Prayer For A New Job Opportunity

Thank You Lord for this new job and I am excited about starting it, and pray that You would give me the grace to settle in well and adapt to the different environment and the new challenges I will be facing.

I thank You so much for the wonderful way that You opened up this job opportunity and answered my prayers in such a gracious and amazing way and thank You that You will be with me, every step of the way.

Help me to be well prepared both physically and mentally and Lord I pray that You would use me to be a blessing to others but I also know that going to a new job as a professing Christian may also have some difficulties. Give me grace to face any confrontations or prejudice. Praise Your holy name and may You be exalted in my new work, in Jesus name,

Amen


Loving Lord, we are living in a time of much need and economic hardship, and there are many today who are facing the shock of having lost their job, with little hope of securing a new position.

Father, this causes such deep emotional pressure and severe financial hardship at any time, but when the economic climate is so depressed, it has such a serious knock on effect on relationship with loved ones. Look down with pity I pray, on all that are having to come to terms with joblessness. Look on these people with compassion and in Your mercy, I pray that You will provide for their needs and secure for each one a new position.

Lord, I know that this can happen to any of us and none are exempt from such a devastating loss, but You have promised to supply all the needs of Your children, and I ask that in Your mercy You will supply all that is needful.

Bring good out of evil Lord, and may the loss of a job be the thing that draws each one into the arms of their Saviour. Save and supply the needs of all who are facing a future without a job I pray,

Amen.


Thank You Father for my husband's new job and we give You all the praise and glory for answering our prayers and opening the door for this new and exciting employment.

Please bless this new work and I pray that my husband will settle in quickly and happily in his new position, and will be enabled to fulfil the many requirements he will be called upon to do and to overcome all the obstacles he may find in this new position. I pray that he would not only fit in well in this next step of his career, but be viewed with grace and favour by both the senior managers and other work-colleagues.

Give him the vision and ability to quickly recognise what needs to be tackled and the potential to act quickly and effectively. Help him to excel in all he does and grant him wisdom and ability to face any new and difficult challenges with confidence, wisdom and grace. Thank You that Your grace is sufficient and I praise and thank You for this next step on our life-journey together - in Jesus name,

Amem


Dear Lord Jesus, I come to You as I am looking for suitable employment, and pray that You will guide me as I try to look for vacant posts and apply for suitable positions.

Lord, I am Your child and my life belongs to You. I pray that You will use my life in the work that You have prepared for me to do.

Grant me wisdom as I start to write and apply for jobs, and I pray that I may find grace in the eyes of the employers.

Go before me I pray, and open wide the door through which You would have me travel, and please shut tight every door that is unsuitable in Your sight. Lead me Lord, along Your chosen path and may I be sensitive to Your voice saying, "This is the way, walk in it."

Amen.


Heavenly Father, I want to lift up the many men and women who are seeking jobs in this very difficult economic climate and especially those that I know personally, who are finding such difficulty is securing a job.

Lord You are the One Who can know every sparrow that falls to the ground and You are the One Who knows the various needs of every job seeker. .. so open the doors of opportunity to those who are in need we pray, and particularly for those who have families to support, and who may be getting discouraged and depressed.

Look down in mercy on the many job seekers and may many use this difficulty that they are facing to be the cause of looking to You in faith trusting in You in a way that they have never done before. Be gracious we pray, in Jesus name,


Dear Heavenly Father, I come to You today in real need of employment and am getting concerned as I have been out of work for some time, with few opportunities of securing any job.

You know the responsibilities I have, and I ask Lord that You would guide me to the right job. I know that there are many people who are in the same situation as I am in, and at times Lord I get quite discouraged. Please help me Lord not to be anxious, but to know that You are working all things according to Your good plan. Lord, at times I feel I am not part of Your plan, and yet I know what the Word tells us, that You will work all things together for good to those that love You, even my jobless position.

Help me to trust You in all things and not to fret or become too discouraged. I know we are to live by faith and not by sight. Help me Lord to trust in You. I ask this in Jesus' name,

Amen.


Heavenly father, I ask that you provide a job suited for my needs this day. Lead me to a job that will accommodate me without hesitation. You are the rock on which I stand. I ask that You provide me with a job that is both stable and without shaky grounds.


I ask that my talents, skills, abilities and education will be put into practical use. That way, I can have sufficient to pay my bills, and place bread on my table for myself and my family. May I also be able to give back what is due to You, Father.


Lord, You command blessings upon me in my barns and in all that I put my hands to do, and You will bless me in the land which You give me.

Right now, I proclaim that I will receive many job opportunities that will allow me to perform at my best, remembering You in all that I do.


I speak that doors will be opened to me in every direction I turn, because Your light shines upon me.

I decree and declare that unemployment is of the past and will be no more. In Jesus's name I pray, Amen!


Dear God,
You know my needs. You know my desire for a job, for work I enjoy doing, for the next step in my career to present itself. I pray that you would guide me as I continue on this job hunting journey. May I focus first on your will for my life, putting your desires and your plan above my own wishes and wants. Open doors to new opportunities that you desire for me, and equip me with the skills, knowledge, and wisdom I need to take steps forward in this process. As I craft my resume, write cover letters, submit my applications, connect with new companies and potential employers, and go on interviews, give me the words to speak and the courage to share who I am and what I can do. Give me confidence that can only come from you, and give me humility too. I trust you, Lord-- my life is in your hands. Your will be done. Thank you for being near to me every step of the way and thank you for always providing for my every need. May this all be for your glory.

In your name,
Amen.
