The Prayer of Faith
James 5:13-16 (ESV)
13) Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise.
14) Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the LORD.
15) And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the LORD will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
16) Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.

As much as I enjoy the English Standard Version for ease of reading, I prefer the King James Version when it comes some verses such as verse 16a: "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." Which means it accomplishes much!
