Faith @ Work

DAY 20 OF 30

As you arose from your bed this morning, the eyes of the Lord were watching over you. As you go about your work today, the eyes of the Lord are watching over you.

Your Creator watches over you. He who laid out every moment of your life before you were born, has blessed you with the intelligence and abilities to navigate each experience at work. God watches over you with a heart of tender compassion filled with love for you, just as a mother watches over her children. God watches over you, longing for you to know and experience his great love today.

If your faith wavers today, remember that God is watching over you so that he can strengthen you. He knows that we live and work in a fallen world. He knows our weaknesses and where we may stumble and fall. When you are tempted at work today to rely on your own resources and abilities, remember that God is watching over you, ready to do exceedingly more than you can ask, imagine, or do in your own strength.

God knows when Satan is or will be tempting us at work. Satan has only the power that God permits. When Satan asked to tempt the disciples, Jesus prayed that their faith would not fail. In the same way, God’s eyes are upon you, not to see your faith fail, but to strengthen you so that your faith will not fail. Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.

The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil, to blot out their name from the earth. The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all; he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken. (Psalm 34:15–20 NIV)

Prayer

Almighty God, thank you for watching over me in my job. Thank you for loving me. Lord, you know my weaknesses. Strengthen me today so that I can stand firm. Lead me not into temptation. For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.
