2 Corinthians 9 ~ Praying Scripture

Please read 2 Corinthians 9.

Meditate on verse 8.

And God is able to make all grace abound to you,

so that always having all sufficiency in everything,

you may have an abundance for every good deed.

The church at Corinth promised to give an offering.  Believers from Macedonia were coming to receive the offering.  Paul wrote to the Corinthians to ensure they were going to keep their word.  They promised a bountiful gift; Paul did not want them to be affected by covetousness and decide to give sparingly  (2 Corinthians 9:5-6).

Examine your life.  Is there a promise you need to keep?  How do you give to your church and to others?  Are you a bountiful believer or are you motivated by covetousness?  This applies to time as well as money.

Pray 2 Corinthians 9:8, 10-11 over yourself and those for whom you are standing guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“God, make all grace abound to ___________ and me,

so we will always have all sufficiency in everything. 

May we have an abundance for every good deed.

You, Who supplies seed to the sower

and bread for food will supply

and multiply our seed for sowing

and increase the harvest of our righteousness.

Please enrich us in everything for all liberality,

which through us is producing thanksgiving to You, God.

For the sake of Your Name, Jesus~”
