I heard a TV evangelist saying that praying for something will only set the stage to receiving it. The next part is that you have to go get it. The world has a "Poor Me" attitude, thinking that all we have to do is pray our life away and not do anything to improve it, but simply sit back and receive it. Nothing could be further from the truth...unless God truly wants to bless you for some reason.
Jesus said in John 14:12, "Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father."
Taking ownership of the things you hope for doesn't mean go out and steal them, that's not what Jesus did! He tells us that if we have faith as small as a mustard seed that we can move mountains, in other words we need to put some effort into it.
