My dear Brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given you for today is from the book of Psalms 133:1,3, ” Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, running down on Aaron’s beard, down on the collar of his robe. It is as the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore”.
The Bible tells us to rejoice in the Lord always. According to Psalm 133:1,3, God emphasises the importance of unity. Especially for a family to have good things happen in their lives, there must be unity among the brethren. Only then can peace prevail in that family. When the brethren dwell in unity there will be harmony, joy and peace in the family.
This is the same when it comes to any husband and wife. When they live together in unity God will create pleasant situation in the family. When we speak of living in unity then there is no room for separation. God is always looking out for the peace and harmony of your family. Because He is a peace loving God. Learn to respect and treat your siblings lovingly irrespective of age or position. It is not necessary that only younger people should respect the elders. But even the elders should be humble enough to respect each other. God is pleased with such people. God’s children should always be first in extending help to others or reaching out to them your love and affection. Children of God should be first in getting reconciled with your dear ones. Godly people should be quick in extending love or help to someone who is badly in need of help.
A couple living together but if they do not have proper understanding then there will be no real joy between then. Their heart must be in tune with each other. There should not be any ego between them. Moreover misunderstanding separates families and gives room for many evil things. Satan easily enters into such families and destroys the joy of that family and brings sorrow and enmity between the members of the family. But unity helps in reconciliation and peace in the family.
The Bible says when you are alone you can chase only a thousand but when you are together you can fight against ten thousand. Today God is expecting oneness and unity among His children. Being alone you may have to encounter several problems in your life. Therefore God expects husband and wife, parents and children and brothers and sisters to live in unity and harmony. If you live in unity God will bless you abundantly all the days of your life. God will cause His Blessings and extend your life for evermore.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord I thank you for having blessed my children to live in peace and harmony. May they realize the importance of unity within the family. Teach them to be humble and loving. Help them to forgive others and reconcile with their loved ones at the earliest. In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
