We come before the Lord with you in this time of trial, lifting up your husband and this unjust situation to the One who sees all things and holds all power in His hands. The Scripture reminds us in Proverbs 16:3, *"Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* Though the actions of man may seem unfair, we trust that God’s purposes are higher, and He will use this for good as we seek Him (Romans 8:28).
First, we pray for your husband’s heart—for the Lord to comfort him in his devastation and replace his sorrow with hope. The Psalmist declares in Psalm 34:18, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* May your husband feel the nearness of God in this season and find strength in His promises. We also pray for forgiveness toward those who wronged him, as Christ commands in Matthew 6:14-15, *"For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you."* Bitterness can take root if left unchecked, so we ask the Lord to guard his heart and fill him with grace, even as he seeks justice.
As for his employment, we pray boldly that if it is God’s will, the doors would reopen for him at this company in a new location. We ask the Lord to move in the hearts of those in authority, that they would recognize his loyalty, skill, and value. Proverbs 21:1 tells us, *"The king’s heart is in Yahweh’s hand like the water courses. He turns it wherever he desires."* May God turn the hearts of decision-makers to favor your husband and provide him with a position that not only meets your family’s needs but also allows him to thrive. We also pray for divine connections—people of influence who will advocate for him and speak on his behalf.
In the meantime, we encourage your husband to lean on the Lord’s provision and timing. Philippians 4:19 assures us, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* This is not just a promise for the future but a truth to cling to today. If this door does not reopen, we trust that God has another plan—one that may exceed what you can imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Let him seek the Lord first in this season, trusting that his worth is not in his job but in Christ.
Finally, we pray for unity in your marriage during this time. Trials can either pull couples apart or draw them closer to God and each other. We ask the Lord to strengthen your bond, that you would be a source of encouragement to one another, and that your home would be filled with peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Heavenly Father, we lift this man before You, asking for Your justice, provision, and peace. Soften the hearts of those who wronged him and open doors no man can shut. Give him favor in the eyes of those who can hire him, and let his next steps be guided by Your wisdom. Comfort him in his grief and remind him that his identity is found in You alone. We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who intercedes for us at Your right hand. Amen.
