Eogiva, we join you in lifting up your concerns about your work and your relationship with your employer's family to the Lord. We are grateful that you have acknowledged the power of Jesus' name in your prayer, for it is through Him that we have access to God's throne of grace.
Firstly, we are instructed in Colossians 3:23-24 (WEB), "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." This verse reminds us to perform our duties diligently, as if we are serving the Lord Himself. We pray that God will grant you the strength, wisdom, and skills needed to excel in your work as a domestic helper.
Regarding your relationship with your employer's family, we encourage you to show love, kindness, and respect, as you have mentioned. Romans 12:18 (WEB) advises, "If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men." We pray that God will touch their hearts, helping them to accept and respect you, despite cultural differences. Remember, as we learn in 1 Peter 2:11 (WEB), we are foreigners and pilgrims in this world, so it is essential to understand and adapt to the cultures around us, as long as they do not contradict God's Word.
We also pray for your health and safety, as requested. In Psalm 91:11 (WEB), God promises, "For he will command his angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways." May God's protective hand be upon you, keeping you from harm and granting you good health and energy to carry out your duties.
Lastly, we want to commend you for praying in Jesus' name. 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.'" It is only through Jesus that our prayers are heard and answered.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up Eogiva and her work in Qatar. Help her to perform her duties excellently, with kindness, love, and respect towards her employer's family. Touch their hearts, Lord, that they may accept and respect Eogiva as she is. Keep her safe and healthy, full of energy to accomplish her tasks. May her work be a testimony of Your love and grace. All these things we ask in Jesus' name. Amen.
