The Profound Power of Unity and Obedience
Join Dr. Edith Davis as she dives into the essential, non-optional nature of unity for the body of Christ. She begins by celebrating God's love for diversity—seen everywhere from tropical rainforests to deserts—and explains that this diversity is a reflection of life at its most prolific. True unity in the Church, she asserts, is found not in conformity, but in universal acceptance of Christ Jesus as both Savior and Lord.
This powerful teaching covers critical areas for every believer:
-- The Call to Lordship: Not everyone wants Jesus to be their Lord, but obedience to Him is always for our good. -- Checking Your Foundation: Divisiveness, strife, and envy are "works of the enemy," which should prompt a check of one's salvation, as being saved should mean operating in the Fruits of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, meekness, and self-control). -- The True Meaning of Meekness: It is not weakness, but power and authority under submission to the Lord God, Holy Spirit. -- Supernatural Love: We are commanded to love one another, our neighbors, and our enemies—a feat that is supernatural and requires the power of the Holy Spirit. -- The Example of Stephen: The first martyr's prayer for his persecutors led directly to the conversion and mighty ministry of Saul (Paul) of Tarsus, demonstrating the powerful consequences of obedience and love. -- Walking in Authority: As sons and daughters of the King, believers have been given the authority and power to rule and reign and to destroy the works of the enemy, including sickness, disease, lack, and poverty. -- The Necessity of Intimacy: To walk in unity and power, we must prioritize intimacy with Christ Jesus—spending personal time with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit to feed our own spirit from the overflow.
Dr. Davis concludes with a call to action to walk unified and be about the Father's business, warning that we "cannot afford to be offended, period."
