   Prayer Requests:
        Financial Stewardship
 
For quite some time, I have felt very depressed and feel as though I've been in a malaise. Our family has paid our tithe off and on. We have recently begun to pay our tithe again. Please ask the Lord to help us to continue. Also, please ask the Lord to help us be good stewards of those things he places in our discretion. There are members of my family that I'd like to help financially but, I always seem to be in a financial crunch, even though we tithe. Please ask the Lord to give me the proper perspective on money, wealth, and possessions. Also, ask the Lord to heal my heart, soul, and mind.

Thank you

Hello mr_blansit,

It is true, it is not easy sometimes. But many times the breakthrough is around the corner when we do not give up. We know what His Word says and we stand on His Word and proclaim victory over our finances.

You are right. We are stewards. Nothing really belongs to us. And because we are stewards, we learn not to rob God of our portion because in it, we declare His Lordship over our life. And He is a good Lord, not only will He provide for us, He will provide us with more than enough.

When we are in financial difficulty, we need to give more (wisely and without a grudging heart).

[2 Corinthians 9:6-7]
6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

Let your giving break the bondage and release the financial breakthrough which God has given us in His Word. Let us proclaim financial blessings which Jesus has wrought for us on the Cross. He was stripped of everything on the Cross and became poor so that we may become rich.

Father in heaven,

I lift up mr_blansit into Your hands. I know that Your Word is true above all circumstances. Father Your Word is true and will be true in mr_blansit's life. Father, I pray that You cause him to see the promise of financial blessings in his life in his spirit and he learn to hold on to it. Father, I ask that You expedite his financial breakthrough and prepare him to receive it.

Father, we wish to sow into Your kingdom for the advancement of Your kingdom in this world. Empower us, Lord, to be the head and not the tail that we may be blessings to many people.

[3 John 1:2]
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

And Father, I ask not only for financial prosperity for mr_blansit but I ask for perfect health in all areas.

In Jesus' Name, Amen.
