Let's lift up Ploshire's grandson who is back in prison. "Remember those in prison as if you were together with them" (Heb 13:3). Praying for his comfort, strength, and transformation. Trusting God's mercy! 
Hello everyone! Let's lift up our fellow members in prayer. 
who's discerning heaviness & oppression. "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood" (Eph 6:12). Anoint with oil, pray, & trust God's deliverance (James 5:14). Praying for peace & freedom! 
Let's lift up 
For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future. There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father, who is over all and in all and living through all.
—Ephesians 4:4-6 NLT
Unity is more than just getting along. At the core of maintaining unity and keeping the bond of peace (Ephesians 4:3), there is ONE core reality. Paul emphasizes this core reality by using "one" seven times. These seven immutable and essential elements of our faith include the "one Spirit" — the Holy Spirit of God who is at work in us. We must never let the Spirit of God become relegated to a place of diminished importance. We must, however, realize that just as the "one Lord" animates and defines the "one hope," the "one faith," and the "one baptism," so also the "one Spirit" empowers and defines the nature of our being the "one body" as we seek to honor the "one God."
Yahweh, you are the one God. I commit to love you with all of my heart, my soul, my mind, and my strength. I praise you for revealing yourself as Father, Son, and Spirit. I thank you for the Lord Jesus, the Son, the basis of my Christian faith, the source of my hope, and the focus of my baptism. I thank you for being present in me as the Spirit, my connection to your body, the church, and to you. May what I think and how I live bring honor to you as the one God. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
