“Pray for one another”, James says (James 5:16). That is, speak to God on behalf of your fellow believers. Intercede for others; advocate for others; bear the burdens of others. This is our responsibility as a “royal priesthood” as Peter puts it (1 Peter 2:9). We all have access to God in prayer, and we all have a responsibility, not just to pray for ourselves, but to bring the needs of others before the throne of grace.
