Your prayers can make you successful in life and I will be showing you some prayers for success in life.
Someone once said we should pray hard as if work doesn’t matter and also work hard as if prayer doesn’t matter.
What the statement is saying is that you should pray and also work hard not leaving one for the other.
You can pray to be successful in life and that prayer will come through. A good example in the Bible is Jabez.
Jabez’s Success Prayer
Jabez prayed and his prayer was answered. If God answered the prayer of Jabez then, I’m sure God will answer your prayers today because he has not changed.
Jabez was someone whose name implied sorrow. He was given that name because his mother gave birth to him in pain.
That means everything that surrounded him experienced pains and sorrow.
Possibly, at the point of his delivery, someone in his family died.
Maybe he was always sacked from his place of work because whenever resumes, he was always failing.
Maybe he was always failing his exams or he was always the least in class.
It could have been all the ladies he proposed to didn’t accept his proposal.
I’m just trying to paint how serious Jabez’s case was.
Jabez did not make fun of his case. That is what a lot of people do, they make fun of themselves and take life as a joke.
When you start seeing your life as a joke or the way other people see you then you have accepted failure already.
Be like Jabez, do not accept failure instead pray about it and God will give you success.
Jabez didn’t get depressed to the extent of committing suicide. If you have not attained success in life, suicide is not an option. You need to pray hard and work hard to achieve the success you want.
Prayers For Success In The Bible
These prayers will be taken from the Bible because that is the best spiritual guide you can have.
I will not be writing out any prayer points from my head but I will write out scriptures in the bible that you can read and meditate on.
As you meditate on the word of God, you will get inspired to pray the right prayer.
You can pray to God just like Jabez did and God will also answer you the way he answered Jabez.
Read the scriptures below, meditate on them and pray using the word.
