Spirit of Unity

Spirit of unity – Rom 15:5-6

Vs 5 -  Paul then prays or releases a thought that the God who brings endurance and encouragement give a spirit of unity among each one of us.  Unity has both a divine and natural source.  God will give us the desire and then we have to work it out.  In this way we are following Christ.  Christ always worked in perfect unity with the Father and the Spirit.  They are our role model in life.

Vs 6 – This unity creates one heart and mouth which in turn glorifies God.  The life of the Christian is one of glorification of the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  Our theme song should be, “In my life Lord, be glorified.”  We are to have speech and mouths of righteousness.  Our actions should always follow our words.  The world is looking for role models and mentors of righteousness.  There are few who do this in a consistent manner.  We should one of those who do.
