21 Days of Praying for the Church

DAY 18

United as One Leadership

Pause & Reflect

You can move forward more effectively when you’re united as one. Even in the simple things — like successfully choosing a place to eat or coming around a huge group of fans who all support the same team — unity creates something special. When the importance of the work rises, so does the importance of being united as one.

Jesus prayed that very prayer so that He and the Father would reflect that ideal. Now, consider the leadership of your church. God has appointed them to guide you through the Holy Spirit into ministry and mission. You need them to be one — not just with one another, but with Jesus and the Father — so you can catch the wind of the Holy Spirit. Don’t forget to pray for your leadership. May they be united as one!

Speak a prayer
today that God would allow your church leadership to be one, just as Jesus and the Father are one.

JOHN 17:21

that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.
