A Scripture and a Prayer: “God Is With Us”

“I will put my dwelling place among you, and I will not abhor you. I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be my people.” (Leviticus 26:11-12)

Prayer:

Jesus, You said that where two or more are gathered in Your name, that You are there in their midst. And while this speaks of our need to gather, Your presence is with us always as believers, and that’s because when we come to faith in You, that You place within us Your holy temple. Therefore, Lord, come close and help me walk in Your ways and no longer according to my own ways. Make me a vessel of honor, a vessel where You dwell and move mightily on my behalf, and on behalf of Your people. And let me know and walk in this surety, that You are my strong tower, my refuge. Therefore, help me not be afraid, and not to fear, because what can any man or woman do to me, seeing that I believe in You. And this I ask in Jesus’s name. AMEN
