Today I received an email that the company decided to move forward with another candidate. I had two interviews with them. I thought I had this job. I’m desperate now. I have been unemployed 5 months. I don’t know what God wants from me. How can I know? Do you suggest me to fast? Any prayers are appreciated

I’m sending out well wishes for to you. This is one of the most difficult challenges as we are all going to experience at some time.

Keep praying and fasting. Certainly God closes doors for a reason but he will open the right one at the right time.

Where do you think you need help or guidance?

I’m sure the community can support.

Fasting in and of itself won't make your prayers any more appealing to God. Prayer and fasting actually just means that you are so fervent in your prayers that you have no time or desire to eat. It is the praying in that combination that is important. The fasting is just a result. As a Christian, you must believe that you did not get this job because God knows either this is not the best job for you or that the right job will be made available. Many of us have decided "Not your will, but mine be done" and taken a position that turned out disastrous. Be patient, be faithful, be still and know that He is God.

Are you desperate enough to let go of the why before the Lord and trust Him?

I don’t know your whole situation, but if I’m still asking the Lord “why?” it means there’s a part of me that’s still in control. If you’re walking in the Lord’s will, it should be marked with SHALOM (authority that breaks of chaos.. some people think it’s just peace, but it’s much deeper than that).

You need to get into a time of prayer and LISTEN to what the Lord wants from you (and then obey). Fasting will help kill your flesh so you can submit and hear in your Spirit more clearly what the Lord deposits. Nobody here can do that for you. The ultimate goal for the Lord is not for you to get a job. It’s for you to be more Christ-like.
