Say this prayer:
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, Oh that thou wouldest richly bless me, and enlarge my border, and that thy hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God brought about what he had requested.
1 Chronicles 4:10

This is a prayer, for those who need and understand that is God speaking to you. I'm not throwing my pearls to porks...

Matthew 7:6:
Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.

ACK!!!
Please understand that prayer is not a magical incantation. It is communication with GOD. If someone is in financial trouble then they need to pay their existing debt and then from there not buy things they can not afford.
Jesus was very clear that as Christians we would be persecuted. Jesus was born in a manger not a castle and he is the Son of GOD. Yes GOD blesses us but only when it conforms us to the image of Jesus. He is not Santa clause.
Sorry for the rant.
May GOD richly bless you. HIS WAY.

Matthew 19:24And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
Mark 10:25It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God

I'll give you all the money in the world and yet you may be the poorest person in the world if this is all you have.
I'll take no money but love of family and friends, my heath, my love and faith in GOD, which in my opinion make me much wealthier than you with all your money.

God gives us free will, he knows our needs, he knows our greeds, If we get ourself in financial trouble because of greed, he expects us to take care of that, but iwe have needs, he sees to those needs, If we give to the poor, or the needy, then he will Bless that , and give back that ,and more, he takes care of our every need, he will even get us out of our troubles, if we call upon him, and do better with what he gives us, He knows better then we do, whats in our hearts when we pray.

If that works for everyone, then by the laws that govern economy in this country, we are all in serious trouble.

I always thought that those in financial need, need to work harder. I guess I'm stupid.
