unity needs to begin in the cell level, in the sub-zone level, in the tribe level, between the Ladies Tribe and the Guys Tribe, etc etc etc....

This is Jesus’ Prayer: “May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.

Do you struggle when someone has a different opinion from you, or their way of doing things just frustrates you? What good is it to cause a conflict or witness the failure of your brother/ sister?
Today, put your pride aside.
Will you ask God to change your heart & attitude towards that person?
Will you put on the heart of Jesus and be that good brother/ sister to help see the success of one another?

Then indeed, we will experience Victory as we Breakout into God’s Glory through His United Body!!!
