Prayer Topic: Job Difficulties

With the average tenure in a job being less than 5 years, so many factors play into why that change occurs; positive and negative. Either way these factors drive people to seek wisdom and help to transition to a new path.  When praying for them, broaden their vision to see that God’s plan for the faithful brings greater things to them than they may have the ability to see during these confusing times. Also emphasize the importance of surrounding themselves with others in faith and not stay alone.

 

Possible Things to Pray for: 

  • Strength to let go of past feelings
  • Patience to allow employers to work through decisions and for their favor
  • Willingness to see rejections as times of learning and growing
  • Energy to keep the search moving
  • For others of strength to come into their daily walk

 

Verses to Share:

Ecclesiastes 3:11 NLT - Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end. 

Isaiah 43:18-19 NLT - But forget all that— it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.

Philippians 4:6-7 NLT - Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
