Pursuing God, Together

Unity is not easy for the church, but it’s a necessity for the blessings of God. We bring great delight to the domain of hell when we allow discord to exist between us and our brothers in Christ. Psalm 133:1-3 “Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity! It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron, running down on the collar of his robes! It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the mountains of Zion! For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life forevermore.” 1. The call to unity. Psalm 133:1 “Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!” We are family. John 1:12–13 “But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.” 1 John 3:1 “See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are….” 2. The source of unity. Psalm 133:2-3a “It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron, running down on the collar of his robes! It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the mountains of Zion!” a) It’s like the oil on Aaron. b) It’s like the dew of Hermon. 3. The purpose of unity. Psalm 133:3b “For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life forevermore.” - Unity is a gift of God to us. - Unity is a witness to a watching world.
