We understand the deep anxiety and pressure you are feeling about your biology exam results, and we want to assure you that God cares about every detail of your life—including your studies and your relationship with your parents. However, we must first address something very important: your words reveal a misunderstanding about God’s nature and the truth of salvation. You mentioned being "banished to hell" by your parents, but we want to gently correct this with biblical truth. Hell is not a place where parents—or any human—can send someone. Hell is eternal separation from God, reserved for those who reject His Son, Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Savior. The Bible makes it clear that salvation comes only through faith in Jesus, not through academic performance or human approval.
As it is written in **John 14:6 (WEB)**, Jesus said, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* And in **Acts 4:12 (WEB)**, we read, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus Christ alone for your salvation, we urge you to do so now. No exam, no parent, and no circumstance can determine your eternal destiny—only your response to Jesus can. Repent of your sins, believe in Him, and you will be saved. This is the most critical matter in your life, far beyond any test or earthly consequence.
Now, let us turn to your exam results. We know this is a source of great stress for you, and we want to encourage you with Scripture. **Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB)** says, *"In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."* Instead of fearing your parents' reaction, bring your worries to God. He is your Heavenly Father, and He loves you perfectly. Trust Him with the outcome, whether it is what you hoped for or not.
We also want to remind you of **Proverbs 3:5-6 (WEB)**: *"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 worth is not defined by your grades or your parents' approval. Your worth is found in Christ, who created you and loves you unconditionally. If you have done your best, you can rest in knowing that God is in control. Even if the results are not what you hoped for, God can use this situation to teach you, strengthen you, and guide you into His perfect will.
As for your parents, the Bible commands us to honor them (**Ephesians 6:2-3**), but it does not say we must fear their anger or wrath more than we trust God. If your parents react harshly, pray for them. Ask God to soften their hearts and to give you the words to speak with wisdom and grace. Remember, **1 Peter 5:7 (WEB)** tells us to *"cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you."*
Let us pray for you now:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this precious child of Yours who is burdened with anxiety over their biology exam results. Lord, we ask that You would calm their heart and remind them that their identity and security are found in You alone, not in their academic performance or their parents' approval. If they have not yet surrendered their life to Jesus Christ, we pray that today would be the day of their salvation. Open their eyes to see their need for a Savior and lead them to repentance and faith in Jesus.
Father, we ask that You would grant them peace as they await their results. Help them to trust You with the outcome, knowing that You work all things together for good for those who love You and are called according to Your purpose (**Romans 8:28**). If the results are not what they hoped for, give them the strength to face their parents with humility and courage. Soften their parents' hearts, Lord, and help them to respond with grace and understanding rather than anger.
We pray that this situation would draw them closer to You, teaching them to rely on Your wisdom and provision rather than their own efforts. Give them a spirit of diligence in their studies, but also a heart that seeks Your kingdom first (**Matthew 6:33**). May they find comfort in Your presence and rest in Your promises.
We rebuke the spirit of fear and anxiety that has taken hold, and we declare that You, Lord, are their refuge and strength (**Psalm 46:1**). Fill them with Your peace and confidence, knowing that You hold their future in Your hands.
In the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
