James 5:16
Confess your faults one
to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be
healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a
righteous man availeth much.

If my people, which
are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and
pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked
ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive
their sin, and will heal their land.
