In life, financial opportunities are not solely about money; they symbolise growth, progress, and the capacity to fulfil your God-given purpose without limitations. God desires for us to prosper, but prosperity does not come from prayer alone. It is achieved when faith is combined with hard work.
The Bible reminds us in James 2:17 that “faith without works is dead.” This means while we pray for financial increase, we must also be diligent, disciplined, and wise in our efforts. True success is when God blesses the work of your hands, not your wishes, but your efforts.
Why Faith and Hard Work Must Go Together
Many people pray for financial breakthroughs but refuse to take steps of faith in their daily lives. They pray for rain but never plant seeds.
Faith is believing God can bless you.
Hard work is preparing yourself so that when He does, you can handle it.
In James 2:17, the Bible says: “Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”
This means:
- When you pray for a job, apply for it.
- When you pray for business growth, market your product.
- When you pray for financial wisdom, read books and learn how to save or invest.
God blesses the work of your hands, not the words of your mouth alone. That’s why we must pray these prayer points with understanding, and be ready to act on every idea, connection, or opportunity God sends.
