Dear Family,
I need your prayers desperately. I am praying, fasting, putting my total trust and faith in Christ and yet I feel discouraged. As God is healing my innerself and I am maturing in my spiritual growth, I am so unhappy with my job. I dread making the drive. Hearing my peers voices. When my cell phone rings I don't want to answer it. Don't get me wrong, I praise God for employment. There are others out there who do not have the opportunity that I have here but as for the past six years my growth within this company has been stagnated with no room to progress. My boss is getting more power hungry everyday. For years I have ministered to her and my peers, I know there is a seed that is planted there,yet jealous and competition is a dark cloud that will not remove its self from here. I have made it my mission to submit my resume to other companies across the globe, waiting for God to move. I am willing to relocate. Not running from anything, I just need Lord to move. As I read Purpose Driven Life - I can see myself everyday getting more fustrated with being here. It seems like you have two type of people here, ones that are power hungry and the others that don't mind being belittled and disrepected for a paycheck. There are so many times I have to go in the bathroom or close my door and just pray. I am believing and trusting that God has a purpose and a plan for me. Right now the enemy is coming in telling me to be angry with God. The spirit of fustration and discouragment is trying to come over me but I keep reminding myself the battle is not mine, its the Lords. It is truly my time to go. I am ready to explode any minute now. Again, I have completely overbooked myself with things outside of work to keep my mind not concentrated on what I have to deal with the next day. My body is becoming tired. I am started not to want to be around other individuals because of my weariness. I have never seen a bunch of adults act like children. I am just asking for God to bless me right out of here. Family please, pray, keep me in your prayers that God will answer my prayers. He will set me free from this job. I want to do his will yet I am hindering myself from what I know what I can do. HELP ME LORD, HELP ME. Father God, I praise you. I praise you for whom you are, I praise you for loving me, I praise you for having your son die for me. I don't want to be selfish Lord. I know there are so many people that need you more than I but I am crying out to you this day. HELP ME! I need your peace, comfortness, love, support, boldness, and a NEW JOB! Lord, rain on my finances and new employment. I ask for favour over my resume as recruiters seek out for employees. Have favour over me LORD. I NEED YOU. Please remove these spirits that are not of you: spirit of discouragement, depression, loneliness, doubt, fear, anger, jealousy and confusion. THESE things are not of you Lord. I want to be in the likeness of your son, not this person I am turning too. Lord, HELP ME. I don't want to cry anymore. I don't want to stress anymore. I know you are my rock my fortress, my sheild, my everything. I just need you to rain upon me. I want to do your will, show me, guide me, please I am begging you for your glory and mercy. Thank you for loving me. In Jesus precious glorious name, AMEN. Your sister in Christ, Nicole (NB) |

Nicole, my sister be encouraged weeping my endure for a night but joy comes in the morning. One thing I have learned is it can not rain every single day. Praise God the sun will shine. God as an assignment for you and I at this time and you and I and we must listen to his word. Sometime we ask him to deliver us from a particular situation and he is telling us baby you have not got everything I wanted you to get out of this experience nor did the person I sent you to help have what I have in store for them.
If you remember several weeks ago I talked and asked that you all pray for my coworkers and Nicole when I say God has worked it out. Praise God let me tell you. First he removed me from immediate contact with those stressing me out, without removing from my company. Then tomorrow I start my new assignment from God. He promoted me Praise God. Continue to minister/pray for those who frustrate you and let God move you in his time. Because he isn’t going to move you until your assignment is complete. That is one thing about God he is going to do what he wants to in order for us to get the lesson he has in store for us. Also, you mentioned two types of people at your job; well you forgot to mention those like yourself that LOVE the LORD praise God for you. You are the light God has sent to shine in that dark place, just as I am the light on my job. We must continue to praise God even as the enemy attacks us. That shows character and God is into the character building business. Nicole ask the Lord for WISDOM that has been my prayer. If we get wisdom we have all we need because it tells us in the bible if we have wisdom we can get understanding. Also read one book of Proverbs everyday a long with Psalms 5. I tell you reading that delivered me and promoted me spiritually. Also remember a promotion does not come from man but from God. Psalm 75:6 -7 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. 7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another. Psalm 75:6-7. This is one of my favorite bible scriptures. I will never for get when I got laid off a lady at my college gave me that scripture and I have held in my heart. My daughter, pay attention to my wisdom, listen well to my words of insight, that you may maintain discretion and your lips may preserve knowledge. Proverbs 5:1-2. Be encouraged and rejoice – just start thanking God for the changes in your coworkers. It is apparent they need prayer. Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again Rejoice! Philippians 4:4 You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence Act 2:28 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit Romans 15:13 I am standing in agreement with you my sister. Luke 2:49b Did you not know that I must be about My Father's business? |

Nicole
You have been a blessing to me and others and a help. I started saying out loud every morning or when I thought of it this, " This is the day that the Lord has made and I will rejoice and be glad in it." I also began going over the Psalms and proverbs every day a little and praying the Psalmist's prayers of thanksgiving and praise out loud to God from my heart. I was in a simular situation years ago and I just prayed that much harder for the people who were causing me the most greif and it seemed to work after a time of testing. I eventually moved on. Don't be weary in well doing because you will reap if you don't faint. May Psalm 23 be your testimony. Also consider that this may be Persecution and evil speaking against you falsely for Jesus' sake. If that's the case the Lord told us in Matthew and in other places to rejoice because you have great reward in heaven. They hated him, they will hate you because you are not of the world but are his. |
