Kingdom Unity for Kingdom MenНамуна
The unity we strive for is not just a unity for its own sake. It is a unity based on our common purpose, which is giving testimony of the one true God.
Soldiers involved in a battle don’t care about the color of the person next to them, as long as they are shooting in the same direction. When individuals or communities face challenging circumstances, they need a unified approach. United we stand, divided we fall is not just a catchphrase to post on social media or put on the bumper of your car. It’s truth. Yet, as we see through the cultural events unfolding these days, if this truth and these values aren’t passed down to the next generations, we will continue to face chaos and distress.
When men fail to transfer the faith down to the next generation, we wind up with young people who do not know the Lord, His heart, or His rule. A culture will begin to disintegrate when their worship turns away from God and toward idols. The idols might be money, power, prestige or even education—but whatever they are, these idols cannot take the place of God. No idol can save or rescue you when you need it most.
When God is no longer put first, He will do what He always did in Scripture and throughout history. He will back off. And we will reap the consequences brought on when we marginalize Him.

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!
