James 5:16 (NKJV)16 Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
God created us, His body, to help each other.
He knew that we couldn’t make it on our own, so He not only gave us His Spirit, The Helper, but he told us to help each other and lean on each other.
Being a follower of Christ is about more than just laying claim to a Savior and going to church on Sunday!
Jesus told us that we are to love each other as He loved us.
John 15:17 (NKJV) 17 These things I command you, that you love one another.
As we learn to love each other and pray for each other, we will learn that our own wants and needs aren’t always as big a deal as we might think they are. And it’s not that our needs aren’t important, but sometimes we need to learn to put ourselves second, and others first.
This can be difficult at first, but as we let God grow us, stretch us and mature us, we’ll find it easier and easier to do.
Pray for one another.
