We are here to lift you up in prayer and encourage you in Biblically based in your journey. First, we want to remind you that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. So do not fear.
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, love, and self-control.
- Timothy 1:7 WEB
When you feel overwhelmed and unsure of yourself, remember that God is with you and He is faithful to complete the good work He began in you.
Trust in Yahweh with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.
- Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB
It is important to take control of your thoughts and not let the negativity expressed by others define you. Fix your thoughts on what is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things.
- Philippians 4:8 WEB
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up our fellow believer who is feeling overwhelmed and uncertain as they enter their final semester of school. We would like to declare that they are stepping into their career. We pray for peace of mind as they study and for the strength to complete their paper. We ask that You fill them with confidence in their knowledge and abilities, and that they would trust in Your faithfulness to guide them through this challenging time. Help to shut out the negative voices that surround them from their preceptors and others.
We also pray that they would fix their thoughts on what is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable, and that they would trust in Your promise to complete the good work You began in them. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, who is the author and perfecter of our faith.
We also pray for guidance from the Holy Spirit in their study. Give them wisdom and understanding to apply in their comprehensive exam and final paper.
We give You all the praise and honor for what You will do.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.
I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.
