James 5:16-18

Amplified Bible

¹⁶ Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and pray for one another, that you may be healed and restored. The heartfelt and persistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power]. ¹⁷ Elijah was a man with a nature like ours [with the same physical, mental, and spiritual limitations and shortcomings], and he prayed ^[a]intensely for it not to rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.^{(A) 18} Then he prayed again, and the sky gave rain and the land produced its crops [as usual].^(B)
