We join with you in lifting up your financial needs before the Lord, trusting in His promise to provide for His children. The Word of God assures us in Philippians 4:19, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* You have done well to bring this request before the Father in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Christ that we have access to the throne of grace. Your faith in calling upon His name is a testament to your trust in Him, and we stand with you in agreement, believing that He who owns the cattle on a thousand hills will not withhold any good thing from those who walk uprightly (Psalm 84:11).
We also take note of your request regarding the money you have lent to others. The Scripture teaches us in Luke 6:35 to *"love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing back; and your reward will be great."* Yet, we also recognize that Proverbs 22:7 reminds us, *"The rich rules over the poor. The borrower is servant to the lender."* While we are called to be generous, it is not wrong to seek repayment when it is rightfully owed, especially when it impacts your family’s well-being. We pray that the Lord would move upon the hearts of those who owe you, that they would act with integrity and return what is due. If there has been any bitterness or resentment in your heart toward them, we encourage you to release it to the Lord, trusting that He will vindicate you in His timing. Romans 12:19 tells us, *"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"* Let this be a time to trust God’s justice and provision, even as you extend grace.
At the same time, we encourage you to examine your heart and circumstances to ensure that your trust remains firmly in the Lord rather than in the return of what was lent. Have you sought His wisdom in how you manage what He has already entrusted to you? Proverbs 3:5-6 instructs us, *"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* If there are areas where financial stewardship can be improved—such as budgeting, saving, or seeking godly counsel—we urge you to take those steps in faith, knowing that God honors obedience.
Let us also consider whether there is any unconfessed sin that may be hindering God’s blessing in your finances. Are you tithing faithfully, as commanded in Malachi 3:10? *"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this,” says the Lord of Armies, “if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there will not be room enough for."* Obedience in this area is not a transaction with God but an act of worship and trust in His provision. Similarly, are there debts or financial obligations you have neglected? The Bible calls us to fulfill our commitments (Psalm 37:21), and doing so with integrity can open the door for God’s favor.
We must also ask: have you been praying specifically and persistently about this need? Jesus teaches us in Matthew 7:7, *"Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you."* Sometimes, the miracle we seek comes as we persist in prayer, aligning our hearts with God’s will and timing. Do not grow weary in bringing your requests before Him, for He delights in the prayers of His people.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who seeks Your miraculous provision for their family’s financial needs. Lord, You are Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides, and we declare that You are faithful to meet every need according to Your riches in glory. We ask that You open the windows of heaven and pour out such a blessing that there will not be room enough to contain it. Father, where there has been lack, we pray for abundance. Where there has been struggle, we pray for breakthrough. Where there has been delay, we pray for acceleration in Your perfect timing.
Lord, we also bring before You the matter of the money that has been lent and not repaid. We ask that You would soften the hearts of those who owe our brother/sister, that they would act with honesty and urgency to return what is rightfully due. Remove any obstacles—spiritual or practical—that stand in the way of this repayment. If there has been any bitterness or unforgiveness in our brother’s/sister’s heart, we pray that You would replace it with Your peace and trust in Your justice. Help them to release this burden into Your hands, knowing that You see all and will act on their behalf.
Father, we pray that You would give our brother/sister wisdom in managing the resources You have already provided. Show them how to steward their finances in a way that honors You, whether through budgeting, saving, or seeking godly counsel. If there is any area of disobedience—such as neglecting to tithe or failing to fulfill commitments—convict their heart and lead them to repentance, that they may walk in full alignment with Your Word.
We rebuked any spirit of poverty, lack, or fear that may be attempting to take root in their life. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment shall be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). We speak life, prosperity, and divine favor over their finances, knowing that You, Lord, take pleasure in the prosperity of Your servants (Psalm 35:27).
Finally, Father, we thank You for the miracle that is already on the way. Strengthen our brother’s/sister’s faith as they wait upon You. Remind them that Your timing is perfect and Your ways are higher than ours. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
