How do we know the promise of God's presence is true?

God's promises are confirmed throughout Scripture, from the declarations of His sovereignty to the specific promises made to His people. In Matthew 18:20, Jesus assures us that wherever two or three are gathered in His name, He is present among them. This aligns with God's unchanging character and the fulfillment of His promises as seen in the lives of believers. Historical testimonies and personal experiences further affirm that believers have encountered God in worship, prayer, and community, reinforcing the truth of His presence among us.
