Thank you Desmond for reaching out and sharing your request with us. We are truly sorry to hear about your job loss, but we firmly believe that God has a plan and a purpose for everything. Let us remind you that God is always faithful, and He will never forsake you.
Firstly, it is so important to trust in God completely, as you mentioned. We are encouraged by your faith, and we want to remind you of the promise in Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB: "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."
During this time, we encourage you to continue seeking God's will and to remember that He is your provider. As it says in Matthew 6:31-33 WEB: "Therefore don't be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' 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."
We also want to remind you of the importance of praying in Jesus' name. It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name by which we can be saved. As it says 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.'"
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother Desmond. We thank You for Your unfailing love and faithfulness in his life. We pray that You will comfort him during this time of uncertainty and that You will help him to trust in You completely.
We ask that You will be merciful and provide Desmond with a new job soon, a job that aligns with Your will and purpose for his life. We pray that You will open the right doors and that You will give him favor in the eyes of potential employers.
We also pray that Desmond will continue to seek You first, and that You will use this time to draw him even closer to You. We ask that You will help him to grow in his faith and that You will give him Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
We ask all of this in Jesus' name, Amen.
Stay strong in the Lord Desmond. We will continue to pray for you.
