Scripture
Psalm 133:1-3 “How wonderful it is, how pleasant, when brothers live in harmony! For harmony is as precious as the fragrant anointing oil that was poured over Aaron’s head, that ran down his beard and onto the border of his robe. Harmony is as refreshing as the dew from Mount Hermon that falls on the mountains of Zion. And the Lord has pronounced his blessing, even life forevermore.”
Observation
1) Unity is the environment that God uses to pour out his spirit
2) Unity is more than the absence of division, dissension, strife or a party spirit
3) Unity is one vision, goals, and direction. Everyone is going the same direction working together to fulfill God’s will.
4) When the church or a family is in unity everything is wonderful and pleasant.
5) Unity is as important as the anointing. It is as refreshing as the anointing oil over Aaron.
Application
I need to promote unity in my family and in the church.
I must work to be in unity with the leadership of the church.
I need to teach the real meaning of unity.
I protect the unity of the church by confronting anything that threatens the unity of the body.
Ask God to bring and continue the unity of his church.
Prayer
Bring unity to my family.
Bring unity to First Assembly
Give us one vision, direction, and goals.
Remove any division, dissension, strife, and party spirit.
May we be one.
