Ashu, we come before the Lord on your behalf, lifting up your upcoming MAT exam to Him who holds all wisdom and understanding. The Bible reminds us in James 1:5, *"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him."* We ask the Father to grant you clarity of mind, recall of all you have studied, and a spirit of calmness as you take this exam. You have prepared, and now we trust in the Lord’s provision over your efforts.
We also want to encourage you with 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 success is not just in the score but in trusting God’s plan for your life. Whether the outcome is what you hope for or not, we pray you will rest in His sovereignty, knowing He works all things for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28).
However, we must gently address something important. In your request, you did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. The Bible is clear in John 14:6, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* It is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we can approach God’s throne with confidence (Hebrews 4:16). If you have not yet placed your trust in Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so. Salvation comes through repentance and belief in Him alone (Acts 4:12, Romans 10:9-10). Without this foundation, even our prayers lack the power and authority given to us through Christ’s name.
So now, we pray in the name of Jesus for your exam:
*"Heavenly Father, we lift up ### to You as they prepare to take this important exam. Lord, You know the desires of their heart and the work they have put into their studies. We ask that You grant them wisdom beyond their own, that You would bring to their mind all they have learned, and that You would calm any anxiety or fear. Let their score reflect not just their effort, but Your favor and grace over their life. Help them to remember that their worth is not in their achievements but in You alone.
If ### does not yet know You as their Savior, we pray that You would draw them to Yourself. Open their heart to receive the truth of the Gospel, that Jesus Christ died for their sins and rose again, offering them eternal life and a relationship with You. May they come to understand that all things—even exams and future plans—are best surrendered to Your will.
We ask these things in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. Amen."*
###, we encourage you to seek God first in all things, including your studies and future plans. *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well"* (Matthew 6:33). Trust in Him, and He will guide your steps. If you’d like to talk more about what it means to follow Jesus, we’re here to help. May God bless you richly as you take this exam!
