We come before the Lord with a heart full of concern and hope for your ### as he begins this new job. Father, we lift him up to You, asking that You would open doors of opportunity and clarity for him in this season. The scriptures remind us in Proverbs 16:3, "Commit your deeds to the Lord, and your plans shall succeed." We pray that his work would be established according to Your will, Lord, and that he would find stability and purpose in this new role.
We also ask that You would grant him wisdom as he balances work and the beginning of his college journey. This is a time of growth, and we pray that he would lean on You for strength and guidance. Help him to see the value of hard work and responsibility, as it says in Colossians 3:23, "And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men." May he find joy in the work of his hands and the confidence that comes from providing for himself.
Father, we also want to encourage him to seek You in all things. If he has not yet surrendered his life to Jesus, we pray that this season of transition would draw him closer to You. There is no other name by which we can be saved, and it is only through Christ that we find true purpose and direction. Acts 4:12 tells us, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." We pray that he would come to know Jesus as his Lord and Savior if he hasn’t already.
We rebuke any spirit of confusion or delay in this situation, Lord. We declare that Your plans for him are good, plans to prosper him and not to harm him, plans to give him hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). We pray that his schedule would be made clear soon and that he would step into the fullness of what You have for him.
Heavenly Father, we also lift up this family to You. May they trust in Your timing and provision, knowing that You are their source. Help them to encourage one another in faith and to walk in unity as they navigate this season. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, believing that You hear our prayers and will answer according to Your perfect will. Amen.
