any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven? Matthew 18:19
My daughter has lost some pearls that I gave her that was a gift from her deceased father to me. Do you believe if you and I agree they will be brought back to her ,,quickly? I do and I will agree that it be done..if you will. Don't you just love to see God do miracles for us?

GailleeO thank you too. God watches over his word to perform it.
Miracles are for the unbeliever...Healing is the childrens bread.

Lady pho it says if 2 of you on "earth"
asking the Father...and it was Jesus himself that gave us permission to do that...
Remember the first miracle that Jesus performed? He told his mother (Mary) that his time was not yet...her faith overlept the time element and she got what she asked for. He turned the water into wine...and it was the best wine..

angel...thank you for you response. God does care about out earthly possessions that he has given us. If you will recall, Abraham went after Lot belongings and recovered them as did David...He recovered ALL e-mail me if you want scriptures...My daughter and I put our faith to work...Faith w/o works is dead.

Mary, your faith is so refreshing and how I admire you standing on God's promises! You are so very wise!!
Count me in! I'm standing, in agreement that God will indeed, restore the pearls back to your daughter. His Word does not return void and standing upon HIS promises, submitting this to Him, in agreement, will certainly prompt our Lord! He is faithful!!
I too, would like to know when God answers our prayers. One thing we do know, it will be in His perfect timing!
God Bless You,
Gail

I do agree with this scripture verse. However, does it apply to every wish that we ever could conceive of having. I truly hope that your daughter does get her pearls back but does her faith and yours rest on getting back the pearls? The point is do you lose faith in a loving God if the pearls are not found. Or do you press forward even during trouble to the end. Miracles do not happen everyday and faith is believing even when we can not see.

No.
"Matthew 18:19 is not a verse isolated within itself, because it is part of a group of 6 verses, beginning with Matthew 18:15 and ending with Matthew 18:20. These verses deal with a single subject, are a single unit and comprise a teaching spoken directly by Jesus Christ to His disciples, so it is imperative that leaders present the verses as Jesus Christ intended and taught. If the verses are claimed to teach what they do not, then the teachers are claiming that Jesus Christ was a liar and they are speaking the truth, which assumes that they are of better moral and spiritual character, and have greater understanding than Jesus Christ. This is not acceptable. Verse 19 cannot be separated from that unit of six verses and must be interpreted within the confines of that unit.
WHAT VERSE 19 IS NOT
1. Verse 19 has NOTHING to do with requests to God by a believer, in relation to health, wealth, happiness or any other aspect or desire in their own life.
2. NO request is made to God by the individuals in the verses.
3. God is NOT asked to agree with or grant any request that is made.
4. The subject of verse 19 is NOT about prayer and prayer is never mentioned.
5. The two persons of verse 19 are NOT individual Christian believers making requests for themselves.
WHAT VERSE 19 IS
1. It is part of the unit regarding the subject of the DISCIPLINE of sinning Christian believers, introduced in verse 15.
2. There are FOUR people in verse 19, not just 2..."
See the rest of the explanation below.

I Believe Matt I8:I9 >>>I am in the Habit of doing That with a Prayer Partner, and Getting ahold Of God, Just like He says......
Notice> He doesn' t say, Maybe or Might.....He Says It SHALL BE DONE! "Thank YOU, Jesus"

I support you in your faith an belief. I never put down others faith an beliefs because we all are free to make our choices.
As photo implys { least way I read Her } the bible can be used to support any thing you want it to. Again its how each us choose to think an belive.
Good Luck on the necklace.

Maybe looking for them/ putting up flyers/ asking around would be more effective. Just a thought.

The only miracle that I would believe is spontaneous regrowth of limbs. Maybe you should teach your daughter to take better care of her things.
