Pulling Together

I thank you, Father, that you grant my husband and me to live in such mutual harmony and such full sympathy with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus that together, we may unanimously with united hearts and one voice praise and glorify God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Romans 15:5 & 6)

I'm hoping that you are beginning to meditate on these scriptures we are praying and you are being given some spiritual insights. Some Holy Spirit inspired AHA!'s. Here are some of mine.

unanimously--that means everyone is moving in the same direction. We all put our strength, our force toward the same goal. We are in accord and all in favor of the same thing. Putting our power behind a common goal. No one is dissenting or putting up road blocks or dragging his feet trying to thwart progress on purpose or through negligence.
united hearts--agreeing in our intentions
one voice--each saying the same thing. Agreeing with our words--making our words agree with God's Word.

I am seeing possibilities in this scripture such as you and your husband
1. Being united in Christian faith
2. Being united in raising your children
3. Being united in the goals for your life together
a. your mission
b. your finances
c. your life view

John 15:8 says we glorify God when we produce fruit or beneficial results. I think the possibilities I have listed above would qualify as fruit. As you let the Holy Spirit inhabit your imagination concerning this scripture, He will give you images that are especially just for you and your husband and your life together. Remember, there are no limits in God.

Be Constant in Prayer. (Romans 12:12)
