Desperate Job Situation

I'll try to make this short....

Was laid off in November from a great job, I actually mourned losing it, it was my dream job.

I found another one in March, but they wanted me to be a part of some very shady and unethical billing practices, and when I said I couldn't in good conscience, I was fired.

I could have normally been financially okay, as my Evangelistic ministry and Church Consulting Ministry would have supplemented my income, however, I took the right step and moved from the Church of God to the United Pentecostal Church to be true to my beliefs of what I knew was Truth. Of course all my old pastors won't use me now.

I'm continually posting for jobs, have sent out over 175 resumes...applying not only for jobs in my field of expertise, Healthcare IT, but even at grocery stores and Walmart, and I'm getting nothing. I need a miracle. My unemployment runs out next week.

I have one good lead. LifeWay Christian Bookstores Corporate offices are located here in Nashville. I have had two interviews with them, and they have been checking references. This would be an amazing job, so please help me pray for God's perfect will.

I only want what He wants for me....thanks.

Re: Desperate Job Situation

Thank you so much for being so kind to pray for a perfect stranger.... I'm just waiting on the Lord, and what He has for me. I learned a long time ago, God doesn't deal in terms of Time, but of Timing.... so I'm trusting.

Re: Desperate Job Situation

Great Lord God,

You see this brother's need and promotion comes neither from the north or south,
but it comes from You. If You would see fit, Lord, open up a job that this brother
can take care of himself and his family, in Jesus Name! Thank You, LORD!

You couldn't be true to your beliefs in the COG, perhaps you were needed there to bring them light?

As to the job situtation, have you considered moving to where there is work?
