Jesus prayed, “Not my will, but Yours, be done.” This demonstrates the importance of putting God’s will above our own. Doing so is key to eternal life with Jesus and the thread that binds us together as disciples of Christ in peace, harmony, and love.
Doing God’s will, as revealed in God’s Word, is how we achieve unity.
- Unity with God’s Word is unity with God.
- Unity with God’s Word is unity with others.
We find unity when we cumulatively do God’s will, when we seek and adhere to God’s Word as our standard.
Unity among believers is not found in doing our will; It is not found in dismissing any of God’s Word as unnecessary or not applicable today. Unity is not found by trying to improve on what God told us to do.
Unity is, however, key to our spiritual growth; it’s a thread that binds us together as disciples of Christ in peace, harmony, and Love.
Unity in Truth is important! Let us therefore seek and obey God’s will as revealed in His Word, that we may walk in true unity.
