Blessed With New Job After Being Laid Off

On 4 November 2011, my husband was laid off from work. It was very much a surprise and we were not in a position to go without income. My husband is the only wage earner in the family.

The day after he learned about his layoff, we took the Holy Communion over the situation and prayed together as a family. We also contacted Joseph Prince Ministries to ask that they be in agreement with us for a new position of influence for my husband. We knew that our Daddy God had everything under control and would take care of us even though in the natural, everything looked like it would fall apart and we would lose everything.

The following Monday (7 November 2011), my husband felt led to send a résumé to two competitors of his previous company. Unknown to us, one of the owners of the company he sent a résumé to, was in a meeting with a client that he had done work with. The owner of the company asked this client about my husband and the client couldn't say enough wonderful things about my husband and the quality of his work.

Once the client found out that my husband was no longer working for his previous company, he also contacted the other competitor to let them know that they would benefit greatly by having my husband on their team. He then called my husband to give him a contact name with that company. The favor of God always works.

My husband was asked to go for an interview with the first company the very next day and the next week with the second company. Both interviews went very well and my husband had great favor with both of them. Neither company had an actual position to be filled at that time. By 18 November 2011, which was exactly two weeks after my husband was laid off, he still had not heard anything from the two companies.

We refused to worry. We knew that the finished work of Jesus was enough. Still, it was the desire of my heart for my husband to have a position by Thanksgiving because I wanted our family to have something to be really thankful for on that day.

On 22 November 2011, two days before Thanksgiving and exactly two weeks and two days after the layoff, the first company called and asked him to come in to talk about a position that had just opened up. My husband agreed, but he really wanted to work for the other company and knew that he was supposed to be there.

So he contacted the second company to let them know that he had received a job offer from the first company. He told them that he would prefer working for them, but that he would need to accept the offer from the first company, as he needed to have a position as soon as possible. The second company told him that they appreciated my husband for letting them know and asked if they could call him back shortly.

They called back half and hour later and offered him a position, and he gets to decide when to start work. At this time, the new position has the same salary he had with his previous employer. However, there is much potential with the new position and the company has a lot of business and growth scheduled for this year.

My husband has also been told that as this growth takes place, he can most likely receive an increase in salary and a company vehicle. The latter will be a real blessing as we were concerned about him driving so far to his new job in his older vehicle.

Especially in this economy and in our particular area, two weeks and two days for the Lord blessing my husband with a job is a miracle. We have family members that have been looking for work for more than three months. And there are others in our area that have been looking for a job for more than a year.

Thank you so much for praying for us and agreeing with us. Our Daddy God truly works behind the scenes and He will never let us down!
