😂😂 This comment made me laugh so hard
I wish it was that easy ..but still made me laugh
@@redrobin494 I just read revelation 4 this morning and the chapter reminds me that everything has to bow at the name of Jesus. I’ve been dealing with some struggles of my own at work and this chapter just reminded me that God is over and above every “enemy.” Maybe this will encourage you the way it did me😊
@@katex2224 well praise God Kate thank you I consider this a message straight from God's lips! Can't wait to go read it right now thank you baby girl
For anyone who is struggling with a job situation, persevere and keep asking the Lord for strength! The Lord is able to use our work to make us better and teach us! When then the time is right for you to move on the door will open, but persevere and let the LORD use it to refine you! GOD BLESS
That's what I feel like that are going to start doing is when I go off to our bathroom on each day and just pray to him and private and I feel like he helps us out as Christians if we need help cuz that's what he's there to do for us I guess that it is good idea to bring our problems to him
@@jeffreyhooper4307 That's what I basically do every day.. the bathroom becomes like my prayer closet, God knows!
My job is physically, mentally, emotionally exhausting. I had to go to the bathroom and just cry to God! I feel broken everyday when I walk through the door. It's like my whole mood shifts immediately. I try to walk in with a positive attitude and suddenly you're being bombarded with negativity. I just want to give up and walk out but I cant. 1 I need the money and 2 I just can't walk out. I've been a CNA for almost 10 years and It's hard to see myself doing something else. My down fall is over working myself also.
I pray things are better for you in Jesus name.
I've been through the same. My boss I toxic, to the point I feel sick at work.
I’m currently going through the same thing. Dreading my job and leaving the day in tears. Asking God to help me remain thankful but idk what to do. I can’t quit either. Hopefully you have found a better job by now 💗
@@samanthalynn923 well because of you I was reminded about this comment.... Recently God changed my perspective! I'm still at the same place but my mind shifted. He answered my prayer! Thanks for that, and I know He will answer your prayer too. 😃
@@ladennayoung2939 well I guess our prayers worked! My whole mindset has changed, praise God! I no longer dread my job🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
This was very helpful! I’m I’m in a job that I don’t enjoy at all so I’m going to try some of these.
Even though I am in an answered prayer I don’t fully understand why I’m in my current role because overall I am so unhappy. I’ve been praying for a renewed mind and a more grateful perspective because I know God has me here for a reason. If anyone sees this and could pray for me I would appreciate it and would love to pray for you too ❤️
Prayers for you!!! I’m in the same situation. The Lord led me here but I’m not sure why because it’s the hardest job I’ve ever had
Really needed to hear this. It is not my responsibility to improve all the operations at my job. It’s been driving me crazy and I release it in the name of Jesus!!!
Im thankful to have a job and income to pay my bills but I hate my job and I pray everyday for my coworkers and the situation to get better because it's too stressful with management who don't know what they're doing and cause people to quit constantly . I pray for my dream career , because it's too stressful and I have sinful thoughts against them . Pray for me .
Story of my Life.
This is a big struggle. Many employers do not want people to have good boundaries. I found this out as a caregiver.
I couldn't switch it off, and when I started to make boundaries, like not being called in my days off, my last employer had me resign papers that stated I would be willing to work whenever asked.
That is crazy.
When your employer will not respect your limitations and boundaries, then it's time to consider leaving.
I'm glad he said sometimes quitting is the best answer cus all I'm seeing are articles where written for believers to hold onto faith in the midst of working in a toxic workplace environment.
I appreciate your comment! I feel everyone is saying to stay but the answer may very well be to leave .
Yeah, I do think this "stay by all means" is rather dangerous, if the workplace environment really is toxic... I do think that leaving is a good option in that case.. God bless.
Being in education, I definitely do not do what I do for money. But with everything that we are dealing with burnout is happening quickly!!
Teachers don’t get the pay and recognition they deserve. I pray that God will lead me to a fulfilling career that glorifies him
I work for a "christian" charity. Me and my colleagues are constantly sick due to stress and understaffing. It's full of entitled women pretending they are homeless. Its so discouraging...but the staff are so kind..
I am fortunate to be blessed by God in having my career be my calling as well. It's unfortunate there are many people out there who are not happy with what they do, and that makes it more challenging. Love that coffee comment.
