James 5:16 NASB "Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. A prayer of a righteous person, when it is brought about, can accomplish much."After hearing the news, all we could do was pray! Today's Word is filled with so much like admitting our sin, praying for healing, and how the prayers can accomplish much. As he shared the news of how he cheated on his wife, he spoke of how he regretted it, repented of it, but still had to face the reality of divorce and not being with his children, we began to pray. Our men's group made the decision to pray with him and for him daily. As the court date came closer, we prayed and then the news came that his wife didn't want the divorce but that they would go for christian marriage counseling. Years later, they were still together, stronger than ever and the sin of the past was far behind them. Prayer can accomplish much but we must be willing to be steadfast in praying for those who repent and turn to Jesus. Let's keep praying, it can accomplish much! peace, tom
