James 5:16

Therefore, confess your sins to one another (your false steps, your offenses), and pray for one another, that you may healed and restored.  The heartfelt persistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much (when put into action and made effective by God-it is dynamic and can have tremendous power.  

The devil doesn’t like a church to pray for people because they will see results.  Prayer moves mountains and invites God to work on behalf of the person in need.  We all have come up short somehow, but we can overcome the obstacles as a group working together to help each other.