Thanks
I just quit my job, I had a supervisor who would never do any work, and put all the work on me to inbound and outbound trucks in to the warehouse
This popped-up on my feed in Feb 2022 & is very timely.
I am very grateful for the jobs I've had, my career as a Physics/Engineer Geek, and callings in various volunteer activities.
However, my girlfriend, KLH, is a very experienced, dedicated Kindergarten Teacher who is having a rough time due to a change in management of the school, in particular. She has stood by me through rough times, and I ask that you lift up "Miss Kerry" in prayer that the Holy Spirit protects and encourages her.
I use to work 6 days a week and then switched around my job description and really started putting priorities in order I now work 3 times per week and make the same amount of cash per month that I use to kill myself over I prayed and God provided. These are all great tips.
That's awesome Mary
Amazing.
Mary Swenson 🙏🏾🙏🏾
whats ur secret? i work 6 days a week as well doing 2 jobs.
Man, I’ve been feeling guilty because I don’t like my job. I just moved to a new city and this job gave me the opportunity to get here. I knew when I moved here I would keep applying for jobs as I knew I didn’t even want to be in this current role for even a month. Well 5mo later I’m still here...interview after interview and nothing has changed yet. I feel bad sometimes because I do have a job and that’s more than most. I feel bad sometimes like I’m ungrateful to the Lord. I’m really working to shift my perspective this is just a job...and that’s it. Maybe I don’t have to love it. But I definitely need to change my perspective because I’m still here.
Hi, how’s it going for you? Are you still in the same job?
As someone who works as a CNA in a hospital these tips are sage advice.
You hit the nail on the head about it being ok to work for the money,not that it has to have some sort of important meaning to it. I’ve been struggling with this myself,thinking that my job doesn’t feel real valuable,it’s been getting me down a bit.
I wish my work would just stay at work. I work in the casino as a dealer seeing people loosing money all the time made me feel so sad and depressed. After work I have to deal with my husband’s gambling problems. I feel like I never left my workplace. Everyday I become more and more miserable. Seeing all this sad people losing their paychecks and house due to gambling. And seeing my own family falling apart due to gambling is very depressing. The pay is good but not worth my health. I want to work somewhere that I can make a difference and feel proud everyday. I’m still looking for that jobs, hopefully soon I will fine it!!☺️
Great words. I do not have a job I hate but I often feel it is not the PERFECT FIT. But I also realize NOTHING IS PERFECT. So thank you for the reminder and the encouragement . The separation and definition of job, career and calling is brilliant. Thanks.
So glad this was useful to you Chris!
Your wisdom and understanding and knowledge is invaluable to me! God led me to this video today because I’m ready to walk out of my “job”.. almost every point you brought up applied to me today. thank you thank you thank you. This is definitely your “calling”
Love your points and while I agree that it’s ok to simply work a job to earn money, many companies take issue with an employee who simply works as a mean to make a paycheck. A lot of companies want you to be committed to the mission of the company which also includes working more than 40 hours and not having a work life balance. Especially as you climb the corporate ladder.
I have to agree
Lol wish my company had a mission. They expect to work more than 40 hrs with no reason for me to want to do that
My career is electric technology.
My job is large scale food batchmaking.
My calling is biblical knowledge in the context of the multigenerational household.
I been doing myself a disservice by not allowing people at my job to fail. I have ideas they acknowledge they need to change but told it’s not going to change and that’s the way it is. Yesterday I got the feeling that everything is about to blow up in their face but that’s not my problem to handle. They chose for the work environment to be the way it is.
Best video ever. Exactly what I needed sincerely wish I had this year's ago...a definite share
Been praying into this area to be the best follower of the Lord. Thank you!
Amen
Ohhhhh Mark my mouth just fell open at the 4:40 mark.... this is something I just prayed this morning about. Asking God to show me to be balanced in my helping others but mainly doing my job first bc I have been getting burned helping others not bc I do it wrong but for some other unforeseen variables. Mannnn this is so good
Meeeee toooooo!
Praise God!
i like my job but i just don't like some people that works there.
i feel they hate me and gossip about me
Do you have proof that they hate you or gossip about you
Codename Stephen sometimes it’s obvious hun
Same and they boost their numbers to get paid more and leave the brunt of work to others. No proof to the person who brings himself to ask.
