Friend’s Job

Snuireingate

Humble Servant
Dear Lord Jesus, Please help a friend of mine with his job. Let him get a raise and a promotion and take on these mean anti-Christian people at work. In Jesus Name Amen.
 
We join you in lifting up your friend’s work situation before the Lord, and we praise God that you have brought this request in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. Your heart for your friend’s provision and protection is commendable, and we share in your desire to see God’s will done in his life.

The Scriptures remind us that our labor is not in vain when it is done for the Lord. Colossians 3:23-24 says, *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ."* We encourage your friend to continue working with excellence, trusting that God sees his efforts and will provide in His perfect timing. A raise or promotion may come, but even if it does not, we pray he finds contentment in knowing his true reward is in Christ.

As for the hostility he faces from anti-Christian coworkers, we must remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of wickedness (Ephesians 6:12). Jesus warned us that the world would hate His followers because it first hated Him (John 15:18-19). Yet, He also commanded us to love our enemies, bless those who curse us, and pray for those who mistreat us (Matthew 5:44). Your friend’s response to these difficult people should reflect Christ’s love, even as he stands firm in his faith. 1 Peter 3:15-16 instructs us, *"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts; and always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, with humility and fear: having a good conscience; that, while you are spoken against as evildoers, they may be disappointed who curse your good way of life in Christ."*

Let us also remind your friend that God is his defender. Psalm 37:5-6 assures us, *"Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this: he will bring out your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday."* He does not need to take on these people in his own strength—God will fight for him if he remains faithful.

We pray now for your friend’s situation:

Heavenly Father, we lift up this man’s employment before You, asking that You provide for his needs according to Your riches in glory. If it is Your will, grant him favor for a raise and promotion, not for his own glory but so that he may be a greater witness for You in his workplace. Give him wisdom to navigate the hostility he faces, and fill him with Your peace that surpasses understanding. Help him to respond with grace and truth, reflecting Christ in all he does. Strengthen his faith, Lord, and remind him that his identity is found in You, not in his job title or the approval of men. Protect him from bitterness or fear, and let him rest in the knowledge that You are his shield and rewarder. May his light shine so brightly that even those who oppose him now will one day see Your love through him. We ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus, our Savior and Lord. Amen.

Finally, we encourage you to continue praying for your friend, that he would seek first God’s kingdom and righteousness, trusting that all these things—including his daily needs—will be added to him (Matthew 6:33). If he is not already doing so, urge him to spend time in prayer and Scripture daily, so that his heart remains aligned with God’s will above all else. May the Lord bless him with patience, perseverance, and a deep sense of His presence in this season.
 
We've been thinking about your friend's situation and wanted to chime in with a little more encouragement. We know it can be tough to feel unseen or unappreciated at work, especially when facing hostility from coworkers. But remember, God sees everything, and He's right there with your friend, cheering him on.

In Psalm 147:3, it says, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." We pray that your friend feels God's healing and comfort in this time. Let's remind him to cast his cares on the Lord, because He cares for him (1 Peter 5:7).

Also, we love how you've asked for a raise and promotion for your friend, but let's not forget that God's timing is perfect. If it's not the right time for a promotion, maybe there's something else God wants him to focus on or learn in his current role. Let's trust that God knows what's best and that He's working everything out for his good (Romans 8:28).

Lastly, we've been praying that God would give your friend a supernatural love for those who are hostile towards him. We believe that if he can show them the love of Jesus, it could open their hearts to the Gospel. Let's ask God to give him opportunities to share the hope that's within him (1 Peter 3:15), and to do so with kindness and respect, just as Jesus would.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.

Healed Spirit Soul And Body

 
We want to thank you for allowing us the honor of lifting up your friend’s work situation before the Lord these past few days. It has been our joy to stand with you in prayer, asking God to move mightily in his career—not just for a raise or promotion, but for His favor to rest upon him in a way that silences the enemy and brings glory to Christ. We know how challenging it can be to face opposition in the workplace, especially when it feels targeted at one’s faith, and we’ve been earnestly praying for your friend’s protection, wisdom, and boldness to shine as a light in that environment.

If the Lord has already begun to answer—whether through a change in circumstances, a shift in his heart, or even a newfound peace in the midst of the struggle—we’d love for you to share a praise report with us. There is nothing more encouraging than hearing how God is at work! But if the battle still feels heavy or the breakthrough hasn’t come yet, don’t hesitate to post an update or a new request. We are here to keep interceding, trusting that God’s timing is perfect and His plans for your friend are good, even when the path seems unclear.

Let’s continue to pray that your friend not only experiences professional success but also grows deeper in his reliance on Christ through this season. May the Lord grant him favor with those in authority, wisdom to navigate difficult relationships, and a spirit of excellence that points others to Jesus. And may you both be reminded that no weapon formed against him will prosper, for the Lord is his defender and reward.

We’re standing with you in faith, believing God is working even now.
