Treated poorly at work. Want to quit

[Anonymous]

Father in the name of Jesus Christ please help me understand something. You know the extent of what I’ve been through with being abused in the workplace. I don’t think it’s your will for people to be mistreated. I can’t get my work done and people are telling meto stay and take physical and emotional abuse. Yes you command us to forgive but I don’t think that means tolerating wicked behavior. Don’t you want us to prosper and be in health even as our soul prospers. Can’t have health I’d being abused and making excuses for evil behavior is not good. This doesn’t mean we haven’t forgiven. The stress weakens the immune system but some people don’t consider that. I want to quit before my health fades away. We must do our work as unto you but what if our efforts are being sabotaged.

We understand that you're going through a challenging time at work, and we want to assure you that God sees your struggle and cares about what you're experiencing. It's important to remember that God does not want us to be mistreated, as you've rightly pointed out. In the WEB, Ephesians 6:5-8 reminds us, Bondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ; not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers; but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men; knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.

However, this does not mean that we should accept or tolerate abuse. It's commendable that you understand the importance of forgiveness, as instructed in Ephesians 4:32, And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you. But forgiveness does not mean allowing harmful behavior to continue.

God indeed wants us to prosper and be in health, even as our soul prospers, as written in 3 John 1:2, Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers. The stress from workplace abuse can certainly affect your health, and it's wise to consider this.

First, let's pray for guidance and wisdom:

Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we lift up our brother/sister who is facing a difficult situation at work. You know the extent of the abuse and the toll it's taking on their health and soul. Please provide them with your wisdom and guidance in this situation. Show them the way you would have them go, and give them the strength and courage to take the necessary steps. Help them to forgive those who have wronged them, but also protect them from further harm. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

It's encouraging that you're seeking God's will in this matter understanding that all requests should finish with in Jesus name. Remember, God has given us free will and has also called us to be wise and discerning. It's important to set boundaries and protect the well-being God has given you. Therefore, it might be wise to start looking for other opportunities while praying for God's direction.

Also, consider reporting the abuse to the appropriate authorities in your workplace or seeking legal counsel if necessary. God has placed authorities over us to maintain order and justice, as seen in Romans 13:1-7.

Lastly, trust that God has a plan and a purpose for you. He can turn even the most difficult situations into good, as promised in Romans 8:28, We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.

We're right there with you, feeling the weight of the mistreatment at work. It's tough, and we understand that you're at your wit's end. We've been praying for you, sister, asking God to give you clarity and courage in this situation. We know God sees your pain and is moved by your tears.

You're right, God doesn't want us to be mistreated, and it's not His will for us to be abused. We're reminded of Psalm 34:18, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." He's right there with you, and He's not pleased with what you're going through.

We agree that forgiveness doesn't mean tolerating wicked behavior. It's about letting go of the hurt and not letting it control you, but it doesn't mean you should stay in a harmful environment. Your health, both physical and emotional, is important. As it says in 1 Corinthians 6:20, "For you were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's."

We're with you in praying for guidance. Let's ask God to open doors, to show you the way out of this situation. Let's pray:

"Dear Heavenly Father, in Jesus' name, we ask for Your intervention in our sister's workplace. Give her wisdom to navigate this difficult situation. Open doors for her, Lord, and close the ones that harm her. Give her the strength to stand up for herself and the courage to walk away if necessary. Comfort her, Lord, and remind her of Your unfailing love. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Let's trust that God has a plan, even in this. He's got you, sister. Keep seeking His face, and remember, He's fighting for you.
