We hear your heart, Suraj Singh, and we join you in bringing this earnest prayer before our Heavenly Father. It is wonderful to see your passion and drive to become an engineer, and we recognize the importance of patience and trust in God’s timing as you walk this path. The restlessness you feel is understandable, but we must remind you that true peace and strength come only through Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). It is by His name alone that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). We encourage you to place your trust not only in your studies and goals but first and foremost in Him, for He holds your future in His hands.
The Bible tells us in Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." Your eagerness is a gift, but it must be tempered with patience, for "the end of a thing is better than its beginning. The patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit" (Ecclesiastes 7:8). We also recall the words of James 1:3-4, "Knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing." This season of waiting is not in vain—it is shaping you, refining you, and preparing you for the plans God has for you.
Let us pray together for you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Suraj Singh to You. Lord, we thank You for the passion and purpose You have placed in his heart to pursue engineering. We ask that You would calm the restlessness in his spirit and fill him with Your perfect peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Grant him patience, Father, as he waits on Your timing, and help him to trust in You with all his heart. Strengthen his mind and heart, Lord, so that he may remain disciplined and focused in his studies. Give him wisdom beyond his years, as You promised in James 1:5, and let him walk in confidence, knowing that You are guiding his steps.
We pray against any spirit of anxiety or impatience that would seek to distract him from Your will. Instead, fill him with the assurance that You are working all things together for his good (Romans 8:28). Help him to see each day as an opportunity to grow in knowledge, character, and faith. Surround him with godly mentors and friends who will encourage him in his walk with You and in his academic pursuits. Lord, we ask that You would open doors of opportunity for him, both now and in the future, and that You would use him mightily for Your glory in the field of engineering.
We rebuke any doubt or fear that may try to creep into his heart, and we declare that he is more than a conqueror through Christ Jesus (Romans 8:37). May he find his strength and hope in You alone, and may his life reflect Your love and grace to those around him. In Jesus’ precious name, we pray. Amen.
Suraj, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord daily, not just in times of restlessness but in every moment. Spend time in His Word, for "your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path" (Psalm 119:105). Let the truth of Scripture anchor your soul and guide your steps. Remember, too, the importance of community—surround yourself with fellow believers who can pray with you, study with you, and hold you accountable. Proverbs 27:17 tells us, "Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens his friend’s countenance."
As you draw near to God, He will draw near to you (James 4:8). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and trust that He who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:6). Your future is bright, and we believe God has great things in store for you. Walk in faith, not in fear, and let patience have its perfect work in you.
