Make Us One is not just a song but a declaration for the body of Christ to be unified as one body. This was always His intention and plan. In John 17 after He prayed for His disciples, Jesus then prayed for “those who will believe” in Him through their word.‬ I find it sobering that the prayer Jesus prayed just before He was betrayed and arrested at Gethsemane was for us to be one as He is one with the Father. For us to function properly as the body of Christ we all must work together in love and unity. In the world today we see so much division. The political, racial, and economic division is all over the news and social media. For the world to truly see the love of Christ, the church must take its place as one body in Him. We must set aside our pride and offences and be made one, “Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.” Colossians‬ ‭3:12-15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬. We are called to carriers of His glory and to demonstrate His love to the world. We do this by becoming the church that Christ intended, to be made one. John 17:23“I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.” Based on the song Make Us One by Chris Quilala, Ran Jackson, Ricky Jackson, Joshua Silverberg.
