Get Rid of Division

Colossians 3:13
Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
1 John 4:20
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
We can’t break up the families God has brought together. God created Adam and he didn’t want Adam to be alone, so he created Eve. Some people in your family may not be as you say “blood-related,” but you consider them family so, if we say we love one another why do we create beef and division amongst each other?
God will bring families together because he knows who you need in your life. We can’t let the devil cause separation between our families. Now, if someone is trying to live in the world it may have to be division, according to the word, but why not try to help save them where you can? We have to get rid of the division God does not approve of, and we have to forgive one another. God told us to check on and encourage one another and he said that for a reason.
God has to be Number One, in the center, and we have to be rooted in Jesus. We can’t hate our brother, but say we love God. Now, if they are living in sin you have to hate/correct the sin, but still love them.
We have to be the family God is calling us to be! The body needs every single part, and if a part is lacking the body will not fully function. Draw close, forgive, help, encourage, give, etc., to your family. The devil will try to cause separation, but we can’t let him win.
