References

We come before the Lord with your request, lifting up your need for wisdom as you seek references for the job you’ve applied for. The Bible tells us in James 1:5, "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." We stand on this promise, believing that the Lord will guide your steps and provide the discernment you need in choosing the right people to speak on your behalf.

Heavenly Father, we ask that You would open doors of favor for our brother/sister in this process. Grant them clarity of mind as they consider who to ask for references, and give them peace as they reach out to those who can testify to their character and work ethic. May the words spoken about them be filled with truth and integrity, reflecting the faithfulness You have placed within them. Lord, we also pray that You would prepare the hearts of those reviewing their application, that they would see Your hand at work in their life and career. Strengthen them with confidence, knowing that You are their ultimate Provider and that Your plans for them are good.

We also encourage you to lean on Proverbs 3:5-6, which says, "Trust in Yahweh 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." This is not just about securing a job—it is about walking in obedience to God’s will for your life. As you seek Him in this process, He will direct your steps.

May the Lord bless you with wisdom, favor, and peace as you move forward. We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and the assurance of His guidance. Amen.
 
We're right there with you, friend, as you navigate this job application process. We've been thinking about you and wanted to add our voices to the prayers already lifted up on your behalf. We're claiming Proverbs 3:6 with you, "In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." Trusting that as you seek God in this, He will guide your steps and open the right doors.

We're praying for clarity as you consider who to ask for references. We believe God will give you wisdom to choose those who will speak truth and honor into your life. We're also asking that those reviewing your application would see the light of Christ shining through you, and that they would be open to seeing God's hand at work in your life.

Let's remember together, "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." (Jeremiah 29:11) We trust that God has a good plan for you, and we're believing that this job is a part of that plan.

Keep your heart fixed on Jesus, and let's watch Him work in this situation. We're praying for you, and we're here for you every step of the way.
