Alaska / Job Interview

Greetings from ###,

On ###, I lost my new job as a laboratory manager. I was asked to lie about the QA samples. It was an unfortunate situation and I’ve been very sad about it, but life goes on.

I’ve been doing DoorDash in between to try to make ends meet. I’m about to leave to go do some more work.

Today, I had a really good interview for a job on the army base. I believe I will qualify for the position and I hope I get it.

Tomorrow, I have an interview at a furniture store. I canceled the interview at a school in ### teaching fifth grade math. The principal asked me if I could be there in three weeks and at first I said yes, but later I thought about it, and it would be nearly impossible.

Next week, I have a job interview for a manager position of a community center in ###, ###. It’s really pretty down there and it has lots of rain which I love (Acts 14:17).

My faith is strong. I trust that God is guiding my steps (Prov 3:3-5). I think it’s the reason I canceled the interview in ###; it did not seem like a good fit for me. It’s always an honor to get an interview and I hate to turn them down.

I am exhausted. I sleep a lot. I’ve been under so much stress and sadness over my wife, leaving me and not seeing my children and now no job.

It amazes me how evil women can be.

The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down (Prov 14:1).”

In the USA, ###% of divorces are initiated by women. ###% if she has a college degree.

My wife left me. It’s one thing for your wife to leave you when she steals your children. that’s another issue.

I still love her, and I stand prepared to forgive her. In my mind, I already have. I keep praying that God will restore my marriage in my family.

Please pray with me and for me.

The number one reason I stay in ### is because my wife and children are here. Other than that, I have no reason to be here.

I prayed for over a year that God would bring me back here and last August he did. But since then, my life has had a lot of ups and downs. I almost died on December 29, ###. I got locked out of my van and -###°F.

I am exhausted. I need to go to DoorDash, but I’m so tempted to go to sleep. When I sleep, the pain goes away unless I have bad dreams.

A good job will help me tremendously. It will give me something to do all day and it will give me the income that I badly need.

The previous job was such a blessing. It’s why I miss it so much. Unfortunately, I got teamed up with a bad outgoing manager. He did not seem bad at first, but about the middle of the first week I could tell.

Please pray for me. I want you to know that I’m truly grateful for each and every prayer that you have made on my behalf.

There is power in prayer (James 5:16)!
 
We are truly sorry to hear about the trials you are facing, but we are grateful for your unwavering faith in God's guidance. It is commendable that you stood firm in your integrity when asked to compromise at your previous job. Remember, God honors those who honor Him. As it is written in 1 Chronicles 16:27 WEB, Glory and honor are in his presence. Strength and gladness are in his place.

Let's first address the most pressing issue. You mentioned your wife left you and took your children. This is a deeply painful situation, and our hearts go out to you. We must remember that God's design for marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman. As it is written in Malachi 2:16 WEB, For Yahweh, the God of Israel, says that he hates divorce; for one covers violence with his garment, says Yahweh of Armies. Therefore pay careful attention to your spirit, that you don't deal treacherously.

We encourage you to continue praying for your marriage and your family. God can restore what is broken, and His power is made perfect in our weakness. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 12:9 WEB, He has said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.

Regarding your job interviews, we are hopeful that God will open the right doors for you. It is important to trust in His timing and provision. As it is written in Psalm 37:5 WEB, Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this:

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today in Jesus' name, lifting up our brother who is going through a difficult time. We ask for Your comfort and strength to surround him. Guide his steps as he seeks new employment, and open the doors that are according to Your will. Restore his marriage and bring healing to his family. In the name of Jesus Christ, we rebuke any spirit of heaviness, depression or sadness. We pray for divine encounters for him this week during his interviews. We ask for your will in his life. We thank You for Your unfailing love and faithfulness.

We also pray for his wife, that You would soften her heart and draw her back to her husband and to You. We pray for his children, that they would be protected and comforted during this time.

Father God in Heaven, we also pray for his physical health and for complete restoration. We praise You and thank you for your love and guidance. We ask all these things in Jesus Christ's name. Amen.

Lastly, we want to encourage you to continue trusting in God, even in the midst of your pain. He is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. As it is written in Hebrews 13:5 WEB, ...Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.

As you may be currently aware, Jesus Christ is the only way to God the Father. It is only by his name that we are saved. For it is written in John 14:6 WEB, Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. If you believe in Jesus Christ, you are saved and have access to God.

Do not be tempted to believe that there is any other way. We must only pray by the name of Jesus Christ. This is part of believing in Jesus Christ.
 
I'm really sorry to hear about all that you're going through. It's like a storm, isn't it? But remember, even in the darkest storms, God is with you. He's right there, walking through it all with you.

I want you to know that we're here for you, praying for you every step of the way. We're lifting you up to the Lord, asking Him to comfort you, to strengthen you, and to guide your steps. We're asking Him to open the right doors for you, to restore your marriage, and to bring healing to your family.

We're also claiming God's promise in Philippians 4:7 over you: "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." We're believing that you will feel His peace, even in the midst of all this.

Keep trusting in God, my friend. He sees you, He loves you, and He's working all things together for your good.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
