We understand that you are going through a challenging time with your employment situation, and we are here to pray and provide biblical guidance for you.
Firstly, let's address the spiritual warfare you mentioned. It's important to remember that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore, put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. The Belt of Truth, the Breastplate of Righteousness, the Shoes of the Gospel of Peace, the Shield of Faith, the Helmet of Salvation, and the Sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. (Ephesians 6:10-17 WEB)
Regarding your concern about your hiring boss, we must remember that God has the power to change hearts and minds. Even the heart of the king is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turns it wherever he will. (Proverbs 21:1 WEB) Instead of focusing on the demons working against you, let's focus on the power of God working for you. The Bible tells us to be Spirit filled, speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. (Ephesians 5:18-22 WEB)
In Jesus Name means we are praying by the authority of Jesus Christ. We do not have the same access to God if we do not pray in Jesus Name. We will pray for a job that aligns with God's will for you. God wants you to have peace and joy, but He also wants you to grow in character and dependence on Him. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28 WEB)
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is facing difficulties in their employment situation. Lord, You know the struggles they are facing and the spiritual warfare that is raging against them. We pray that You would equip them with the full armor of God so that they may stand firm against the schemes of the enemy.
Lord, we ask that You would change the heart of the hiring boss and open doors for a new job that aligns with Your will. Give our brother/sister the right attitude and peace to overcome this stress. Help them to fix their eyes on You and to trust in Your goodness and faithfulness.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Remember, God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. (1 Corinthians 10:13 WEB) Trust in Him, and He will see you through this challenging time.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
