Looking for work

Anonymous

Beloved of All
Dear Lord in Jesus name, I ask for protection and open doors to employment. Tomorrow, I plan to run some errands. I would also like to go to stores to ask if they need employees. I’m desperate for employment because I’m falling far behind on financial obligations. I’ve already been applying for work online. Many many many applications even to fast food restaurants. I will try supermarkets, pet stores, pharmacies, whatever I can do to secure HONEST godly income.
 
We join you in lifting up your need for employment before the Lord, and we are grateful you have called upon the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and can boldly approach His throne of grace. Your diligence in seeking work—both online and in person—reflects a heart of responsibility and trust in God’s provision, and we commend you for that. The Lord sees your efforts, and He is faithful to provide for His children. Let us remind you of the promise in **Philippians 4:19**: *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* You are not forgotten, and your desperation is not unseen by Him.

At the same time, we encourage you to guard your heart against fear and anxiety, for the Lord tells us in **Matthew 6:31-33**, *"Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* Your focus on *honest* and *godly* income is pleasing to the Lord, and we pray He opens doors that align with His will for your life. Even in this season of waiting, He is refining your trust in Him.

As you go out tomorrow to inquire in person, we pray for divine appointments—that the Lord would direct your steps to the right places at the right times, and that He would give you favor with those in authority to hire. Remember the words of **Proverbs 16:3**: *"Commit your deeds to the Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* This is not a guarantee of immediate employment, but a promise that when we surrender our efforts to Him, He will guide and establish our steps.

We also urge you to examine your skills, experiences, and even areas where you might need growth. If there are opportunities for training, certification, or further education that could enhance your employability, ask the Lord for wisdom and provision in those areas as well. **Proverbs 22:29** reminds us, *"Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve kings. He won’t serve obscure men."* While you are willing to take any honest work, pray that the Lord would also lead you to roles where your gifts can be used effectively for His glory.

Lastly, we want to remind you that your worth is not defined by your employment status or financial situation. You are a child of God, redeemed by the blood of Jesus, and He has a purpose for you in this season—even if it feels difficult. **1 Peter 5:7** says, *"Cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you."* Release your burdens to Him afresh today, and trust that He is working behind the scenes on your behalf.

**Our Prayer for You:**
Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother/sister to You, asking for Your divine intervention in their search for employment. Lord, You know their financial needs, the stress they carry, and the desperation they feel. We ask that You open doors that no man can shut, leading them to honest, godly work that provides not just for their needs but also allows them to be a light for Your Kingdom. Give them favor with employers, wisdom in their interactions, and perseverance in this season.

Father, we rebuke any spirit of fear, anxiety, or discouragement that may be attacking their mind. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses understanding, and remind them that You are their Provider—Jehovah Jireh. If there are areas where they need to grow in skills or preparation, reveal those to them and provide the means to pursue them.

We also pray for supernatural provision in the meantime. Meet their financial obligations in ways they cannot foresee, whether through unexpected help, delayed consequences, or Your direct intervention. Let them see Your hand at work in their life, strengthening their faith.

Most of all, Lord, draw them closer to You in this time. Let them experience Your presence and love in a deeper way, knowing that You are with them and will never forsake them. We ask all this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
 
We're right there with you, friend, as you seek employment. It's tough out there, but we know that God sees your efforts and hears your prayers. We're claiming that promise in Philippians 4:19 with you - "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." He's got this, and He's got you.

As you head out tomorrow, we're praying for God to guide your steps. We're believing for divine appointments, open doors, and favor with those in authority. Remember, it's not just about finding a job, but also about finding the right fit for you and God's purposes. Let's trust that He's working all things together for your good and His glory (Romans 8:28).

And hey, don't forget to take care of yourself too. It's okay to feel overwhelmed, but try not to let anxiety take over. God is bigger than any situation you're facing. Cast your cares on Him (1 Peter 5:7), and trust that He's got a plan.

We're believing for a breakthrough, friend. Keep your chin up, your heart open, and your hands busy. God's got this, and He's got you. Let's keep trusting and keep moving forward, one step at a time. We're in this together, and we're believing for a miracle!
 
I prayed that God in Jesus' name will answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God Loves You. Thank You Jesus!!!
