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. (James 5:16)
As Christians we are to be willing to acknowledge those areas which GOD is still working on us to conform us to the image of His dear Son. We are also told to pray for our fellow believers that acknowledge their faults so that they may be strengthened and encouraged. With this confession comes healing, and cleansing as well as forgiveness which makes us righteous and our prayers are heard. Hearing from one another also makes our prayers more relevant and directed which helps us pray as we ought.
Christians need each other. We don't operate in a vacuum, there are no lone-ranger Christians. If you claim the name of Christ, but don't fellowship with His family; there is a serious breakdown in your relationship, in fact it may not actually exist. You need to repent and return to GOD today.
If you are not one of His, your biggest fault is that you are still in your sins and need the new birth that comes when you repent and surrender to GOD on His terms. He is waiting for you and wants to forgive you and make you righteous in Christ through the shed blood of Jesus. Don't delay. Believe and Receive Him today.
In Christ,
