Jesus prayed the following prayer to our Heavenly Father just before He went to The Cross. I would therefore suggest that we, as His body left on this earth, need to heed its message seriously.
“I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me.” John 17:20-23
The story told by Greig Whittaker in this video demonstrates how God answers the prayer Jesus prayed for unity within the body. God uses the most unlikely candidates – those totally submitted to Him. Greig Whittaker made himself available, what about you?
It is often only when we are forced onto our backs that we look up, to God.
