A Prayer for Unity

STARTING IN JOHN CHAPTER 13 THROUGH 17

WE SEE A PRIVATE CONVERSATION THAT JESUS IS HAVING WITH HIS DISCIPLES JUST BEFORE HE IS CRUCIFIED

IN CHAPTER 17, JESUS CONCLUDES THIS PRIVATE CONVERSATION BY PRAYING

BY THE WAY THIS IS HIS LONGEST RECORDED PRAYER IN THE BIBLE

THE WHOLE 17TH CHAPTER IS DIVIDED INTO 3 SECTIONS

THE FIRST SECTION HE IS PRAYING FOR HIMSELF......

THAT THE FATHER WOULD GLORIFY HIS SON SO THAT

THE SON COULD GLORIFY THE FATHER

THEN, THE SECOND SECTION

JESUS PRAYS FOR HIS DISCIPLES WHO ARE IN THE ROOM....

JUDAS HAS ALREADY EXITED SO....

IT IS JUST THE 11 DISCIPLES THAT ARE LEFT

AND JESUS TAKES TIME TO PRAY FOR THEM

AND HE PRAYS FOR THEM THAT.....

THEY MIGHT HAVE HIS JOY AND THAT THE FATHER MIGHT PROTECT THEM FROM THE EVIL ONE

THE LAST SECTION IS JESUS PRAYING FOR THOSE WHO WOULD LATER BELIEVE IN HIM

THAT IS US!!!

JESUS ACTUALLY PRAYS FOR US

HE PRAYS FOR THE CHURCH....

HE SPECIFICALLY PRAYS FOR US TO HAVE UNITY

SO LETS READ STARTING IN VERSE 20....

John 17:20–26 NIV

20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 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. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one—23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. 24 “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. 25 “Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. 26 I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.”

OPEN IN PRAYER.....

UNITY IS A PRECIOUS COMMODITY

AND LIKE MOST GOOD THINGS THAT WE TAKE FOR GRANTED

WE NOTICE SOMETHING WHEN WE DON’T HAVE IT

THINGS LIKE DISUNITY AND DISHARMONY WITH IN

FAMILIES

AMONG FRIENDS

WITH IN THE CHURCH

THESE THINGS CAUSE US TO NOTICE THAT UNITY IS MISSING

IT IS SUCH A CHERISHED COMMODITY THAT KING DAVID SPENDS AN ENTIRE CHAPTER IN PSALM 133 TALKING ABOUT THE SUBJECT OF UNITY

I WANT TO READ IT TO YOU TODAY

Psalm 133 NKJV

A Song of Ascents. Of David. 1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity! 2 It is like the precious oil upon the head, Running down on the beard, The beard of Aaron, Running down on the edge of his garments. 3 It is like the dew of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the Lord commanded the blessing— Life forevermore.

IT’S A SHORT PSALM BUT...

DAVID WROTE IT SPECIFICALLY ON THE TOPIC OF UNITY

HE SAID IN THE FIRST VERSE THAT UNITY IS....

BOTH GOOD AND PLEASANT

IT IS GOOD BECAUSE IT REFLECTS THE CHARACTER AND NATURE OF GOD

AND IT IS PLEASANT BECAUSE.....WELL

LIFE IS MUCH MORE ENJOYABLE WHEN PEOPLE ARE LIVING IN PERFECT HARMONY

WOULD YOU AGREE???

THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN CONSTANT BICKERING AND CONFLICT AND FIGHTING

SOME OF YOU WHO JUST SPENT THE HOLIDAYS WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY...

CAN PROBABLY ATTEST TO THIS…LOL

OH COME ON....

UNITY IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO TAKE TO HEART

BECAUSE THIS IS THE WILL OF THE FATHER FOR YOU AND I

THAT WE LIVE IN UNITY

DAVID SAID...

IT’S LIKE THE ANOINTING OIL POURING OVER THE HEAD OF ARRON

RUNNING DOWN OVER HIS BEARD AND ONTO HIS GARMENTS

NOW....

