How To Ask Anything From God Including Financial Blessings
One of the greatest desires of man is to be able to change negative or contrary circumstances into good and positive ones. The poor want to be rich; the sick want to be healthy; the unemployed want to have a well-paying job or business; those with terminal illnesses who have been given up to die want to miraculously recover and live; those with trouble in their marriage want restoration, peace and love to reign; the man who just lost his job wants to get a better one immediately; the couple yet to have the blessing of the fruit of the womb want God’s divine intervention; a man living on the streets with no roof over his head wants the blessing of accommodation; the man with the law suit wants to be discharged and acquitted. The list goes on. There is no person on earth who does not want to change a particular, or several situations and circumstances in his life.
How To Connect To The Source Of All Things
There is nothing in the world that does not have a source. Good and evil have a source. Blessing and curse have a source. Abundance and lack have a source.
Knowing how to connect to the RIGHT SOURCE is the key to getting the blessings required in life. This is where God comes in the equation. He is the source of all the blessings that you desire.
It is the will of God that we prosper (3 John 2). But when a person finds him or herself in a state of “FINANCIAL TIGHTNESS”, the right person has to be contacted and that person is God.
Secondly, the right approach is supposed to be taken to get the blessings. The right approach is through the Word of God. God would not do anything outside His Word. If you must get anything from God, you ought to do it through His Word.
Going through the Word of God means, we are expected to base our desires and prayers to God for divine intervention in our life, affairs and situation STRICTLY ON THE WORD OF GOD!
Basing your prayers and desires STRICTLY ON THE WORD OF GOD, means you address your situation before God based on the following:
1. What He has declared
2. What He has done
3. What He has done for others that were in similar situations as yours.
4. What He has promised to do
5. His love for you
6. His merciful nature
7. The finished work of Jesus on the Cross — This includes, Jesus’ sufferings, shed blood, burial and resurrection.
To successfully use any of the above points in your prayers inorder to pray prayers that are guaranteed to give the desired results, requires that you make a practice of having or arming yourself with some scriptures. These scripotures ought to be related to your subject of prayer or desires. Also, the process of getting these scriptures is not difficult at all, but it requires you put in some effort in searching the bible. It is even easier, if you use a bible app or search online for scriptures that are related or connected to your needs, which you can use in prayer to God.
