Confess your offences one to another, and pray for one another, that ye may be healed. The energetic prayer of a righteous man is mightily prevalent.

Philemon 1:10-21

I entreat thee for my son, whom I have begotten during my bonds, Onesimus: who in time past hath been an unprofitable servant to thee, but now very profitable to thee and to me: whom I have sent back; thou therefore receive him, even as my own bowels: read more.
whom I wished to detain about myself, that in thy stead he might have waited upon me during my bonds for the gospel: but without thy consent would I do nothing; that this good deed of thine might not be as of necessity, but from thy own choice. For to this end perhaps was he separated from thee for a season, that thou mightest receive him for ever; no longer as a slave, but above a slave, as a brother beloved, especially by me, but how much more by thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord? If therefore thou holdest me a sharer with thee, receive him as myself. If he hath injured thee or oweth thee ought, put that to my account; I Paul have given it under my own hand, I will repay it, not to say to thee, that thou owest even thine own self unto me. Yea, brother, I wish to have joy in thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord. Having confidence in thy obedience, I have written unto thee, knowing that thou wilt do more than I say.