AARON WAS THE VERY FIRST HIGH PRIEST OVER ISRAEL

HE WAS THE BROTHER OF MOSES

AND GOD PRESCRIBED A WAY THAT THE HIGH PRIEST SHOULD BE SET APART FOR GOD’S PURPOSES

AND THAT THEY SHOULD BE ANOINTED WITH OLIVE OIL

AND SO THIS WAS A WAY OF SYMBOLICALLY REPRESENTING THE PERSON AND

POWER OF GOD COMING UPON THEM IN FULFILLMENT OF THEIR DUTIES

AND DAVID SAYS...

UNITY IS LIKE THE ANOINTING OIL POURING OVER AARONS HEAD ONTO HIS BEARD AND TO HIS GARMENT

AND THEN HE SAYS...

UNITY IS LIKE THE DEW OF MOUNT HERMON...

MOUNT HERMON IS THE HIGHEST POINT IN ISRAEL UP NORTH

HE SAID LIKE THE DEW DESCENDING ONTO THE MOUNTAINS OF ZION WHICH IS DOWN SOUTH

IT IS INTERESTING THAT HE IS USING THESE COMPARISONS TO MAKE HIS POINT

I BELIEVE THAT THE WRITER IS TRYING TO GET US TO UNDERSTAND THAT....

THERE IS SOMETHING HIGHER....THAT FLOWS DOWN LOWER

THE OIL FLOWED DOWN...

OH MY LORD HELP US...

UNITY IS SOMETHING THAT COMES FROM ABOVE

UNITY IS SOMETHING THAT GOD DESIRES FOR US TO EXPERIENCE BUT...

IT CAN NOT BE HUMANLY MANUFACTURED

WE CAN TRY BUT...

THE MOST COMPLETE KIND OF UNITY THAT BRING JOY

IS WHAT DESCENDS FROM ABOVE

IT IS WHAT FLOWS DOWN FROM HEAVEN AND POURS OVER US IN A VERY SPIRITUAL AND MIRACULOUS WAY

WE SERVE A GOD OF UNITY....

HE IS A GOD OF UNITY NOT DIVISION

LETS THINK ABOUT THIS FOR A MINUTE...

IF YOU LOOK IN GENESIS CHAPTER 2

HE TOOK TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TYPE OF PEOPLE

AND HE UNITED THEM AND HE SAYS THIS ABOUT MARRIAGE...

THAT THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH

THIS MERGE.. I HAVE MENTIONED MANY TIMES NOW IS LIKE A MARRIAGE

TWO DIFFERENT THINGS COMING TOGETHER TO CREATE SOMETHING NEW...

IT TAKES UNITY

ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THIS UNITY IS EPHESIANS CHAPTER 2

PAUL WRITES ABOUT A WALL OF HOSTILITY BETWEEN JEWS AND GENTILES

AND THEN CHRIST CAME AND DIES ON A CROSS AND THROUGH HIS SACRIFICE

HE KNOCKS DOWN THAT WALL OF HOSTILITY AND UNITES THE TWO AND...

THEY BECOME ONE THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST

OH COME ON SOMEBODY....

GOD IS ALL ABOUT UNITY

THIS IS HIS PRAYER FOR YOU AND I

AND THIS IS HIS WILL FOR EVERY BELIEVER

John 17:22–23 NIV

22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one—23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.

THIS PRAYER THAT HE PRAYS FOR US IS INCREDIBLE....

FOR US TO EXPERIENCE THE SAME UNITY THAT FATHER, SON , AND HOLY SPIRIT EXPERIENCE????

IN OTHER WORDS

IT’S A UNITY THAT ONLY COMES FROM HEAVEN

AND NOT FROM AND EARTHLY KIND OF MANUFACTURED UNITY

GOD’S OBJECTIVE IS TO UNITE AND COMPLETE US AS HIS CHURCH

SATANS OBJECTIVE IS TO....

DIVIDE US AND CONQUER US

THERE ARE 6 THINGS LISTED IN THE BIBLE THAT GOD HATES AND A SEVENTH THAT IS AN ABOMINATION TO HIM

PROVERBS 6:16 SAYS THERE ARE 7 THINGS

AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT LAST ON THE LIST????

