employment

[Giloulfira]

Feel like I am working in a hostile work environment with the new boss. I keep looking for employment locally and not finding much. Not sure how much I can put up with here... walking in love, I'm trying.

We understand the heavy burden you’re carrying in this difficult season, and we want to lift you up in prayer while also speaking truth into your situation. The workplace can indeed become a battleground when leadership is hostile, and the strain of seeking new employment without success can feel overwhelming. Yet we are reminded in Scripture that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of darkness (Ephesians 6:12). Your commitment to walking in love—even in the midst of this trial—is commendable, for love covers a multitude of sins (1 Peter 4:8) and reflects Christ to those around you.

That said, we must also acknowledge that enduring hostility is not the same as enabling abuse or remaining in a place where your well-being—spiritually, emotionally, or physically—is at risk. The Bible calls us to wisdom and discernment, urging us to be "as shrewd as serpents and as innocent as doves" (Matthew 10:16). If this environment is truly toxic, it may be time to prayerfully consider whether staying is honoring to God or if He is calling you to step out in faith, even if the path ahead isn’t yet clear. Trust that He goes before you, as He did for the Israelites in the wilderness (Deuteronomy 31:8), and that He will provide in His perfect timing.

We also want to gently address something missing in your request: the name of Jesus. There is no other name under heaven by which we are saved (Acts 4:12), and it is only through Him that we have access to the Father (John 14:6). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Christ, we urge you to do so today—repent of your sins, believe in His death and resurrection, and invite Him to be your Lord and Savior. If you *have* trusted in Him, then we encourage you to boldly approach the throne of grace in His name, for He is your advocate and intercessor (Hebrews 4:16, 1 John 2:1).

Let us pray for you now:

Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother/sister to You, knowing that You see the hostility they face and the weariness in their heart. Lord, grant them supernatural endurance to walk in love, yet also the wisdom to know when to stand firm and when to step away. Open doors of employment that no man can shut (Revelation 3:8), and let favor surround them like a shield (Psalm 5:12). If this season is a refining fire, purify their heart and strengthen their faith. If it is a test of obedience, give them courage to act in alignment with Your will. Provide for their every need—financially, emotionally, and spiritually—and let them rest in the assurance that You are their Provider (Philippians 4:19).

We rebuke every spirit of fear, anxiety, and discouragement in the name of Jesus. No weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, they shall condemn. Father, if there is any bitterness or unforgiveness taking root in their heart, uproot it now and replace it with Your peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7). Let them be a light in this darkness, but guard their soul from the enemy’s schemes.

We ask all this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. Amen.

In the meantime, we encourage you to:
1. **Seek God’s direction daily**—ask Him specifically if He wants you to remain in this job or pursue other opportunities (James 1:5).
2. **Document any hostility**—if this environment crosses into harassment or discrimination, you may need to take appropriate action while still walking in integrity.
3. **Expand your job search**—consider remote work, relocating if possible, or networking in Christian communities where godly connections might open doors.
4. **Guard your heart**—spend time in Scripture and worship to renew your mind (Romans 12:2) and avoid letting bitterness take hold.

You are not forgotten, and your labor in the Lord is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58). Keep pressing forward, and trust that God is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28).

We're right there with you, friend, feeling the weight of a hostile work environment and the uncertainty of finding new employment. It's tough, we know, but remember, we're not fighting alone. Jesus is by our side, and He's given us His strength to endure and His wisdom to navigate these waters.

We've been praying for you, asking God to grant you supernatural endurance to keep loving, even in the face of adversity. We've asked Him to open doors of employment that no one can shut, and to surround you with favor like a shield. We've also prayed for discernment, that God would give you wisdom to know when to stand firm and when to step away, if staying is no longer honoring to Him or if He's calling you to step out in faith.

We've been reminded of the Israelites in the wilderness. God went before them, providing for their every need, and He's doing the same for you. Trust that He's got this, and He'll provide in His perfect timing.

Let's keep seeking God's direction daily, asking Him specifically about your job situation. If this environment becomes truly toxic, it might be time to consider stepping out in faith, even if the path ahead isn't clear yet. And remember, God is your advocate and intercessor. You can boldly approach the throne of grace in Jesus' name.

In the meantime, let's keep our hearts guarded, spending time in Scripture and worship, and avoiding bitterness. Keep pressing forward, friend. God is working all things together for your good. You're not forgotten, and your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
