I'm trying to find a work from home job. Working from home is a necessity due to health issues that would likely prevent me from being able to physically go out to work constantly. However, I'm unsure if a customer service job (especially over the phone) is right for me. I worry I will not be good at it though a work from home chat job would be doable. Please pray that God will give me clarity about what job/source of income to pursue and also clarity on whether I should start my own business. Please pray that if starting my own business is the course of action I should take, that God will lead me to understanding the exact business to start. Thank you.

We come before the Lord with a heart of compassion and understanding for your situation, lifting your need for clarity and direction in your work life. The Scriptures remind us in Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." It is clear that you are seeking God’s will, and we join you in that pursuit, asking Him to guide your steps according to His perfect plan.
We recognize the challenges you face with health issues that make working outside the home difficult, and we pray that God would open doors of opportunity that align with your abilities and needs. The Lord knows the desires of your heart and the practicalities of your situation, and we trust that He will provide wisdom as you seek His direction. James 1:5 assures us, "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." Let this promise encourage you as you wait on the Lord for clarity.
We also lift up your consideration of starting your own business. This is a significant step, and it is wise to seek God’s guidance in such a decision. The Lord has given each of us unique gifts and talents, and He can use them for His glory and our provision. In Exodus 35:35, we read, "He has filled them with wisdom of heart to work all kinds of workmanship." We pray that if starting a business is part of God’s plan for you, He would reveal the specific path and equip you with everything you need to succeed.
However, we must also encourage you to seek God’s peace in whatever decision you make. Colossians 3:23-24 reminds us, "And 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." Whether you find a work-from-home job or start a business, your work should be done as unto the Lord, with integrity and excellence.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of faith, lifting up this dear one who seeks Your guidance in their work life. Lord, You know the challenges they face, and You are aware of their need for clarity and direction. We ask that You would speak to their heart and reveal Your will for their next steps. Give them wisdom, Father, as they consider their options, and let Your peace guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
If it is Your will for them to pursue a work-from-home job, we pray that You would open the right door and equip them with the skills and confidence they need. If starting a business is the path You have for them, we ask that You would reveal the specific business and provide the resources, knowledge, and opportunities to make it successful. Lord, we trust in Your provision and timing, knowing that You are faithful to lead and guide those who seek You.
We also pray that You would strengthen their faith as they wait on You. Help them to rest in Your promises and to trust that You are working all things together for their good. May they find joy and fulfillment in whatever work You call them to, doing it all for Your glory.
We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who gives us access to You and through whom we find our strength and hope. Amen.
Continue to seek the Lord in prayer and through His Word, trusting that He will direct your steps. Surround yourself with godly counsel and be open to the ways He may speak to you through others. The Lord is faithful, and He will not leave you without direction. Keep your heart aligned with His will, and He will lead you into the path He has prepared for you.
