Understand The Authority Of Effective Prayers For Prosperity

By Zoe Smith


Abundance and prosperity is a desire deeply and firmly rooted in every man's (or woman's) heart. It is innate in us to want the life filled to the overflow with good things. Many times people may misconstrue this as greediness but such mindsets are only brought upon by a poverty mentality that conditions one to think that there is a ceiling to what the world thinks you should have. Do not be misled Friend, you are destined to be wealthy - you need only to believe it and desire it to be so.

What is it that children do when they want something? Pray. We too can pray for prosperity and expect to receive it because we know we are rightful heirs to it. You heard correctly, we can and should have riches and only our own thinking can stop this from coming into manifestation. Did you know that many great men and women have said prayers of prosperity over their lives and it came to pass? It doesn't matter who we are; if we only knew the power we hold inside of us, we would be amazed at how our lives can turn out to be.

Jabez is a man not a lot of people know. His life of obscurity is punctuated by a few lines in the book of Chronicles (1 Chronicles 4:10) found in the Bible. We don't know a lot about him but if you're looking for prayers of prosperity, Jabez gets top marks. This is what he prayed for to his God: "Oh, that you would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!"

His mother had a difficult delivery and named him Jabez or cause of pain. However, even a miserable family life did not stop him from crying out to God for more than what other people may have defined him to be. If you look at his request, his heartfelt wish to be blessed was tempered with the request that he will not be a source of pain as his mother saw him to be. Did God answer his prayer? The last line of the verse said it plainly: So God granted him what he requested.

What lessons can we draw from this man who had many things going against him? When you pray for prosperity, it will surely come if you believe. It is possible to for anyone, whatever your past may have been. Believe that God is not only powerful enough to give you good things; He is good enough to want it even more than you do. Understanding His nature is the beginning of unshakeable faith that can move whatever mountains you face.

Because you know your God's heart and the value you have, be bold in coming to Him in prayer. You will find blessings; and when you do, it will be a happy and natural thing for you to want to bless others as well. Remember you are meant not just to be a success - you were meant to be significant.
