JOB STRESS MANAGEMENT

If you are stressed because of your job, pray every morning before you leave for your workplace and every time you face a challenge at work. Scriptures or SWORD WORDS that you can pray include:

1. Let Your work appear to Your servants, and Your glory to their children. And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon me, and establish the work of our hands for me; yes, establish the work of my hands. (ADP Psalm 90:16-17) 
2. May You grant me according to my heart's desire and fulfill all my purpose. (ADP Psalm 20:4) 
3. Lord open to me Your good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to my land in its season, and to bless all the work of my hand. (ADP Deuteronomy 28:12) 

Establish the work of my hands Lord

Position yourself in your workplace for success by heeding the Bible for it tells us to be loyal and obedient to our employers, to be pleasant and not answer back or steal from our workplace. (Titus 2:9-10)


Carry out your duties well and whatever you do, do it well as if you are doing it to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of inheritance because you serve the Lord Christ. (Colossians 3:23-24)

Promotion comes from God

Combine your efforts with meditating on these Scriptures or SWORD WORDS to fight for your job.

1. I will refrain my voice from weeping and my eyes from tears because the Lord says that my work shall be rewarded. (ADP Jeremiah 31:16) 
2. Surely my just reward is with God and my work with my God. (ADP Isaiah 49:4) 
3. Promotion comes neither from the east nor from the west nor from the south because God is the Judge who promotes. (ADP Psalm 75:6-7) 
4. The righteous person and the wise person and their works are in the hand of God. (ADP Ecclesiastes 9:1)
