080305_Prevailing Over The Spirit of Strife

"Behold, how good and how pleasant [it is] for brethren to dwell together in unity!  [It is] like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, [even] Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;  As the dew of Hermon, [and as the dew] that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, [even] life for evermore".(Psalms 133:1-3)

Hence Jesus prayer for His disciples and the church "My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one. I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me." (John 17:20-23) , provided we overcome and rise above the enemies called strife(Proverbs 13:10, Proverb 21:9), we can stand together as one in the unity of the spirit and access and benefit on earth every spiritual blessings secured for us in Christ Jesus without fail. (Ephessians 1:3)
