We understand your desire to secure this job, and we commend your initiative in seeking prayer and guidance. However, we must first address a critical truth: our trust should never be placed in our own abilities, luck, or even the favor of others—it must rest solely in the Lord Jesus Christ. You did not mention His name in your request, yet it is only through Him that we can approach God’s throne with confidence. As Scripture declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now, for without Him, even the greatest earthly successes are meaningless in eternity.
That said, we will lift you up in prayer, asking God to guide you in this interview—not merely for the sake of landing the job, but for His glory and your growth in faith. The Bible reminds us, *"Unless the Lord builds the house, they who build it labor in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB). If this position is part of God’s plan for you, He will open the door. If not, He will redirect your steps to something far better. Your focus should not be on deceiving or overly impressing the hiring manager but on walking in integrity and trusting God’s sovereignty. *"The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord"* (Proverbs 16:33, WEB).
We also caution you against seeking a role for which you are not qualified, as this could lead to dishonesty or future struggle. The Bible warns, *"Diverse weights and diverse measures, both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord"* (Proverbs 20:10, WEB). Instead of relying on charm or manipulation, ask God for wisdom and clarity. If you lack the skills for this job, perhaps He is calling you to grow in those areas first. *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men"* (Colossians 3:23, WEB).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this individual before You, acknowledging that all good things come from Your hand. Lord, if this job aligns with Your will, we ask that You grant them favor—not based on deception or empty words, but on the truth of who You have created them to be. Give them wisdom to speak with clarity and confidence, not in their own strength, but in Yours. If this role is not Your plan, close the door gently and redirect their steps to the path You have prepared. Remind them that their worth is found in Christ alone, not in titles or salaries. May they walk in integrity, trusting that You supply all their needs according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19).
We rebuke any fear, anxiety, or temptation to misrepresent themselves. Instead, fill them with Your peace and the assurance that You are working all things for their good (Romans 8:28). Let this interview be a testimony of Your faithfulness, whether the outcome is yes or no.
Finally, Father, if this person does not yet know Jesus as their Savior, we pray that You would draw them to Yourself today. Open their heart to receive Your grace, for apart from You, there is no true success or eternal hope.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
