In Unity Of Oneness
John 17:20-21 “”My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.” John 17:20-21 NIV Jesus didn't pray just for His immediate disciples, but also for those who would believe on Him because of their word. Folks, that includes us! Jesus looked beyond the first generation of beli

WORDS FULL OF SPIRIT AND LIFE
John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. John 6:63, NKJV Do we want others to experience the abundant life that Jesus came to earth, died, and was resurrected for so they might have it? This verse says the Spirit alone gives life.

HEAVEN'S HARVEST
James 3:17-18 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.

HEAVENLY WISDOM
James 3:13-14 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.

Proverbs 11:25 The generous soul will be made rich, and be who waters will also be watered himself. Proverbs 11:25, NKJV One of the greatest traits any of us can be known for is generosity.

DIFFERENCE MAKERS
Isaiah 1:16-17 Wash and make yourselves clean. Take your evil deeds out of my sight; stop doing wrong. Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow. Isaiah 1:16-17, NIV It's easy to say that you're a believer in Christ.

SECURED
Psalm 22:27-28 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. For the kingdom is the LORD's: and He is the governor among the nations. Psalm 22:27-28, KJV Strong's Concordance defines "governor" as one who rules or reigns; one to whom is given power and authority. The Bible makes this abundantly clear. So how does this affect us? In what ways can we find comfort in the fact that God is the govern
