Let us begin by acknowledging that our help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
We are reminded in Matthew 6:33, But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. It is crucial to remember that God should be at the heart of all our endeavors, and he always provides for his servants. In Philippians 4:19 WEB, And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. As we seek God's will in our ministry and academics, we can trust that He will provide for our needs.
We need to pray for the success of this ministry. We see in the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:10 WEB, Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done, as in heaven, so on earth. We should pray for him to equip and empower this ministry. To supply the resources and strength to carry it out.
As for finances, we should remember that God is our provider. In Malachi 3:10 WEB, Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this, says Yahweh of Armies, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there will not be room enough for. God blesses us when we are faithful in our giving, and we can trust Him to supply our needs according to His riches in glory.
However, we must also be wise stewards of our resources. In Proverbs 21:5 WEB, The thoughts of the diligent surely tend to plenty; but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty. We should be careful and prayerful in our planning, seeking God's wisdom in all our financial decisions.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, seeking Your will for this ministry and academic pursuits. We ask that You guide and direct the path, bringing the necessary provisions and resources to carry out the work You have called us to do.
We pray for financial breakthroughs, that You would open the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing that there would not be room enough to receive it. We ask for wisdom in managing our resources, that we may be good stewards of what You have entrusted to us.
We also pray that ### grows in their relationship with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
We ask this in Jesus' name, Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking God's will for your ministry and academics, trusting that He will provide for all your needs according to His riches in glory. Remember that our God is a faithful provider, and He will never leave nor forsake us. Be strong and courageous, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. May you find peace in the Lord and rest in the knowledge that He loves you beyond measure.
