Please pray for me about work. Let me start by explaining everything at the beginning: I was hired at a Christian company that a church member found the job for me earlier this year. But I left after some concerns arose (many likely due to spiritual warfare which could have been ignored and overcome). I'm still not sure whether I made the right choice to quit. Since then, I've found jobs at secular companies but I feel that I keep running into obstacles where these jobs have things in them that conflict with my faith as a Christian whether it's predatory business practices or other things. I feel like I'm in a state of upheaval right now. I really want to just quit every job I have and just start fresh and hopefully find a job that won't conflict with my faith but financially, I need income for my family immediately. Please just pray for me about all this. Please also pray for me as I just had ANOTHER moment at an extra job I have where I promoted something against my faith even though I was trying to work around doing so. I don't want to go back to that job anymore. I'm tired of all this. I don't want to keep having moments like that. Please also pray for a FINAL end to constant harassment from a group of likely possessed people who have been harassing me under the influence of demons for YEARS. On top of all the stress I already have in my life, the ongoing situation with them just makes life ten times harder. It's horrible and they're so deranged and this situation is beyond creepy. Thank you.

We hear your cry for help and stand with you in this season of turmoil and spiritual warfare. The struggle you describe, between financial necessity and the desire to honor God in your work, along with the relentless harassment you’ve endured, is heavy, and we lift it all before the Lord with urgency and compassion.
First, we want to address the spiritual battle you’re facing. The Bible makes it clear that our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:12). The harassment you’ve endured for years is not merely human opposition; it is demonic, and it must be confronted with the authority of Jesus Christ. We rebuke every assignment of the enemy against you in the name of Jesus. The Word declares that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). We pray that you would walk in that power, standing firm on the truth that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). The harassment must cease, and we command every demonic influence behind it to flee in Jesus’ name.
We also want to speak to the conviction you feel about your work. It is clear that your heart desires to honor God in all you do, and that is commendable. The Bible tells us, "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men" (Colossians 3:23). However, we must also acknowledge the tension you feel when your work requires you to promote or participate in things that conflict with your faith. This is not a small matter. The Lord calls us to be set apart, to be in the world but not of it (John 17:14-16). If your work is leading you to compromise your convictions, it is right to seek God’s guidance for a way out. But we must also remember that God provides for His children. He knows your financial needs, and He will not abandon you (Matthew 6:31-33). We encourage you to seek Him earnestly for wisdom, trusting that He will open doors that align with His will for your life.
We understand the weight of your decision to leave the Christian company earlier this year. It is natural to second-guess yourself, especially when the path forward seems unclear. But we want to remind you that God is not a God of confusion but of peace (1 Corinthians 14:33). If you left that job out of conviction, we believe the Lord will honor that. However, if fear or spiritual warfare clouded your judgment, we pray that He would bring clarity and restore what was lost. Either way, we trust that God is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28).
Regarding the moments when you’ve felt forced to promote things against your faith, we want to address this with both grace and truth. Compromise in these areas can grieve the Holy Spirit and weaken your spiritual resolve. The Bible warns us, "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind" (Romans 12:2). We pray that God would give you the strength to stand firm in your convictions, even when it is difficult. If that means leaving a job that requires you to violate your conscience, we believe the Lord will provide another way. But we also encourage you to seek godly counsel, perhaps from your pastor or a trusted mentor, to help you navigate these decisions with wisdom.
We also want to gently remind you of the importance of grounding your prayers and your life in the name of Jesus Christ. There is no other name by which we can approach the Father or find salvation (Acts 4:12). Jesus Himself said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6). If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your life fully to Him, trusting in His sacrifice on the cross for your sins and inviting Him to be the Lord of every area of your life. This is the foundation upon which all victory is built.
Let us pray for you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister who is carrying such a heavy burden. Lord, we ask that You would surround them with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). We rebuke every spirit of harassment and oppression that has been tormenting them for years. In the name of Jesus, we command every demonic influence to flee and declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Father, we ask that You would break every chain of fear, confusion, and spiritual attack in their life.
Lord, we lift up their work situation to You. You know the financial needs of their family, and You are their Provider. We ask that You would open doors of opportunity that align with Your will, where they can work with integrity and honor You in all they do. Give them wisdom to discern when to stand firm and when to seek a new path. If there are areas where they have compromised their faith, we ask that You would forgive them and restore their resolve to walk in holiness.
Father, we also pray for clarity regarding the decision to leave the Christian company earlier this year. If it was the right choice, we ask that You would confirm that in their heart. If there was fear or deception involved, we ask that You would reveal the truth and lead them back to Your perfect will. Lord, we trust that You are working all things together for their good, and we ask that You would give them the strength to persevere in faith.
We pray for protection over their mind, body, and spirit. Surround them with godly community, people who will encourage them, pray for them, and stand with them in this battle. Lord, we ask that You would fill them with Your Holy Spirit, giving them boldness to resist the enemy and walk in the victory that is already theirs through Christ Jesus.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would draw them closer to You. If there are areas of their life that need to be surrendered to You, we pray that You would reveal them and give them the grace to let go. We thank You that You are a God who hears our prayers and moves on our behalf. We trust in Your faithfulness and declare that this season of upheaval will not last forever. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to hold fast to the promises of God. This is not the end of your story. The enemy may have meant this season for harm, but God will use it for good (Genesis 50:20). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). Seek Him daily, and do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9). You are not alone in this battle, and we stand with you, believing that God will bring breakthrough and restoration.

We really feel for you as you walk through this difficult season. Leaving that Christian workplace must have been so hard, especially with all the spiritual warfare you mentioned. It's understandable to second-guess yourself when you're trying so hard to honor God.
We've been there before too - wanting to glorify God in our work but feeling trapped by financial needs. God sees every prayer and every sacrifice you've made to stand firm in your faith. He hasn't forgotten you in this season of waiting.
The harassment you've endured for years sounds absolutely exhausting. We're so sorry you've had to carry that burden alone for so long. Jesus sees every tear and every moment of fear you've faced. We pray that His perfect peace would guard your heart and mind right now, and that He would surround you with His protection like a shield.
Father, we ask that You would open doors no man can shut - jobs that allow our brother/sister to work with integrity while providing for their family. Give them supernatural favor in interviews and job searches. Where there's been compromise, we ask for repentance and restoration. Where there's been persecution, we claim Psalm 34:19 - that the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those crushed in spirit.
May they feel God's nearness in this wilderness season. May their faith not waiver but grow stronger through the waiting. Remind them daily that their labor in the Lord is never in vain. In Jesus' name we pray.
