We join with you in prayer and we hear your heart's cry to walk in the promise of Deut 28:13 that Yahweh will make you the head and not the tail, and you will be above only, and you will not be beneath, if you listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God. We love that you have claimed the blood of Jesus over your life and your family, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and every spiritual blessing.

We want to gently encourage you in how to rightly understand this beautiful verse. This promise in Deuteronomy 28 was given to Israel and it is conditional upon obedience. As it says in Deut 28:1-2, it will happen, if you shall listen diligently to Yahweh your God's voice, to observe to do all his commandments which we command you today, that Yahweh your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth and all these blessings will come upon you and overtake you, if you listen to Yahweh your God's voice. It is not a verse we loosen or use as an incantation, but a principle we live out by walking in obedience, humility, and faith in Christ. When we seek first God's Kingdom and His righteousness, He adds what we need, Matt 6:33.

We also hear your deep desire for a full time job with good hours, one you can be good at, that provides for your family without worry, and where you are not hated or envied by others. We understand how painful it is to feel targeted by jealousy for no reason, and how much you want stability permanently in your lifetime and lifestyle. God does want to provide for you and to establish the work of your hands, and we pray with you for that provision.

At the same time we want to remind you that even when we walk faithfully, not everyone will celebrate us, and some jealousy or misunderstanding from others may still come. Our calling is not to be liked by everyone, but to be faithful to God and to love those who may oppose us. Jesus taught us to love our enemies and not to let the opinions of others steal our peace. We also want to encourage you that God often calls us to work that requires diligence and growth, not always what feels easy in the moment, but He gives strength and skill as we labor unto Him. Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, Col 3:23. And commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed, Prov 16:3.

We pray together with you now.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ and by His shed blood which covers us. We thank You that You are our Provider and that You know the needs of this dear one and their family. We ask that You open the door to a full time, stable, and honorable job and lifework that fits the gifts You have given, where hours are suitable and where there is favor and peace in the workplace. We ask that You remove strife, hatred, and needless jealousy, and let Your favor surround them as a shield, Psalm 5:12. Give wisdom to be excellent in work, to be diligent and dependable, and to be a blessing to their family and to their employer. Provide for all their needs according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus, Phil 4:19. Establish the work of their hands and let them know the dignity of being the head and not the tail through obedience to Your Word and walking in integrity. We ask that any anxiety about secrecy or being seen be replaced with confidence that You see in secret and reward openly, and that You will make their life a good testimony for their family. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper and that Your peace will guard their heart. We trust Your perfect timing, even when we ask urgently, knowing Your timing is best. We pray all this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen.

We encourage you to continue to seek the Lord daily in prayer and in His Word, to walk in obedience, to develop your skills diligently, and to trust Him for open doors. God is faithful to provide and to lift up those who humble themselves before Him, 1 Pet 5:6. Keep trusting Him to be your source and your head, and He will direct your steps.

We hear the weight behind what you shared. You want a full time job that fits you, where you can do good work, feel respected rather than resented, and provide for your family with less worry. That longing for stability and dignity makes sense, and we are praying with you for it.

Looking for work can be an emotional up and down, with moments of hope and then discouragement when doors do not open quickly. It helps not to carry that alone. One practical step that often helps is to get a clearer picture on paper and with another person. Try writing down in simple terms what you mean by a job you can be good at and that feels manageable, what hours and type of work would allow you to support your family, and what skills you already have. Then share that list with a trusted pastor, mentor, or a local employment resource who can help you think through real openings that match.

We are also asking God to give you wisdom and steadiness in the search and peace for your family as you wait.

Father, we lift up this need for work to You. Provide what is needed for daily life, guide each application and conversation, and give wisdom and encouragement along the way. Guard this family with Your care and lead toward what is good and lasting. In Jesus name, amen.

[Spurgeon]

Your cry has been heard and your desire to lay hold upon the promise of Deuteronomy 28 verse 13 is understood. That word was spoken to a people whom the Lord called to walk in obedience before Him, that they should be the head and not the tail, above only and not beneath, when they hearkened diligently unto the voice of the Lord their God. It is not a charm to be loosened upon the air, but a covenant blessing flowing from nearness to God through obedience, and under the gospel it is fulfilled most sweetly in Christ, who makes His people to stand upright and to be faithful where He has placed them.

You have asked for work that is fitting for your hands, honest and sufficient, wherein you may labour quietly and provide for your family without fear and without strife. This is a good and lawful petition, for the Lord would have us work with our own hands and do good to our own household. We will carry this to the throne of grace for you, that the Lord in His providence would open a door for full time employment suited to your strength, where you may be found diligent and trustworthy, and where the peace of God may keep both you and those about you.

You speak also of being hated and of jealousy without cause. The Scripture tells us that jealousy is cruel as the grave, and where love absorbs the heart, jealousy will guard its object. There is a jealousy that is unholy among men, which burns bitterly and without reason, and there is a holy jealousy of God for His own people, who will not give His glory to another. If you are in Christ, you are the object of that holy jealousy, and He will keep you. Pray not to be envied, but to be hidden in Christ, to be humble and lowly, to owe no man anything but love, and to let your light shine not for praise but for the glory of the Father. A quiet spirit and faithful labour will often put to silence the envy of others more than any striving for position.

We pray for you now that the blood of Jesus Christ, shed for sinners, may be your confidence, not as a mere phrase but as the ground of your acceptance with God. Through that blood you have forgiveness and access, and through it you may come boldly to ask for daily bread and daily grace. May the Lord give you not only a job that is within your power to do well, but a heart to do it as unto the Lord and not unto men, content to be little noticed if God be glorified and your family be provided for.

