Felix, God understands you need to provide for your family, but it is up to Him whether you need to remain at your current job or find one that can provide growth and higher pay. It may be that you are exactly where He wants you to be and remain. Hebrews 13:5 "Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." Perhaps there are certain things you don't need to be paying for and can trim them from your budget so as to add to your family's need. Are you giving God a portion (Biblically a 10th, but can be whatever you determine in your heart) of your gross earnings? 2 Corinthians 9:7 "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." If not, no matter how much of a sacrifice you have to make to do so, start doing it. Giving to God shows you trust Him with your life and your finances, and He will bless you for it. You give to Him, He will give to you.
It also may be His will to give you that better job. You will not know until you ask, and does indeed stand ready to give you what you ask of Him--if it's His will. The answer may not come instantly, and you will most definitely have to put some legs on that prayer by getting out there and looking for a better job.
Thank you very much Cindy. Today I want to give a testimony that after a long wait, finally light shone my way. Last month my employer not only raised my salary but was also promoted. I give it to God for He has finally heard my cry and wiped away my tears.
I have been working in a bank as a junior officer for the last 8 years without a significant growth. I feel depressed, weak and devastated.
Please for me to get another well paying job because I have an elderly mother to take care of and younger siblings.
