Prayer For Financial Difficulty
Heavenly Father, I come to You because I am facing some money problems and yet I know that more money is not the answer to the difficulties that I face, but a closer walk with You.
Forgive me Lord, for I think that I have spent too much time worrying about my finances and what I am going to do and how I am going to manage, as prices climb higher each day, without giving serious consideration that I should seek You first and Your righteousness, knowing that all these things will be added unto me.
Help me Father, to get my financial worries in the right perspective and to fix my eyes upon Jesus, knowing that You know everything we need before we even ask You. Please draw me back into right relationship with Yourself, for I am trusting in You,
Amen.
O Lord, I confess that I have been unwise in so many of the financial decisions that I have made, which has caused me to get into debt. I have made many foolish mistakes, which have caused me to accumulate many bills which I am unable to meet. I have used credit unwisely and am accruing more interest due to my thoughtless actions.
I ask You Lord, to forgive my foolishness in building up such a mountain of debt, and to enable me to correct this enormous financial burden, which I confess is of my own doing and through my poor planning and inept financial skills.
I come to You Lord in my poverty, and ask that You would guide me through this difficulty and teach me to be more responsible both with my finances and my relationship with You, which I have neglected for so long.
Lord, I ask for Your help as I can do nothing without You and I thank You that You have heard my cry,
Amen.
Dear Lord Jesus, I come before You and ask that You would give me the finances I need to meet the demands of life. I continue to trust You for all my needs and thank You for the way that You have provided for me in the past.
Lord, I do not seek after wealth and riches but sufficient to meet the demands of the day and to keep me from foolish worry. Give me I pray, means to work so that I may provide for the needs of my dear family, and I will give you all the praise and glory for all Your goodness to all Your children. In Jesus' name,
Amen.
Dear Lord and Heavenly Father, I do thank You for the way that You have supplied for all my needs throughout my life, according to Your promises. Thank You for the generous provision I have received from You on so many occasions, when no help was forthcoming.
I come to You today asking You to undertake for the financial needs I am facing today. I know that there are many people who are in a similar position to me who are facing increasing costs in their lives too, and I pray that You look down in pity on all Your children in need.
It says in the Bible that we do not have because we do not ask, so I am humbly asking Father that You visit the lives of every child of God that is facing a shortage of money or some financial hardship and ask that You would be our great Provider, as You have promised. This I pray in Jesus' precious name,
Amen.
Dear God, I know that it says in the Bible that You are the One Who makes us rich and poor, and that You exalt and You bring low. I pray that You will provide enough for me to live decently and help me to be wise with the money that I do have. Help me to become a good steward of the resources that You have given to me.
I know that it is better to trust in Your supply than that of the government or my pay package. Help me to apply this truth in my own life. I trust You Lord, in Jesus' name,
Amen.
Dear God,
I surrender my financial affairs and concerns about money to your Divine care and love.
I ask that you remove my worries, anxieties, and fears about money, and replace them with faith.
I know and trust that my debts will be paid and money will flow into my life.
I have only to look to nature to see proof of the abundance you provide.
I release all negative thoughts about money, and know that prosperity is my true state.
I commit to being grateful for all that I now have in my life.
I learn to manage my finances wisely, seeking help where needed.
And finally, I ask you to help me understand my purpose in life and to act on that purpose with courage and strength. I know that prosperity will come, in part, by doing work I love. Please help me use my skills and knowledge to be of service in the world.
Thank you, God.
Amen
Dear Lord,
In this time of uncertainty,
Be my rock in a world built on sand;
Be my oasis of grace and peace in a world filled with tension and turmoil;
Help me to carry my cross gracefully, as you did in Your Passion;
Help me to follow Your beam of light in the midst of this darkness;
Help me to see Your will in all things
And show others Your comfort and strength.
Keep me calm when tempers flare up;
Keep me sane in a crazy world;
Keep me focused on the houses in Heaven
rather than the houses of cards collapsing around me;
Keep my eyes focused on the prize of Heaven
and not lose hope in You in this world or in the world to come;
Make me compassionate in dealing with others;
Let me see my travails as carrying my cross and sharing in Your Passion, for the love of You and for the salvation of souls, including mine.
And may all my difficulties be ultimately for my good and Your glory. Amen.
Dear Lord,
Help me find firm ground in this shaky economy.
As I seek work and assistance,
Give me strength not to be anxious when I seem to be going nowhere;
Give me patience not to despair when things look bleak;
Give me serenity to know you are here with me, helping me to carry my crosses each day;
So that I may do Your will,
For the salvation of souls
And for my Eternal Life. Amen.
