8 Powerful Prayers for Financial Blessings
You are not a beggar and must not settle for less. In other words, you are heir to the blessing. Therefore, it is an error to be in debt and to fear and be concerned about the unstable economy or, worst of all, poverty. It is God’s wish that you have the best of finances and a breakthrough in your money condition. Utilize the following prayers to break away from the chains of financial stagnancy and catapult yourself towards the highest financial echelon:
First Prayer: Pray for All-Sufficient Grace
“Father Lord, I stand on the promise you made to us of abundance and provision, and I claim it right now. I plead that every grace abound toward me, to the extent that I will possess sufficiency for everything and also more than enough for all good works.
God, my maker, I plead that you bless me with more seed to sow and more bread for food than I have ever been gifted before. I pray for more supplies and multiplication for all the things I have sown, such that I can meet the needs of others and also have my own blessings in return. Thank you, Lord my God, in Jesus’ name, amen.”
Reference Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 9:8-11, James 1:5-8.
Second Prayer: Be Particular About What You Want
“Father God, in Jesus’ name, I receive Your Word, which says that You will give me whatever I ask in Your name. Therefore, right now, I ask for ________ (be intentional and specific about your request). Thank you for giving me these things, and thank you for hearing and answering my prayer.
Heavenly Father, if I should take any particular steps to receive Your answer, then please order my steps and direct me. Help me to follow through on wherever I should go and whatever I should do. Thank you. In Jesus’ name I ask and receive. Amen.”
Reference Scriptures: John 16:24, Matthew 7:7-8, and John 14:13-14.
Third Prayer: God Gives the Ability to Make Wealth
“Father God, thank You for giving me power to get wealth. I know You want me to have wealth so I can manage it for You, and for Your Kingdom, on this earth. Therefore, please help me to listen to Your wisdom. Help me to utilize and walk in this power to get wealth that You have given me.
I ask in Jesus’ name that You would tune my ears to hear Your voice and ideas. Align my eyes to see what You want me to do. Help me to recognize every wealth-building idea You give me, Lord, from paying off debt to building a business.
Help me to follow You in whatever You tell me to do, and then to manage the money You send for Your glory, and to increase Your Kingdom on the earth. Thank you, Father. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
Reference Scripture: Deuteronomy 8:18.
Fourth Prayer: Be a Selfless Giver Like Christ
Have you ever imagined how generous God is? The Creator Himself is very generous, to the extent that He didn’t think twice in giving out His only son, Jesus, to die for the remission of our sins. In other words, God is so selfless in his giving that he gives His best. Therefore, since our Maker loves to give, we should learn to love to give also, as it also opens doors.
“Father God, in Jesus’ name, I pray that you make me a cheerful and generous giver like you are. Help me to love giving the same way You do. Teach me the way of generosity, Lord, and help me to always say “yes” whenever You prompt me to give.
Father, please also help me to remember that I prayed this! Whenever You prompt me to give, please help me to notice that You are answering this exact prayer that I’m praying this moment. Don’t let me brush off Your promptings, Lord, but help me to hear You, obey, and see Your ideas for giving all the way through. Thank you, Father. In Jesus’ name, amen!”
Reference Scriptures: Psalms 51:12, 2 Corinthians 9:6-7
Fifth Prayer: Tending Your Harvest with Prayer
“Father God, thank You for Your Word about sowing and reaping. As I give to other people according to Your Word, and as I follow Your instructions to become generous like You are, I ask for Your reward today.
Lord, You promised that, as I give, other people would give to me: not just a little bit, but “good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over.” Therefore, I ask that You would cause that to happen. Bring me a harvest today—good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over.
Help me to depend on You as my Source (the author and finisher of my faith); help me to never depend on or put my hope in people for the provision I need. Help me to keep putting my hope and trust in You, following Your promptings to give and to do business, and then to sit back and receive.
I am opening my mouth wide, Lord God, and I ask You to fill it. Thank you for doing so. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
Reference Scripture: Luke 6:38
Sixth Prayer: The Blessings of Abraham
“Father God, in Jesus’ name, I thank You that I’ve been added into the promise You made to Abraham. Thank you for the shed blood of Jesus, which made this possible by Your grace.
Help me, O God, to disciple the whole nation at once, as Jesus commanded in the Great Commission! Please also bless me and make my name great as Your Word promises—but only for YOUR glory. Use my life to change the planet, Lord, and to add many souls to Jesus’ inheritance. Use me to be a blessing to the whole earth, and show me exactly how to follow You in this.
And, because Jesus said to pray for our enemies, I pray that You would also bless the people who curse me as well. Draw them to Jesus, and give them every blessing, both spiritual and physical, that You want to give them. It’s Your goodness that draws men to repentance, Lord, so shower Your goodness on them.
Father God, You said that I can have all the blessings You promised Abraham. I pray that, in me, all the families of the earth would be blessed—just because You said so—and that I’ll be blessed hugely too. Thank you, Father, for Your many blessings. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.”
Reference Scriptures: Genesis 12:1-3
Seventh Prayer: Prayer to Protect the Works of Your Hands
“Father God, in Jesus’ name, I thank You for Your promise that You will protect the fruit of my labor. I ask today that everything I touch would turn to “gold” and be blessed. I pray that all the blessings I’m supposed to have and all the results You give me will be protected.
Lord, I also ask that NOTHING and NO ONE would be able to touch or steal any harvest that belongs to me, and that You would help me to enjoy the fruit of all my labor and of Your blessings.
Thank you, Father. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
Reference Scripture: Isaiah 62:8-9
Eighth Prayer: I Will Be a Lender but Not a Borrower
“Father God, I come before You in Jesus’ name. Father, I know you don’t want me to have any debt of any kind. I acknowledge this truth from Your Word. So first, I confess to You that I have lived the opposite of what Your Word says. I have been a consumer of debt, and I haven’t thought anything was wrong with that.
However, Lord, I see in Your Word that debt is not Your will for me. I ask Your forgiveness for looking to debt for my provision. Thank you for forgiving me.
Lord God, I ask in Jesus’ name that You would help me to get completely out of debt. Help me to really care about this. Give me revelation about it and convict me even more! Grip my heart, my spirit, my mind, my emotions, and my body with the desire to get out of debt. Help that desire transfer over into action as well.
I also ask that You help me be content with what I already have so that I don’t chase after more stuff. Help me instead to put every bit of money I can toward paying off debt. Help me to desire freedom from debt and desire to obey You more than I desire any earthly thing. Father, I ask that You help me take steps every day toward the goal of becoming debt-free. Give me wisdom; order my steps each day.
And Lord, as I obey Your guidance and direction, I ask that You send extra money for me to use toward debt reduction. Send me unexpected checks in the mail, extra good-paying work, and creative ideas for how to earn more money so I can get out of debt faster. Help me to get out of debt and stay out of debt, in obedience to Your Word.
Thank you, Father. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
Reference Scripture: Romans 13:8, Deuteronomy 28:12, 2 Corinthians 3:17.
