A Prayer for Financial Stability

Scripture Reading:
Psalm 84:1-5, Genesis 41:28-37

Reflections of the Heart:

“No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and
despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” ~ Luke 16:13

Scriptural Prayer:

Beloved Father, thank You for being our Great Provider. Thank you for jobs, businesses, and income. Thank
You for all of the blessings that Your favor has afforded us. Let us live forever in Your sanctuary, safe beneath
the shelter of Your wings! For You have heard our vows, O God. You have given us an inheritance reserved
for those who fear Your Name. May we remain under Your protection forever. May Your unfailing love and
faithfulness watch over us. Then we will sing praises to Your Name forever as we fulfill our vows each day.

Lord, we, the Body of Christ, declare that the earth is Yours, and everything in it. The world and all its people
belong to You. In light of this truth, we declare that we will not rely on the government or anyone else to help us
to become financially stable. We will trust in You with all our hearts and we will not depend on our own
understanding. We will seek Your will in all we do, and we know that You will show us which path to take. We
will not place the welfare of our families at risk by making hasty or unwise financial decisions. As ambassadors
of Your Kingdom, we take authority over debt, greed, and reckless spending in all forms. In Jesus’ Name, we
rebuke the spirit of poverty, and we command that all that God has entitled us to have is released back into our
possession right now! We decree that we will not love money, but we will be satisfied with what we have, for
Father, You promised that You will never fail us and You will never abandon us. We will no longer be in fear
about our financial future, but we will submit to the guidance of the Holy Spirit who understands all things
pertaining to life.

Ask the Holy Spirit to show you what areas of financial stewardship you and your family need to
improve so that you can become more financially stable:

Holy Spirit, help us to act responsibly in the way we handle our money. Remind us to put God first in
everything we do. Give us a strong conviction to never withhold our tithes and offerings and to be generous
toward others. Lord, teach us to be cheerful givers, for You promised that if we sow sparingly, we will also reap
sparingly. But if we sow bountifully, we will also reap bountifully. Help those of us who are married to work
together, not against one another, and to pray for direction about our family finances. Help all of us to seek out
wise counsel to improve our understanding of financial management. Give us patience as we go through the
process of correction and restoration. May we learn from our past mistakes and be mindful to leave a faithful
path of excellence in stewardship for our children to follow.

Holy Father, forgive us of our many sins, including slothfulness, greed, pride, selfishness, arrogance, and
rebelliousness. Forgive us when we carelessly make vows, then break them. Forgive us for conforming to the
world’s way of doing things instead of adopting the values of the Kingdom. Forgive those of us who still
withhold our tithe from You. Lord, forgive me for ​(list any sins that you have committed​)​. Holy Spirit, remind
us of all those we need to forgive and help us to be quick to forgive. As for me, Holy Spirit, bring to my
remembrance those I need to forgive. ​(Take a moment and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal names or faces of
people that you may need to forgive. As He reveals them, say, “I forgive name of person(s).” Now,
trust the Lord to heal any wounds in your soul caused by unforgiveness.)
Holy Spirit, help us not to yield to temptation but deliver us from the evil one.

Almighty King, You are greater than we can understand. Your years cannot be counted. Everything comes
from You and exists by Your power and is intended for Your glory. All glory to You, Lord, forever! In Jesus’
Name, Amen.
