Prayer 3

HIS FINANCES

Lord, I commit our finances to You. Be in charge of them and use them for Your purposes. May we both be good stewards of all that You give us, and walk in total agreements as to how it is to be dispersed. I pray that we will learn to live free of burdensome debt. Where we have not been wise, bring restoration and give us guidance. Show me how I can help increase our finances and not decrease them unwisely. Help us to remember that all we have belongs to You, and be grateful for it.
I pray that my husband will find it easy to give to You and to others as You have instructed in Your Word. Give him wisdom to handle money wisely. Help him make good decisions as to how he spends. Show him how to plan for the future. I pray that he will find the perfect balance between spending needlessly and being miserly. May he always be paid well for the work he does, and may his money not be stole, lost, devoured, destroyed, or wasted. Multiply it so that what he makes will go a long way. I pray that he will not be anxious about finances, but will seek Your kingdom first, knowing that as he does, we will have all we need. (luke 12:31)

This is definitely huge! Money is tight in my family right now. We spend too much and not moderately. We want to enjoy ourselves...too much. And most importantly, we do not tithe and need to. I am working on a degree at the moment and entering a program that will give me a fantastic job in a year and a half that will help ease the financial burden on my husband. I want to put my finances in the hands of God! they are his anyway, and He's alot better with money than I am!
I love my husband!
