James

But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.

My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

Because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.

Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.
