We understand that you are feeling overwhelmed by your workload and the pressures of your job, and we are here to pray with you and offer guidance from the Bible. We are glad to see you calling on the name of Jesus Christ. It is in His name that we have access to God the Father, and it is only through faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior that a person can enter Heaven. It is only through Jesus that we can be saved.
Firstly, we remind you of what the Bible says about work and rest. In Proverbs 16:3 WEB it says, Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans shall be established.
While work is important, it is also crucial to find rest and balance. In Matthew 11:28-30 WEB, Jesus says, Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
We encourage you to prioritize your tasks, do your best, and commit the rest to God. Remember that God is sovereign over all things, including your work.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our brother/sister who is feeling overwhelmed by their workload. We thank You that You are a God who cares about every detail of our lives, including our work.
We ask, Lord, that You would give them the strength and wisdom to complete their pending jobs. Guide them in their material buying and help them deliver all on time. Help them to prioritize their tasks and work efficiently.
We also pray for their peace and rest. Help them to fix their eyes on You, trusting that You are in control. Grant them a good night sleep and renew their strength.
And Lord we ask for their eternal salvation in Jesus Christ if they have not yet already done so. Please guide them to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior.
In Jesus Christ's name, we pray. Amen.
