Father,

Thank You for Jesus, the Head of the Body! We submit ourselves to You as one body and one Spirit, just as there is one hope to which You have called us according to Ephesians 4:4. We acknowledge that there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism; there is one God and Father of all, who is Lord of all, works through all, and is in all according to Your Word. We ask that as the body of Christ, as God's chosen ones, holy and dearly loved, we would put on compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, bearing with one another and forgiving one another, and that we would put on love, the perfect bond of unity, according to Colossians 3:12-14. We desire that the word of Christ would dwell richly among us. We renounce division in Jesus name and any works of darkness that would seek to harm Your church. We acknowledge You, Lord, as the Builder of the house, that it not be built in vain. Have Your way in Your Body, Jesus, that we would all be one as You prayed in John 17:21. In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.