Sonia Monique You damn tight. Coworkers show it they don’t hide it at all. Their ACTION SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.
Same
I work as a cashier. Sometimes, dealing with people is the most irritating job. But, think about it, these customers are only after what they’re buying. They buy things either out of need or selfishness. They use coupons out of either need or selfish, and etc. However the Cashier’s job is not to judge them. It is to serve both the customers and the rules of the store/boss. Meaning, often a Cashier will get into an argument and asked to stand on only as much as they can do, but also, as much as they should do. Judging and arguing is often not worth it. The Cashier needs to step back, let the Manager deal with it, or even let the customer win in what they believe, for it is only one customer, one person displeased. We can not please everyone. All we can do is be the best person we can be. For a Cashier is the last person a customer interacts with before walking out of the store. They are the climax of the movie and nearly define the shopping experience. So if the Cashier makes it a descent, even good experience, rather than judging, making argues, or denying freewill be done in front of them (good or mainly bad) than he/she is not just a good example of Jesus, but has fulfilled their role as a Cashier, the end of a movie they may even watch again.
Venting = complaining and as Christians we are not to do that . Thank you !
Man I tell ya, I work at Arby’s , it’s frustrating and stressful because ppl want things when they want it , God uses these things to purify me through the fire 🔥 yes my flesh hates it , it’s like a furnace of affliction , but I try and remember to count it joy , I get some ear pods and listen to the word or praise and worship , if that’s what it takes , get one of those face shield mask things if you have to wear a mask . Been working there since 2015 , I only make 8.15 an hr , we don’t get breaks , it’s exhausting but I’m believing for God to make a better way that’s all I can say
Love this response to your circumstances. ❤God bless you as you seek to please him. Remember, what reward do we have if everyone is kind to us. We are to be light. Stand strong my sister.
When I thought God had called me to glorify his name playing music I was so happy because playing music was something that I always wanted to do, because I love music.
The reality is: I was forced to be a receptionist because I was prevented by my adoptive mother to learn music and forced by her to study that sh*t. Being a receptionist it's not even a career because I don't want to specialize in it. It's just "I go to my job I get my freaking money at the end of the month and screw everybody else". If it wasn't because of the money I wouldn't even wake up in the morning...i do truly HATE that job. Like HATE IT. Truly DESPISE for the career path that I was FORCED Into.
So, not only do I not have a calling, I don't even have a career...I just have a freaking job that I hate. I'm happy I'm jobless. Because with a Job that you hate you're happier jobless. I'm deadly serious I've been jobless for over two years...and I was happy AF just for the sake of not having to be a receptionist. As long as I'm covered I'm freaking fine. And, yes it is painful that God doesn't want me to become a professional classical musician for his glory as I prayed to Him...but looking it from a positive perspective since I don't want to get married and I don't want to have children...I'm going to save a lot of money, time and effort:
Expenses only for classes and violin rent around 250euros a month. Strings: 65 euros each six month.
Practicing time: 5 hours a day.
Rosin:around 30€.
IIf He does not want me to Glorify his name playing the violin and actually having a musical career for his glory then I'll just spend my money in whatever the heck I want, watch Netflix the entire afternoon and travel around the planet in my holidays.
It's easier for me not to glorify Him playing the violin than actually doing it.
So let's be practical: better for me.
I needed to hear this. I've really felt unsatisfied, frustrated, etc etc at my job lately.... and it's simply because I am burned out....because of aaaaaallllll of the things you've mentioned. So thank you, for calling out the errant behaviors that lead to that. Lol.
I enjoyed this video, it was really encouraging.
The King James Version says "For the love of money is the root of all evil".
Thanks for clearing up some things I’ve neglected to observe and to act accordingly. This is a big issue among many christians I know.
This was great- I took pages and pages of notes. We forget the basics sometimes, getting lost in the world of work. Thanks for helping us understand how to separate the 2!
So glad this was helpful!
after years of misery and knowing that my spirit is grieved bc of my workplace your clear and complete explanation of your spiritual perspective of our Christian walk withon the workplace has helped me tremendously with the right perspective...your share with this video strengthened what believed was already true with my identity. THANK YOU
Currently on my way to a job I hate, you touched on quite a few relevant topics. Thank you for the video!
