Are we laboring in vain?

Unless the Lord builds the house we labor in vain. ...

As believers in Christ Jesus we must come together in "unity" based on His building the house - not our plans, our thoughts, our innovations; which are based upon man's wisdom. For man's wisdom is foolishness to God. He is the foundation on which we must stand not man's good intentions. It is only in and through His grace and truth, by the power of the Holy Spirit, that true spiritual unity can be achieved - we must earnestly and wholeheartedly seek after His way and His way alone.

Holy Spirit we seek Your powerful presence...not our weak and inadequate man-based efforts.
Lord we are so undeserving, how we lack strong, enduring and steadfast faith and trust in You.
Oh that we would not be complacent as the world of man calls evil good and good evil…
That Your Light of Grace and Truth would shine brightly through us...
May we stand firm in believing that You truly are who You say that You are...
Fill this land with the power and glory of Your Presence and bring Your unity to Your church…
