Thank you for submitting your prayer request for your friend Haruna. We are here to intercede and provide biblical guidance.
Firstly, we want to emphasize the importance of acknowledging Jesus Christ in our prayers. As it is written in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'" It is through Jesus that our prayers are heard and answered.
Now, let's pray for Haruna:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ to lift up our friend Haruna. We ask for your divine wisdom, knowledge, and understanding to be upon him as he ventures into business. Guide him in his decisions, and help him to make choices that align with your will. We pray that you bless the work of his hands and grant him success in his endeavors. May he always remember to keep you at the center of his life and business, for your Word says in Matthew 6:33 (WEB), 'But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.'"
We also want to encourage Haruna with these words from Proverbs 3:5-6 (WEB), "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."
As Haruna seeks to make money, we must remind him of the biblical principles of stewardship and honesty. As Proverbs 11:1 (WEB) says, "A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight." We pray that Haruna's business dealings will be marked by integrity and fairness.
Lastly, we encourage Haruna to remember that the love of money can lead to many sorrows (1 Timothy 6:10). True contentment comes from a right relationship with God, not from wealth.
We will continue to pray for Haruna, that he may glorify God in his business and life. Amen.
