It is natural for individuals to long for a significant breakthrough in their lives and resorts to prayer to obtain it. However, one may question whether prayer alone is sufficient for God to fulfill their request.
The word of God serves as His law. If we ask something of God, He will always guide us toward following His law to fulfill our request. Dismissing His laws that enable us to achieve His provision would be interpreted as, "I want Your provisions, but I want You to do it my way."

According to Proverbs 11:24, those who give will receive an increase, and Luke 6:38 states that if we give, we will receive in return. Of course, these are Biblical principles of life. If you have been praying for a financial turnaround and to be blessed abundantly so that you never have to experience unfortunate circumstances again. In that case, these laws may be worth considering.
After your morning prayer, do you find it interesting how people reach out to you for help with their needs? What is even more interesting is your dismissal of these folks who are in need, yet you repeatedly request that God meet your needs. What about your friend you saw on social media with a "GoFundMe" account seeking help for medical financial assistance? Yet you scroll past without ever considering to help. Don't you realize by now that these were opportunities for you to engage the laws of God to release your breakthrough? This is why Scripture insists that we not only hear the word but also act upon it if we desire to see God's promises materialize in our lives, James 1:22-25.
The lesson that can be gleaned from this understanding is that while it is acceptable to beseech God for a financial breakthrough, it is also crucial to adhere to His divine laws to witness our prayers' manifestation. Simply put, it is not enough to merely ask for help; one must also try to live by God's laws to receive His blessings. To make it plain and straightforward, "WE. MUST HELP OTHERS SO THAT GOD CAN HELP US."
Regarding the above scenario, God wants us to pray, but he also wants us to participate in his law. I promise that if you ask God for financial assistance, you will receive a call or a request from someone seeking aid. This is not a coincidence. Instead, it is the same God you've been begging for a breakthrough. In fact, he heard you from the first time you made your request. He sent your answer to the person who solicited you for some spear change. Had you given it to them, it would have been the protocol for releasing your financial breakthrough? Again, the law says, "Give and it "SHALL" be given." The law further states, "If you give, you "SHALL" increase.
Your breakthrough has been delayed because you haven't been giving. Remember, faith without works is dead. Now that you've prayed, fasted, joined hands in agreement, and so on. Now, it's time to finally practice the laws of God that will ultimately release His promises.
