The unity of spirit, soul, and body that Christ (in His humanity) had with His Father in heaven, is His prayer for each of His children too. The love and intimate communion that Christ (in His humanity) demonstrated and enjoyed with His Father, is the depth of love and fellowship that He desires to have with each of His own. We are to be deeply in love with our Lord Jesus in principle and in purpose, in thought, word, and deed, just as He was with His own Father when He walked the dusty roads of Israel. He did only those things that He heard from His Father and His prayer was always, "Your will be done so that You may be glorified." But not only does He desire a vertical oneness of each of His children with Himself, but He also yearns that we have a horizontal oneness with our brothers and sisters in the Body of Christ; that we become one in principle and purpose, one in thought and word and deed, one in faith and doctrine, one in love and hope. He desires that individually and collectively The Church Of God, which is His Body, demonstrates the glory of the indwelling Spirit of Christ by means of an outward demonstration of a holy character and a godly life, full of grace and truth. John 17:22 And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: Our United Prayer:
Loving Father, thank You for covering us with Your righteousness and giving us the Holy Spirit to guide us into all truth and to teach us to live godly in Christ Jesus. Keep us, we pray, in communion with Yourself. Keep us United in fellowship with the Spirit so that we may be bound together in Unity with the body of Christ day by day, in the bond of peace and in godly fellowship. In Jesus' name we Pray, AMEN.

Prayer
We are a growing group of people praying daily for and with others. We were led to start an online ministry to deliver what is needed more now than ever, a place where you can go to easily to submit a prayer request or requests involving others to pray for your needs. The Power of Prayer. Matthew 18:20- For where two or more come together in my name, there I am among them. You are never alone in prayer. The Power Of Numbers Praying.
We ask you to pray for this ministry, for its success in helping others in need of prayer. Archives
