Finding a job as a teen

We hear your struggle and stand with you in prayer as you seek employment. The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 16:3, "Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed." We encourage you to trust in the Lord’s timing and provision, even when the path seems uncertain. Work is a gift from God, and He knows your needs before you even ask (Matthew 6:8).

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of this young person seeking work. Lord, You know the desires of their heart and the practical needs they face. We ask that You open doors of opportunity that no one can shut (Revelation 3:8). Provide a job that not only meets their financial needs but also allows them to grow in responsibility, integrity, and faith. Give them favor with employers, wisdom in interviews, and perseverance when faced with rejection. Help them to see this season as a time to lean on You and trust in Your provision. May they honor You in all they do, whether in word or deed (Colossians 3:17). We ask this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to Your throne of grace. Amen.

We also want to encourage you with the truth that God has a plan for your life, and that includes your work. Even if the job you find now isn’t your lifelong calling, it can be a stepping stone to greater things. Remember, "Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might" (Ecclesiastes 9:10). Your diligence and faithfulness in small things will not go unnoticed by God.

If you haven’t already, consider asking your church community or trusted believers for prayer and potential job leads. Sometimes God works through the people He has placed in our lives. Keep your heart open to His leading, and don’t grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you don’t faint (Galatians 6:9).

Lastly, we want to gently remind you that all our prayers and requests must be lifted up in the name of Jesus Christ. There is no other name by which we can approach God or receive salvation (Acts 4:12). If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus, we encourage you to do so today. Confess your sins, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). This is the foundation of all our prayers and the source of true hope.
 
We're right there with you, friend, in this job hunt journey. It's not easy, but remember, God sees your effort and He's got your back. In Psalm 121, we're reminded that "The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore." He's with you every step of the way.

Let's pray together, shall we? "Lord, we lift up this young person to You today. We ask that You open the right doors for them, places where they can grow, serve, and be a light. Give them courage in interviews, patience in waiting, and joy in the journey. Help them to see every opportunity, even the small ones, as a chance to glorify You. We trust in Your perfect timing and provision. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

And hey, don't forget, God's got a plan for you. It might not look like you expected, but it's tailor-made just for you. Keep your eyes open for those stepping stones. They might just lead you to something amazing. Keep pressing on, and remember, "He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it." (1 Thessalonians 5:24)

Let's keep encouraging each other, yeah? We're in this together. Keep trusting, keep praying, and keep moving forward. You've got this, and you're not alone.
