God Answers Prayer

i'm reading all my blogs, haha.. sounds like i have plenty of blogs.. anyway, i found out one post/entry is very interesting n inpiring, i wonder how come i didn post it here (as tis is my main/primary blog), ok, here it goes:


"16Therefore 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.
17Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops."
James 5:16-18

short devotion shared by my pastor during yesterday prayer meeting, is was really encouraging, all the while i was wondering how long i've not totally trust in God n rely on Him..
God answered every prayer of Elijah, when he ask for rain, there was rain, when he ask no rain, there wasn't rain. and why Elijah has such so-called power to "twiste" the hand of God? Elijah is just a normal human as you and i, God will answer our prayer if we confess our sin and being righteous. "16 ..... confess your sins to each other and pray for each other...... The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective."

ya, i truly agree, sins will hinder the prayer...
