Exodus 35:31–35 – God gives wisdom, skill, and craftsmanship

  • Father God, You designed work from the beginning (Genesis 2:15) and we ask for meaningful employment and economic growth in our land. Open doors for job seekers and unemployed youth. Grant wisdom, skill, and excellence as You gave in Exodus 35:31–35. Let every person enjoy the fruit of their labour and the ability to create wealth according to Your Word (Deuteronomy. 8:18, Psalm 128:1–2) in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Ecclesiastes 9:10 “Whatever you do, do well…” (NLT)

  • Father God, we lift up small businesses, farmers, manufacturers, and innovators before You. Release wisdom, creativity, and resilience upon them, and strengthen their hands for productive work. Bless their labour with growth, integrity, and favour, and expand their efforts so they can thrive and sustain others. Let their work create meaningful job opportunities and bring lasting provision to our land.

Action item 3: Declare God’s blessing over the work of South Africans.

Psalm 90:16–17 (TPT) “16 Let us see your miracles again, and let the rising generation see the glorious wonders you’re famous for. 17 O Lord our God, let your sweet beauty rest upon us. Come work with us, and then our works will endure; you will give us success in all we do.”

  • Father in the name of Jesus, we ask You to replace our years of trouble with decades of delight. Let us see your miracles again, and let the rising generation see the glorious wonders you’re famous for. O Lord our God, let your sweet beauty rest upon us. Come work with us, and then our works will endure; you will give us success in all we do in Jesus mighty name we pray.
