Now I beg you, brothers, through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
1 Corinthians 1:10 World English Bible
Reflection
Divided posture within faith communities often weakens the witness of believers when engaging with civic leaders and surrounding neighbours. When those who lead and serve choose quiet deference over personal ambition, their shared witness carries greater weight and integrity. Petitions can seek a spirit of gentle cooperation among spiritual leaders, encouraging hearts that willingly defer to one another. May mutual respect mark every gathering, fostering genuine harmony that radiates outward into local towns and cities.
Prayer
Pray for unity and humility within the body of Christ, that leaders and members alike would walk in surrendered hearts.