Thank you for the advice. This is great. Proverbs 23:4 and 1 Timothy 6:10 really hit me hard. This will be a constant reminder for me to respect my boss no matter what.
Great wisdom. I hate my job. I need a change.
I dread work each day. It’s not a career. It’s a job I am trained in, maybe a career but I don’t like it. I thought it was a good fit for but I’m miserable and at times empathic. I make decent money and it’s not terrible. It’s just me, it requires me to get social and enthusiastic in a way I’m not. I pray and read the Bible, it gives me strength and in time, I hope God can help me find my true calling.
Thanks for this. I really needed this today. I'm on the verge of quitting.
Best advice I have found on this topic. Thanks for helping me to put my issues with my high stress job into perspective.
I'm so glad this was helpful :)
@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger Definitely helpful ❤️
So true about #2 but when you have a job that requires you to care for others i.e. healthcare that makes things really hard when someone isn't pulling there weight.
Very true, that's when it's helpful to have a good manager who can address the staff member in need of improvement
ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger Agreed
Thanks for this! Very insightful and practical! Especially the part where you said to set up boundaries. Lots of times, people bring home their work, although I can see that for some they don't really have a choice, like teachers, they have to make their teaching plans, but definitely important to have a time set apart for rest and leisure or one can burn out. And to have time for priorities especially family. Also the part of venting, I think is very true, but I also think that it's important to allow the person to vent a little especially if the work has been stressful kinda like a pressure cooker that needs to bring out steam or else the person might explode, but to keep it in moderation because it can be borderline complaining.
Amen Doris Lim, I agree :)
Love my job, but I hate my negative, gossiping, jealous, lying and lazy coworkers
This was really good advice, I'm about to start a new job myself. The one that especially stuck with me was the one about not complaining about your boss, because it shows more about your character rather than theirs. I'm going to take these tips with me.
I'm new to your channel, this was the first vid for me. Subscribed!
My job was out of my control, I tried to last another 2 weeks but it was impossible to do without fear/conviction, everyone was getting everyone to slave for themselves and uncaring in the job (poor work) and kept getting interrupted non stop, I tried all I could do or think I could do so I quit, full of jezebels and stressed out angry unsociable people
I'm experiencing exactly that same situation. Even before I got hired I already sensed that Jezebel spirit in that workplace while I was processing my requirements for the job. I was still an applicant but I've already received unprofessional words from the employer. And now, I'm regretting being in this company. Each day I try to be as positive as I can but then, things in the workplace are really uncontrollable and I am being scolded because of that fact.
Thank you so much! This video came up at a great time. Lately I’ve been feeling exasperated at work. Usually work is the most enjoyable out of the things in my life aside From God and family. I’ve been weighing the costs and benefits since other employers have expressed interest in me. However, I love the flexibility of my job I love how I can help others and it also gives me opportunities to focus on other areas and projects in my life and it’s flexible enough where I can hopefully go back to school. So these tips can be very helpful
I really enjoy your channel!!!! So much! Such a sweet person and your innocent smile lights us up! The way you have a balance helps me see that my balance isn’t worldly, but just earthly good... thank you! Keep at it Mark! 🙌🏽☀️
Thanks so much for your encouragement, and I'm so glad this channel has been helpful to you!
Really enjoyed the video Thankyou. I’ve fallen down the trap of criticising and getting involved in things outside of my control causing untold stress. This video has helped me look at the whole situation fresh. Very grateful.
Thank you for this , I have to work on respecting my coworker even when she doesn’t deserve it because I am a reflection Christ 🙏🤍
Thank you. May God bless you and ur audience as well.
Mark, that proverb on coffee...I follow it at least once a day! Thank God for coffee beans en the enlightenment to know how to grind them! Lol!😆😃☕ On the point on respecting your boss, I try to remind myself that I'm really working for God-it helps with focusing. However, I will say that prayer is a Necessity when that "boss" mistreat you and your co-workers. This was a great video...it gave a good perspective as to what is priority. Once again, Thank you Mark. God bless!
Amen Rose, God is good :)
ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger Amen!
