The Bible encourages believers to trust fully in God's sovereign provision (Matthew 6:25-34) while simultaneously commanding prudence, wisdom, and future planning. Purchasing insurance (health, life, home, auto) is not a lack of faith, but a practical act of wise stewardship that mitigates risk and protects assets God has entrusted to us. Insurance aligns with the biblical examples of setting aside resources for uncertain times (Genesis 41:33-36) and fulfills the mandate to care for one's family by guarding against financial catastrophe (1 Timothy 5:8).  

The Bible addresses the anxiety of job loss and financial fear by shifting the source of security from an earthly job to God’s heavenly provision (Matthew 6:25-34). While layoffs are a painful reality of a fallen world, the Bible condemns exploiting the vulnerable (Deuteronomy 24:14-15) and promises that God faithfully provides for those who prioritize His kingdom. Christians are called to diligent work, wise stewardship, and to fight financial fear with radical trust.

It is not wrong to pray for financial blessing, provided the prayer is aligned with a right heart posture. The Bible encourages us to ask God for our daily needs (Matthew 6:11) and provides examples of material blessing. However, the prayer must be rooted in trust, prioritize God's glory, and be free from greed (James 4:3). Our ultimate focus should be on spiritual riches, not earthly wealth.
