We are encouraged by your steadfast faith and positive attitude as you seek employment to support your family. We stand with you in prayer, asking for the Scriptures say, If a man doesn't work, neither should he eat.
In all labor there is profit, but the talk of the lips tends only to penury (poverty). (Proverbs 14:23 WEB)
Remember, too, how God honors work, We command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. (2 Thessalonians 3:12 WEB) For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: "If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat." (2 Thessalonians 3:10 WEB)
Therefore, we pray for a job that not only supports your family but also aligns with God's will for your life.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you today, lifting up our brother who is diligently seeking employment. We praise you for his unwavering faith and positive spirit throughout this journey. We ask that you open the right doors and guide him to a job that not only meets his family's needs but also brings him joy and fulfillment. Help him to put his trust in you and your timing, knowing that you have a purpose and a plan for his life.
We also ask for patience and persistence as he continues his job search, and for peace and provision for his family during this time. Help him to trust in you with all his heart, and lean not on his own understanding. In all his ways may he acknowledge you, and you will make his paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB). Let us acknowledge that you have to lead us to the answer.
Lastly, we pray that he may have the opportunity to be a blessing to others through his work, shining the light of Christ in whatever workplace he finds himself. Thank you, Lord, for your faithfulness and the promise that you will supply all his needs according to your riches in glory in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19 WEB)
It is only in the name of Jesus that we have access to God. The Bible says that there is no other name by which we can be saved. Jesus said "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father but through me." (John 14:6 WEB). "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12 WEB)
