Have Faith in God & His Word
August 3rd, 2008
Okay, this is just too much for my little human mind to fathom. So, Im going with my spiritual mind frame instead.
Okay now as some of you may or may not know I’v been unemployed since June 10, 2008. And that’s unusual for me because I love to work and it’s the way I like to spend my time. Job offers have been few and inbetween since then but I been praying,and praying, and praying and praying AND PRAYING.Fasting and everything. So, finally I wake up this morning I decide I’m not praying no more. I’m a fuss with God instead. I was just like Jesus I know you love me and everything but I wouldn’t even want to spend this much time with me. So why you want to spend this much time with me? I’m not employed. My cell phone is off. I have no money. My bills steady stacking. So, Im saying lord did I pray wrong? Not enough faith? Did I do something wrong ? I mean lord let me know something because my patience is thin. So, I’ve just have reached my breaking point so I thought. Not even five minutes later I checked my email. In one email this fellow Christian woman said someone sent her my resume. Which I didn’t know who. And she had over 13 job offers and interviews ready for me in person or over the phone. Each of them I would be making a minimum of $22 an hour or $55,000 or more in salary. Could you just see me sitting there with my foot in my mouth. Ohh, I got some apologizing to do to the lord.Sitting there like Brown from Meet The Browns “I’m sorry” lol.It is true what they say when you really going through it. Proclaim your blessings and give God the glory because you’re breakthrough is about to come through. I repented and blessed his name. But it should’nt took that I
should’ve had faith and taken God on his word and his promise any way. God’s word can not return unto him void. “Ask and it will be given to you” Matthew 7:7. He didn’t say some things. Or whatever you think I’m capable of but ASK and it WILL be given unto YOU.Also in in Mark 11:24 “Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe you have received it and it will be yours”. Not some things or a few you but WHATEVER. And it goes on “And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him/her, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you for your sins”. Not easy but self explanatory. I would’nt let no one stop my blessings from God. With a silly grudge not easy but think about your forgiveness from God and what your holding your self back from. I betcha it’ll get a whole lot easier.But this my testimony to others. God is good all the time. Just trust in him if nothing else. When everything else fails you he won’t. I’m so thankful. You know I really been going through it,if I was ready and willing to share some of that embarrassment with the world. But I don’t care what no one thinks of me. This is about God’s glory and grace. And his unfailing mercy and unconditional love. Now somebody oaught to praise. Thank you, Jesus. Glory be to God. Jesus Christ is lord! Halleujah!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. Don’t forget I’m only 19 years old! No college degree, yet! Okay, so if it ain’t God you tell me what it is?

I agree with you on waiting for the Lord. I also testify on getting blessings right at the brink of despair. I also trust in the Lord at all costs because He is the only who has not let me down throughout my life.

George says,
God is an awesome God. If you accept Jesus as your personal Lord and savior, you will become a new creation and old is gone. Your prayers will be honoured. He says You may ask me for anything in my name,and i will do it.(John 14,14)In my life i have experienced his loving kindness and blessings.My Lord is an awesome God he has not let me down through out my life.Praise the Lord, Hallelujah.

Wow this testimony blessed me. I am 22 years old and I am looking for a job as we speak. I was down and I went online to look for jobs and I stumbled upon this site. First off bless God for your job. I know how to rejoice when others rejoice and it’s been a month since your post so I am sure you are enjoying your job. Second thank you for making me laugh with the Brown reference, I needed that. “THANK YOU” (like Brown lol) I thank God that he is able to perform that which he promises and I am believing and standing on his word for my job. It’s already done I am ready to walk into it. Be blessed.

I know this was written last year. But it really spoke to me today. I’m in that place of doubt right now. I’ve been out of work for two months and I don’t have the money to pay the rent next week. I’ve been job searching and haven’t been selected. I’m waiting right now to hear about a well paying job but I’ve gotten my hopes up so many times over the last 2 months, that my patience is running thin. Thank you for this testimony. I pray that I can have one of my own soon. And I pray that you are still working and praising God every day for your job!

Dear Everyone
Thank you for all your postings. I have been out of work for nearly two months now and everyday I have tried to smile, having hope that our beautiful God will come throught for me, has never let me down in the past.
I was let go from my last job unfairly and was making good money for them at the time, they did’nt want to pay my commissions anymore. With my faith in God, I do not want to hold anything against anyone.
My mother and father are both very sick in a starving country in Africa. I have been supporting them and at the sametime had to be strong for the rest of my family.
I just feel that I have run out of everything that I have, I am so, so tired. I have been really strong for the past 6 years.
I really thought I had a great chance at this job, but got an e-mail a couple of hours ago saying that they had given it to someone else.
I have no one here in the USA and have never felt as alone as I do now. God, I know that you are never late and always on time. Please help.

Dear Everyone,
I recently retired. I’ve been truly blessed!! I had hard times and I’ve struggled. I have a son who has been out of work since December 2008 and it’s now June 2009, but I have encouraged him to hold on to God’s unchanging hand and to not release his faith. It’s hard for him because he just as many of you, he didn’t mind working. My mother, sister and I flew in to spend time with him and to pray with him (this pass week). While we were there with him, he received a call regarding a job that he applied for in April. He had two telephone interviews and will be flying to Virginia on Tuesday for a final interview.I realize how looking with no visible results can be, but we’re trusting God for each of you as well as for him!
God Bless,
Cooper

I’m so very blessed and joyful to see everybody is inspired and modivated by my testimony even though it’s almost a year old. I’m praying for all of ya’ll to continue to trust the Lord on his word, be blessed.
P.S. I have switched jobs since I originally posted this testimony. I was in a similar position where the employer didn’t want to pay me my comission. I was out of work for 6 months. Another test of faith. But now I’m working for another fortune 500 company.And I didn’t think I would get the job because I didn’t have any experience in this paricular field and I didn’t have a high test score for the medical billing and coding. Not only did I get the interview, I got the job!!!! I didn’t do anything besides trust God on his word. I didn’t even deserve it. I’m just blessed to have his unfailing unconditional love, mercy, and grace. Be blessed.
