Disagreements are inevitable—whether in families, friendships, or even the church. As our daily prayer and devotional, taken from Paul's words in 1 Corinthians, reminds us, while differences of opinion will always exist, division doesn’t have to. Because we are united in Christ, we have the power to pursue unity, even in the midst of disagreement.

Unity is not about ignoring conflict or pretending everyone thinks the same. Instead, it’s about choosing grace over pride, peace over division, and Christ’s love over personal preference. The church in Corinth struggled with this, and so do we today. Yet Paul’s reminder is clear: our shared identity in Christ outweighs anything that could divide us.

Today's Bible Reading:

"I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought." – 1 Corinthians 1:10 (NIV)

Key Takeaways


Unity in the church begins with personal holiness—reflecting Christ in our own lives.


Disagreement is not the same as division; we can disagree and still walk in unity.


Paul’s call to unity isn’t just for the early church—it’s God’s will for believers today.


When tempted to let differences divide, we must remember that we are one family in Christ.

Let’s Pray Together

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of Your Word. Help us to pursue unity in our relationships and within the church. When disagreements arise, give us wisdom to respond with grace and humility. Remind us that we are one family, united in Christ, and called to reflect His love to the world. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Calls to Action


Ask God to show you one way you can promote unity in your church this week.


When conflict arises, pause and pray before responding.


Share this devotion with someone who needs encouragement in a season of division.
