If you are waiting on God for a job, here are scriptures for fasting for a job that you can use to fast and pray for breakthrough in that regard.
God created work before He created humanity.
He created man when He was done creating a job for him.
So, man was actually created for work.
That explains why God is against idleness and stealing. (See Ephesians 4:28, KJV)
He wants you have your own job, build a career, have a trade or run your own business.
God wants you gainfully employed and productively engage.
That’s why you should resist by all means, anything that may be standing in your way to being productively engaged, making the most of your time.
Now, if you find yourself not being able to secure employment, float a business, own your own trade, build a career… no matter how hard you try, then it’s time you press hard into God through fasting and prayer for a way out.
Now, it is important you know that fasting does not change God.
It only changes you and puts you in a position to be able to hear from God, receive instructions and directions on what to do to have your breakthrough.
It is to this end that we furnish you with bible verses, scriptures you can stand on as you wait on God in fasting for a job breakthrough.
