For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them. (Matthew 18:20 ESV)

Unity in the Spirit is the tightest unity that can be enabled to combine the power of heaven on this earth. The Word declares that where two agree on anything that they ask it will be done for them by the Father in heaven. (Matthew 18:19) Having been born again into the family of God represents the depth of unity which cannot be compared to anything else. Simply stated in Paul’s writings, nothing can separate you (us) from the love of God. (Romans 8:39) There is a real meaningful relationship with God and His children. When anyone feels alone and away from everyone else they can know that God is with them. (Romans 8:31) The Lord is with us at all times, He never leaves us nor forsakes us (Hebrews 13:5) His Spirit abides in us and and walks with us forming a powerful team which cannot be defeated. His Word being a sharpened sword which cuts through the lies and pride of the enemy and sets us high above the circumstances of life. The welding together of truth in the hearts of people will always bring a strength that cannot be conquered.

The Church is a strong unit of believers and has opportunities to bring down the enemies strongholds in and on this earth. Praying against the powers and principalities that raise up against the people of God and His promises. Tearing down the wicked hosts in high places and keeping the forces of evil at by by casting down the powers of darkness. The Body of Christ is one and should act as one in belief and in purpose. However, the reason for a weakened Church is not because God’s Word is failing, it cannot! It is because she has decentralized over trivial doctrinal beliefs that cause a deep lack of trust and unity. The base truth is that Christ is not being taught, preached or praised in many gatherings. Men are being raised up to be approved by people and the Lord is placed out on the edge of discussion and worship. Harnessing unity is not like taking a wild horse and breaking it. We are the ones that need to be harnessed and broken and that happens at salvation’s door. The entrance into the Kingdom of God takes team work and that continues through the nurturing and maturing of each believer. (Philippians 4:13) The Church needs to endeavor to keep unity of the spirit in the bond of peace. (Ephesians 4:3) There is a goodness that comes when God’s children come together in unity which births eternal and incorruptible strength amongst the Body of Christ.

Isolation and loneliness gives a breeding ground for doubt and fear and weakens the purpose of the Church. If God is with us (Hebrews 13:6) is the heart beat of all that know God… Hie Word and His promises keep the Church welded and determined to be victorious. The walls of separation have been torn down at Calvary and the unity and team work of God’s Church cannot be weakened lest people deny Christ and the power of His salvation. His power will never be broken nor His salvation tarnished but disunity in the family of God can bring defeat in the heart people when they are not accepted by those they have trusted. The Church is to always live out the John 17…. That they may be one eve as we are one…. (John 17:22)
