Praying for Abundance

My God, You are the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.  I recognize You to be the giver of every good and perfect gift (James 1:17).  I rejoice in the realization that You want me to enjoy Your abundant life in the here-and-now, that Jesus came to show me this abundant life You have to offer us (John 10:10). I will celebrate Your abundant goodness, O God, and joyfully sing of Your righteousness (Psalm 145:7).

Heavenly Father, Jesus came down to earth to teach me, to guide me, to be my Shepherd (John 10:11).  With Him as my Shepherd I have no more want (Psalm 23:1), because You crown the bounteous year with Your goodness and Your paths drip with abundance (Psalm 65:11). My gracious God, You declare that You will satisfy Your people with abundance and we will be filled with Your bounty (Jeremiah 31:14); that a faithful man will abound with blessings (Proverbs 28:20). Therefore, may all blessings come upon me and overtake me because I strive to obey the voice of the Lord my God (Deuteronomy 28:2).

Thank You for all Your unsearchable riches that You invite us to share and enjoy (Proverbs 8:18).  I will serve You obediently, for then my days will end in prosperity and my years in happiness (Job 36:11). 

I receive Your abundance, Father, as I claim Your promises for my own.  Thank You for giving me fullness (John 1:16) and abundance in every area of my life; that all I need to do is ask of You (Matthew 7:11). I will not fear for You have given me all that is in Your Kingdom (Luke 12:32).  Thank You for blessing me so abundantly.

Because of Your protective care of me (1 Peter 5:7), O Lord, and Your gracious supply of all my needs (Philippians 4:19), I know I will live in a good land and lack nothing (Deuteronomy 8:9).  You are immeasurably great (1 Chronicles 29:11), and You are greatly to be praised (Psalm 48:1).  It is good to give thanks to the Lord and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High. To declare Your loving-kindness in the morning and Your faithfulness every night (Psalm 92:1-2).

So, I praise You! I exalt Your name! Because Your love is better than life, my lips will glorify You, O Lord my Redeemer. I will praise You as long as I live, and in Your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods, and with singing lips my mouth will praise You (Psalm 63:3-5).
