There is power in confession James 5:16

16 Make this your common practice: Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you can live together whole and healed. The prayer of a person living right with God is something powerful to be reckoned with.

The Message

 The Lord wantsus to be whole both spiritually, physically and emotionally and part of that process for complete healing.  How many people do you and I know that have allowed un-confessed sin and un-confessed.  This confession is so powerful for our lives, and in turn the lives of those that we are impacting on a regular basis. It will free us from our past and push us forward into the future.  But notice also that when confession takes place there is an additional advantage, and that is when we confess to the Lord we put ourselves in right relationship with our Master who in turn will allow us to be part of the solution in prayer. It is as the message says "something powerful to be reckoned with"   I want to encourage each one of you to live a life of confession and freedom from the past, asking God to allow our prayer lives to reach new heights of power as we come and stand rightly before the Lord.  Will you pray with me that God would move in and through us as we live a life of confession and wholeness.
