God's Gift Of Unity (Psalm 133)

Songs for the Journey: Sermons on the Psalms of Accents
Reading: Psalm 133

Psalm 133 paints a beautiful picture is of God’s people dwelling together in unity. David viewed such unity as God’s blessing from above! In context it is most likely referring to the unity that resulted from David’s ascension to the throne of Israel. Up until that point is Israel’s history unity had proved very difficult to attain, & as history continued the unity proved impossible to maintain. However, as Christians we do not only read this Psalm looking back at a beautiful moment in Israel’s history. We read it looking forward to a lasting unity that has already been initiated & one day will be fully realised in Christ. Christ is the only King who can unite God's people forever!
