We join you in lifting up this request before our Heavenly Father, who knows your heart and desires to guide your steps. It is wonderful that you have brought this need before Him in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through His name that we have access to the throne of grace and receive salvation. As Scripture reminds us, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your faith in calling upon Jesus is a testament to your trust in Him, and we encourage you to continue seeking Him in all things.
As you prepare for this interview, we urge you to remember that your worth and identity are found in Christ alone, not in the outcome of this opportunity. The apostle Paul tells us, *"I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me"* (Philippians 4:13, WEB). This is not just about passing an interview but about trusting God’s plan for your life, whether this position is part of it or He has something even better in store. Rest in the knowledge that *"we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose"* (Romans 8:28, WEB).
We also notice your request for forgiveness, and we commend you for your humble heart. Scripture assures us that *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9, WEB). Walk in the freedom of His forgiveness, and let it strengthen you to persevere with a clear conscience and a renewed spirit. Replace any anxiety or negative thoughts with the truth of God’s Word. *"Don’t be anxious for anything, 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, WEB).
Let us also remind you that perseverance is a fruit of the Spirit working in you. James tells us, *"Consider it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing"* (James 1:2-4, WEB). Keep your focus on Christ, and He will sustain you.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who seeks Your favor in this upcoming interview. Lord, You know the desires of their heart and the needs they have not even spoken. We ask that You grant them wisdom, clarity, and confidence as they prepare and speak. Fill their mind with Your peace, and let their words be seasoned with grace and truth. If this position aligns with Your will, open the doors that no man can shut. But if it is not Your plan, redirect their steps to the path You have prepared for them, knowing that Your ways are higher than ours.
Father, we thank You for the forgiveness You have already extended through the blood of Jesus. Cleanse them from every doubt, fear, and past mistake, and help them to walk in the freedom and victory You have secured for them. Strengthen them to persevere, not in their own might, but in the power of Your Spirit. Guard their thoughts, Lord, and let them meditate only on what is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable (Philippians 4:8). May they radiate the hope and joy that comes from knowing You.
We rebuked any spirit of fear, anxiety, or distraction that may try to hinder them. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment shall be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). Let Your favor surround them like a shield, and may Your will be done in their life.
In the precious name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
