February 26, 2020 DCLM Daily Manna Devotional :- Unity In Righteousness

- , , ,
--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

February 26, 2020 DCLM Daily Manna Devotional :- Unity In Righteousness

TOPIC: Unity In Righteousness
TEXT: John 17:20-26
20. Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word

21. That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one;
23. I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
24. Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me; for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
25. O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee; but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
26. And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it; that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
KEY VERSE:
“That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.” – (John 17:21)
MESSAGE:
The byword at the top of echelon of the mainstream Christendom today is “ecumenism”. Ecumenism is a derivative of the Greek work “oikoueme”, which denotes universality, in this case, of Christianity. The church today is desirous of unity in the body of Christ. Since the Reformation Schism of the 1500s and the later splintering of the Protestant Movement into different denominations, there exist today a new spirit of reconciliation, forgiveness and fellowship. The slogan of “ecumenism” is “service unites but doctrine divides.”
DCLM Daily Manna 26 February 2020: All denominations are expected to downplay biblical doctrines that divide them in the first instance. Consequently, a mishmash of watered-down Christian standards are foisted upon hapless souls. Jesus Christ as the Saviour is expected to be the unifying factor of ecumenism. According to the ecumenists, faith in Jesus supersedes all the doctrines of Christ.
In the valedictory priestly prayers of our Lord Jesus Christ for His burgeoning Church, He specifically prayed for the sanctification of each member. Genuine sanctification engenders unity. When each member of the church is born-again and sanctified (made holy), there emerges a homogenous existence amongst members of the Church. God and Christ are holy. The prayer of our Lord Jesus Christ was to subsume the Church into that holiness, such that there is a common characteristic in the whole.
Every Christian owes himself an abiding duty of being truly peculiar and unique, a single-minded model of Christ. Our Saviour was united with the father and the Spirit because He was absolutely faithful and obedient to the divine cause. True unity amongst believers thrive only when the heart is contrite and broken in righteousness.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
United in righteousness we stand; united in unrighteousness we fall.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Luke 23-24
