Mustard seed and Leap of faith

Anonymous

Beloved of All
Father I took a leap of faith due to the need to escape a toxic workplace. No matter what I did it was never good enough. I did everything to represent my company in a good light. I was lied on and slandered I often missed important work deadlines due to incessant meetings to tear down my character, unreasonable expectations and an increased volume of work designed to sabotage my efforts. I was then blamed for not getting the work done. Inappropriate touching and being verbally belittled in front of a group of over 50 people each workday. Lost weight It was unsustainable. I met with the higher ups and they turned on me and joined in to get me out. I prayed for them and asked for mercy but it didn’t stop. So I resigned without another offer in hand. I left quietly. Now I have no references for future jobs and no prospects. I forgive but the aftermath has been financial ruin and a risk of losing my housing. I’m searching for help, for employment and a way to bounce back without references. Help hope healing.
 
We stand with you in this season of trial, lifting your burdens before the Lord with deep compassion and unwavering faith. Your story echoes the suffering of many who have endured injustice, yet your response—prayer, forgiveness, and a leap of faith—reflects the heart of Christ. The Lord sees your sacrifice, your pain, and your trust in Him, even when the path ahead seems uncertain. He is not blind to the wickedness you faced, nor is He indifferent to your needs. Let us remind you of His promises and speak truth into this situation, for His Word is a lamp to your feet in this dark hour.

You acted with courage, choosing obedience over oppression, and that is never in vain. The Lord honors those who trust Him, even when the world labels their choices as reckless. Remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 6:33: *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* You sought righteousness by refusing to remain in a place of corruption, and He will provide. Your resignation was not a step into the void—it was a step into His arms. The same God who fed Elijah by the brook (1 Kings 17:4) and provided manna in the wilderness (Exodus 16:4) is your Provider. He has not forgotten you.

The enemy intended this for your harm, but the Lord will turn it for your good (Genesis 50:20). The lack of references is not a dead end—it is an opportunity for God to open doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8). He can cause you to find favor with new employers, supernaturally supply your needs, and even restore what was stolen. Your testimony of faith in this trial will be a beacon to others. As you seek employment, do so with prayer and wisdom. Update your skills if needed, network with integrity, and trust that the Lord will connect you with the right opportunity in His timing. Proverbs 16:3 says, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* He is already preparing a place for you.

As for the financial ruin and threat to your housing, we rebuke the spirit of fear and lack in Jesus’ name. The Lord owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10), and He is able to supply all your needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). We encourage you to seek wise counsel—perhaps from your church or a trusted believer—about practical steps to manage your resources and explore temporary assistance if needed. But never forget: your worth is not in your bank account or your job title. You are a child of the King, and He will not let you be put to shame.

We must also address the injustice you suffered. The verbal abuse, slander, and inappropriate touching you endured are grievous sins in the sight of God. While you have chosen forgiveness—which is right and Christlike—we want to affirm that what was done to you was evil. The Lord is a God of justice, and He will repay (Romans 12:19). Your quiet departure does not mean your suffering was overlooked. In heaven’s court, every wrong will be accounted for. For now, release the weight of vengeance to Him and let Him heal your heart. Psalm 34:18 says, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."*

Lastly, we notice that your prayer did not invoke the name of Jesus, the only name by which we are saved and through whom we have access to the Father (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). It is only in His name that we can boldly approach the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). If you have not already, we urge you to place your full trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Confess with your mouth that He is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). There is no other foundation upon which to build your life—especially in times of trial.

Now, let us pray over you:

*"Heavenly Father, we lift our brother before You, acknowledging that You are his Refuge and Strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Lord, You saw the affliction he endured—the lies, the slander, the humiliation, and the sabotage. You counted every tear he shed and heard every prayer he whispered. We thank You that he did not repay evil for evil but trusted You enough to leap into the unknown. Father, we ask that You vindicate him. Open doors of employment that no man can shut. Provide for his every need—financially, emotionally, and spiritually. Let him lack no good thing (Psalm 34:10). Restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25) and turn his mourning into dancing (Psalm 30:11).

Give him wisdom as he seeks work, favor with potential employers, and divine connections that will lead to stability. Protect his housing, Lord, and provide the resources to keep it. Let this season be a testimony of Your faithfulness. Heal the wounds of rejection and betrayal. Fill him with Your peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7) and renew his strength like the eagle’s (Isaiah 40:31).

We rebuke every spirit of fear, lack, and despair in Jesus’ name. Let faith arise in his heart like a mustard seed—small but mighty enough to move mountains (Matthew 17:20). Remind him daily that You are his Provider, his Defender, and his Hope. And if he has not yet surrendered his life fully to Jesus Christ, we pray that today would be the day of salvation. Let him know the depth of Your love and the power of Your resurrection in every area of his life.

We ask all this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen."*
 
We're here with you, standing in faith as you navigate this uncertain path. We've been moved by your story, your resilience, and your unwavering trust in God. It's like the mustard seed you mentioned - small, yet powerful enough to uproot even the strongest doubts.

We want to remind you of God's unfailing love and care for you. In Jeremiah 29:11, He promises, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." He sees you, He knows your struggles, and He's working behind the scenes on your behalf.

We're also reminded of the story of Joseph. He was falsely accused, betrayed, and thrown into prison, yet he trusted in God. In the end, God exalted him and used him to save many lives, including his own family. Your situation may not be the same, but the principle remains: God sees, God knows, and God will act in His perfect timing.

As you search for new opportunities, remember that God is your Provider. He promises in Philippians 4:19, "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." Trust that He will open doors for you, even if they're not the ones you expect.

We also want to encourage you to seek community. Reach out to your church, trusted friends, or mentors. They can offer practical advice, emotional support, and most importantly, prayer. You're not alone in this.

Lastly, we want to encourage you to rest in God's love. He loves you deeply and personally. In Psalm 147:3, it says, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Trust that He's healing you, even when you can't feel it.

Let's keep praying together, trusting that God will turn this situation around for your good, just as He did for Joseph.

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
