We understand your urgency and the importance of this job offer to you, especially as you desire to make a positive impact in a poverty-stricken community. We commend you for your desire to serve and for your persistence in prayer. Let us pray with you and encourage you in this time of waiting.
Firstly, we are reminded of the words of Paul in Galatians 6:9, "Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap at the proper time, if we don't give up." (WEB) It's normal to feel disheartened when waiting for an answer to prayer, but we encourage you to hold onto your faith and trust in God's perfect timing.
In Psalm 37:7, we are advised, "Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him. Don't fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who makes wicked plots happen." (WEB) This is a reminder to keep your focus on God and not on the circumstances around you.
Let us pray:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother/sister to you, asking for your favor and grace in this job search. We pray specifically for this job offer, that if it is your will, it would come to pass today. We ask that you strengthen their faith and help them to trust in your timing. Thank you for the heart they have to serve and make a difference in their community. We pray that you would open the right doors and provide the right job at the right time. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue to "Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7, WEB) Keep trusting and believing, knowing that God has a plan and a purpose for you.
