Financial Security
Father in Heaven,
Everything we have
Comes from You.
We pray for financial security
For our household,
And the households of our neighbors.
May You provide
Reliable work and dependable income.
Form a financial foundation
Where anxiety is replaced
With Your provision and peace.
May we be grateful for,
And work faithfully toward,
A country where financial security
Is a real and possible future for all.
May we steward all You have given,
With both attention and intention,
Leveraging the financial resources
You have entrusted us with
For Your Kingdom work.
May we invest not only in our own interest,
But invest in the interest of others,
Giving without concern or calculation.
May our credit cards, bank statements, and balance sheets
Not reflect the emptiness of envy or the endlessness of greed,
But of Your generosity, goodness, and grace.
May we seek financial security
Not only for ourselves,
But for all in our city,
For this generation, and generations to come.
Amen.
Thank you to Kate Redden & Dan Lagerborg for their contributions to this prayer.
