Keeping Unity



“All people will know that you are my followers if you love each other.” John 13:35

Stop and think about that verse for a minute. Could it be that unity is the key to reaching the world for Christ? . . .

Nowhere, by the way, are we told to build unity. We are told simply to keep unity. From God’s perspective there is but “one flock and one shepherd” (John 10:16). Unity does not need to be created; it simply needs to be protected.

Famous Quotes on Prayer

 "God does nothing except in response to believing prayer." John Wesley

 "Prayer is where the action is." John Wesley

 "The man who mobilizes the Christian church to pray will make the greatest contribution to world evangelization in history." Andrew Murray

 "Faith in a prayer-hearing God will make a prayer-loving Christian." Andrew Murray

 "We must begin to believe that God, in the mystery of prayer, has entrusted us with a force that can move the Heavenly world, and can bring its power down to earth." Andrew Murray

Think it over…

A happy marriage is a long conversation that always seems too short…Andre Maurois

But as many as received him, to them gave the power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name: (John 1:12)

The right to become God's own children! Halleluiah! How blessed are we who believe! To become children of God's right hand, adopted into everlasting glory, is such a wondrous act of mercy that we can only respond with praise never-ceasing! Holy, holy, holy is our Lord! Hallelujah! Rejoice!

Spiritual Quotes 

"Spring bursts today, For Christ is risen and all the earth's at play."

“Self is the opaque veil that hides the face of God from us. It can be removed only in spiritual experience, never by mere instruction.”

“Above all the grace and gifts that Christ gives to his beloved is that of overcoming self.”

“God, harden me against myself.”

Word of God

Lord, teach me to walk in obedience to your ways:

1 John 3:24  

Those who obey his commands live in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.

Lord, strengthen me to stand against the enemy:

Ephesians 6:10  

10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 

11  Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.
