There is power in the name of Jesus, in fact it is only through His name can we approach God.
Let us remember the words of Jesus in John 14:13-14 WEB: Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

Also, in Acts 4:12 WEB: There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved.
Now let us address your particular concern knowing that Jesus must be the central figure in our lives and prayers. In Matthew 6:33 WEB: But seek first Gods kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.

This verse highlights the importance of excellence and integrity in our work.
As for debts that you mentioned, if at all possible, then the debt should be repaid to the government. Romans 13:7-8 WEB: Give therefore to everyone what you owe: taxes to whom taxes are due; customs to whom customs; respect to whom respect; honor to whom honor. Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.