ONE WHO SOWS DISCORD AMONG THE BRETHREN

PEOPLE WHO ARE SOWING DIVISION

PEOPLE WHO ALMOST FEED ON CONFLICT

YOU KNOW ANYONE LIKE THAT?

THIS IS NOT OF GOD

THIS IS AN ABOMINATION TO HIM

LOOK WHAT THE WORD OF GOD SAYS...

Titus 3:10 NIV

10 Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them.

THE REASON JESUS PRAYS FOR US TO BE IN UNITY IS BECAUSE....

WE ARE NATURALLY DIVISIVE

OUR SIN NATURE IS NATURALLY SELF-CENTERED

OH COME ON SOMEBODY...

SELF-CENTEREDNESS LEADS TO DIVISION

OTHERS-CENTERED LEADS TO UNITY

JESUS WAS THE MOST OTHERS-CENTERED PERSON THEIR EVER WAS

HE WAS SO OTHERS CENTEREDNESS THAT...

Philippians 2:7–8 (NIV)

7 he made himself nothing

by taking the very nature of a servant,

being made in human likeness.

8 And being found in appearance as a man,

he humbled himself

by becoming obedient to death—

even death on a cross!

HE LAID DOWN HIS LIFE....WHY?

BECAUSE HE HAD ALL OF US ON HIS MIND

IN JOHN 17 WEW SEE THAT THE WORD “ONE”

IS USED FIVE TIMES IN FOUR VERSES

HE WANTS US TO BE…ONE

UNITY IS HIS PRAYER

BEFORE WE GO ANY FURTHER THOUGH....

I WANT TO ADDRESS SOMETHING WITH THE WORD UNITY

UNITY IS A LOADED WORD

THE QUESTION

UNITY FOR WHAT CAUSE.....

NEEDS TO BE ANSWERED

IN OTHER WORDS....

WHEN IS IT OK .....OR....IS IT OK TO NOT BE IN UNITY WITH OTHERS?

I THINK THAT THE WAY THE WORLD SEES UNITY IS SIMILAR TO THE WAY THE WORLD SEES LOVE

LET ME EXPLAIN

THE WORD LOVE...

THIS MEANS SOMETHING VERY DIFFERENT IN THE WORLDS EYES

IF YOU LOVE ME, THEN YOU ACCEPT ME THE WAY I AM

IF YOU LOVE ME THEN YOU AFFIRM ME AND MY BEHAVIOR

IF YOU LOVE ME THEN YOU’LL SUPPORT ME AND HELP ME AT ALL COSTS

THE WORD UNITY FROM THE WORLDS EYES MEANS...

IF UNITY IS GOING TO HAPPEN THEN WE NEED TO AGREE ON THE SAME THINGS

WE NEED TO LIVE THE SAME

WE NEED TO BELIEVE THE SAME THINGS

WALK AND TALK THE SAME WAY

HOWEVER LOVE FROM GODS PERSPECTIVE IS VERY DIFFERENT...

HE SAYS I LOVE YOU THEREFORE...

I WILL NOT SUPPORT YOU IN CERTAIN DECISIONS

I WILL NOT AFFIRM YOUR ACTIONS

I WILL NOT ACCEPT YOU AND YOUR BEHAVIOR

I LOVE YOU SO I WILL TELL YOU WHEN YOUR WRONG

I WILL TELL YOU WHEN YOUR OUT OF LINE ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURE

UNITY FROM GOD’S PERSPECTIVE IS...

REGARDLESS OF OUR DIFFERENCES

REGARDLESS OF US DISAGREEING ON CERTAIN THINGS

REGARDLESS OF DIFFERENT STYLES OF WORSHIP

REGARDLESS OF DIFFERENT VERSION OF BIBLE WE READ FROM

WE CAN STILL LIVE IN UNITY TOGETHER AS THE BODY OF CHRIST

4 THINGS ABOUT BIBLICAL UNITY

UNITY IS CENTERED ON CHRIST AND HIS WORD

John 17:16 NIV

16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of it.

