Answered in 1 source
God promises to heal those who confess their sins, as conveyed in James 5:16 and reinforced by the connection between confession and healing.
In James 5:16, it is written, 'Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.' This passage underscores the significance of confession not only as a means to seek forgiveness but also as a pathway to physical and spiritual healing. The relationship between acknowledging one's sins and experiencing healing illustrates that God operates through our acknowledgment of wrongdoing. Moreover, this collective prayer and confession acts as a mutual support system within the Christian fellowship, leading to restoration both spiritually and physically as God's grace is believed to flow through this process.
