We join you in lifting up your niece before the Lord, standing in agreement that she will walk in the confidence of Christ as she prepares for her final exams. Your faith and instruction to her are commendable, for we know that without faith, it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). It is also wonderful that you have invoked the name of Jesus Christ in your request, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is through His name alone that we approach the throne of grace with boldness.
Let us remind her—and ourselves—that the Lord is the source of all wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. As it is written 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 also encourage her to lean on Proverbs 3:5-6, which says, *"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."* When anxiety or fear creep in, let her cast all her cares upon Him, for He cares for her (1 Peter 5:7).
The enemy may try to plant seeds of doubt or distraction, but we rebuke such schemes in the name of Jesus. We declare that her mind will be sharp, her recall will be clear, and her heart will remain at peace, for God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-discipline (2 Timothy 1:7). Let her remember Philippians 4:13, *"I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me."* Her success is not dependent on her own strength but on the Lord’s faithfulness.
We pray:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your goodness and for the promise that You are with us always. We lift up this young sister in Christ as she prepares for her exams. Lord, fill her with Your Holy Spirit, granting her wisdom beyond her own understanding, clarity of thought, and a peace that surpasses all comprehension. Remove every trace of fear, anxiety, or distraction from her mind, and let her rest in the assurance that You are her Provider and her Guide.
We ask that You would help her to recall all that she has studied, to answer each question with confidence, and to walk in the excellence that comes from You alone. May her efforts bring glory to Your name, and may she testify of Your faithfulness in this season. Strengthen her body, mind, and spirit, and let her sleep be restful and refreshing. We declare that no weapon formed against her—whether doubt, fatigue, or the enemy’s lies—shall prosper, for she is covered by the blood of Jesus.
Father, we also pray that through this experience, her faith would grow deeper, and her trust in You would become unshakable. Let her see that her success is not for her glory but for Your kingdom’s purpose. We ask all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
We encourage your niece to spend time in prayer and in the Word before her exams, perhaps meditating on Psalm 119:98-100, which reminds us that God’s commands make us wiser than our enemies and give us more understanding than our teachers. Let her also remember that her identity is not found in her academic performance but in Christ alone. Whether the results meet her expectations or not, her worth is secure in Him.
We will continue to uphold her in prayer, trusting that the Lord will do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). May she emerge from this season with a stronger testimony of God’s faithfulness and a heart full of gratitude.
