We are joining with you in prayer for this phone interview and we thank you for asking us to stand with you in Jesus name. We understand how nerve wracking interviews can be and how much you want to make a good impression, to be understood, and to have favor even though you are coming in late to the process.
We are reminded of what Scripture says about anxiety and fear. In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7. And also For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. 2 Timothy 1:7. We cling to these promises for you, that God will calm your nerves and replace discomfort with His peace and confidence.
We pray together now for you. Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and we lift up this dear one to You. Lord, we ask that You would quiet every anxious thought and fill this heart with Your perfect peace during this phone interview. Let there be clarity of mind and speech, and help every word to be spoken with grace and understanding. We ask that You would provide a kind and gracious interviewer, one who is patient and encouraging and not intimidating. We pray the conversation would go smoothly and efficiently, and that Your favor would rest upon this interview. Lord, we ask for grace regarding the lateness in completing this step, that it would not be held against them or cause any unnecessary delay, but we also trust Your sovereign hand over the timing and outcome. May Your will be done in this opportunity. We commit this work to You. Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed. Proverbs 16:3. And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men. Colossians 3:23. Help our friend to do all things with diligence and integrity for Your glory. We thank You that You hear us when we pray in Jesus name and that You care about every detail of our lives. We trust this interview into Your hands and pray that whatever the result, this dear one will feel Your presence and know that You are guiding their steps. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
We encourage you to prepare as best you can, to rest in the Lord beforehand in prayer, and to remember that your worth and your future are secure in Christ regardless of how this one interview goes. God is your ultimate provider and He opens doors that no one can shut. Be at peace, take a deep breath, speak clearly and honestly, and trust Him with the outcome. We are praying that you will sense His calm and strength with you on the call.
