Kingdom Unity for Kingdom Men

DAY 1 OF 3

Everybody’s talking about unity these days, but what does it really mean?

Unity isn’t just about getting along; it’s about getting things done. We’ll never experience a movement of kingdom men rising in our nation until we have kingdom men relating to each other in the body of Christ in an authentic, mutually honoring manner. 

Racial reconciliation isn’t just about playing a video of an ethnic preacher in your white church on Sunday, or vice versa. Neither is it about reading books that deal with racial injustice and posting online that you did. While those things are good, they—in and of themselves—are not unity. 

Unity takes place when people join together with a oneness of purpose. Unity means working together in harmony toward a shared vision and goal. It involves doing justice together, not just talking about it. And unity isn’t uniformity or sameness. Just as the Godhead is made up of three distinct persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—each is unique in personhood and yet at the same time one in essence. Unity reflects a oneness that does not negate individuality. 

We see God’s creative variety displayed in the different shapes, colors and styles of humanity. Each of us, in one way or another, is unique.

Unity occurs when we combine our unique strengths and skills as we head toward a common goal. It is the sense that the thing we are gathered for and moving toward is bigger than our individual preferences. That common goal is manifesting God’s kingdom on earth.

What can you do to increase kingdom unity in your world?

Kingdom Unity for Kingdom Men

Unity is a popular topic these days, but many who call for unity are not asking the important question: what is unity for? Why does God want His people to experience unity, and what is that unity based upon? In these devotions by best-selling author Tony Evans, he explores why unity is so important for those who want to dedicate themselves to God’s kingdom and rise up as kingdom men!
