Matthew 26:42 KJV 1900 Pray Confidently 19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 18:19 KJV 1900 22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
