289. The Prayer of Faith: James 5:15-16

James teaches that the prayer of faith brings both physical and spiritual restoration, reminding believers that it is the Lord who heals, forgives, and raises up. True faith in prayer is not about controlling outcomes but trusting God’s character and will. Confession and prayer within the body of Christ open the door to healing and unity, as believers humbly depend on God and one another. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful because it is offered through faith in Christ—the One who hears and answers according to His perfect purpose.
