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 us walk in Your ways and no longer according to our own ways. Make us vessels of honor, vessels where You dwell and move mightily on our behalf. And let us know and walk in this surety, that You are our strong tower and refuge. Therefore, help us not be afraid, and not to fear, because what can any man or woman do to us seeing that we believe in You. And this I ask in Jesus’s name. AMEN