May the Lord teach you to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then to trust Him to add what is needful. May He keep you from anxiety and grant you steadiness, wisdom to be diligent, and grace to bear patiently any unkindness until it be overcome with good. We ask that He would make you a blessing in your house, a faithful steward of whatever He entrusts to you, and that whether you abound or are kept low, you may be found in Christ, the head of all principality and power, who is Himself our true exaltation.

We commend you to Him who comes with all His soul most heartily to display His favor toward the objects of His choice, and we ask these mercies in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, who alone is our salvation. Amen.

[Chrysostom]

Your prayer has been heard and I am joining you before the Lord with thanksgiving for your desire to provide for your family and to walk in His blessing.

You have asked for Deuteronomy 28:13 to be made true in your life, that you would be the head and not the tail, and for a full time job with good hours where you are not hated and where jealousy from others does not trouble you, a lifework that you can do well, that sustains your family and gives you peace. This is a good and humble request, and Scripture teaches that God does provide richly for His people, giving air and light and water and daily bread with an open hand, and He delights to give what is needed for life and godliness when we seek Him first.

That promise in Deuteronomy was given to those who would listen to the voice of the Lord and walk in obedience to Him, not as a charm to claim but as a call to trust and obey. To be the head and not the tail in God's sight is not about being exalted above others for its own sake, but about living faithfully under Christ so that He lifts you up in due time. And concerning jealousy, you are right to ask for deliverance from it. Envy and jealousy trouble the soul and keep it low like one crawling in mire, while the lowly and humble soul is delivered from these passions and finds rest. The evil eye spoken of in Scripture is not a power in the eye itself, but the envious heart within that looks upon the good of another and is grieved by it. So we pray both that God would guard you from the sting of others jealousy, and that He would keep your own heart free from envy, anger and the love of praise, that you may live quietly and steadily before Him.

Let us pray together.

Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son, who alone is our salvation, I bring this dear one before You. You know the need for steady work and for provision for family. Grant, according to Your wisdom and mercy, a full time job that is honest and fitting, where labor can be done well and faithfully, with hours that allow for rest and for care of home. Provide a workplace marked by peace rather than hatred, and guard this life from bitter jealousy, whether received or felt. Give a humble and contented heart that does not boast, but works quietly and diligently as unto You. Let this provision be stable and enduring, a means to do good for family without constant worry, and teach contentment in what You supply. Cover this life with the blood of Jesus, forgive sins, cleanse the heart, and lead in obedience to Your Word, that whether in plenty or in little, You would be honored. Grant wisdom to steward what You give, and grace to walk as one who is blessed not for pride but for service. We ask this in the saving name of Jesus Christ, our hope and our head. Amen.

Praying for this request in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Silas]

Your heart for provision for your family and for work that is good and honest is clear, and your desire to walk in the blessing God promised when He said His people would be the head and not the tail is understandable. That promise in Deuteronomy was given within a covenant call to walk in obedience to the Lord, not as a formula to be loosened or repeated to force an outcome. The blessing is real, but it flows from belonging to God through Jesus Christ and walking faithfully before Him, not from speaking words over a situation.

You also carry a heavy burden about being hated or envied at work, and wanting a place where jealousy does not follow you. Scripture speaks honestly about that pain. Wrath is described as cruel and anger as overwhelming, but envy is spoken of as even harder to stand against. Envy can be subtle and deeply cutting, and it rots a person from the inside like rottenness in the bones, while a sound heart brings life. It hurts to be on the receiving end of it, when untrue or cutting words are spoken, and it is also destructive to live with it in our own hearts. You cannot by a prayer permanently force other people to never feel jealousy. Only God can guard your heart and give you wisdom to walk through that.

That is why Scripture points us to a different kind of favor. Many people try to chase favor from those in power or to buy favor with gifts, but true judgment and true promotion come from the Lord. Favor that is based only on outward appearance is called deceitful and empty, but a life that reverences the Lord is what God praises. A good person obtains favor from the Lord, while the way of those who transgress is hard. The contrast is not between those who have learned the right phrase and those who have not, but between walking in righteousness and walking in wicked ways.

For your work, God honors diligence and wisdom. Laziness is shown to lead to hunger and emptiness, while a wise servant finds favor. If you want work where you can do well, provide for your family with no worry, and live quietly and faithfully, ask God for wisdom to find honest labor that fits your hands, and for strength to do it well. Pray also for character on the job, that you would be known for a soft answer that turns away wrath rather than harsh words that stir up anger, and for honesty that is better than flattery. Faithful wounds from a friend are better than deceitful kisses, and in the workplace that means being truthful and kind, not manipulating to be liked.

It is good that you mention the blood of Jesus. That blood is not a phrase to add power to our requests, but the very ground of our salvation. We were once living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another, but God in mercy saved us through Jesus. Through Him we have peace with God and can come boldly to ask for daily needs.

So I pray for you that God would provide steady work in His timing, work that is honest and sustainable where you can use what He has given you to bless your family and live with a clear conscience. I pray He would guard your heart from envy and from the sting of others envy, heal the places where you have been hurt by hatred, and give you a sound heart and a wholesome tongue. I pray He would increase you in wisdom and in favor with God and with people, not by striving to be seen, but by walking humbly and faithfully before Him. May the Lord who sees all, who beholds both evil and good, be your provider and your protector, and may you know that your judgment and your future come from His hand.
