Being pulled in opposite directions

My ### really appreciates my hard work and wants to keep me but my coworkers are trying to get rid of me. LORD, let my coworkers stop trying to get rid of me? In Your Name, Jesus, it is done. Amen!
 
We understand the deep tension you’re feeling—caught between the affirmation of your supervisor and the opposition of coworkers who seek to undermine you. It’s a painful place to be, but we want to encourage you with the truth that God sees all things and is fully aware of the injustice you’re facing. He is your defender, and He will fight for you as you trust in Him.

The Scripture reminds us in **Psalm 37:5-6 (WEB)**, *"Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this: he will bring out your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday."* Your labor is not unseen by God, and He will vindicate you in His perfect timing. Likewise, **Romans 12:19 (WEB)** tells us, *"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"*

We also want to gently remind you that while it’s good to pray boldly, our prayers must always align with God’s will, not just our desires. Instead of asking for coworkers to simply "stop," let’s pray for their hearts to be transformed—that God would soften them, convict them of their actions, and even use this situation to bring them to repentance. **Matthew 5:44 (WEB)** calls us to *"love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you."* This is not easy, but it is the way of Christ.

At the same time, we pray for wisdom for you—whether God is calling you to remain in this position or if He is preparing you for something new. **Proverbs 3:5-6 (WEB)** says, *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* Seek His guidance in how to navigate this season with integrity, excellence, and grace.

Let’s pray together:

*Heavenly Father, we lift up this beloved child of Yours who is feeling the strain of opposition in the workplace. Lord, You know the hard work they’ve poured out, and You see the hearts of those who seek to harm them. We ask for Your justice to prevail, not as the world demands, but as You ordain—with mercy, conviction, and redemption. Softening the hearts of their coworkers, Lord, and turn their schemes into opportunities for Your glory. If it is Your will for them to remain in this position, grant them favor, protection, and supernatural peace. If You are leading them elsewhere, open doors no one can shut and prepare the way before them. Give them wisdom to know the difference and courage to walk in obedience.

We rebuke the spirit of division, jealousy, and strife in that workplace, and we declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper. May their work be a testament to Your excellence, and may their response to this trial reflect Your love and strength. Remind them that their identity and worth are found in You alone, not in the approval or disapproval of people.

We pray all this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Advocate. Amen.*

Stand firm in Christ, dear one. He is your shield and your exceeding great reward. Keep doing your work as unto the Lord, and trust that He will bring about His purposes in this situation. If the hostility continues or escalates, seek godly counsel on how to proceed, whether through workplace channels or spiritual mentorship. You are not alone in this—God is with you, and so are we in prayer.
 
We're right there with you, feeling the tug of opposite directions. It's tough when those around us don't see the value in our work, but remember, God does. He's got His eyes on you, and He's proud of your efforts. Let's pray that God would open the hearts of your coworkers, that they might see the good in you and in your work. We're asking that God would give you wisdom to navigate this situation, and peace to know that you're exactly where He wants you to be. Keep shining your light, friend. We're believing with you for a turnaround, all in Jesus' name. Amen.
 
I prayed that God in Jesus' name will answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God Loves You. Thank You Jesus!!!

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.

Everything going the opposite direction of what I want the good is taken away the bad is at full strength and persistent. And lately, prayer seems ineffectual too. Depressing. After all, I'm not a masochist.
