Why Unite......... |
|
|
|
|
|
We were all created to help each other as a family. Everyone has great value, purpose and special gifts to share. Takes those gifts with a united mission to serve Jesus and share in our local communities...that's God's Kingdom at work in a powerful way. Build people up, and love one another. The benefits and strengths overcome any resistance.
“Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace. 4 For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future. 5 There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 and one God and Father, who is over all and in all and living through all.
Ephesians 4

→ Strengthens the Community
|
|
|
|

|
Each of us has been given special gifts. (Ephesians 4:7), when the body of Christ comes together in uniting each others gifts, His body becomes more whole than fragmented. United together in our gifts helps reach and save others and unites us as a community.

→ More Needs of the Community are met
|
|
|
|
|
|
The needs of people in our communities are great. More gifts and more resources increase the capacity to help those in need. Everyone has a purpose to reach their brothers or sisters in Christ. A purpose that may contribute to give back in ways that will reach those that are homeless and lost, to reach those that are broken, neglected, and abused. To reach people as a friend who have no sense of hope and/or direction in their life. United together in serving others in Jesus name demonstrates Christ love in action. |

→ United Prayer is Powerful
|
|
|
|

True healing and restoration can only come through prayer. When we come together in intercessory prayer to God for our community families, city leaders, church pastors, children of our next generation and the lost. God hears those prayers and is faithful to those who are faithful in doing what is right in His sight. A united group of believers in prayer is a powerful force and wonderful experience to be a part of. Partners in prayer for others KNOW firsthand the power of prayer. I encourage you too join in a city united prayer meeting or become a individual prayer partner. |

→ Lives are Restored
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Restoration begins with the simple understanding that God is the source of true healing and restoration. As God's children, joining together in truth and spirit, He wants us to live a life of freedom in accordance to His ways, a life that gives peace in times of trouble, to give wisdom and encouragement. To help restore a broken marriage, restore and help in raising a family, restore in the unsettledness’ of a person’s purpose, hope and self-worth. Restored and set free from anger, bitterness, and hate caused by physical, mental and sexual abuse. Restored to a healthy understanding what true Love really means in God's eyes. Restored to a life on track in the balance of wholeness lead by God in the areas of physically, financially, spiritually, emotionally, and relationally together. Working together in harmony and peace as His Body of Christ. |