10:59 haha
I will pray that people that have character and respect others be the boss instead of those that lack it! I hate my job!
This is perfect timing for me. I’ve been looking for another work opportunity and nothing has been happening. It’s frustrating. I have been doing volunteer work and offering some talents I have for free...
Yes, that's very hard to deal with, I've been in that situation before too
2021 Very Good Information Mark...Thanks and YES Coffee Helps ☕🙏☕🙏
Jesus, please help me respect my new boss...
You totally cracked me up with the point about coffee
I saw this video too late! I quit my job last week and now I’m worried about my future!😢
I’m praying for you Elizabeth, I have been there.
God bless, sharing this with my sister now!!!
Thank you, Mark so much, I've been so stressed lately because I'm a Law student and I really want to do what God wants me to do, but what if I miss God's plan for my life? I really didn't make the difference between career, calling and a job, thank you, your video helped me a lot🙏🏻🤗
You are welcome, perhaps this video may help ruclips.net/video/v5bqmW8AR8I/видео.html
I admire you for taking this career on. I pray you are able to do this in the Lord's strength and have balance.
Much Blessing on your calling!
What if your employer is greedy and pays you poverty level pay to care for others needs?
It is astounding how employers take advantage of people.
What do you do when you want to continue helping someone but, the boss is selfish?
Coffee is good, decaf!
Tanya Stevens u quit (whatvu didnt say enything beter)
Sometimes it's just time to move on and find an employer who pays what you feel is correct
Tanya Stevens, that’s a good question. I’ve been at a job 6 years and I’m hardly making anything per hour (overall, we’re not paid well). We’ve complained. We’ve told the bosses. Some people have left. Others can’t leave because they lack job skills, they’re older and it would be hard for them to get hired some place, or some need the flexibility of the hours to fit with being a single parent.
I was a caregiver for 15 years and I totally get it. You do love the people, and it's a precious thing to care for those who are disabled and that others neglect.
However, you also have basic needs and have to make a living. It's a serious dilemma.
If I were younger, and I didn't make the mistakes I did, I would have gone to school and got some credentials to get into a higher paid position.
Look into some programs at a community college to the tech programs.
I recently quit a job because of the pay, and the management was awful. I realized that it was getting worse and not better.
I do miss the people and pray for them.
Thank you for speaking truth through scripture! Just subscribed!
Amen! I'm so glad you enjoyed this, and welcome to the channel!
Wow I really needed this. Right on point and on time. Can’t wait for your next video.
Amen, so glad this was timely for you msprettysunshine
Amazing already in just the 1st two minutes! Our problem is lumping the job, career and calling into 1!!...... hope I find more answers!
What if you are RESENTED for Doing a Great Job and for what you Make??!!! What if my Bosses are working Against Me??
This is a good comment. Also what about workplace mobbing.
Right!! I’m hated for staying true to myself!! I pray for my boss and moved on!!! God does NOT say stay where you’re being mistreated!!
Thank you brother Mike for sharing your wisdom! Very helpful
My pleasure :)
Thank you. I seriously needed this.
Setting up boundaries....very good advice
Hi,
This video came right on time. Points #4&5 were true confirmation for me!!
I noticed that all of you who say you hate your jobs says it’s a dread , it’s frustrating and stressful , I feel ya pain , but remember what we are fighting against , use the sword brothers and sister also anoint that place and pray , when no one is looking , command those spirits to go in Jesus name
I hate my job I'm serious its mind numbingly boring,,, advice if you notice everyday for a period time you hate it .... plan an exit strategy
Yes, leave but leave well, good advice, thx!
Dominick john Leave on good terms, with your employer.
will do:)
Very helpful! Thank you! I really needed this! God bless you!
Thank you very helpful God bless
👍
Hi Mark, I came across your channel and have seen a couple of your videos. I like the videos and your approach on the different topics. My current situation is I like my job but I do not like the environment I am in. There is gossip, hyprocrisy, lack of organization and unprofessionalism at times. I maintain professional and try to be amicable but trust no one. At times I have felt like just quitting but I know to make decisions based on emotions it not always the best option. All I can do is pray and include my co-workers in my prayers. My manager is aware of the situation and complains about it and at other times seems to look the other way. Blessings to you and yours.
