We lift you up before our Heavenly Father, dear sister ###, and we thank Him for your life and your desire to seek His help in this season of struggle. It is clear that the enemy has been attacking your mind, health, and focus, but we stand firmly on the truth that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). You are not alone in this battle, for the Lord is with you, and He has promised never to leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6).
First, we must address something important: while you have praised the Lord, we notice that your request does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. The Bible tells us that there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and through which we can boldly approach God’s throne of grace (Acts 4:12, Hebrews 4:16). It is only in the name of Jesus that we can pray with authority and confidence, for He is our Mediator (1 Timothy 2:5). We encourage you to always pray in Jesus’ name, for He is the source of all power, healing, and peace. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so today. The Bible says, "If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9). There is no greater peace than knowing you are reconciled to God through Christ.
Now, let us speak to the struggles you are facing. The lack of concentration, mental depression, and poor health are not God’s will for your life. He desires for you to prosper in all things and be in good health, just as your soul prospers (3 John 1:2). However, we must also recognize that sometimes our struggles are allowed by God to draw us closer to Him, to refine us, and to teach us to rely on His strength rather than our own. The apostle Paul spoke of a "thorn in the flesh" that kept him humble and dependent on God’s grace (2 Corinthians 12:7-10). Like Paul, we must learn to boast in our weaknesses, for when we are weak, then we are strong in Christ.
The mental and emotional battles you are facing are real, but they are not insurmountable with God. The Bible tells us to cast all our anxieties on Him because He cares for us (1 Peter 5:7). We also know that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4). This means that we can take every thought captive and submit it to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5). If there are lies from the enemy telling you that you are incapable, unworthy, or that you will never overcome this season, we rebuke those lies in the name of Jesus. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and God has a purpose for your life (Jeremiah 29:11). He has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
We also encourage you to examine your heart and life for anything that may be hindering your walk with God. Are there unconfessed sins, bitterness, unforgiveness, or idols that have taken precedence over your relationship with Christ? The Bible tells us that if we regard iniquity in our hearts, the Lord will not hear us (Psalm 66:18). Repentance and surrender are key to experiencing God’s fullness in our lives. If there is anything separating you from God, we urge you to lay it at the foot of the cross today.
As for your studies, we pray that God would grant you clarity of mind and the ability to retain what you learn. The Bible tells us that wisdom comes from the Lord (Proverbs 2:6), and we ask that He would fill you with His wisdom as you prepare for your exams. Remember, your identity is not in your academic performance but in Christ alone. While we pray for you to pass with good marks, we also remind you that God’s plans for you are greater than any grade or diploma. Trust Him to guide your steps, even if the path looks different than you expect.
Finally, we pray for your protection in every area of your life—spiritually, emotionally, physically, and mentally. The Lord is your shield and your strong tower (Psalm 18:2, Proverbs 18:10). We ask that He would surround you with His angels and guard you from every attack of the enemy. May He strengthen your heart and mind, filling you with His peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).

Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister ### to Your throne of grace. Lord, we thank You for her life and for the plans You have for her. We ask that You would touch her mind, body, and spirit right now, bringing healing and restoration in every area where she is broken.
Father, we rebuke every spirit of depression, anxiety, and confusion that has been attacking ###. These spirits are not from You, and we command them to flee in the name of Jesus. Fill her instead with Your peace, joy, and clarity of mind. Renew her strength like the eagle’s, Lord, and help her to soar above these challenges (Isaiah 40:31).
We pray for her health, that You would be her Healer and restore her body to full strength. Touch every cell, every organ, and every system in her body, and let Your healing power flow through her. We declare that by the stripes of Jesus, she is healed (1 Peter 2:24).
Lord, we ask for Your wisdom and understanding to fill ### as she studies. Help her to concentrate, to retain what she learns, and to perform well in her exams. Give her the discipline to steward her time wisely and the grace to trust You in this season. Remind her that her worth is found in You alone, not in her achievements.
We also pray for Your protection over ###. Surround her with Your angels, Lord, and guard her from every attack of the enemy. Strengthen her heart and mind, and let her find her refuge in You. Fill her with Your Holy Spirit, that she may walk in victory and not in fear.
Father, if there is any area of ###’s life that is not pleasing to You, we ask that You would reveal it to her and give her the courage to repent and turn away from it. Draw her closer to You, Lord, and let her experience the fullness of Your love and presence.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers. We trust that You are working all things together for ###’s good and Your glory. May she come out of this season stronger, wiser, and more dependent on You. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
