We stand with you, Pempakos, in your commitment to place your career in Jesus' able hands. Thank you for acknowledging His power and presence in your life. We are reminded of Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." Trust that God has a plan for your career and life.
Your concern about those who mock your faith and prayer life is understandable. Jesus himself warned us, "Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven. For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you" (Matthew 5:11-12, WEB). Do not be discouraged, but continue to trust in God.
Instead of seeking to prove them wrong, focus on your relationship with God and His will for your life. "When they saw him, they worshiped, but some doubted. Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, 'All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.'" (Matthew 28:17-20, WEB)
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we lift Pempakos up to You, thanking You for their unwavering faith and commitment. We pray that You guide their career path, opening doors that only You can open. We ask that You silence the voices of mockers and use Pempakos' life as a testament of Your glory and goodness. Give them peace and patience in this season, knowing that Your timing is perfect. May they find a job that not only provides but also allows them to shine as a light for You. We pray this all in the powerful name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard your heart and mind in Jesus Christ (Philippians 4:7, WEB). Continue steadfast in your faith and service on the fire altar, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:58, WEB).
