Be Healed

James 5:16 NLT 
Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.

This is a hard one for most of us, I believe. It is easy to tell someone else what they have done to sin. But to tell others, especially the one we may have done or said something to, is hard. We have to get out of ourselves, out of our fleshy side, to do it.

When we tell another believer, one that we have a relationship with, the things that are weighing on our mind they are released and we can go on in our journey. Keeping these things to ourselves keeps us going over them again and again. Even when we stuff them in the far back corner of our mind, they come back to bother us; sometimes in our dreams.

As a born again believer in Jesus Christ, we are righteous in Him. So as we reach forth and confess one to another and pray for each other we are healed of our emotional issues and our physical ones.

We have the authority to lay hands on the sick and the power to command healing in each other. We need to start exercising this daily expecting wonderful results.
