The prayer of a person living right with God is something powerful to be reckoned with. Elijah, for instance, human just like us, prayed hard that it wouldn't rain, and it didn't—not a drop for three and a half years. Then he prayed that it would rain, and it did. The showers came and everything started growing again.  James 5:17-18 MSG Version

The thief comes with the sole intention of stealing and killing and destroying, but I came to bring them life, and far more life than before.  John 10:10 JBP

Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 NLT

Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep.  Romans 12:15 NLT
