Daily Reflection: One of the most vital aspects of the kingdom of God is the unity that exists amongst the believers within it. When this unity begins to fade, the power entrusted to God’s family can be negatively impacted. In today’s reading, Jesus highlights a few compelling truths about the importance of keeping unity intact and encouraging the ministry of other followers of Christ. Jesus makes note that “those who are not against him are for him.” In other words, there is no neutrality in the kingdom of God – you’re in the family, or you’re not. Thus, the importance of “being at peace” with one another is such a vital piece of the kingdom. To be a part of God’s kingdom is to be a part of a robust, united family that builds one another up.
Daily Demonstration: Unity is an essential quality of anything that succeeds in bringing God’s goodness to earth. Observe the different areas of your life today. Is there unity in your family? Is there unity in your friendship? Is there unity in ministry relationships? Do you feel unity between yourself or God? If the answer to any of these questions is “no,” make efforts to create unity today, starting with asking for God’s help to do so.

The word “family” can mean many different things to different people. Often, when people speak of family, they mean their blood relatives, specifically those with whom they live. When Christians speak of family, we also refer to God’s family, his ekklesia, or “church.” When we enter God’s kingdom, we become family with one another, forging a bond that transcends blood everything. We are all brought together into God’s family.
