The Lord's Chosen!

(Today's devotion is brought to you by Cheryl, Pearl and Dawn)
Scripture Reference: Psalms 133

When I first read through the scripture, the main verse that stood out was Psalm 133:1- “How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!”

It is without a doubt that a family grows better together in unity instead of focusing on one another’s disparity.

Reading deeper into the verses in Psalm 133, I realized that God is actually telling us that when we live together in unity, it is like oil poured on the head and running down Aaron’s beard, and the oil symbolizes God’s blessing! When the family is united, God’s blessings will be like oil running down the generations, every generation will be blessed because God’s precious oil is poured out first on the head, and it will flow to the generations after.

Has it been difficult for you to embrace your spiritual family? Are your personal differences dividing your tribe? Today it is time to reflect on yourself. Are you willing to set aside differences and let God’s blessings flow like precious oil?

As simple as this song is, use it today to remind yourself that we are God’s chosen and we are to grow as one family.

God’s Family

God’s family ,God’s children,
Lift up your voice
God’s family, God’s chosen,
Let us rejoice!

United in the Spirit , United in the Lord,
One for another, one in the Lord!
