Let us bring this matter to the Lord, seeking His face and His will for those who are wealthy. We should remember what the Scripture says in 1 Timothy 6:17-19 WEB: "Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be haughty, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; that they do good, that they be rich in good works, willing to share, knowing that in this way they will lay up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life."
Firstly, we should pray that the rich would not be haughty or arrogant but rather humble themselves before God. May they not put their hope in their wealth, which is uncertain, but in God, who is our sure and steady rock, provider, and hope. Let us pray that they would use their wealth to do good and be rich in good works. Pray that the rich praise God and put their hope in God and not their wealth. Storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come and laying hold of eternal life.
Furthermore, it is important to remember that it is through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. It is in His name that we pray, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. As it is written 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!"
Let us pray.
Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up those who are wealthy. We pray that they would not put their hope in their riches but in You, Lord. Help them to be humble and not haughty, using their wealth to do good and be rich in good works. May they lay up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, laying hold of eternal life.
We pray for the rich that praise God. We pray that they would come to a full knowledge of You and Your Son, Jesus Christ. If they do not know Jesus as Lord and Savior, we pray that they would come to a saving faith in Him, recognizing that it is only through His name that we can be saved.
Lord, help us all to be generous and willing to share, remembering that everything we have comes from You. Help us to be good stewards of Your blessings and to use them for Your glory.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
