DEAR GOD -- I SURRENDER MY FINANCIAL AFFAIRS & CONCERNS ABOUT MONEY TO YOUR DIVINE CARE AND LOVE. I ASK THAT YOU REMOVE MY WORRIES , ANXIETIES & FEARS ABOUT MONEY , AND REPLACE THEM WITH FAITH. I KNOW & TRUST THAT MY DEBTS WILL BE PAID AND MONEY WILL FLOW INTO MY LIFE. I HAVE ONLY TO LOOK TO NATURE TO SEE PROOF OF THE ABUNDANCE YOU PROVIDE . I RELEASE ALL NEGATIVE THOUGHTS ABOUT MONEY , AND KNOW THAT PROSPERITY IS MY TRUE STATE. I COMMIT TO BEING GRATEFUL FOR ALL THAT I NOW HAVE IN MY LIFE. I LEARN TO MANAGE MY FINANCES WISELY , SEEKING HELP WHERE NEEDED. AND FINALLY , I ASK YOU TO HELP ME UNDERSTAND MY PURPOSE IN LIFE & TO ACT ON THAT PURPOSE WITH COURAGE & STRENGTH . I KNOW THAT PROSPERITY WILL COME , IN PART , BY DOING WORK I LOVE . PLEASE HELP ME USE MY SKILLS & KNOWLEDGE TO BE OF SERVICE IN THE WORLD .THANK YOU FATHER / GOD ..AMEN

( about this dear god stuff ) god is a loaded word for many people . i believe that god is part of us , flows through us and animates the world surrounding us . we are hard - wired to receive god's wisdom . i see god as divine intelligence , wisdom and love . some people substitute the word god and use "universe" , " lord ", or " mother father god " . it doesn't matter what word you use for this power and this prayer for it to work . do you even have to believe ? the answer is no . simply know that your words are being heard & expect an answer.
