Theme For Joel Osteen Devotional 12 January 2018 – There’s Power in Unity!
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:
“By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
(John 13:35, NASB)
TODAY’S WORD:
People aren’t going to know we’re His disciples by how many times we come to church or how many scriptures we can quote. People will know we’re His disciples by the love we show one another.
The enemy tries to bring division throughout the Body of Christ by keeping us focused on our differences. When we’re critical and judgmental, we build walls that separate us. The Bible says in Ephesians 4:13, “We need to come together in the unity of faith.” There’s great power in unity! We can do a whole lot more together, as born-again believers, than we can do apart. Let’s decide to lay down our differences and come together in the unity of our faith in Jesus Christ.
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
God, allow the love of Christ to flow through me. I want to be a beacon of love and forgiveness-just as Christ came here to be. Remind me that when I hurt others, I also hurt You. God, use me to unify your family of faith! In Jesus’ name – Amen.
