One of the
most stressful things teenagers face is examinations. Whether it's a
regular test in class to the college n universities, students are not immune to
the anxiety-inducing exams. While there is probably no prayer that
can get you an A on an exam you don't prepare for, and probably no prayer that
can change that "B" answer to an "A" answer, you can rely
on God to help you study better and relax more when taking a test. Saying a
prayer at exam time can help you focus better on what you have learned so that
it comes out by making smarter choices on your exams.
Here is a
simple prayer you can say at exam time:
Lord, today I
am just really stressed. You know, Lord, that I am having some trouble with the
test I am about to take. I know it's probably not the biggest world problem,
with people starving, people turning away from you, people in wars, and more.
But, Lord, it's what I'm facing right now, and I need you in this time. I know
that no problem is too big or too small for you to handle, and I need to turn
this stress over to you to help me with.
Lord, I just
need to be able to focus. I need your help to look at this information so I can
remember and apply it well on my exam. I need you to help me feel more
confident going into the test and relax a bit so I can concentrate. Lord,
please help the people around me to understand that I need to focus and study.
Also, Lord,
help me when I walk into the exam. Give me the peace, when it is all said and
done, to know that I walked in and did my best. I pray, Lord, for your guiding
hand as I take the exam, and I ask for your welcome calm when I walk out of the
classroom after.
Lord, thank
you for all the blessings you have placed in my life. Thank you for being here
in this time when I feel a bit overwhelmed. Thank you for always being there
and allowing me to rely on you. Praise your name. Amen.

an Exam

feel a little strange prayingto you because of an exam.It doesn't really seem
all that significantwhen you consider the "big picture."But right
now, the test looms so largethat it is all I can see before me.
I pray to you
for three things:- the strength to handle the pressure that I feel,- the
confidence to feel securein my knowledge and preparation,- and the ability to
keep an appropriateperspective on it all.Help me to keep in mind what is really
important,even as I focus all of my time and energyon this test in the
immediate future. Amen

of Thy Kingdom.
May I offer
Thee my best in reading and learning that it may be a part of my discipleship.

to the goals I have in order to serve Thee. I offer this time and prayer in Thy
holy Name. Amen.
