Tag: Bible verses about financial breakthrough

Philippians 4:19 (NKJV) 19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Many of us are asking God for a financial breakthrough. It seems to be the biggest thing that most of us ask Him for.

Sometimes we ask because there is a genuine need. Other times, not so much. We ask because we want something more than we need that particular something.

Either way, though, we ask and we wait expectantly.

Many times, after we have asked, we wait and we wait. And we wait some more. And it can sometimes seem like our petition is falling on deaf ears. The “breakthrough” doesn’t come. Our prayer goes unanswered.

Or does it?

In reality, here’s what happens many times. We ask God for a blessing or breakthrough, usually with a specific sum of money in mind. Then we watch and wait for that sum to show up.

Maybe we’re looking for a check of unknown origin to show up in the mail. Maybe we look for a raise or a bonus at work.

Whatever it is that we look for, we always seem to attach some type of mysterious aura to it. We expect it to be a large lump sum of money that just appears out of nowhere.

And, while we’re waiting, money comes in and goes back out. It passes through our hands without us giving it a second thought. Why? Because it doesn’t match that figure that we have stuck in our heads.

Sadly, as we watch that money come and go, we fail to recognize that much of it could very well be little pieces of the blessing that we have asked God for. We just fail to recognize it as such because it isn’t coming in a large lump sum in the exact amount we asked for.

Instead, we see smaller amounts over a period of time. They don’t catch our attention because of their size.

And, if we’re not careful, we squander it on things other than what God intended it for because of the failure to recognize it.

It’s incredibly important that we learn to recognize the blessings of God, even when they don’t show up wrapped in the package we were expecting. Failure to do so means missing out on so many of His blessings.

So, if we are asking God for something, whether a financial blessing or any other kind of blessing, we need to be vigilant and discerning to recognize the things that God sends our way, and then diligent to handle them in the way He wants us to.
