Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Agstaff's son who is facing a significant test that will determine his progression to middle school. Lord, we ask that You grant him peace and calmness in his heart and mind. Your Word tells us in Philippians 4:6-7, "Be careful for nothing; but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." We pray that this peace will envelop him as he prepares and takes this test.
Father, we ask that You help him to remember the steps and lessons he has been taught, and to believe in himself as You believe in him. Strengthen his confidence and remove any doubts that may cloud his mind. Remind him that he is fearfully and wonderfully made, as stated in Psalm 139:14, and that You have a plan for his life, plans to prosper him and not to harm him, plans to give him hope and a future .
Lord, we also pray for Agstaff and the family, that they may continue to support and encourage him with love and faith. May they find comfort in knowing that no matter the outcome, Your love and grace will guide them through. Let them trust in Your timing and Your will, knowing that if his star is not shining as brightly this year, it will surely shine in Your perfect time.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
