Editor,

Revival fires started springing up all across our county. Why? Because we came together in one mind and one accord – that’s called unity.

The best of all plans can be destroyed if we lack unity. Where there is division plans cannot succeed. This is the reason Satan does every thing he can to cause divisions among Christians.

Jesus made a profound statement in John 17:20-23, By our unity the world would know that we are his disciples. God is calling the body of Christ to a great awakening. Unity will bring souls into the Kingdom.

The ENOUGH rally was started and succeeded out of a passion driven heart. A passion to see lived changed not dead. Drug dealers are mostly trying to make a living or support their habits. Drug users have been caught in a trap, and most of them hate where their life styles has taken them.

God said if we would love the lost with a passion driven love like he did we would take up our cross and see revival. When unsaved people observe the body loving one another and working together in unity they are observing the love and passion of God. Without unity the church is powerless.

Denominations had nothing to do with Jesus going to the cross. It was his unity with the father set as an example for us, his body, to work together. As we put our resources together everyone has something to offer.

John 17:21 says that they all may be one as you father are one in me and I in you that they also may be one in us. Jesus said that even evil men can find success in unity. Think about the power available to the body of Christ as we press into unity souls.

We are not building a church; we are building a Kingdom. Genesis 11:6 God spoke about his people and said indeed the people are one and they all have one language now nothing that they purpose to do will be with held from them, this was Gods own words of man kind in unity. Unity brings incredible power and nothing is impossible to them that love the Lord and walk according to his purpose. We must press together. See you at the next ENOUGH countywide unity meeting.
