James 5
The Prayer of Faith
13Is any one of you suffering? He should pray. Is anyone cheerful? He should sing praises. 14Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15And the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick. The Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.
16Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power to prevail. 17Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth yielded its crops.
Prayer, do we pray enough and do we pray rightly?
Life is busy and we can’t always go to our closet to pray.
Are you suffering, are you cheerful or are you sick?
Meditate on this verse,
“The prayer of a righteous man has great power to prevail”.
Pray earnestly like Elijah!
“He (YOU) should pray”.
Blessings, David
