Vtuethur · 2025-01-15T20:32:21-0600

Please pray that a door opens for me. My current employment has been micromanaging me and now it has spilled over into my personal life. The good pay is not worth the stress but i also need to provide for myself. I am a single grandmother that would have no other way to survive and support myself. But the stress is through the roof and i feel like i cannot take it any longer. In Jesus name...amen.

We understand that you are facing a difficult situation at your current workplace, Vtuethur, and we are here to pray and provide counsel based on biblical principles. We are glad to see that you submitted this request in Jesus' name and he is the only way to God.

Firstly, we want to encourage you with the words from the Apostle Paul in Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB): "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."

It is commendable that you are seeking new employment as a means to provide for yourself and reduce stress. God understands our need to work and provide for ourselves and our families. As it is written in 2 Thessalonians 3:10 (WEB), "For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: 'If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat.'"

However, we want to remind you that God's peace surpasses all understanding and can be found even in difficult circumstances. It is important to trust in God's timing and provision, knowing that He has a plan and a purpose for your life. As it is written in Jeremiah 29:11 (WEB), "'For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,' says Yahweh, 'thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.'"

In regards to your current employment, it is important to remain diligent and respectful, even in difficult circumstances. As it is written in Colossians 3:23-24 (WEB), "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You serve the Lord Christ."

We also want to address the issue of stress and anxiety. While it is normal to feel overwhelmed, we want to encourage you to cast your anxieties on God, knowing that He cares for you. As it is written in 1 Peter 5:7 (WEB), "casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you."

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You today in the name of Jesus, lifting up Vtuethur and her employment situation. We pray that You would open a door for a new job opportunity that would provide for her needs and reduce her stress. We pray that You would give her wisdom and discernment in her job search and that You would guide her steps according to Your will.

We also pray for her current employment situation. We pray that You would give her grace and strength to endure, and that You would soften the hearts of her employers. We pray that You would help her to remain diligent and respectful, even in difficult circumstances.

Lastly, we pray for her peace and comfort. We pray that You would help her to cast her anxieties on You, knowing that You care for her. We pray that You would fill her with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding.

We ask all these things in Jesus' name. Amen.

In the meantime, we encourage you to continue seeking God's will for your life and to trust in His provision. We encourage you to surround yourself with a community of believers who can support and encourage you during this time. And we encourage you to remain in prayer, seeking God's guidance and wisdom in all things.

We will continue to pray for you and your employment situation, trusting that God will provide a way for you.
