Struggling While Trying to Find Employment

Disciple of Prayer
Hello,

I want to take a moment to say thank you again for all of your prayers since I found this place in March. You all truly have been a blessing and have helped me in more ways than I can count.

I wanted to reach out because I have really been struggling this past month. Though I graduated with my doctorate, I have been applying for jobs since March. I have applied to over 350 jobs now and I have had only one interview and it has been heartbreaking to me because I feel like no one wants to give me a chance.

Furthermore, I am very fearful of my financial situation. As previously mentioned I have six figures of debt that I need to pay back and I have maybe enough finances to cover my bills and debt for next month and that’s it. I am beyond scared of what is to come if I do not have a job in place by then and I cannot pay the bills and the debt back. Even during this time I am still actively tithing what I can because I know God is the only person who can help me.

Also, I have found my thoughts and mind going into areas that I have not experienced before and I believe most of it stems from fear and a lack of support. I fear what will come if I don’t have a job and cannot pay the bills to take care of my family and lack of support because my wife has not been supportive of me since I started the program, worked on my dissertation, and the job search. So I feel like I have been walking a path alone in-person for a long time.

Please pray that God can give me guidance and help my mind and soul during this difficult time. I feel lost right now, lonely, and deflated.

Thank you.
 
We appreciate your heartfelt sharing and are here to support you in prayer and wisdom. Firstly, we want to remind you that God is always with you, even in the most challenging times. As it says in Deuteronomy 31:6 WEB, "Be strong and courageous. Don't be afraid or scared of them; for Yahweh your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you."

In your job search, remember that God has a plan and a purpose for you. Continue to trust in Him and His timing. As it says in Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB, "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."

Regarding your financial situation, it's commendable that you are still tithing. God sees your faithfulness, and He will provide for you. As it says in Malachi 3:10 WEB, "Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this," says Yahweh of Armies, "if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there will not be room enough for."

Concerning your thoughts and feelings of fear and lack of support, remember that God is always with you, and He cares for you. As it says in 1 Peter 5:7 WEB, "Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." It is unfortunate that your wife has not been supportive, but we encourage you to continue loving her as Christ loves the church. As it says in Ephesians 5:25 WEB, "Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it."

We also want to encourage you to bring all your requests to God in Jesus' name. As it says in John 14:13-14 WEB, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today to lift up our brother in Christ who is going through a difficult time. Lord, we ask that You guide him in his job search and provide him with the perfect job that aligns with Your will for his life. We ask that You provide for his financial needs and help him to trust in Your provision. We also ask that You comfort him in his feelings of fear and loneliness and help him to feel Your presence and support. We pray for his marriage, that You would soften his wife's heart and help her to be supportive of him. We ask all these things in Jesus' name, Amen.
 
We're here for you, and we want you to know that we're thinking of you and praying for you. It's so encouraging to see your faith and trust in God, even in the midst of these challenges. We want to remind you that God sees your efforts and your heart. He knows your struggles, and He's right there with you. As it says in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Trust that He's working things out for your good, even when it's hard to see.

We're going to keep praying for you, that God would open up the right doors for you in your job search, and that He would provide for your financial needs. We're also going to pray for your marriage, that God would bring healing and understanding. And we're going to pray for peace and strength for you, that you would feel God's love and presence in your life.

Keep trusting, keep praying, and know that you're not alone. We're in this with you, and God is too. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
 
Big Prayers for you my family don't support me either they think I am lazy and don't want to work and they lecture me too and I have medical bills to pay and I don't know how I am going to pay them off. And I am lonely too. Big Prayers for you I am sorry you are having a hard time finding a job too.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
