"The effective fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." James 5:16

Effective fervent prayers are desperate prayers spoken through tears of pain and suffering from a heart broken with the weight of circumstances beyond our ability to understand or control.

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6

Learn His will, persist in prayer, pray in faith and pray in expectation.

"...ask in faith without doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea... James 1:6

and wait upon the LORD.

"They that wait for the LORD will gain new strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary." Isaiah 40:31