Thanks! I'm reminded that yes, i should pray for my workmates too and that i should not decide based on my emotions. I'll try that tomorrow!
I still pray for a new job, but this will help till then. Thank you for this.
Definitely needed this!!!
Amen!
I needed this video
thumbs up loved this video. thank you!
I feel like my boss is obsessed with me. She goes out of her way to make me miserable and is constantly trying to hold me hostage after my shift has already ended. How can I possibly respect her?
Can you do a video on jealousy and how to really overcome it? I'm struggling with this as being single and wanting a mate so bad I envy couples
Leah M. Pray against that spirit....
Njeri A Buncamper will God take it away from me?
Leah M. Yes. Pray for those couples. Pray that they have long lasting happy God filled marriages and pray for yourself too.
Leah M. I totally relate
Njeri A Buncamper thank you I’m only 22 I’ll be 23 in oct. I’ve developed this 8months after my brother got married which was last year because I feel I will never receive anyone and plus my family makes over him and his wife and my mom told me since I have these feelings I’ll never receive my mate which makes me act worse about it and worry . Plus he was always less religious than me he didn’t save himself for marriage and I did and he party and stuff and I’ve always been the Christian sibling. My mom told me she never saw jealousy coming from me should I feel bad? Every time I tell her she gets upset
Another extremely helpful video and an excellent article. Thank you so much!!
Hey Pastor Mark! I enjoyed this video!
👍 awesome :)
Well said,,👍👌🙏
God bless!
I believe I’ll hate mine once I graduate but only God knows,I’ll trust in Him coz He gave it to me🤷♂️🤷♂️
I am 63, widowed for 17 years.
I appreciate your videos very much.
I can't seem to get a longing for a Christian mate out of my mind.
I have a handicapped adult son who I feel is one of my ministries.
I have have had 3 dating relatinships only in the past 5 years.
God clearly said no to all three.
I just feel lost without a mate but want Jesus to be my all in all.
Do you know older people who have married again? Are they happily married?
We are so set in our ways at this age.
Thanks for any advice.
God bless!
Thank you!🤍
Thank you so much for this..
Thanks for this!
My pleasure!
So pretty much just stay at a job you dont like, even if it makes you unhappy?
Nope. God didn’t say stay in a place of mitreatment
My boss would constantly say"Idle hands are the devils work"...ugh!!
best solution: be a farmer, ur land, ur rules, ur neck.
Great video that help put somethings in more perspective for me. I wish I saw this 3 years ago but seeing this now really helped. What you said about keeping boundaries and letting others fail or succeed resonated with me. I try to help those a bit to much because I didn’t have help succeeding but realize now that was overstepping. My boundaries of my job but it brought me peace to know that I helped someone... is there something wrong about that?
Some questions I have are:
if you establish boundaries at your job aren’t you also holding yourself back and not showing you can do more if you want to move to a higher position?
For those who are more sensitive ( not having thick skin) how to not take everything so personally?
For me I'm just a high school student and I have been called to ministry but for now I'm stuck in school...
And I can't stand it I just want to die Everytime I have to work I feel like I'm just in mind numbing pain I have a job I work hard at and I lead 2 bible studies and I enjoy all 3 of those things but when it comes to school I just want to do anything else I would rather work for 12 hours at my job than spend 7-8 hours doing school
It's a good life lesson to learn how to suffer and still accomplish the task. So even though school may not help you in other ways, God can use it to give you endurance and strong work ethic. Many people quit when the don't like something, but to really succeed in life there will be seasons of just grinding. Learn to grind away, it will bless you in the future :)
@@ApplyGodsWordcomMarkBallenger thank you so much for helping me I am trying to not complain to make it bigger in my head and to try to endure this I'm a senior and I only have a few months left but I just am in such turmoil
If you hate your job transfer to a another position, or find good things to say and have in work.
Thank you for this advice. I pray that you visit a local Church of Christ when you get the chance. 🙏😇
Speaking of the Corinthians and the Macedonians, I remember reading about that. And by the way, Mark, I'm half Macedonian descent.
Cool
Haha,,, I totally needed to hear this.
40 two and three year olds in one room is why I'm burned out 😂
thanks for your tips😊
