=UNITY=

"Alone we can do si little; together we can do so much."
-Hellen Keller (Author)

*Psalms 133:1-3
"1 How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!

+Behold: to observe; look at; see.
+We want to see and experience the enjoyable, likable, and friendly atmosphere.
+There are times our unity is being tested because of our differences, uniqueness, and flaws.

How to maintain UNITY?
U-nderstanding
*Colossians 3:12-13
"12 Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
13 Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

N-urturing
*Proverbs 27:17
"17 As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.

*Proverbs 27:5-6
"5 Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
6 Wounds from a friend can be trusted, but an enemy multiplies kisses.

I-mparting
Impart: to pass on, transmit, or bestow.
*Romans 1:11
"11 I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong--
T-ime
T-reasure
T-alent

*1 Corinthians 12:4-11
"4 There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord.
6 There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men.
7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.
8 To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit,
9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,
10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues.
11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines.

T-ime (availability)
*Hebrews 10:25
"25 Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching."

Y-akap (our love for one another)
*John 13:34-35
"34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
35 By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.""

*1 Peter 4:8
"8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins."

2 It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron's beard, down upon the collar of his robes.

+God's Anointing
> God's Presence, Favor and Power.
> You are empowered and protected by the Spirit of the Lord to perform your calling.

"Anointing overflows."

"Overflowing God's favor and manifestation of His power."

3 It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the LORD bestows his blessing, even life forevermore.

+Life-giving

"Harmony among God's people is life-giving."
