Weekly Prayer #35

Recently, I’ve been chatting with several people who are looking for jobs. Today, God put an interesting thought on my heart: it might be meaningful to gather the people I know who are seeking employment and do something for God together. To practically address unemployment, we need a vision—and a way to let blessings flow creatively.

This is the 35th weekly prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this inspiration. Once again, You have taught me that to do something together, in unity, we must share the same vision. The ultimate force that unites people and moves them to strive toward the same goal is You. So I ask You to place the same vision in the hearts of those who will work with me. Please bring us peace, clarity, and curiosity to seek what You desire us to do.

Now I pray for these people: please purify their hearts so that they may share the same vision as I do, for my only desire is to glorify You. Renew their minds so that they will not be confined by the ways of this world. Lord, I want people who can turn the world upside down with me, and I do not want to compromise on that. Please increase all of our faith in You, so that even when we do not know what to do, we keep our eyes fixed on You—and that is enough.

Help us to believe that we will not struggle in our battles, because You are with us and will continue to be with us. Let the fear of You fall upon this city and even the world when they hear that You have fought against our enemies.

All glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

In Jesus’ precious and mighty name I pray and receive,

Amen.
