Cultivating Unity // The Value of Unity
“I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”
The beginning of Ephesians 4 has struck me with its power to change relationships, offices, and churches around the world. Four words can do this, through the power of Christ. Four words, if embraced and lived out, can foster intimacy and ignite unity at all levels of your life.
Over the next five weeks, we will explore four attributes that can change the dynamics of not only the relationships you have in your home, family, and workplace but most importantly, within the Church.
This study will guide you down a path that sparks a unity revolution in your heart and overflows into your relationships, strengthening the bonds you have with your spouse, children, parents, siblings, friends, coworkers, and co-laborers in the local church.
Don’t overlook the power of these verses to penetrate your relationships and encourage unity to flourish. Humility, gentleness, patience, and love are the keys to unity and will aid you in all areas of your life if embraced!
Furthermore, these verses have the power to radically change your heart. I don’t know about you but there are a few of these I struggle to live out and diving deep into their meanings is reshaping my heart to be more like His. So not only is this a journey to unity, but it is a journey to be more like Christ.
Jump into this study with fierce determination to grow and watch God move mightily in your life! We'll take a look at humility so come back but until then, start praying this verse over your life and each day and ask God to help you walk out the attributes that cultivate unity.
