Prayer for success? Does it work?
We all know that success is brought on by hard work, so what does prayer have to do with it?
Well, apparently, a lot!
Let me show you some hard evidence.
Many successful people pray. Top-level CEOs like Arne Sorenson, Indra Nooyi, and Tim Cook. Entrepreneurs like Tony Robbins. Hollywood celebrities like Richard Gere and many others.
Still not convinced?
Who do you think prays more? The American entrepreneurs or people employed on wages or salaries?
Do you think the latter?
Wrong!
American entrepreneurs pray significantly more than the rest of the American population. This has been confirmed in this study.
And who is more successful?
Again, the entrepreneurs. On average, an American entrepreneur earns up to 50% more than the non-entrepreneurial population.
I think you can now clearly see that there is a link between prayer and success.
Of course, success is not only measured in monetary terms. The word “success” means something different to everyone. For one, it may mean reaching the very top of the corporate ladder. While to another, it may mean having their own business and quitting their day job. Regardless of what your personal picture of success looks like, prayer will be the paint to bring your picture to life.
As mentioned before, prayer for success at work is the driving force behind many successful people, whether talked about openly or kept secret behind the four walls of their homes.
Prayer has been creating success for people as long as people have existed. So why not let it do the same for you?
If you independently pray regularly or if you are new to the world of prayers. We have provided some powerful prayers for success below.
They can be used regardless of your beliefs. If you are Christian, you may finish each prayer with “In Jesus’ name, Amen.” Muslims can end with “Peace be upon you and God’s blessings”.
End each in a way that works for you and what you believe.
