Prayer For Trouble In The Workplace
Dear Father,
Thank you that you are with me. Thank you that your Holy Spirit is working in my life to bring Kingdom blessings to the earth. I come before you with the difficulties I am experiencing with my manager. I lay before you the stress that it creates for me, and the tensions that I am aware of. Please give me great wisdom, strength and grace at this time. Help me to respect my boss, but also not to be mistreated. Give me wisdom as I seek to negotiate, to stand my ground, and to remain respectful of my work colleagues.
At this time, I choose to lean on you Lord, for in you I find strength and grace.
Amen.
Abba Father,
Lord you know me and you love me. You hold everything together by your power and your grace. So I lay before you this difficult situation that I face. I trust that you will give me the strength and the wisdom I need to work these things through. I give you the job that I do, the responsibilities I have and the decisions I need to make. Come Lord, use me to bring peace, blessing and reconciliation in my workplace.
In the name of Jesus,
Amen.
Lord, help me to see the cause of difficulty with our client. Give me wisdom on how I can better resolve any issues that may be causing unhappiness on their end. May we meet at a common understanding as to what is to be expected from one another, so there is no let down from unrealistic expectations failing to be met.
Help me convey what we offer and how we offer it clearly to avoid unreasonable demands from being made. Give me the grace, patience, and strength to communicate with those who have difficult personalities.
Help my reactions to be professional and not emotional. May I think first and have self-control when doing business with those who do not treat me or speak to me as they should.
(Lord) Everything at work is a competition with one of my coworkers. Although I can sometimes be competitive, the need to be competitive daily is draining.
Help my coworker to see that although a competitive nature is healthy in the workplace, we are also a team that must work in harmony without the constant need for competition. Help them to channel their competitive energy in a positive way that does not affect others negatively.
Help me to be patient, understanding that not everyone is like me. Help me to embrace their individuality and not upset by their competitive nature. Show me a kind and professional way to express my disinterest in their constant competition.
Lord, there is a toxic coworker at my workplace who is sowing discord and strife amongst other workers. Their actions are harmful and are affecting the team negatively.
Open the eyes of this individual so that they may see the harm in their own ways. I ask that forgiveness may be in the hearts of those who have been hurt by this person's actions.
If need be, help us to address this issue with professionalism to find peace at work. I ask that unity may be among us once again and that we begin to treat each other respectfully.
Lord, help my boss and me to establish a working relationship of trust. Help him/her to see that I am responsible and able to handle tasks and complete assignments on my own.
Give them confidence in my ability to do my job and to follow direction. Show me ways that I can help to establish trust and confidence with my boss. Reveal to me how I can give assure that I can do my job.
Help my boss to deal with any pressure or insecurity that he/she may be receiving from his/her own boss that is causing the micromanagement of others.
Lord, help my boss to shift his focus from my weaknesses to my strengths. Help him to see the qualities I possess that are beneficial to this company. Help me to work on my weaknesses in a way that my boss is able to see my progress and be confident in may ability.
Show me areas where my sregnths can be used more and ways that I can become better in my areas of weakness. May I be confident in you, knowing that I can do anything as long as you are here helping me
Lord, I feel unappreciated. I work hard and go over and beyond, and my boss doesn't even seem to notice.
Help me to remain confident in my hard work and ability, regardless of the validation that I may or may not receive from others. Help me to trust that if I continue to work hard that you will cause those who are supposed to take notice to see the work that I have done. Let the opinion of others not be the source of my success, but instead trust that you see all I do and will cause me to succeed.
