Matthew 18:19 (New International Version)
"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.
Agreements have changed the world and continues to change the world in many ways. People continue to seek agreements in many ways concerning peace, happiness, wealth, success, energy, power, creativity etc. Nothing successful ever happens without the power of agreement. Without agreement, families would not exist, businesses would go under, goals would not be accomplished, people would live isolated lives.Yes, without the power of agreement people would never reach their full potential causing them to be ordinary at best and failures at minimum. There is power when two people become one on something.Iron sharpens iron so one man sharpens another. There is power in agreement.
David sang in Psalm 133, about how good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron's beard, down upon the collar of his robes.It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the LORD bestows his blessing, even life for evermore. God is a God of agreement and respects agreement. In the beginning of creation we see that, the holy trinity (God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit), always moves in harmony and unity. This was the agreement : Gen 1:26-Then God said, Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground. He fashioned man to have dominion over all the earth through the power of agreement.
So the truth remains undiluted today, that if two shall agree on earth about anything and ask in Jesus 's name, it will be done for them by our Father in heaven. The power comes from two individuals agreeing on something through prayer in Jesus name. Unity is power.
Bible Study:

Will Bring Victory:
Read Exodus 17:12
Here in this verse, Israel defeated Amalek while Moses held up the rod of God in his hand. When Moses held up his hand, Israel overcame and when his hand went down, Amalek overcame.

Here Moses needed help as we all do sometimes.
