My friend Mike is applying for his dream job but it would not be easy for him to get in. If he by some divine intervention he manages to get that far, there are a lot of ducks that have to be in a row for it to work out so he's leaving it up to God to open or shut these doors for him and his family...

Please pray for God's divine intervention and that he opens or shuts these doors according to his will. According to the purpose and plan God has for their lives...

Thank you!

Just recently Mike got the call. He thought it had passed him by and that doorway had closed. To say he was disappointed would be an understatement however, life goes on he continued with his previous job. A few days ago, he got a call from that same company and he has a zoom meeting tomorrow with the boss. I think he has got it but please continue to pray according to the will of God. Thanks guys and blessings! pyr

may the Lord continue to draw Mike and his family into His loving embrace for them all and that He will make known His purposes for Mike and his family to maybe move with him so that Mike can take up this new vocation in another city/place and that the whole family is in agreement with their respective ministry calling from God.

Shalom

Outcome: Mike got the dream job but decided not to take it. He said that it would mean sacrifice for his family, a loss of friendships, a loss of benefits and a cut in pay compared to what he makes now. It would mean him spending more time at work and less with his family. It would mean selling his property and buying in the most expensive city in the country. I'm glad he had made the right decision with the Lord's help Glory!:pray:

Letting God do what He does best is often the best solution for all concerned.

It seems that it was good for Mike to test the waters, so as for Mike to see that God is Good and has been, and can, taking care of Him and is meeting all of his family's needs.

Shalom

It sounds like he made the right choice. Praise God that he was given discernment.

Mike got a call from his dream job employers. They said they would place him in another position which is higher than their first offer, up his wages by $10.000 than he gets on his present job. They would also help him move. Reluctantaly after speaking with his wife...he declined the offer.

They came back with $10.000 more wages plus and not needing to move but that he travels to another city and stays there in a 4 day week while working for them.

Please pray for my friend...:pray: that he does what God wants him to do....

Oh wow. Tough decision. It still sounds like it might be tough though 4 days a week and depending on how far away the city is, that may be wearisome after some time. Sounds like they really want him. Will pray for God to give him wisdom in this.
