Prosperity preachers have no clue. They talk about getting houses and cars and spouses - ridiculous. These are the things that will burn away, these will not last in eternity. What God wants us to be greedy for is so much bigger, we can't even comprehend. We're like little kids holding on with all our might to some mud pie when God's standing over us with diamonds going, "hello...ahem...up here..."
This is my Greedy Prayer to God:
The Greatest, Most Beautiful, Purest Thing in existence, Father You are a million sparks of Light. You burst my heart. Set me free, Father, break the human boxes that surround me, make me fly and soar in your great skies, burst my soul, capture my heart, take me on the ride of Freedom that is Your Truth!
I want it all, Father! I want all of You, I want to disintegrate into the shimmer of Your Goodness. You shatter me. You scatter me. You toss me sparkling into the air and send me in a zillion directions, flying and catching Your Light. Just want to fly on Your breeze, O my God, my Great and Good and Kind and Powerful God.
The only Purity I know. My hope. My Father. My Salvation. Make me light. Make us all a million motes of praise like tiny jewels in the air.
Amen.
