Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which you were indeed called in one body. And be thankful. (Col. 3:12-15)

God calls Christians to be united despite our differences of opinion. This requires believers to love and respect one another. Distrust, fear, and unforgiveness are common problems among Muslim background believers in Oman. Like the rest of us, Omani believers have trouble getting along with each other at times and need to learn how to forgive one another as God has commanded us to do. God loves unity and so we must work towards it and pray for it. 

Prayer: O God of Peace, we pray for our precious brothers and sisters in Oman. Thank You for choosing them and making them holy and beloved. Thank You that some of them have the courage to meet together in small groups. Help them to put on compassionate hearts of kindness, humility, meekness, and patience. May they bear with one another, forgiving one another as You have forgiven them. And above all, may they put on love that there may be perfect harmony and unity for the sake of Jesus’ name in Oman. Use their unity to be a strong witness to unbelievers. Let the peace of Christ rule in their hearts so that they may be united as one body, giving thanks together for Your ever-constant and unfailing love for them. Amen. 

Worship with us!: Make Us One by Jesus Culture. May the Omani church be united and give Jesus the glory!
