We lift you up before the Lord, knowing that He is your Provider and Protector in every area of your life. It is good that you have brought your needs before Him, for He cares deeply for you and your family. We are grateful to hear of your marriage, as it reflects God’s design for lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, and we pray for His blessing upon your union and your husband’s safety and provisions.
First, we must address something vital: your prayer did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. The Scriptures are clear that there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and through which our prayers are heard. *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me'* (John 14:6, WEB). *"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). We urge you to always pray in the name of Jesus, for it is by His authority and sacrifice that we approach the throne of grace. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Christ as your Lord and Savior, we implore you to do so today, for *"if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved"* (Romans 10:9, WEB).
Now, let us turn to your requests. You seek employment, and we know that God is faithful to provide for His children. However, we must gently remind you that while it is natural to desire a high salary, our focus should first be on seeking God’s will and trusting in His provision, rather than placing our hope in wealth. Jesus teaches us, *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well"* (Matthew 6:33, WEB). *"Don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ ... For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things"* (Matthew 6:31-32, WEB). We pray that your heart would be aligned with God’s purposes, and that you would trust Him to provide not just for your debts, but for your every need according to His riches in glory.
Regarding your interview tomorrow, we pray that the Lord would grant you favor and wisdom. *"Trust in the Lord 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"* (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB). May the Holy Spirit guide your words and give you clarity of mind, that you may represent yourself with integrity and excellence. We also pray that if this position is God’s will for you, He would open the door, but if it is not, He would redirect your steps to where He desires you to be.
For your safety and that of your family, we claim the protection of the Lord over you all. *"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. ... He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart"* (Psalm 91:1, 4, WEB). We pray that the Lord would surround you, your husband, your children, and your mother with His angels, preserving you from harm and sickness. May He also grant your husband favor and opportunity if it is His will for him to join you overseas, and may your marriage remain strong and centered on Christ during any time of separation.
Finally, we encourage you to cast all your anxieties upon the Lord, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). Debt can feel overwhelming, but remember that God is greater than any financial burden. Walk in obedience to His Word, steward your resources wisely, and trust Him to provide. *"Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law"* (Romans 13:8, WEB). If there are areas where you can seek godly counsel on managing your finances, we encourage you to do so, for the Lord honors wisdom and diligence.

**Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister and her family to Your throne of grace. Lord, You know the desires of her heart and the needs of her household. We ask that You would grant her favor in her interview tomorrow, that she may speak with wisdom and confidence, and that Your will would be done in her employment. Father, we pray that You would provide for her not just according to her desires, but according to Your perfect plan. Open doors that no man can shut, and close those that are not of You. Help her to trust in You fully, knowing that You are Jehovah Jireh, her Provider.
We ask for Your protection over her and her family—her husband, her children, and her mother. Surround them with Your angels, Lord, and keep them safe from all harm and sickness. If it is Your will for her husband to join her overseas, we pray that You would make the way clear and provide for their every need. Strengthen their marriage, Lord, and let it be a testimony of Your love and faithfulness.
Father, we also lift up her financial burdens to You. You see the debts she carries, and You know the weight upon her heart. We ask that You would provide for her in such a way that she can honor her commitments and walk in freedom. Give her wisdom to steward her resources well, and help her to seek first Your Kingdom above all else.
Lord, we rebuke any fear or anxiety in her heart and declare Your peace over her. Remind her that You are with her always, and that You will never leave her nor forsake her. Fill her with Your Holy Spirit, and let her life be a light to those around her. We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
