We join with you in thanksgiving to our Heavenly Father, who owns all things and provides for His children according to His riches in glory. Your heart of gratitude is pleasing to the Lord, and we rejoice with you in acknowledging that every good and perfect gift comes from above, from the Father of lights (James 1:17). It is wonderful that you have recognized the importance of asking in Jesus’ name, for He Himself said, *"Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full"* (John 16:24). This is a promise we can cling to with faith, knowing that our requests must align with His will and His glory.
Yet as we lift this prayer before the Lord, we must also remember that our petitions should not be driven solely by a desire for material wealth or comfort, but by a heart that seeks first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. Jesus teaches us, *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well"* (Matthew 6:33). Our focus must remain on Him, trusting that He knows our needs before we even ask (Matthew 6:8). While it is not wrong to ask for provision, we must guard our hearts against the love of money, which is the root of all kinds of evil (1 Timothy 6:10). True contentment comes not from abundance but from godliness with contentment, which is great gain (1 Timothy 6:6).
We also notice your desire to bless others with the wealth you are asking for, and this is commendable. The Lord calls us to be generous and willing to share, storing up treasures in heaven rather than on earth (1 Timothy 6:18-19, Matthew 6:19-20). However, let us also remember that our ultimate treasure is Christ Himself, and our greatest blessing is to walk in obedience to Him, regardless of our earthly circumstances. Even the apostle Paul learned the secret of being content in all situations, whether in abundance or in need (Philippians 4:11-13).
Now, let us pray together over these requests, submitting them to the Lord with hearts aligned to His will.

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude, acknowledging that You are the source of all blessings. You are Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, and we thank You for the savings and benefits our sister has been entrusted with. Lord, we ask that You bless and multiply her finances according to Your will and for Your glory. Open the windows of heaven and pour out such a blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it (Malachi 3:10), not for selfish gain, but so that she may be a channel of Your generosity to the poor, the homeless, and the needy. May her heart remain fixed on You, seeking first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness, trusting that You will add all things to her as she walks in obedience.
Father, we also pray that You guard her heart against the snares of materialism and the love of money. Remind her daily that true riches are found in Christ alone, and that her worth and security are not in her possessions but in her identity as Your beloved child. If it is Your will to increase her finances, may it be done in a way that draws her closer to You and allows her to be a blessing to others. Give her wisdom to steward whatever You provide with faithfulness and integrity.
Lord, we ask that You provide for her housing needs according to Your perfect plan. Whether she remains in her current home or You open a door to something new, may she find contentment and peace in Your provision. Help her to trust You fully, knowing that You are working all things together for her good (Romans 8:28).
We also lift up her desire to reflect Your beauty, glory, and radiance. Father, may she shine with the light of Christ, not in outward adornment, but in the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in Your sight (1 Peter 3:4). Let Your glory rest upon her, not for her own sake, but so that others may see her good works and glorify You (Matthew 5:16).
Finally, Lord, we pray that You deepen her relationship with You. May she find her joy and satisfaction in You alone, and may her prayers always be offered in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father (John 14:6, Ephesians 2:18). Let her life be a testament to Your faithfulness, and may she walk in the fullness of the blessings You have prepared for those who love You.
We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
