REFLECT
Another word for fellowship is companionship, and friendship. Unity and being of one accord is essential for the Church. Different opinions and mindsets often divide mankind. So how could we ever be of one accord? The answer is the Holy Spirit. We share the wonderful things of the Spirit, via The Holy Spirit. In Him we are knit together and focused on one purpose. Think of it like a sports team without a head coach; someone would need to assume that position in order for the team to operate on one accord.
APPLY
Q: How can we share in fellowship and become one mind in Christ?
Q: Are you tuned into the Spirit or are you latched onto your own personal interests and desires?
Q: If you or someone you know is having a debate with another believer, always raise the question of Unity in the Spirit. Ask both parties how this benefits the kingdom of God.

PRAY
"Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy."
Father with so many different backgrounds, opinions, and problems, the division seems like too much to overcome. But by the power of the Holy Spirit we can be unified and focused on one thing; the only solution to the fall and sin: our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Let your Spirit move us in one accord and complete the mission you have given us.
