One With The Father
May 6, 2020
Jesus in praying for all believers said in John 17:22 & 23, …that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.
His heart’s expression to His Father was that you and I would be one with Him as He is one with the Father. His heart’s cry was for oneness, unity among the brethren.
Perfect oneness, perfect love. Jesus in us is oneness.
“That they may be one”… He cried out the Father that you and I would be one!
One in spirit
One in mind
One in heart
One in love
Only as we walk in the Spirit can we maintain the spirit of oneness.
When I walk in the Spirit, Christ, which lives in me, will reach out to Christ, which lives in you.
Perfect oneness. No striving, competition, backbiting, jealousies or hardness of heart; only love, that lays down its life.
If I am one with Christ as Jesus has spoken and expressed as His desired will, and you are one with Christ, then you and I as fellow believers should be one with one another.
Lay down any offenses and bitterness. Stop all quarreling and self-seeking, and learn to see Christ in the brethren.
Look past the stumbling blocks for we all have them.
The result of oneness, of unity is the blessing of God. For where there is unity, God commands the blessing.
How good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
For there the Lord commanded the blessing- Life forever more.
Psalm 133:1 & 3
