In recent years, we have seen that disasters such as plagues, wars, famines, earthquakes, and floods are more and more serious around the world. Especially in 2021, disasters are occurring more frequently and more seriously than before. Many people are concerned about disasters that may befall them, and they want to be protected by God during disasters, but few seek what God’s will is when disasters occur.

The Lord Jesus said, “Again I say to you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the middle of them” (Mat 18:19-20). In our lives, we all have such experience: If one does work by himself, though he has worked hard, he still cannot achieve perfect and there is deviation in his work. However, when we are of one heart and rely on God together, we can gain the Holy Spirit’s guidance easily. Our minds will be broadened and we can make up for each other’s shortcomings. Thus, the results of the work are much better than that done by one. Also, we can learn to put aside ourselves and modestly listen to other’s good opinions and not be arrogant or self-righteous, which is beneficial for our entry into life. These are the benefits brought by serving in coordination. The Bible verses about Cooperation selected below will help us know how to serve in coordination and be of one mind.

But whoever shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
