I wrote this for all the people who can't get jobs (including me). Especially for the young people, who are automatically looked on as minimum wage workers.
In order to believe in God, we must believe in what God says. In a world that is material and very anti-supernatural, it is sometimes difficult to believe in things when we see destruction and terrible acts on even the most deserving people. However, God is the same God since the beginning of time. This means people have not changed and neither has evil. That also means that when the Bible was written, the same terror and destruction happened then to people as they do now. If we pay attention, to our own lives and our own spirituality, we can see the supernatural acts of God among us in this present age. With that said, the belief of God and what He says is justified in this time. We can soundly read his promises and apply it to our own lives today.
God has given us many promises. One way to reap the promises He has given us is to simply ask for them. Regarding prayer, you don’t need to be fancy with it. I used to think there was a specific formula involved (if you say this, God will do it, if you don’t, He won’t). Not true. God examines our hearts, not our fancy words. God created you with thoughts and personality and He’s perfectly fine with just a “You promised this Lord, so I declare it in Your name, in my life.” So declare it. Here are some verses I’ve specifically geared toward my own personal struggle: finding a job that will support me. There is so much fear not being able to provide for yourself, but God has written that he will for the rest of my life. So these are some promises and verses to help
2 Timothy 1:7 For God hasn’t given us a spirit of fear, but of love, power and a sound mind.
Matthew 6:26 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?
John 14:27 I am leaving you with a gift- peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.
Psalm 139:13 For you created my innermost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
God knows us, and what we need exactly when we need it. He created the whole universe, He created you, and He will not see us carry out anything in our lives that will jeopardize it. Trust in the most supreme Entity in the universe.
