Walk In Unity World


Ephesians 4

 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. Therefore He says: “When He ascended on high,
He led captivity captive,
And gave gifts to men.” (Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.)

11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— 16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
17 This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind, 18 having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart; 19 who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
20 But you have not so learned Christ, 21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: 22 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.25 Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another. 26 “Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, 27 nor give place to the devil. 28 Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need. 29 Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. 32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

 
We as children of God have been called to walk in unity. Together as brothers and sisters experiencing and enjoying the same Father, God.  Our spirits are to be filled with love, expressing love everywhere we go.  The world is mad right now, and it’s because we’re not seeking our truth, our heritage, and our calling. To walk this earth in joy, peace, and love.  God has His son back sitting at the right side of Him.  So however long it takes for us to hopefully get it together, He has the time.  We have been given spiritual gifts, gifts that are to be sought and trained.  Then given back through ministry, edifying our brother and King who died for us that we might live.  We are letting satan toss us to and fro into a state of misery and lashing it out on each other until sadness consumes us.  We are walking this day with our feelings and emotions on our shoulders and unchecked, because we haven’t been trained nor will train ourselves in the statutes and commandments of our bible.  By this, we are giving satan open target to kill, steal, and destroy us mentally and physically.  Then society, our doctors, psychiatrists, chemists and other higher ups try to impose a man-made pill on us hoping they can kill the effects from God and satan.  God says in His word we will be leveraged off by man, with man-made thoughts that will leave us grasping at the wind.  He also states that the world’s wisdom is foolishness to Him.  So why don’t we pick up our bibles, like we have been called to do in love.  Then seek His truth and walk in unity.

 

Blessings to you all as we unite together for God
