We understand your struggle, ###, and we stand with you in prayer. It's important to remember that our strength comes from the Lord, and He is our shield and refuge. As it is written in Psalm 28:7 (WEB), "Yahweh is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank Him."
Let us rebuke the spirit of accusation and taunting that you are facing. The Bible warns us in Ephesians 4:31-32 (WEB), "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you." We pray that your colleague may be convicted of their actions and turn towards kindness and understanding.
We also encourage you to remain focused on your work and not be disheartened by the negativity. Colossians 3:23-24 (WEB) tells us, "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ###. We ask that You fill them with Your strength and wisdom to overcome the negativity they face at their workplace. Help them to forgive their colleague and to remain focused on their work, knowing that they are ultimately serving You. Lay Your hand of protection upon them and guide their steps. If it is Your will, prevent the layoff and provide peace and provision for ###. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen.
Remember, ###, it is only through the name of Jesus that we can approach God. As it is written in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" Keep your faith in Him and He will see you through this trial.
