James 5:15-20

15 Believing-prayer will heal you, and Jesus will put you on your feet. And if you've sinned, you'll be forgiven - healed inside and out.
16 Make this your common practice: Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you can live together whole and healed. The prayer of a person living right with God is something powerful to be reckoned with.
17 Elijah, for instance, human just like us, prayed hard that it wouldn't rain, and it didn't - not a drop for three and a half years.
18 Then he prayed that it would rain, and it did. The showers came and everything started growing again.
19 My dear friends, if you know people who have wandered off from God's truth, don't write them off. Go after them. Get them back
20 and you will have rescued precious lives from destruction and prevented an epidemic of wandering away from God.
