Jas_5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Pair that with the verse "there is no one righteous, no not one", and the math is telling. Effectively of prayer = (Righteous Man) x (Prayer) Righteous Man = 0 Therefore, Effectively of Prayer = 0 x (Prayer) Effectively of Prayer = 0

Pair that with the verse "there is no one righteous, no not one", and the math is telling. ~~ NathanB: The next 3 verses it said Elijah was ONE righteous MAN! of God. He prayed to God and his prayers were answered by Him. Read the next 3 verses in James...Effectively of prayer = (Righteous Man) x (Prayer)
Righteous Man =
Therefore, Effectively of Prayer = x (Prayer)Effectively of Prayer = i believe that can be solved by knowing that Christ was righteous for us so through Christ we can attain righteousness status.... Amen, Wally..... Here is the rest of James 5:16-20 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.
Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back, remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins. Elijah prayed and God heard his prayer and answered it and it did NOT rain for 3 years and half.... AND he prayed again for Rain and God answered his prayer again! and the heaven gave rain and the earth produce its crops.... A PRAYER of a righteous man is POWERFUL and EFFECTIVE.... I have seen this over and over in my own life for 40 years!

Which leads me to wonder ‘ what is a righteous person’ ?
What is powerful?
What is effective?

Thank God for modern technology. Just imagine if you had to hold the phone to your ear for 6 hours a day. At least you can now put it on speaker, place it on the coffee table, sit back and enjoy a drink. This could be the new painless way to have a Convention.
Is access available right across America, or is it limited to WA.
They may have to make sure that people have been tuned in to the right program, and haven't cheated. I guess they could get a statement from the Phone Company showing who called in.

Imagine my relatives will be setting out their most uncomfortable folding chairs and the children will be dragged outside for the most zealous spanking of the year if they don't sit quietly enough.

Wally, guess you are bedding down for the night, preparing for the Special Meetings over the weekend. We will grant you a leave pass for the next few days, so as you are not distracted.
Hope you have made a pot of "Convention Stew" to get you in the spirit. I doubt you could get the same flavour doing it at home, it really has to be made by Workers.
I guess because you are not leaving home, it will not be as hard to come back and join the rabble on Monday. That was always a tough time, having to go back to work on a Monday after Convention. You just felt so clean, and not wanting to mix with evil, contaminated people.
Enjoy Wally, say a prayer for us.

very good meeting 2-3:30 today
i am not a note taker but i did jot down a bit of what was said. it is NOT everything that was said. and i of course am paraphrasing much of it...with wayne the phone went yonkers so i am not quite sure what was said exactly but i think i got the gist of it...
opened with let us draw near to God
Wayne Bechtol - psalms 1 3 things we can do that can help and be a blessing 1. keep not the counsel of the ungodly 2. be approachable 3. delight in his word Jesus had the spirit without measure Romans 11
Nadine Behrend -Jesus said man shall not live by bread alone
Sue Dawson - He who sits on the throne makes all things right the potter and the clay is how the Lord works with our hearts
Patricia Doland - the Lord they God in the midst of thee is mighty with God nothing is impossible
Eric Hawkins - the hardest part of correction in when we think we are doing right correction is just as hard to give as to receive
Amy Thompson -Jesus said come ye into this desert place and take ye some rest cast your burden on the Lord and you'll never be moved
Kaitlin Thompson -unity the intense quietness in wa state conventions is nice i need to be more like Jesus when 12 Jesus said i must be about my fathers business Jesus lived on a higher plane, so should we
Makayla Thom -understanding what the will/word of the Lord is is key. Jesus said love one another as i have loved you

Sounds good Wally, lots of good instruction. "Jesus said love one another as I have loved you". Should be more of that on TMB.

meeting was good today 2-3:30 pm
again i paraphrase much of what was said and the phone connection was not great....
meeting led with Just cling to the hand
Gary Paul -proverbs 27 nowadays some farmers and companies have done away with shepards and only do predator control and if they lose a few sheep no big deal Jesus is not like that at all everyone is precious in his sight. 1 sam 17, 1 sam 14, Acts 13, Psalms 71, psalms 79 in every field i am in i send out little notes to those who have left letting them know they are welcome back, don't get much of a response but everyone knows they are welcome. the ministry was established to be shepards of the flock.
James Lindsey -we can be careless in our judgments God is the ultimate authority God is a just judge parable of the laborers story of the rich man and lazarus
Melissa Kunz - 1 cor 1 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; in our weakness Gods strength is made perfect don't be afraid to trust in God
Scott Price - isaiah 53 the ministry of Jesus was focused on the children matt 10, matt 13, matt 15, matt 18, matt 20 even a little kindness towards one of his children in his name will bring rewards. Acts 4
Karen Tinklepaugh - Genesis 2 Psalms 103 James 1 we need his presence it settles us down if you lack wisdom ask God for it when in the presence of Jesus there is calm Jonah 2 Psalms 73 be settled
Bronson Ward - have more family time but know that the devil will drive wedges therein let love be without dissimulation

Like the love without dissimulation message. We would all say hear, hear to that, definitely what the Wold needs now, more than ever.
So Wally your vote would be huge success. Do you think there may be more meetings like this in the future.
