Philippians 3:13-14: But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
Examinations are supposed to be the ultimate test of character and intelligence after your training period. It measures our level of knowledge and gives an indication of progress and readiness to move on to new challenges.
As Christians, exams should excite us because it represents the final door to get through to experience your next level of perfection. God wants us to progress in excellence and distinction. He has already given us everything we need to succeed.
We have to understand that God has already prepared our place of success in our future. The script of your life has already been written. Our jobs are to play the roles and have faith in our Lord that He has already won the battle for us and we need not fret or be afraid.
Prayers for exams are meant to ask the father for his favor, protection, and strength through them. We ask him to remove all doubts and fears from our hearts ahead of the exams.
The evil one sometimes paralyzes us with fear and self-doubt during exams just to retard our progress and keep us from our ultimate goals in life.
Some people have fallen victim to this and have given up on themselves because they are too afraid to fail again. The Lord wants to tell you today that your latter glories will be bigger than your former one and your success lies ahead. Ask him for the strength to get over any obstacle so you can move into your new life of glory.

Examinations can get people stressed out, but always remember that God is by your side and he wants you to do well. Have faith in him and prepare yourself for the exam. Ask him to be your teacher and your companion. Go into the exam hall with confidence, focus, bravery, and faith. Know in your heart that he will not forsake or neglect you. Be convinced inside you that he will see you through.
2 Corinthians 4:7-11: But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard-pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body.
