PRAYING GOD'S WILL | FINANCIAL PROBLEMS (1)

1. Praying God's Will

a) What should you pray for? Scripture is clear that you should pray God's word. At the same time, you must never forget that God is sovereign and that He is not obligated to a name-it-and-claim-it theology. God will always do what is best. But at the same time you will do well to understand that when you pray God's word, you are actually praying both the mind and the perfect will of God for yourself.

b) If you follow a systematic plan of praying God's will, you will see dynamic growth take place in your life. You will become the man God intended you to be.

2. Financial Problems

Heavenly Father, it is not Your will that I should have to contend unnecessarily with financial problems. Because I believe strongly in Your word, I present to You as my prayers for me Your very words on this subject. Please honor Your word and release me from any and all financial problems in my life. I pray Your words in Jesus' name. Amen.