WHICH IS TRUE FOR ALL BELIEVERS

THIS IS NOT OUR HOME

John 17:17 NIV

17 Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.

THERE HAS TO BE COMMON UNDERSTANDING ABOUT WHAT TRUTH IS IN ORDER FOR US TO HAVE UNITY

IT CAN NOT BE THIS VAGUE UMBRELLA WHERE EVERYONE GATHERS TOGETHER AND...

WE CAN BELIEVE WHATEVER WE WANT

EMBRACE WHATEVER WE WANT

AND CALL IT UNITY

IN SAYING THIS....

THERE IS ROOM FOR DIFFERENCES

WE HAVE DESCRIBED THIS MERGE AS A MARRIAGE SO...

LETS LOOK AT MARRIAGE AS AN EXAMPLE

LOOK AT YOUR SPOUSE RIGHT NOW...

YOU ARE NOT THE SAME…LOL

I MARRIED MY COMPLETE OPPOSITE

AND THEREFORE SHE IS WRONG EVERY SINGLE TIME....

OBVIOUSLY THAT ISN’T TRUE BUT WE STILL THINK THAT SOMETIMES

WHY?

BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE ONENESS

YOU ARE STILL VERY DIFFERENT PEOPLE

THAT IS WHY YOU LOOK AT THE OTHER PERSON ALL THE TIME AND SAY..

“WHY DID YOU SAY IT LIKE THAT” AND

WHAT DID YOU MEAN BY THAT AND

HOW COME YOU DO IT LIKE THAT

AND DO YOU REALLY HONESTLY FEEL LIKE THAT? AND

HOW COULD YOU FEEL THAT WAY?

OH COME ON SOMEBODY....

HAVE YOU EVER HAD A CONVERSATION LIKE THAT?

ABSOLUTELY....PROBABLY EVEN ON YOUR WAY TO CHURCH THIS MORNING

YOUR TWO PEOPLE WHO ARE ONE IN CHRIST

ONE IN THE BOND OF MARRIAGE

BUT YOUR TWO VERY DIFFERENT PEOPLE

YOU HAVE DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES

AND THAT IS THE BEAUTY OF MARRIAGE

MARRIAGE WAS INTENDED TO BE A COMPLIMENTARY THING

YOUR STRENGTHS MAY NOT BE YOUR SPOUSES STRENGTHS

AND VISE VERSA

CAN YOU SEE HOW THIS CAN APPLY TO US AS A NEWLY MERGED CHURCH???

WE MAY HAVE DONE THINGS DIFFERENTLY IN THE PAST

THERE WILL BE SOME STRENGTHS FROM ONE AND SOME DIFFERENT STRENGTHS FROM THE OTHER

BUT THIS MARRIAGE MERGER IS COMPLIMENTARY

AND JUST LIKE THE SIGN IN THE BACK SAYS....

THIS CHURCH IS A FAMILY AND....WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER

WHY????

BECAUSE OF UNITY IN CHRIST

BECAUSE WE HAVE A COMMON MISSION TO....

REACH THE LOST

TO GROW THE KINGDOM OF GOD

AND TO DISCIPLE CHRISTIANS TO SPIRITUAL MATURITY

OH COME ON SOMEBODY...

THERE MAY BE DIFFERENCES ALONG THE WAY

THERE MAY BE CHANGES YOU DON’T LIKE

YOU MAY SAY....”WELL I WOULD HAVE DONE THAT DIFFERENTLY”

BUT THAT IS OK....

THE QUESTION IS....WILL YOU ALLOW THE ENEMY TO SIDE TRACK WHAT GOD WANTS TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

BECAUSE OF SOME INDIFFERENCE'S

OR WILL YOU PRAY.....LORD CHANGE MY HEART

SO THAT WE MAY BE ONE....

AS YOU ARE WITH THE FATHER

CAN I GET AN AMEN????

DIVERSITY IN THE BODY IS NECESSARY....

