Matthew 18:19-20 – Jesus promised, “If two of you agree on anything they ask, it shall be done for them by My Father in heaven. For wherever only two or three gather in My Name, I Am there in the midst of them.”
Lord, You’ve promised to be with us always, but are You also promising greater power and effectiveness in our prayers when we agree on what we’re asking?
Holy Scriptures often call us, not to sameness, but to unity, as One in You, which becomes a blessing to ourselves and an influence on the whole world. Is this promise meant to be an incentive for siblings in Christ to get along?
Lord, forgive us for our fault-finding, fear, and envy toward one
another! Give us Your prayers to pray – for ourselves, one another, and the
world – in unity with Your will, in the love and power of Your Name.
Mary Harwell Sayler from book, Kneeling on the Promises of God
