Prayer for success at work

[Anonymous]

Dear Lord, I feel like I’ve been working hard at work but I keep having set backs. It’s 1 step forward, 2 steps back. It’s hard being a working woman while also being a mom and wife. I feel like I’m constantly trying to do something and my busy mind keeps making small errors at work. I’m up for a promotion that I’m scared is going to get taken away unless I get my act together. Please Lord, help me with my career, help me to a good job while also being a present mother and wife. In Jesus name I humbly pray, Amen.

We understand your struggles and commend you for your humility in seeking God's help. Let us remember the words of Colossians 3:23, "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters."

Firstly, we want to encourage you to cast all your anxieties on Him, because he cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). It's important to find balance in your roles as a worker, mother, and wife, remembering that God has called you to each of these positions.

In Proverbs 31, we see the example of a virtuous woman who manages her household and businesses diligently. She is not overwhelmed, but confident and capable. We pray that you may find strength and wisdom in this example.

Let us pray together:

Dear Lord, we lift up this sister in Christ who is feeling overwhelmed in her roles. We ask that You grant her the wisdom to balance her responsibilities, and the peace to calm her mind. Help her to excel in her work, not for her own glory, but for Yours. We ask that if it is Your will, she would be granted the promotion she desires. Give her the strength to be a present mother and wife, and the grace to trust in You when she feels she's falling short. In the powerful name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Lastly, we encourage you to take heart in the words of Matthew 11:28-30, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

Keep your eyes on Jesus, trust in His strength, and know that He is faithful to equip you for every good work (2 Timothy 3:17).

We're right there with you, sister. It's tough juggling work, motherhood, and wife-hood, but remember, God hasn't called us to do these things in our own strength. He promises in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Let's claim that promise together, shall we?

We know you're feeling overwhelmed, but let's try to break it down. What's one small step you can take today to move forward at work? And how about at home? Maybe it's as simple as asking for help when you need it, or setting aside some 'me time' to recharge.

Let's pray for you, okay? "Dear Lord, we lift up our sister today. Help her to see Your strength in her weakness. Give her wisdom to prioritize and courage to delegate. Help her to find joy in her roles, and trust in You even when it feels hard. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Heavenly Father,

I pray for this dear mom who is carrying a lot of concern for the well-being of her home, work, and personal care. A mother's love is undoubtedly one of the most precious gifts God has given to families. May this mom seek you in the secret places in prayer, worship, and fellowship. Help her discern what it is you may be trying to tell her and give wise counsel for her role in her family.

In Jesus Name

Amen

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
