Good Horse Cents
Prayer is a key to abundance . We think it selfish to pray for ourselves or for an abundant financial blessing when there are people in other lands starving for food and the gospel. We then start praying for other people and stop praying for ourselves to have any of that filthy old money that corrupts our prayer life.

The problem with that is we literally end up getting the cart before the horse. The cart being the gospel that will carry the lost into the kingdom. We pray for God to move the cart without praying for a horse. It is our money that must be available to carry the gospel before the gospel will get anywhere.

Our money is the horse that pulls the cart of the gospel. No money equals no missions. Little money equals little missions. Abundance of money equals abundance of missions. We do not want to quit praying for the cart but we must not neglect to pray for the horse to pull the cart. Hey, if you don't know how to handle a horse then pray for someone that does to have two horses.
