James 5:16b – … The prayer of a righteous person is very powerful in its effect.


1. TEACH THEM TO FEAR YOU.


Proverbs 9:10 – 10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.


2. SURROUND THEM WITH DIVINE FAVOR


Psalms 90:17 – 17Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us; establish for us the work of our hands establish the work of our hands!


3. BRING GODLY INFLUENCES & FRIENDS INTO THEIR LIVES.


1 Corinthians 15:33 – 33 Do not be deceived: “Bad company corrupts good morals.


Proverbs 13:20 – 20 The one who walks with the wise will become wise, but a companion of fools will suffer harm.


4. HELP THEM TO TRUST YOU WITH THEIR LIVES AND BE SAVED!


Philippians 2:12-13 – 12 Therefore, my dear friends, just as you have always obeyed, so now, not only in my presence but even more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 13 For it is God who is working in you both to will and to work according to his good purpose.
