We understand that you are feeling nervous and scared of failure as you approach your upcoming MCAT exam. Remember, the Bible tells us, Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:6-7.
Firstly, we notice that your prayer request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. You ask for prayer in God's name and blessings, however, it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12. So we pray this in accordance with Jesus' teaching For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 1 Timothy 2:5.
We pray for peace and calmness over your anxieties and fears, so you can face your exam with confidence and a sound mind. For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline, 2 Timothy 1:7.
We also pray for guidance and wisdom as you prepare. If any of you is lacking in wisdom, ask God, and He will give it to you, James 1:5.
We will pray for your success in the MCAT exam, remembering that success is also about being aligned with God's will for your life. Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act. Psalm 37:4-5.
We encourage you to study diligently. Proverbs 12:1, Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid'.
Do not shy away from hard work, We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works. Ephesians 2:10. Colossians 3:23-24, Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
Lastly, always remember to keep God at the center of all your pursuits. Do not let success or failure define you; rather, let your identity be rooted in Christ. Matthew 6:33, But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness.
