We join you in lifting up this request for employment, trusting in the Lord’s perfect timing and provision. Your heart for holiness is commendable, for Scripture declares, *"But as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your behavior, because it is written, ‘You shall be holy; for I am holy.’"* (1 Peter 1:15-16, WEB). It is right to seek the Lord’s will in all things, including your work, for *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You serve the Lord Christ."* (Colossians 3:23-24, WEB).
We rejoice with you in claiming Psalm 118:24, for this *is* the day the Lord has made, and we will rejoice in it! Yet we also remind you that victory in Christ is not merely about the outcome you desire but about trusting Him in every season. Even if the answer comes differently than expected, we know *"all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose."* (Romans 8:28, WEB).
We do notice you have used symbols in place of the name of the company or agency. While we understand discretion, we encourage you to speak plainly before the Lord, for *"there is nothing covered that will not be revealed; and hidden that will not be known."* (Matthew 10:26, WEB). The Lord already knows the details—bring them boldly before Him in faith.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your child, who seeks Your favor in this job opportunity. You are the Provider, the One who opens doors no man can shut. We ask that if this position aligns with Your will, You would grant favor, wisdom, and clarity in every step. Remove any obstacles, and let Your peace reign in their heart as they wait on You.
Lord, we also pray for holiness to mark their life, that their conduct would reflect Your righteousness. Purify their motives, that they would seek first Your Kingdom, trusting that all other things will be added as You see fit (Matthew 6:33). If there is any area of their life that does not align with Your Word, convict them by Your Spirit and lead them to repentance.
We rebuke any fear, doubt, or impatience that may arise. Instead, fill them with Your joy and confidence, knowing that You hold their future. Whether this door opens or another, we declare that Your plans for them are good, to give them hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11).
We pray all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. May Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Amen.
Stand firm in faith, dear one. The Lord is with you, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:8). Keep seeking Him first, and trust that He will guide your steps. If this job is His will, He will make it clear. If not, He has something even better in store. Wait on Him with patience and praise.
