Ask God for a job in the same manner that you would ask your earthly father for things you want or need.
Back in December 2001, I temporally lost my driving privileges (due to sinful behavior). I had been a delivery driver until then.
I had failed to pay my automobile insurance on time. a policeman ran my license plate number and arrested me for driving without car insurance. It took about two months until I could legally drive.
During that time,I searched for non-driving work without sucess.
I had confessed my sins to God in the Name of Jesus; but, no one would give me a job. I was getting behind in my rent and I worried how I might end up because of it.
I was watching a certain TV preacher discussing a situation similar to my own. He said ... "Ask God for a job in the same manner that you would ask your earthly father for things you want or need."
And I did as he said...
I had not been in church in over a couple of months. I knew that I had to go to the next Sunday service and bring my need before the congregation asking if any one could help me find a job.
It turned out that the one of the elders of the Church worked in Baggage Claim for one of the airlines in our city. He gave the name and phone number of one of the brokers which deliver "LOST LUGGAGE" to the homes, hotels or other places of the airline customers.
I called the broker and explained my situation to him. I told I would like to work for his company; but, I had to wait two more weeks before I could drivers licence back. He said I could start work as soon as i could. That job turned out to be my favorite and best paying job than any I had before that time in my working life.
That job lasted until August 2008 when God had other plans for me..................................................................
(Philippians 4:1-7) "Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved. {2} I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord. {3} And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life. {4} Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. {5} Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. {6} Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. {7} And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
