James 5:13-20 (NIV)
13Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise.
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 make the sick person well; 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 is powerful and effective.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 produced its crops.19My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back,20remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover over a multitude of sins.
I sometimes struggle to really believe what I am praying. I would pray for healing etc. and afterwards start to wonder if God will really head my call.
This passage in James, just gave me some new inspiration to really start to pray in earnest again. I truly love God, Jesus and the workings of the Holy Ghost, and can testify of Him coming through for me in just the last couple of days, after a lot of friends and family started some intercessory prayer for me. Thank you guys…
