Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder? He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men. Job 39:19, 21.
The spasmodic, fitful movements of some who claim to be Christians are well represented by the work of strong but untrained horses. When one pulls forward, another pulls back, and at the voice of the master, one plunges ahead, and the other stands immovable. If men will not move in concert in the great and grand work for this time, there will be confusion. It is not a good sign when men refuse to unite with their brethren, and prefer to act alone.... If men wear the yoke of Christ, they cannot pull apart: they will draw with Christ. Some ... pull with all the power that God has given them, but they have not yet learned that they should not pull alone. Instead of isolating themselves, let them draw in harmony with their fellow laborers. Unless they do this, their activity will work at the wrong time and in the wrong way. They will often work counter to that which God would have done, and thus their work is worse than wasted.—Testimonies for the Church 9:258.
God is the embodiment of benevolence, mercy, and love. Those who are truly connected with Him, cannot be at variance with one another. His Spirit ruling in the heart will create harmony, love, and unity.—Testimonies for the Church 5:28.
Jesus has made it possible for you to accept His love, and in happy co-operation with Him to work under its fragrant influence.—Testimonies for the Church 9:50.
