“Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” Matthew 18:19-20
From a Daily Devotional with AW Tozer:
A miraculous work of grace operates in the life of every sinner who is soundly converted and born again. It is the conscious transplantation of the divine nature into his heart through faith in Jesus Christ. It is such an overwhelming experience that he is likely to be explosively happy. He might cry out as Jacob of old did, “God is in this place, and I didn’t know it.”
What happened? What made the difference? What had been restored to him? It was not the presence of God, but rather the conscious presence of God. What makes heaven what it is? The unhindered and unsullied presence of God. What makes hell what it is? The absence of a consciousness of the presence of God.
That is the difference between a prayer meeting and the dance hall. The unsullied presence of God fills heaven and earth, contains heaven and earth and is present everywhere. In the prayer meeting, some little old lady kneels and says, “O Jesus, where two or three are gathered there Thou art in the midst.” God is there. In the dance hall, they would be embarrassed if the presence of God were to be manifest.
My conversion is the implantation of the divine life in this repenting sinner.
Let's pray daily for our nation, family and relationship with God. The spoken word is powerful. God spoke the world into existence and in John 1 we read that the Word was with God and the Word was God. Let's speak the Word over our land.
