Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. (James 5:16 ESV)
I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God that you may know that you have eternal life. And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him. (1 John 5:13-15 ESV)
Psalm 5:3
"My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up."
Nehemiah 4:9
"Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our God, and set a watch against them day and night, because of them."
(he prayed as well as took action)
Psalm 27:14
"Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD."
Romans 12:12
"Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;"
Matthew 6:7
"But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking."
1Thessalonians 5:17
"Pray without ceasing."
these are just afew of the verses I found concerning prayer :)
I truly believe that this is the best way to constrain, and keep the devil back. To heal the wounds in our lives, the ones that maybe before seemed permanent. To take back the joy and life that Christ has always intended.
This is a privelege for us as believers, may we use it to its fullest extent. :)
