20 Bible Verses to Pray over Your Finances

I remember getting that fateful call. I heard something different in his voice. He seemed eerily calm, but his voice sounded different. “I think they are trying to let me go. I think I’m going to get laid off. I feel something. Something feels off,” my husband stated. I remember walking outside of our home. Our first home we purchased together. Our only home our kids had known. We had lived in this home for 7 years, and the thought of losing it terrified me. I didn’t communicate any of these thoughts to my husband. I remained calm. I listened, and then when we hung up our call, I instantly prayed. We had experienced God’s hand in our lives so much. We had seen God move saving my husband six years prior, and moving mountains in our relationship and family. But unemployment with four mouths to feed, one who was under 1, it was SCARY! We had lived on ONE INCOME for our entire relationship, and my side hustle never paid bills. Unemployment. That fateful day brought about 9 months of unemployment that forever changed the way we saw God and how we prayed over our family and ultimately our finances! So here’s 20 bible verses to pray over your finances!

Before we go to the 11th scripture, I want you to take a look at the above picture. This was a few weeks before we opened our 2nd restaurant in Camden, SC. We were sitting down, eating with our boys, at our first restaurant Eggs Up Grill Killian! We were laid off Feb 2016, and a year and a half later, God opened a door for us to partner with some amazing partners to open our very own restaurant Eggs Up Grill! A restaurant we did not think possible. But through our unemployment, God taught us to pray big, BELIEVE BIG, EXPECT MIRACLES from God! And so we did! And through the power of Jesus, we opened our very first restaurant with our partners December 2018 and a year later we opened Eggs Up Grill Camden March 2020. But God! God used our unemployment to teach us, to humble us, to build us, to grow us, and then he promoted us! Not because we were worthy, but because of God’s goodness, mercy, and favor toward us! He is worthy! Not us! We are just the vessels. So no matter what you are facing today because of the Coronavirus, can you pray big prayers over your finances, and believe that God is going to use this time to grow and prosper you! Now, I don’t believe in the prosperity doctrine, but I believe in the power of Jesus and He is faithful to His promises to you! So let’s believe in those and pray those over our lives today!

11. Psalm 81:7 “You called in trouble, and I delivered you; I answered you in the secret place of thunder;”

15.Psalm 46: 1-2 “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed.”

And your offspring shall possess the gate of his[a] enemies, 18 and in your offspring shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice.”

20. Psalm 46:7-11 “The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Come, behold the works of the Lord, who has made desolations in the earth. He makes wars cease to the end of the earth. He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; he burns the chariot in the fire. Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge!”
