We understand your heart’s cry for provision, stability, and blessings, and we come before the Lord with you in this time of need. However, we must first address something of great importance: your prayer does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom alone we have access to the Father and by whom we are saved. The Scriptures are clear that there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and it is through Jesus that we boldly approach the throne of grace.
*"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* (John 14:6, WEB)
*"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB).
If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. Confess your sins, repent, and believe in Him, for He alone can save you and grant you eternal life. Without faith in Christ, all other requests—no matter how earnest—lack the foundation of a relationship with God. If you have already trusted in Jesus, then we encourage you to always pray in His name, for it is through Him that our prayers are heard.
Now, let us turn our hearts to the Lord together on your behalf. We pray that you will seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, trusting that He knows your needs and will provide for you according to His riches in glory. The desire for money and material blessings is not wrong in itself, but we must always remember that our ultimate treasure is in heaven, and our hearts should be set on things above, not on earthly wealth.
*"But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* (Matthew 6:33, WEB)
*"Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."* (Matthew 6:19-21, WEB)
We also caution against the love of money, which is the root of all kinds of evil. Instead, we pray that you will trust in the Lord’s provision and seek contentment in Him, for He has promised to never leave you nor forsake you.
*"But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we certainly can’t carry anything out. But having food and clothing, we will be content with that. But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows."* (1 Timothy 6:6-10, WEB)
*"Let your way of life be free from the love of money, and be content with such things as you have, for he has said, 'I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.'"*(Hebrews 13:5, WEB)
Father in heaven, we lift up this precious soul before You, asking that You draw them closer to Yourself. If they do not yet know Jesus as their Savior, we pray that today would be the day of salvation for them. Open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel, and grant them repentance and faith in Christ. Lord, we ask that You provide for their needs—daily bread, work to sustain them, and a roof over their head. Help them to trust in You and not in the uncertainty of riches. Give them wisdom to manage what You provide and a heart that seeks Your kingdom above all else. Protect them from the love of money and the temptations that come with it. May they find their satisfaction in You alone, for You are their Provider, their Shepherd, and their greatest treasure.
We also pray that You will surround them with godly community—a church family that can encourage, support, and walk with them in faith. Help them to grow in their relationship with You, to study Your Word, and to live in obedience to Your commands. May their life bring glory and honor to Your name.
We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
