Psalm 133:1-2. “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments.”
UNITY. The voices are many, but the subject is the same. We live in separate homes but are gathered to His name. Our personalities are different, but even so, we claim – To live together in unity!
It is easy to say, but not always easy to act; That unity among us is not just a stated fact, And that our unity is more than just a human pact – To live together in unity!
What makes unity work is the gathering Object; And for the people of God, to Him we are subject, Allowing our Lord to always dictate – How to live together in unity!
Unity is an act of my will; I must make it a choice. I have to learn when to be silent and when to give voice, So that in unity there will be order – not a lot of noise – When we live together in unity!
We know there is unity when we see God’s blessing. We know something is wrong when some are always missing. May we always be ready for service, His name confessing – When we live together in unity!
“I fear Father God, that something is amiss here. There are some we only see when it is convenient for them. And they show themselves only briefly. They don’t want to hear the teaching. They are not interested in Gospel preaching. How can we bring about the needed unity? I ask in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
