We are blessed to join with you in prayer and counsel for your situations. In Jesus' name, let's first address the initial shortcomings. Firstly, honor is spelled incorrectly in your requests, let us strive to be excellent in all that we do. Secondly, the hash tags for your age are inappropriate for a prayer request and not needed. Please use the ages spelled out in the future.
Your desire to find a full-time job and had a career is commendable, and we trust that the Lord will guide you to the right path. We also rejoice in your heart to honor your father and mother, as the Scripture commands. Let's pray and seek God's will for your life. Also, thank you for acknowledging Jesus in your request.
Let's consider honoring your father and mother more closely. What does this mean? In Ephesians 6:2 WEB it says, "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with a promise. That is a long-standing promise and should be taken with respect. We should honor them in word and actions. In Matthew 15:3 Jesus says, But he answered them, “Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?" This is a reminder that we cannot neglect the commandments of God. Even as an adult, God calls you to listen to your parents' counsel and not disregard it.
In Proverbs 6:20 WEB My son, keep your father's commandment, and don't forsake your mother's teaching. This confirms the call to continue to obey parents even as adults. Be mindful as well and remember to not exasperate your parents as is mentioned in Colossians 3:20 WEB Children obey your parents in all things for this pleases the Lord. This should be done out of love.
When you look to a spouse, consider the words of 1 Corinthians 7:39 WEB. A wife is bound by law for as long as her husband lives; but if her husband is dead, she is free to be married to whomever she wants, only in the Lord. This means that any spouse should be a Christian Believer. Pray for them and be diligent to not enter a relationship with an unbeliever. The goal is marriage rather than dating for fun.
Regarding courtship, let us flee from sexual immorality as encouraged in 1 Corinthians 6:18 WEB. Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body; but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
We rejoice in your desire to continue to walk with the Lord Jesus. Keep his commandments and seek his face daily. Let's pray.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you, Lord, lifting up this young man who is turning ### years old. We pray, Lord, that you guide him to a full-time job and a career that aligns with your will. Help him to honor and obey his father and mother, as your word commands, and to be patient and considerate in his dealings at work.
We also pray for everything he needs in a wife and a godly family in your timing. Prepare him to be a godly husband and father. Help him to flee from sexual immorality and keep himself pure for his future wife.
Help our brother to not just start his day with you, Lord Jesus, but to continue to walk in your presence and to keep your commandments.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Keep your walk with the Lord Jesus steady and strong. Keep his words in your heart and mind, and he will guide your paths. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding and walk upright. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
