Waxing Stronger in Unity

Daily Scripture Threshing for Today, Wednesday, January 28, 2026

Today's Texts: Psalm 133:1-3

Key Verse: Psalm 133:3 (ESV) — “For there the Lord has commanded the blessing, life forevermore.”

Unity is oneness of purpose, mutual respect, and harmony among believers. It's not uniformity or forced agreement, nor is it about avoiding conflict. God's intention is that believers reflect Christ's love through unity. In John 17:21-23, our Lord, Jesus, prayed for unity among His followers so that the world would know He's the Father's sent One.

The unity taught and given by the Lord is about shared mission, bearing with one another, and showcasing God's love. It is not being uniform or seeing and saying the same things; but it is harmony that commands blessing and peace even when saying different things. It is being different without being indifferent.

In a year of waxing very strong, division can only scatter what unity is supposed to accelerate. To wax stronger in unity is to prefer others above self for God's commanded blessing. We must embrace humility and prefer others' needs to genuinely unlock God's commanded blessing, and accelerate purpose.

God commands where brethren dwell together in unity. The life and love of Christ flow from relational oneness rather than division. Waxing stronger in unity this year means healing breaches, forgiving freely, celebrating collective advancement. Unity multiplies what division divides.

True unity grows when self surrenders to shared purpose. To wax stronger in unity is to become one even as Father and Son are one. There are miracles reserved for united hearts, outpourings for the undivided. This year, your unity will birth unusual manifestations.

When offence divides and competition fragments, choose reconciliation. Waxing stronger in unity positions your circle for God's dew of blessing. Your oneness will testify of Christ's prayer answered among you.

Action Steps: Today, reconcile with one person. Text 3 people in your circle: "I bless your progress." Plan one intentional unity activity this month. Watch God's commanded blessing flow.

Quote for the Day: "Unity commands what division cancels. As you wax stronger in oneness, God's forever blessing will overflow." — (Simon Olatunji #quotablequote)

Let Us Pray: Dear Lord Jesus, make us one even as You and Father are one. Heal every breach and offence in our midst. Command Your blessing upon our unity. Let the world know You sent us by our love. In Your mighty name, Lord Jesus, Amen.
