God can open doors of employment
Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
- Matthew 6:26
The world is going through difficult times of economic crisis, financial instability, and collapsing markets. This, along with many other alarming situations we face, can lead us to become even more stressed.
We will become full of frustration if we focus on the world. But when we look to the Lord, we know that He can open doors that no one else could open. If you need a job, ask Jesus, because the Kingdom of God is never in crisis. God is good and He is always faithful!
Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.
- Jeremiah 32:17
What seems impossible for human beings is possible for God. He knows what is best for you and wants to guide you to achieve it. Spend some time with God, talking to Him about your need to find a new job. Pray that He will help you connect with the right people who can support you in this situation. Seek guidance on how to write a better résumé and stay alert to job opportunities.
But above all, do not become overwhelmed. Take steps of faith and trust that God will open doors and help you.

Day Before Yesterday's Word
What do others say?
When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,
we were like those who dreamed.
Our mouths were filled with laughter,
our tongues with songs of joy.
Then it was said among the nations,
“The Lord has done great things for them.”
- Psalm 126:1-2
In these verses, we see that God freed the people of Israel from their captivity, and the joy they felt was tangible. They laughed uncontrollably, sang praises to God, and expressed their joy in such a way that others couldn't help but acknowledge the great work God had done for them.
Have you received the Lord’s salvation? Do you feel joy when you remember all that God has done for you? Do you have specific reasons today to rejoice in the Lord? Express your joy! Let the people around you see, hear, notice, and talk about God's work in your life. May they themselves witness the great things God has done for you.
Praise the Lord, all you nations;
extol him, all you peoples.
For great is his love toward us,
and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.
Praise the Lord!
- Psalm 117
Inspire others to praise God for what He has done in your life and for what He will do, both in you and in them, if you allow Him. God is a God of love and desires to bless all people and all nations. Let your testimony draw others closer to God, let everyone see the precious work He has done in you and choose to praise Him too.
