PRAYER FOR SUCCESS IN THE EXAMINATION

Bible Reading: Daniel 1:6-21

“6 Now among these were of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:

7 Unto whom the prince of the eunuchs gave names: for he gave unto Daniel the name of Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abed-nego.

8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore, he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.

9 Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs.

10 And the prince of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed your meat and your drink: for why should he see your faces worse liking than the children which are of your sort? then shall ye make me endanger my head to the king.

11 Then said Daniel to Melzar, whom the prince of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,

12 Prove thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us pulse to eat, and water to drink.

13 Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the countenance of the children that eat of the portion of the king’s meat: and as thou seest, deal with thy servants.

14 So he consented to them in this matter, and proved them ten days.

15 And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the king’s meat.

16 Thus Melzar took away the portion of their meat, and the wine that they should drink; and gave them pulse.

17 As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.

18 Now at the end of the days that the king had said he should bring them in, then the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.

19 And the king communed with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore, stood they before the king.

20 And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm.

21 And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.” Daniel 1:6-21

One of the great challenges that confront students is a failure in examination. Many students are a failure in the school not because they are not read their books, or attend classes or no good teacher or lecturers but because of no spiritual backup from God.

There is no way a student can be successful without the backup of God. Why? Because “A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.” John 3:27

Being a student, you can only receive what it is given to you or approve by God in heaven. Your success in examination is not only base on your physical responsibility, but also spiritual responsibility. Your success needs approval from heaven.

It was also said in the Scriptures that, “He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.” John 3:31

Can you see the fact of life? Anything that comes from heaven is above all. The wisdom, knowledge and understanding you receive from heaven [from Jesus Christ] are above other wisdom, knowledge or understanding from earthly people. This shows that you have to back up your studies with the power of prayer. You need to mix your studies with the wisdom of God, knowledge from above and divine understanding.

“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” John 14:26

The greatest promises of God for you as a child of God is to possess the Holy Spirit, and He will teach you all things and brings all things you have studies to your remembrance. If you are a kind of student that usually forget what he learns, possess of the Holy Spirit is the solution.

Remember, Daniel and his friends, they were found ten times better than other students that contested for the exam during their studies, because of the Spirit of God in them. “As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.”

Dear reader, that is the work of the Holy Spirit. You cannot be a failure in life if you possess the Holy Spirit. You don’t need any strange powers like charms or rings from any herbalist or fake prophet for you to pass your exams. Join the evil association or be in a cult is not the key to your success in the exams.

“And the king communed with them; and among them, all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore, stood they before the king. And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm.” Daniel 1:19-20

I could remember in the 70s and 80s even till early 90s, when organisation or government in Nigeria are looking to employ people, they have to go to Christ Apostolic Church by then, looking for graduated students. Because they believe that, they are children of God that have potentials that others do not have, and faithful in their works. But today the story has changed. Why? Because we are in a generation where scam, fraud, unfaithfulness, and lack of wisdom and knowledge is the order of the day. Most so-called Christians of today are spiritually lazy. They cannot pray and even most are expecting cheap work. What a pity!
