Ministry Of the Word (MOW): True Spirituality
Improving our Spiritual Understanding
Memory Verse
“And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 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” (John 17:22-23).

In John chapter 17, Jesus Christ prayed earnestly for all true believers to be one with Him as He is one with His Father.
Without Jesus Christ, also called the Word (John 1:1), our lives can never be complete. The Scripture says: ‘And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power’ (Col 2:10).
In Christ Jesus, God wants all his children to be one with him in thoughts, words, actions and purpose. Jesus was completely one with his Father. He tells us that in the book of John, where He stated: ‘I and my Father are one’ (John 10:30).
The only thing that can prevent man becoming one with God in Christ is sin. The eyes of God are too pure to behold sin (Hab 1:13), in as much as He loves sinners.
We need to live daily with the consciousness of being one with Christ and enveloped in God’s glory. Jesus specifically prayed to His Father to achieve our oneness as revealed by apostle John:
“Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; 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 17:20-21).
To grow spiritually requires daily meditation with the word of God (Joshua 1:8) and seeking first the kingdom of God and its righteousness (Matthew 6:33). It also requires total fear of God, and spiritual training in the word of God: “Train yourself to be godly”(1Tim 4:7-8 NIV).
Prayer
Dear Father, thank you for making me ONE with you through your beloved Son Jesus Christ. It’s amazing that we share in your glory. Thank you Father, in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.
