DAILY BREAD OF LIFE

(KJV.)  ST. MARK 9:40

(40)  For he that is not against us is on our part.

THE CALL TO UNITY!

Grace be unto you!

Let peace reign among the body of Christ, so that you can focus on what matters, for the call of Jesus Christ to believers is to, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and, lo, I am with you always even unto the end of the world." Cf. Matthew 28:19-20;  therefore, it is essential to realize the task, prioritize our preferences in Jesus in other to accomplish the assignments.

The significant problems that Jesus had during his ministration on earth were with the Pharisees and the Sadducees;  they followed him around to listen to his teachings, use his words to convict him; as his followers, let us be careful not to be too judgmental towards what other believers are saying in the name of Jesus Christ, if whatever is being related is from the scriptures, Jesus gets the glory;  therefore, instead of pointing the mistakable fingers at others, advise one another with godly attitudes and counsels, not with argumentative approach, be encourageable, the judgments belong to Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

At a particular time, during the ministration of Jesus;  John, his disciple said unto him:  Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbade him because he followed not us; what is the reason why the disciples prohibited him?  They rejected him because he was not a disciple;  perchance, are you one of the people who speak ill of the people who are doing the will of Christ, merely because they are not in your clique?  If so, listen to what he said to John and the rest;  Forbid him not for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me:  cf. St Mark 9:38-39;  therefore, we have the assignment of Christ to fulfill, waist no time to argue among yourselves regarding the scriptures, rather spend quality time to focus on your callings, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace: refer to Ephesians 4:1-6.

Saints, united we stand, divided we fall;  therefore, refrain from strives;  who is wrong or right with preaching the gospel; instead discern that this type of attacks are of the devil, to cause confusion and caustic situations among brethren, resist it; love and care for one another, for we are in this mission together, and a kingdom divided against itself, cannot stand, cf. St. Mark 3:24,  therefore, be united in the body of Christ, we have a common goal to touch the heart of unbelievers, with the kingdom words; realize that the devil is warfaring the establishment, to destabilize its purpose on the earth,  therefore, never allow him to use you as an instrument of confusion, to cause division with the congregation of Christ.  Pray for one another!  Jesus is coming back again soon!  Amen and Amen! 

He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Rev. 3:13;  Surely I come quickly! 22:20.  Peace and Love be unto you!

WORD OF WISDOM:

(KJV.)  Proverbs 12:22  Lying lips are abominations to the LORD:  but they that deal truly are his delight.
