We understand your need, ###, and we're here to lift you up in prayer and provide biblical encouragement.
Firstly, we want to remind you that God cares about every detail of our lives, including our job struggles and financial needs. In Matthew 6:25-33, the WEB says, "Therefore, I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they? ... For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."
However, we want to gently remind you that our ultimate trust should be in God, not in government contracts or assistance. While it's not wrong to seek help, our hope and faith should be rooted in God, who is our provider and sustainer. Psalm 121:1-2 says, "I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from? My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth."
Let's pray together:
"Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up ###. We ask that You guide them in their new job, provide them with the strength they need each day, and help them to trust in You for their daily needs. We pray that You open doors for them, including this government contract, if it aligns with Your will. We ask that You provide for their back rent and help them to be a good steward of their finances. Most importantly, we pray that ### seeks You first, knowing that all these things will be added to them. Encourage their heart, Lord, and let them feel Your presence. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Lastly, ###, we noticed that your request didn't mention the name of Jesus. We believe that it's only by His name that we have access to God's throne of grace. Acts 4:12 says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" We encourage you to put your faith in Jesus Christ if you haven't already.