IF YOUR ALWAYS FINISH EACH OTHERS SENTENCES

AND ALWAYS THINKING THE SAME THING

AND LIKE THE SAME THINGS....

THAT IS BORING...

AND IF THIS IS THE CASE THEN ONE OF YOU AREN’T NECESSARY......LOL

IF THIS IS YOU IN MARRIAGE....

I’LL INTRODUCE YOU TO BROTHER SCOTT CAMPBELL

HE WILL STIR SOME STUFF UP REAL QUICK

I’M KIDDING....IF GOD HAS KNIT YOU TOGETHER AND YOUR VERY SIMILAR...

WONDERFUL FOR YOU

IT’S FUNNY....THE PHRASE THAT DEFINES FRIENDSHIP IS...

BIRD OF A FEATHER....FLOCK TOGETHER

BUT THE PHRASE THAT DEFINES MARRIAGE IS....

OPPOSITES ATTRACT

THERE IS A REASON FOR THIS....

GOD KNOWS THAT IN MARRIAGE THERE IS A COMPLIMENTARY RELATIONSHIP THAT TAKES PLACE

ONENESS IS NOT…SAMENESS

WRITE THAT DOWN

IT’S ABOUT BRINGING TOGETHER THE DIFFERENCES IN HARMONY UNDER CHRIST

ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS TODAY IS THIS...

IN AN EFFORT TO PURSUE UNITY

CHURCHES HAVE FORSAKEN INTEGRITY AND DOCTRINAL PURITY

THIS IS NOT THE KIND OF UNITY THAT JESUS IS TALKING ABOUT

MARTIN LUTHER SAID THIS....

PEACE IF POSSIBLE

BUT TRUTH AT ALL COSTS

2. UNITY IS DIVERSITY WITH HARMONY

AGAIN LIKE IN MARRIAGE....ONENESS ASSUMES DIFFERENCES

THE QUESTIONS IS...

HOW DO WE MAKE OUR DIFFERENCE WORK TOGETHER IN...

A COMPLIMENTARY WAY INSTEAD OF A COMPETITIVE WAY

THINK OF IT LIKE AN ORCHESTRA……(EXPLAIN)

HARMONY IS WHEN PEOPLE SING VERY DIFFERENT PARTS

AND WHEN SUNG TOGETHER,

.......HARMONY.......

(POSSIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH AUDIENCE)

Colossians 3:13–14 NLT

13 Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. 14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony.

ONE OF THE REASONS PEOPLE DON’T LIVE IN HARMONY IS...

BECAUSE THEY CAN’T FORGIVE

YOU CAN’T HAVE HARMONY IF YOU DON’T FORGIVE EACH OTHER

LIVING IN HARMONY REQUIRES YOU TO BE...

OTHERS CENTERED

1 Peter 3:8 NIV

8 Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble.

THAT IS OTHERS-CENTERED

3. UNITY IS BASED ON A MUTUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST

LET ME EXPLAIN THIS TO YOU...

YOU CAN HAVE UNITY WITH UNBELIEVERS

AS LONG AS YOU FIND....COMMON GROUND OR SIMILAR INTEREST

THIS IS ALSO TRUE IN A SECULAR COMPANY OR ORGANIZATION

AS LONG AS THE EMPLOYEES ARE STRIVING FOR THE SAME GOAL AND OBJECTIVE

THERE CAN BE UNITY

BUT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND.....

THIS IS VERY SURFACE TYPE UNITY

WHAT JESUS IS TALKING ABOUT HERE IS A VERY DIFFERENT AND DEEPER TYPE OF UNITY

THERE IS A RICHNESS IN FAMILY

IN MARRIAGE

A RICHNESS IN CHURCH THAT CAN NOT BE MANUFACTURED

THIS IS WHY YOU CAN MEET A BELIEVER FOR THE FIRST TIME AND

YOU INSTANTLY HAVE A COMRADERY WITH THEM...

UNLIKE YOUR FAMILY WHO AREN’T BELIEVERS

WHY??

BECAUSE OF UNITY IN CHRIST...

