READ: James 5:13-20; Mark 5:33-34; Matthew 27:3-5
Have someone read James 5:13-20 out loud for the group. Spend time as a group going through each verse and responding in faith as the Spirit prompts. Take time to pray over group members as needed, or use the time as a time of confession.
If prompted, consider splitting into male and female groups for a focused time of confession and prayer. This can include prayers for spiritual healing as well as physical needs.
Reflect: Discuss the statement: “God cannot heal the person you’re pretending to be. He wants to heal who you actually are.”
If anyone believes their next step should be with a staff member or the elders, have them reach out to the prayer team at: prayer@auburncommunitychurch.com
CHALLENGE: Establish a daily prayer rhythm for this week. Begin each day with the Lord’s Prayer - Matthew 6:9-13. In the middle of the day, ask God for someone to intercede for. End the day with reflection and praise God for what he did that day.
