I feel defeated and disappointed in myself. I have to take an exam for field of work and I continue falling the exam. I’ve studied and was confident in my ability to pass the time but I didn’t. I’m tired of falling and paying for the exam. I just need help with getting out of the negative mindset and working on passing the test the next time but I need guidance on how to prepare for it so I’m not wasting anymore money and time. I feel inept and unworthy to even pursue this anymore. I really need this credential for my job.
Thank you for sharing this request.
I know how difficult it must be to study for an exam when you are already in the workforce with a busy schedule. It’s so hard to set aside sufficient time to study and soak in the information. Praying you would be able to carve out the needed time from your schedule and also that you would be encouraged that your value is not tied to your job, a test score, or any credential, but is instead found in God who created you for a purpose and is pleased he created you, regardless of this test.
Hoping that encourages you to keep going and keep studying. More practically, I wonder if it would help to find a study group, maybe even online? Just a thought!
Here is another prayer for you today. 
This is a stressful season, and I’m overwhelmed by the mountain of work ahead of me, yet I trust in you. I know that when I put my faith in you, even when it’s as small as a mustard seed (Luke 17:6), miracles can be accomplished. I pray that as I study in these coming weeks, as I soak up knowledge and memorize facts, as I read and process and write, that you would be renewing my mind and strengthening my spirit. Help me to persevere through the massive to-do lists and the busy schedules, and help me to keep my eyes fixed on you throughout it all.
As I enter my classrooms and exam rooms, I pray you would blanket me in your peace. Ease any anxieties, calm my restless mind, and give me focus on the task at hand. I pray that I would know my worth is in you alone, not in any grade I do or do not make, not in any assignment or test or teacher’s opinion. I pray that I would fear your presence during my exams, and that I would be comforted by your nearness.
Thank you for the gift of this education, Jesus. I pray that these final exams would be a celebration of all I have learned in this season, and that I would be grateful for all that I have experienced and for all the ways I have grown.
May you be glorified, Lord.
Amen.
