We are thrilled to join you in prayer for this new educational opportunity. We trust that God has a plan and a purpose for your life, and we believe that this opportunity is a part of that plan.
Let us remember together that God wants us to succeed, as written in Jeremiah 29:11, For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.
In your prayer request, make sure to mention Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to God the Father. And 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
Through Jesus Christ, and trusting in His will, we pray that this educational opportunity will equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to secure a decent job. We pray that you will not only find a job but that you will find work that brings you joy and allows you to use your unique gifts and talents to glorify God.
We want to encourage you to trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6. Remember that God is faithful, and He will direct your steps as you seek His will.
We also pray that you will find favor with your instructors and future employers, and that you will be a light for Christ in whatever environment you find yourself in. Let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:16.
Together, let us pray.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is seeking Your will for their life. We thank You for this new educational opportunity and pray that it will be a blessing in their life. We ask that You guide them in their studies and prepare them for a job that will not only meet their needs but allow them to serve You and others.
We pray that You will open doors that no man can shut and that You will give them favor with those in authority. We ask that You will use this opportunity to draw them closer to You and to make Your will for their life clear.
We trust in Your promises, Lord, and we thank You for the good plans You have for our brother/sister. We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
