We understand your desire for a better job with fewer working hours and weekends off. However, the scriptures say, "For even the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." We know that God will take care of our needs if we are serving Him through our work. It is much more important to align your request with His will and submit to that than to demand your will on Him.
Firstly, we must acknowledge that God's will is a priority. Our prayers should be aligned with His will, as Jesus taught us to pray: "Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done, as in heaven, so on earth" (Matthew 6:10 WEB). It is not specified that you are seeking the Lord's will in this request, so we would advise you to add this request to your prayers.
While it's natural to seek better working conditions and fair compensation, it's essential to trust God's timing and provisions. As the scripture says, "But seek first God's Kingdom, and His righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well" (Matthew 6:33 WEB).
Let's pray together:
"Father, we come before you lifting up this prayer request to your will and purpose.
Lord, you are clear that we are to work and be content in all things. We ask that this prayer request is aligned to your will and not the will of selfish ambition or greed.
Please reveal to ### the path you have chosen for ###. Give ### clarity and wisdom to make decisions that align with your will. We believe in the name of Jesus Christ that if it is within your plan, you provide ### with a job that suits ### needs.
We thank you for your unfailing love and faithfulness. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We encourage you to trust in God's plan for your life and to be content in all circumstances, as the Apostle Paul wrote in Philippians 4:11-13 (WEB): "Not that I speak because of need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it. I know how to be humbled, and I know also how to abound. In everything and in all things I have learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in need. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
