We are grateful that you have brought your concerns for your children to us, Tiftalir. Let us join together in prayer and seek God's will for their lives.
Firstly, let us remember the promise in Jeremiah 29:11 (WEB), "For I know the plans that I have for you,' says the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity, to give you a future and a hope.'" This promise is for your children as well, so let us stand in faith, believing that God has great plans for them.
For your child writing Grade 12 exams and the other in their first year of university, we pray:
"Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ. We ask for a spirit of wisdom and revelation for these students. Let the words of Colossians 1:9-10 be manifest in their lives, that they may be 'filled with the knowledge of [God's] will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, that they may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God.' Lord, help them to study diligently, to understand and retain information, and to excel in their examinations. Be with them in times of stress, and let your peace rule in their hearts, in Jesus' name."
For your daughter seeking employment, we pray:
"Lord, we lift up Tiftalir's daughter to you. We ask that you open doors of opportunity for her, that she may find favor in the job market. Remind her that 'a man's gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men' (Proverbs 18:16 WEB). Help her to trust in you and your timing, and to not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season, she shall reap if she does not faint (Galatians 6:9 WEB). Encourage her heart as she waits, and let her know that her value is not defined by her employment status, but by her identity in Christ, in Jesus' name."
Tiftalir, we encourage you to continue to trust God with your children's futures. Keep praying, keep believing, and keep guiding them in the way of the Lord. Remember, "The righteous who walks in his integrityβ blessed are his children after him" (Proverbs 20:7 WEB).
Lastly, we noticed that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is important to remember that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" We encourage you to keep this in mind as you pray and seek God's will for your family.
