S – Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is very powerful in its effect.

James 5:16 CSB

O – Commentary:

The conclusion is clear: therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other. A mutual concern for one another is the way to combat discouragement and downfall. The cure is in personal confession and prayerful concern. The healing (that you may be healed) is not bodily healing but healing of the soul (iathēte; cf. Matt. 13:15; Heb. 12:13; 1 Peter 2:24). It is the powerful and effective … prayer of a righteous person that brings the needed cure from God.

“James,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures

A – In relationship with other believers, we find strength in working out our salvation.  Confessing is acknowledging we cannot do it by ourselves.  We need God’s intervention and power to work in us.  We need others to encourage and keep us pointed in the right direction.

R – Heavenly Father, we worship and surrender to you.  We invite you to bring healing to our souls and spirit man today.  Thank you for the people who put their lives in our lives and helped us in the journey.
