SCRIPTURE
James 5:13-14: 13 Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 14 Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord.


OBSERVATION
The scripture says that if you are in trouble (or having trouble) that you should pray, but if you're sick, then call for the elders.


APPLICATION
It's funny how many people will come for prayer because of their "Troubles", yet if you ask them if they have prayed about it, they will tell you no. We need to be sure that we're in line with the scriptures in all that we do. If you're in trouble, pray. If you're sick, call for the elders to lay hands on you!

PRAYER
Father, help me to dig into your word more. Help me to know what the Bible says about my situation(s) and to act on the word.
Amen
