Beloved children of God in Christ. I greet and bless you all in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The Bible says in Proverbs 21:31, “The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the LORD.”
As this is the month of March, many of your children have written their exams and are now waiting for their results. During this waiting period, encourage your children to spend time in prayer in the presence of the Lord for good results. Let them pray and prepare themselves to receive the victory in Jesus’ name.
If you are the person who has yet to write your exams or are preparing for an interview, preparation is very important. Even, it is also essential to prepare well before engaging in Lord’s ministry. Without proper preparation, achieving victory is very difficult and may lead to utter failure. So, for the children who are writing or about to write their exams, through today’s promise word, the Lord is saying, “Prepare well.” How much time is left for the exam—1, 2, or 3 days? Prepare well, study, pray, and go for the exam with confidence, and surely, the Lord will grant you victory.
In the Bible, there are many names of our God, one of which is “Jehovah Nissi”, meaning The God of Victory. If you desire victory for your prayer requests, then you need to prepare yourself to receive it from the Lord. How can you prepare yourself? Go to an isolated place, prepare your mind, and get ready to speak to the Lord. Then, pray to Him, saying: “Lord, I come into Your presence with unworthiness. If I hold a grudge against someone, please forgive me and that person, and restore peace between us. Forgive my sins, anoint me, and make me worthy.” As you pray and prepare yourself before the Lord in this manner, you will surely see victory for your prayers.
Even today, you may have faced failure in your business, ministry, or studies. If a lack of preparation is the reason for it, acknowledge your mistake and ask the Lord for forgiveness. If a past interview did not result in a job due to insufficient preparation, seek the Lord’s forgiveness for that as well. The next time, as you prepare and go for an interview, surely, the Lord will perform a miracle.
Testimony from Sister K. Subith Raabi, Kanyakumari
“My younger son had completed his BE final exams and was waiting for the results. He was anxious about the outcome. During that time, as a family, we were listening to a sermon shared by Brother Stephen on Angel TV. During the sermon, the Lord revealed an auspicious word through Brother Stephen, and it felt as though he was looking directly at me and speaking. I claimed that word in faith and prayed. When the results were announced, by the grace of God and through the prophetic prayers offered by Brother Stephen, my son passed with good marks. May God be glorified!”
Prayer:
“Loving Lord, we thank You. Just as a horse must be prepared for battle to win, You have taught us to prepare before doing anything. Help us to work hard, make efforts, and pray so that we may succeed. If anyone who is reading this has faced failures in the past due to a lack of preparation, guide them to prepare well from now on. Let them seek Your presence in prayer before starting anything and receive victory. I pray for those who have written public exams and government job exams—bless their efforts and open doors for a stable income. Help them succeed with good marks and fulfil their heart’s desires. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
