God wants His children to be prosperous. He tells us in His word that He wants us to prosper.
Deuteronomy 5:33
Stay on the path that the Lord your God has commanded you to follow. Then you will live long and prosperous lives in the land
you are about to enter and occupy.
Psalm 128:2
You will enjoy the fruit of your labor. How joyful and prosperous you will be!
Ezekiel 36:11
I will increase not only the people, but also your animals. O mountains of Israel, I will bring people to live on you once again. I will make you even more prosperous than you were before. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
Proverbs 22:10
The blessing of the Lord makes a person rich, and he adds no sorrow with it.
Psalm 112:3
Wealth and riches will be in his house, And his righteousness endures forever.
Proverbs 3:9-10
Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the best part of everything you produce. Then he will fill your barns with grain, and your vats will overflow with good wine.
Matthew 6:33
Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
Matthew 6:24
No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
Our heavenly Father does not object to His children having money; it is the love of money that is the problem. When having money becomes more important than Him, when becoming rich and successful becomes our God, this is when having more than enough is sinful.
Being prosperous is not about buying the most expensive items the world tells us we cannot live without. God wants His people, His children, to love and care for each other. Being prosperous is about helping those in need; helping the poor with food and clothing; providing the homeless with food and shelter; getting the Word, God's Good News, out to those who are oppressed. Being prosperous, having an abundance of resources, having more than enough is about helping and providing for God's children.
Prayers for Financial Breakthrough
Pray Deuteronomy 28
You may also pray Deuteronomy 28, which I have personalized for you:
“Now it shall come to pass, if I diligently obey the voice of the LORD my God, to observe carefully all His commandments which He commands me today, that the LORD my God will set me high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon me and overtake me, because I obey the voice of the LORD my God: “Blessed shall I be in the city, and blessed shall I be in the country. “Blessed shall be the fruit of my body, the produce of my ground and the increase of my herds, the increase of my cattle and the offspring of my flocks. “Blessed shall be my basket and my kneading bowl. “Blessed shall I be when I come in, and blessed shall I be when I go out. “The LORD will cause my enemies who rise against me to be defeated before my face; they shall come out against me one way and flee before me seven ways. “The LORD will command the blessing on me in my storehouses and in all to which I set my hand, and He will bless me in the land which the LORD my God is giving me. “The LORD will establish me as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to me, if I keep the commandments of the LORD my God and walk in His ways. Then all peoples of the earth shall see that I am called by the name of the LORD, and they shall be afraid of me. And the LORD will grant me plenty of goods, in the fruit of my body, in the increase of my livestock, and in the produce of my ground, in the land of which the LORD swore to my fathers to give me. The LORD will open to me His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to my land in its season, and to bless all the work of my hand. I shall lend to many nations, but I shall not borrow. And the LORD will make me the head and not the tail; I shall be above only, and not be beneath, if I heed the commandments of the LORD my God, which He commands me today, and am careful to observe them. So I shall not turn aside from any of the words which the Lord commands me this day, to the right or the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

You can stand on the Word of God and pray the following scriptures.

"Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test!"
