My son was very distrut today, as he told me he was about to loose His Job with a computer company ,where he makes pretty good money.
They had lost a bid to a goverment agency for over 12,000,000 in computer sales of which he expected to make at least 5 per cent, that is quite a commission.
He said he thought Friday they were going to let him go as they wouldn't need him for this account management and sales, since they had lost the bid to another company.
So I told him that to those that believe all things come in order to advance, a child of God is promised never to have to beg for bread.
So I lifted a prayer in the way I was taught by pentecostal preacher kenneth Hagin.
After Blessing our God in the usual Hebrew way I said, "angel of the Lord ,You who ministers unto us, In The name of Yeshua, Go forth ahead of my son and open doors for him, cause all things in his business to fall in place. and that he might remain in the same business until Our Lord decides he to do something else.
In the name of Yeshua Amen And Amen And Amen.
We remain talking for about an hour or so about what options he had ,if he should apply to another company or open his own business.
the Phone rang ,my phone that is, and someone asked for him although He doesn't live with me.
So that in itself is strange and a man asked if he was the one that worked for this company, he reply yes.
SO the man said someone in that goverment agency , had recommend it him as an honest and hard working person, in fact the Buyer for the goverment equipment said, we would like to continue to deal with him, so instead of getting someone new to handle the account, why don't you try and recluet my son ?
So the caller Identify himself as the vice president of this large computer company ,you all probably see their adds on tv all the time.
He said to my son, i just want to know what we have to do to get you to come to work for us ? and handle this contract we won the bid and we are not familiar with that market, the way they won the bid will probably end up being about 40 million dollars instead of 12 million.
So my son played it cool and negotiated on the phone with this man and sent his resume and he got all the paper work to begin to work for this company in 2 weeks after he trains for 1 week with this new company.
My son right away began to inquired who recommended him and we found out it was the chief buyer for this large goverment agency and the Guy happens to be a Baptist Minister down south from us.
The Man has made my son one of his friends or I should say best friend, he knew before my son he was going to be fired on friday and was worried about Him.
He says one hour before, he was sitting having lunch with all his buyers from different departments and a rep from the computer companyand they were discussing who was going to be their new account rep. with this New Supplier.
When suddenly 4 or 5 people said at one time "Alex" should continue to service us, he is so nice and humble and aims to please.
The pastor said Oh Yeah the Young messianic jew, I like him and he is one of God's chosen people, I love Israel " The Company Rep said yea I love Israel also, Am Half Jewish myself.
So the Chief Buyer (The pastor) said why don't you call him and hire him ?
When they finish eating he gave the rep.my phone # because he had a flyer from My church inviting him for Passover.
Isn't the Lord wonderfull and what powers he has given us.
Praise be The Lord for His goodness and Love.

Halelujah! That's good news. I'm happy for him!

Seems your son's christian behavior proved God's word correct again! He's is good, and His mercies are new every morning. You can't deny that when you are "inline" spiritually other people notice it...and nearly always its in a favorable light. Gee, I just got excited for a complete stranger...strange.
(Hey, I'm not sure messianic jews use the term "christian" or not. I would think they do, but take no offense if I'm culturally ignorant.)

Alex very pleased to hear that your prayer for your son was answered and he won't have to worry about employment.
I find this very odd that your son would be going through a job crisis at the same time my son is. It drove me to pray again for God to guide my son right now. He just got out of the Marines in December and the job market just did not seem to be going his way. Well he finally landed a nice managerial job with a communications firm that he started to work at just this past Monday.
Well of course since he had the job in his pocket now it seems like every one wants to offer him a job now!!! Last Friday another company offered him a job, they said they would beat what the other company was paying him, they beat the offer he had by $10K but he turned them down due to the commute. Well then of course he gets home from his first day on his new job just to get another company offering him a LOT more money if he is granted a TS/SBI security clearance. We talked for quite a while last night on the phone, needless to say he is quite confused as to what is the right thing to do.
The draw back with the new offer is that they will not hire him until after he is cleared, in the mean time if he decides to accept thier offer, he has to let his present employer know what is going on to where while they are doing the background checks on him they can speak to his present employer! Needless to say we know that his present employeer he just started with is going to drop him like a hot potato! So in other words more then likely if he takes them up on the new job offer he will lose his present job and sit around for at least three months waiting for his clearance to come through for the new job.
I worked in the "Black world" for 15 1/2 years and have never heard of an employer having someone run through getting a clearance before they start thier new job. Heck one place I worked for they had folks sitting around in some cases over a year before they were granted thier clearance! I told him that what ever he decided I would back him up on it, but advised him to tell them that he knows most employeers do hire folks before they get thier clearance.

The Thing to do is to stay put in the place God already gave him, he knows best where we belong, just a thought Taz.

That is basically what I have told him without telling him if you get my drift Alex. I am hoping and praying that he stays where he is at, but he is 26 and if he takes the other job he will have to learn from his mistakes.
