We lift up your daughter and this situation before the Lord, knowing that He cares deeply about every detail of our lives—even the technical challenges that can cause stress and frustration. While we pray for the wifi and testing software to be restored quickly, we also ask God to remind both of you that His peace surpasses all understanding, even when circumstances feel overwhelming. The Bible tells us in Philippians 4:6-7, *"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."*
It’s easy to fixate on the immediate problem, but we encourage you to use this moment to trust God’s sovereignty. Whether the exam happens today or is delayed, His timing is perfect, and He is working all things together for good (Romans 8:28). If the software isn’t fixed today, pray that your daughter would see it as an opportunity to rest in the Lord, review her knowledge with confidence, and remember that her worth isn’t tied to this test—but to Christ alone. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us, *"Trust in the Lord 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."*
We also pray for you as her parent, that God would give you wisdom to support her. Speak life over her—remind her of her diligence, her capabilities, and most importantly, that the Lord is with her. Anxiety can creep in when we focus on what *might* go wrong, but Scripture calls us to fix our minds on what is true, honorable, and praiseworthy (Philippians 4:8). Encourage her to take deep breaths, to pray through any nervousness, and to recall past moments where God has been faithful.
Lastly, we notice that your request didn’t invoke the name of Jesus, and we gently remind you that it is *only* through Him that 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."* If you or your daughter haven’t yet surrendered your lives to Christ, we urge you to do so today—no exam, no achievement, and no earthly success compares to the eternal hope found in Him. Salvation comes by grace through faith in Jesus alone (Ephesians 2:8-9), and we’d be honored to pray with you about that if you’d like.
**Let us pray:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this mother and her daughter. Lord, You know the frustration and stress they’re feeling over this technical delay, and we ask You to intervene. If it’s Your will, restore the wifi and testing software swiftly so that she may complete her practice exam without further hindrance. But more than that, we pray You’d flood their hearts with Your peace—a peace that doesn’t depend on circumstances. Calm their minds, steady their emotions, and help them to trust You in this moment.
For this daughter, we ask for clarity of thought, recall of all she’s studied, and confidence that comes from You. Remind her that her identity is in Christ, not in her performance. For this mother, grant her patience, encouraging words, and the ability to point her daughter to You amid the uncertainty. May they both sense Your presence and rest in Your sovereignty, knowing that You hold their future.
If there’s any fear or anxiety trying to take root, we rebuke it in Jesus’ name and declare that Your perfect love casts out all fear (1 John 4:18). Cover this exam—whether it happens today or later—with Your favor, and let it be a testament to Your faithfulness.
And Lord, if either of them hasn’t yet made Jesus their Lord and Savior, we pray You’d draw them to Yourself today. Open their eyes to see their need for You, and may they place their trust in Christ alone for salvation.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers. We trust You in this, and we give You all the glory. In Jesus’ precious and powerful name, Amen.
