Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace.
Ephesians 4:3 NLT
I’m uniting My people, says the Lord. The doctrine of demons divides us into opposing factions. Who will prevail? There is only One Lord and one Body.
For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future.
There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all, in all, and living through all.
Ephesians 4:4-6 NLT
The people of God will rise up from the grave at the Resurrection of the Dead, forever to be joined with the Savior. We are being prepared for the Wedding Supper of the Lamb. Let’s throw off our grave clothes and be clothed in Christ as is fitting for the occasion.
The Lord spoke to me the other day. He said, “Take care of the people in your circle. Your circle overlaps many circles.”
Think about it. If we brought our genuine self, the Christ in us, to every situation, the ripple effects of God’s influence would sweep around the world daily.
Just keep loving people. Keep speaking the truth in love. Trust God with making people grow into His image and likeness. Full maturity in Christ is the goal for every daughter and son. Keep walking in the light. The darkness will soon be gone. Persevere.
Father in Heaven, may we righteously represent You here on Earth. May we be the people of God who rise up and take our place in the Body of Christ exactly where You have purposed us to be in this season. May the words we speak be few. May they be words of life and grace and truth. May You always be our highest priority, our highest authority, our God and our King. Come quickly, King Jesus. Amen.
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there.
Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.
Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another.
Galatians 5:24-26 NLT
