Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy?
Let them sing songs of praise. Is anyone among you sick?
Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.
And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up.
If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.
The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
James 5:13-16
Father God, thank you for the privilege you have given us in prayer, thank you for your promises
of hearing our prayers and answering them according to your will.
Help me remember that just because I don't get the results I want,
does not mean you did not hear my prayer, O Lord.
Help me remember that you are in control and know what is best for me,
even when I don't understand, I pray, in Jesus' name.
Amen
