Praying for a job

Dear All,

I was wondering if you could please remember me in your prayers.

I'm currently looking for a job after graduating from university in September. I seem to be the only one left from our class who has not yet had a job. At first I started searching confidently but then I have lost all confidence, I feel miserable and worry I might fall into a vicious cycle of depression. Please please remember me in your prayers.

I have a lot of disappointments that are hanging over me from last year and they are affecting me in my job search and confidence.

1. I was diagnosed with dyspraxia and it just affected my confidence a lot.
2. I didn't have the nicest supervisor at university and I feel I put in a lot of work for nothing.
3. I managed to get a good opportunity to do a project with an organisation but after I had nearly finished the project, the lady who was coordinating cut all contact with me and there was never closure. I don't really know what I did wrong.

Taking all those factors into account I'm wondering if there is any hope for me. I just don't know, I know all things are possible with God and I'm trying to remain strong in my faith.

There is a verse I have been trying to look for which says something like God will never set someone a challenge if He didn't think they could achieve it. Does anyone know it?

I would truly appreciate your prayers for God to lead me in the direction.
 
dear Lord
I pray for noma and ask that you open a door of opportunity for her to get a job. You see all her concerns now but I pray has your word says cast all your cares on God for He cares for you. And that our hope is in you.
I pray that you will provide. In Jesus name
Amen
 
1Co 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

The words in the original Greek for tempted and temptation basically mean tried, tested and put to proof. God allows trails and we are given a great opportunity to respond in faith.

1Pe 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:


Heavenly Father thank You that You have an answer before we even ask! Thank You that You have given our dear sister favor, that You have the right job for her and that You are the One that is ordering her footsteps as she waits- as she stands in faith trusting You.
As always, thanks for hearing and thanks for doing these things for irt is in Jesus Name, we ask amen.
 
prayer and peace

Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

Matthew 7:8 For every one that ask receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.


Noma, use this time to seek the Lord even harder in prayer. The situation may look hard but certainly God hears our cries, our groaning, and sighs of pain.

Exodus 2:23 And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.

we must continue to endure in prayer and wait upon the Lord.

one last note: Keep your mind on God for peace

Isa 26:3 You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you: because he trust in you.
 
Praying for encouragement & peace for you, Noma.
Praying God directs you to the job He has for you & blesses you in it & makes you a blessing to others in it.


Reminder: God does NOT shut a window without opening a door.
 
Hi Everyone
