Prayer for a Student Who Failed an Exam

For students crushed by a bad grade and afraid of what comes next.

“For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.”

Proverbs 24:16 (KJV)

Lord, I failed an exam and I feel terrible. I am disappointed in myself and worried about what my parents, teachers and friends will think.

Remind me that one grade does not define me. I am still loved by You.

Help me look honestly at what went wrong and learn from it. Give me better study habits, help from teachers and the motivation to try again.

For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again. Help me rise up again.

Give me peace tonight and courage tomorrow. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Short prayer to remember

Help me rise again, Lord. One grade does not define me. Amen.
