Christ is what unifies us, unity with other believers enables us to endure persecution, and show the greatness of God. Phil 1:27 only let our conversation be as it becomes the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel. Satan loves to divide and conquer, but his efforts fail when we make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. God appeals to us in the name of Jesus that all believers agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among us and that we may be perfectly united in mind and thought. Colossians 3: 13-14 and furthermore we must bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances we may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgives us. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. With family, blood unifies us, and with others, the Blood of Christ unifies us.
Father, let believers everywhere experience the blessing of unity in You. Lord, teach us of what we have in common; one hope, one faith, and one Lord, that is Christ Jesus. Father, the love we have for You gives us oneness, harmony, agreement, and unity. Lord, equip Your people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up; and our Spirits united as one, with love for each other. Father, give us a desire for Your Word; so we may gain the wisdom and knowledge to reach, unity in the faith of Christ. Father, help us mature in Spirit; and attain the whole measure of the fullness of Christ, so we may be brought to completeness with each other. In Jesus name Amen
