~"And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold." Genesis 13:2
~"He listened to, and obeyed God". Genesis 12:1-4
~"He honored God, who prospered him." Genesis 12:7
~"He was generous, and avoided strife." Genesis 13:5-9
~"He was compassionate toward others." Genesis 18:24-33
As you can see Abraham was prosperous, generous, compassionate, peaceful and obedient. And because he possessed these attributes God blessed him and future generations. If you want God to be involved in your finances and prosper you as Abraham, you must honor these basic principles. You cannot be greedy and truly prosper. There is nothing wrong with wanting to have abundance for yourself and your family, but giving to God and being generous to others is part of the spiritual law.
However, most Christians are defeated in their finances, living paycheck to paycheck, not living in the overflowing abundant blessings and prosperity that we inherited as believers, looking to the world as the standard and gauge for wealth and prosperity. And we are defeated because we believe and confess the words of the enemy that we will never have anything, that we will never amount to anything, and that we will always have just enough. These words have us in bondage, shackled and chained. God has given us His Word so that we can understand these spiritual laws. When you speak negatively about your financial situation, you have what you say and believe. Words are powerful, but God word is full of creative POWER. When you agree with what God has said about you and your prosperity, speaking His Word, your circumstances will begin to change and the chains will be broken over finances! You can have what you say and believe. With your words you speak life or death, poverty or riches, sickness or health. You may tithe 10%, work hard, and pray for prosperity every day, but if your words are negative and contrary to God's Word, you could stay in debt, struggling to make ends meet. When you work with these laws, they work for you. When you work against God's spiritual laws, they work against you. Let's pray today that you begin to work with these spiritual laws so that you can live in prosperity. Speak PROSPERITY!
Intercession Prayer
Heavenly Father, I come to You now in the name of our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. Holy Spirit I ask that You will quicken me to hear our Heavenly Father's voice and lead me in prayer. Heavenly Father I bow and worship before You. I come to You with praise and thanksgiving. I come to you in humility, in fear and in trembling. I come to You in gratitude, asking for forgiveness for speaking death in my finances and over my life. I repent and commit today to speaking life, prosperity and blessing over my life, home, marriage, children and finances.
Heavenly Father, in Jesus Christ Holy Name, I pray Your word over my finances and I thank You for manifesting Your Word in my life according to 3 John 1:2, "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in good health, even as thy soul prosper," In Jesus' Name and on the authority of Your Holy Word, I call my debts paid in full. In Jesus Name, debt I speak to you; paid and be gone. Lord your word says, that you have opened unto me good treasure and have blessed the work of my hands. In your name I command the blessing upon me and my storehouse and all that I do. Therefore, I declare that all my debts, mortgages, and notes are paid in full, cancelled, or dissolved. My God makes all grace abound toward me in every favor and earthly blessings, so that I have sufficiency for all things and I am prosperous in all works. I am blessed in the city, blessed in the field, blessed coming in and blessed going out, blessed in my laying down and in my raising up. I am blessed in the basked and blessed in my bank accounts, investments, health and in my relationships, they flourish. The blessings of the Lord shall overtake me in all areas of my life and I receive them. I receive them so that I shall be a blessing to the kingdom. As I give, it is given unto me, good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over.
I rebuke the devour in Jesus Name. No weapon that is formed against me will prosper. All chains, obstacles and hinderances to my prosperity are now dissolved. I am like a tree planted by the rivers of living water. I bring forth fruit in my season, my leaf shall not wither and whatever I do will prosper. O lord you are a shield about us and I claim the full protection of the Son of the living God over my possessions, finances, family, marriage and my life.
I proclaim and speak the life that Yahweh God has intended me to live; filled with overflowing abundance of prosperity, light, power and life filled with the love of Jesus Christ. I pray and speak all these things in the powerful Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, who is able to break every chain!