THERE IS A DEEPER SINCE OF UNITY AND LOVE WHEN YOU ARE IN CHRIST

THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY THE BIBLE SPEAKS AGAINST...

A BELIEVER MARRYING AN UNBELIEVER

IT CALLS IT BEING UNEQUALLY YOKED

IT’S NOT BECAUSE THE BELIEVER IS HIGHER THAN OR GREATER THAN THE OTHER

IT’S BECAUSE…GOD KNOWS THAT THERE IS A DEEPER UNITY THAT COMES WITH THE COMMON RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS

AND IF THAT IS NOT MUTUAL THERE WILL BE MORE FRICTION

AND MAKES IT HARDER TO SURRENDER EVERYTHING TO CHRIST

DOESN’T MEAN YOU CAN’T BUT IT’S HARDER....

.....WORSHIP TEAM JOIN ME.....

4. UNITY IS OBTAINED FROM GOD BUT MAINTAINED BY US

WE STARTED OUT READING ABOUT THIS UNITY THAT IS LIKE...

ANOINTING OIL THAT COMES FROM ABOVE AND

DESCENDS DOWN TO US LIKE THE DEW ON MOUNT HERMON

SO GOD IS THE AUTHOR OF UNITY

AND THROUGH CHRIST GIVES US THIS SPIRIT OF UNITY

IN FACT PAUL SAYS THIS IN ROMANS 15:5-6

Romans 15:5–6 CSB

5 Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement grant you to live in harmony with one another, according to Christ Jesus, 6 so that you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ with one mind and one voice.

HE SAYS THIS SO THAT…WE CAN KNOW THAT THIS KIND OF UNITY COMES FROM ABOVE

BUT THEN INTERESTINGLY PAUL ALSO SAYS IN EPHESIANS 4:2-3

Ephesians 4:2–3 NIV

2 Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. 3 Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

SO HE SAYS IN ROMANS 15....

THIS UNITY COMES FROM ABOVE

AND THEN IN EPHESIANS 4 HE SAYS...

NOW IT’S UP TO US TO MAINTAIN IT

AND WE HAVE TO WORK HARD AT THIS....WHY???

BECAUSE IT IS NOT IN OUR NATURE

UNDERSTAND THIS...

WHEN YOU COME TO KNOW CHRIST JESUS

YOUR SPIRIT IS REGENERATED

BUT YOUR FLESH IS NOT

AND THERE IS CONSTANT WAR AGAINST THE SPIRIT AND THE FLESH

IT’S THE SELF-CENTEREDNESS

AND THIS IS THE DEATH OF UNITY

AND SO PAUL SAYS....

WE HAVE TO WORK HARD AT MAINTAINING THIS UNITY

THE DEVIL IS WAITING AND LOOKING FOR A DOOR THAT HE CAN COME THROUGH

BE AWARE

GOD IS GETTING READY AND HAS ALREADY STARTED SOMETHING GREAT

BUT BE MINDFUL OF THE SCHEMES IN THE COMING MONTHS

STAND FIRM AND FIGHT FOR UNITY WITH YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS

AMEN?????

.........STAND TO YOUR FEET........

I WILL SAY THIS TO THE NEW LIFEBRIDGE CHURCH

I AM ALWAYS OPEN TO TALK TO

AND I AM ALWAYS WILLING TO LISTEN

MY DOOR IS ALWAYS OPEN FOR ANY CONCERNS OR OFFENSES THAT I OR ANYONE ELSE MAY CAUSE YOU

I’M HERE FOR YOU

WHATEVER YOU NEED

EVERY HEAD BOWED AND EYE CLOSED

IF YOU ARE HERE AND NEED PRAYER THIS MORNING

COME AND LET US PRAY WITH YOU

I JUST WANT TO END THIS MORNING WITH GIVING GOD PRAISE FOR THE SPIRIT OF UNITY THAT IS ALREADY HERE

IF YOU NEED PRAYER…WE ARE HERE TO PRAY WITH YOU

LET’S WORSHIP HIM
