“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!”
Psalm 133:1 KJV
A psalm by king David, “How truly wonderful and delightful it is to see brothers and sisters living together in sweet unity!” Jesus prayed just before He endured the Cross, for this unity in the Body of Christ, the Church. “Holy Father, keep them safe by the power of Your Name, the Name that You gave Me, so that their unity may be like Ours.” This is the purpose of our God that all who believe in Him will come to the unity. We endeavour to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. God’s purpose is that we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ. Let’s enjoy this unity that God desires and be free from pride-filled opinions, for they will only harm our cherished unity. We don’t allow self-promotion to hide in our hearts, but in authentic humility put others first and view others as more important than ourselves. Let’s put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. This is good and pleasant for our God - let’s be happy in unity with our God. Amen!
