In Matthew 18:19 the Apostle tells us that if just two of us can agree on a prayer request God will do it. “For where two or three or three are gathered in my name, there I am in the midst of them” (Matt 18:20). Wow, where just two or three come together in unity to call out to God he is there in their very presence! With God one can put a thousand to flight but two can put ten thousand to flight (Deut 32:30).

Unity and the prayer of agreement are so powerful. Praying in agreement is not just everyone praying about the same thing but doing it in perfect accord, perfect harmony and in unity.

God loves unity in his people, it allows him to work, to bless: “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! For there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore” (Ps 133:1, 3). The disciples prayed in one accord in Acts 4:24-37 and just look at the results, the house was shaken and they were filled with the Holy Spirit, they preached with boldness, thousand were added to the church and they had all things in common.

Is God telling us something here?
