Prayer Works

Is anyone of you in trouble?  He should pray.  Is anyone happy?  Let them sing songs of praise.  Is anyone of you sick?  He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil, in the name of the Lord.  And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up.  If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.  Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.  The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
 
James 5:13-16
 
The Christian's most powerful resource is communion with God through prayer.  The results are often greater than we thought were possible.  Some people see prayer as a last resort to be tried when all else fails.  This approach is backward.  Prayer should come first.  Because God's power is infinitely greater than ours, it only makes sense to rely on it - especially because God encourages us to do so.
 
God Bless you,

prayers do work, just do not pray for patience, that is when trials really pop up :)

Why not pray for patience, those who ask will receive!! I think it is awesome that you can get out there and minister to the world. How amazing is God? I mean really. Praise Him.
