"In Our Midst" by Pastor H. Lamar Smith
Christ is in our midst to guide our asking and our praying. He is in the middle of what we ask of His and our Father. He stirs our imagination. He offers us vision. To pray “in His name” is to pray with His prior permission and authority (John 14:13; 15:16; 16;23). He loves to help us form our petitions to the Father. His Spirit is doing that when He prays through us. Ask Jesus what you should be asking for and then see what happens.
“Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst.” (Matthew 18:19-20 (NASB))

- Gathered In His Name
The gathering of Christians to worship can and should be life transforming. Christians often quote, “For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst.” May we remember that He is not gathered with us to add one to the head count. He is there as the focal point of our worship, the One around Whom we gather. He is there as our contact with the Father. He makes the transcendent One immanent; He brings communion and intimacy to the Ancient of Days. This makes the community of believers different from all communities on earth.
“For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst.” (Matthew 18:20)
