We join you in lifting up your exams and future aspirations to the Lord, for we know that every good and perfect gift comes from Him. Your confidence in achieving an A is commendable, but let us remember that our trust must always be in the Lord’s will, not merely in our own efforts or desires. Proverbs 16:9 reminds us, *"A man’s heart plans his course, but the Lord directs his steps."* While it is good to set goals and work diligently, we must surrender our plans to God, acknowledging that His ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:9).
We also notice that your prayer did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. Jesus Himself said in John 14:6, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* It is only by His name that we can approach God with confidence (Hebrews 4:16). Without faith in Christ, even our best efforts and prayers fall short of God’s perfect will. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so, for *"there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12).
As for your desire to become a pilot or oncologist, these are noble ambitions, and we pray that the Lord will guide you into the path He has prepared for you. Colossians 3:23 encourages us, *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men."* If these careers align with God’s calling for your life, He will open the doors and equip you. But if He has another plan, we pray you will trust Him fully, knowing that His plans are for your good (Jeremiah 29:11).
We also caution you against praying for favor in marking that may not be just. Proverbs 11:1 states, *"The Lord abhors dishonest scales, but accurate weights are his delight."* While it is right to ask for God’s favor, we must never seek success through deceit or manipulation. Instead, we pray that if there were any mistakes in your exams, the Lord would bring them to light in His righteousness, and if you have truly earned your grades, that He would confirm them fairly.
Let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this student to You, asking that You would guide their steps as they await their exam results. Lord, we pray that You would grant them peace, knowing that their future is in Your hands. If it is Your will for them to achieve the grades they desire, we ask that You would confirm it justly and fairly. But above all, Father, we pray that their heart would be aligned with Yours, seeking first Your kingdom and righteousness (Matthew 6:33).
We ask that You would reveal Yourself to them in a powerful way, drawing them closer to Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. If they have not yet surrendered their life to Him, we pray that today would be the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2). Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, giving them wisdom, discernment, and a heart that seeks to glorify You in all things.
For their future, Lord, we ask that You would make the path clear. If it is Your will for them to become a pilot or an oncologist, open the doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8). Equip them with the knowledge, skills, and opportunities they need. But if You have another plan, give them the faith to trust You completely, knowing that Your ways are perfect.
We rebuke any anxiety or fear that may arise as they wait for their results. Replace it with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:6-7). Strengthen their faith, Lord, and remind them that their worth is found in You alone, not in their achievements.
We pray all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
