Two Or Three In Jesus’ Name
April 20, 2018
“Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.”
-Matthew 18:19-20
There is most definitely power in prayer! Prayer is effective and it can turn around even the most impossible situations that we face in life for the good of those who love God! Even Jesus wanted us to ask him for things in prayer! Yet, have there ever been times in your life where you prayed and asked the Lord for something, but your prayer was not answered? You had all good intentions and prayed to the Lord with all the sincerity in your heart, but nothing happened and it brought you to a place of discouragement. Just know that the Lord loves you, he is for you, he hears you, and he is willing to answer your prayers! Maybe there is a more effective way of praying that you never knew about! Jesus revealed this mystery to us in scripture when he spoke about the supernatural power of prayer when two or three are gathered together to ask for anything in his name. Jesus states that where two or three are gathered in his name, he is with them! What a Powerful statement! And we can take that statement as the literal truth! There is no doubt about it! When Jesus says it, he means it! So if Jesus could say that he is present in the midst of two or three gathered together in his name, then I would think that he would most assuredly hear what we are asking him for in prayer because he is standing right there with us! And when we ask, Jesus affirms that we shall receive whatever we ask for by God the Father. So don’t be discouraged! Instead, make it your mission to find someone who is filled with the Holy Spirit, like-minded in faith and belief in Jesus Christ, who will be willing to pray with you and stand in agreement with you for whatever you are asking for in prayer! And I am sure the Lord will come through and answer your prayer because that is his promise to us in his Word – guaranteed!
