I believe every one is busy preparing for exams, some are probably mugging your heads off for prelims... ...
Here is one prayer that helped me as I was preparing for my O's and have lost for words due to stress. I hope this helps you!
Loving Godbe with me now,as I prepare for my exams.Thank you for the many talents and gifts you havegiven me and for the opportunity of education.Calm my nerves and anxiety, help meto remember all that I have studied,to express it clearly and to answer the questionsthe very best that I can.Holy Spirit, sit with me in my exam- and always.In Jesus' nameAmen
“He said to them, ‘This is what the LORD commanded: “Tomorrow is to be a day of sabbath rest, a holy sabbath to the LORD. So bake what you want to bake and boil what you want to boil. Save whatever is left and keep it until morning.”‘” Exodus 16:23 (NIV)
Preparing to go on vacation takes a lot of work. By the time I finish all the laundry, clean the house and get completely caught up at work before I can enjoy a break, I’m exhausted.
This year, my family vacation came two days after a huge deadline at work. By the time I locked the front door and turned towards the car, mental and physical fatigue overwhelmed me.
Once we arrived at our destination, I could have cried with relief. The months of planning and weeks of hectic last-minute preparation were worth it. After a few days of complete rest, I felt recharged and ready to go.
Although this pattern of planning before rest is common to holidays and vacations, it wasn’t until recently I applied it to honoring the Sabbath. Every week I’m faced with the opportunity to rest. Actually it’s more than an opportunity, it’s a commandment from the Lord. But instead of planning for it to happen, I usually slip into a day of work.
For some reason, I expect a day of rest to happen with no effort. But it doesn’t. The truth is I need to rethink how I approach God’s commandment to rest. It requires intention for it to happen, or I’ll just use it as a catch-up day.
For years God has been gently convicting me of dis-honoring His day. Although I know it’s one of the Ten Commandments, I’ve prioritized work over obedience too many times.
I’ve even tried to redefine work and call it rest, as if that could fool God. The truth is, I’ve created a seven-day workweek, and neglected to plan for rest.
It’s easy to find excuses not to rest: I’m a mom of five children, my work is ministry-related, or it’s just a few e-mails. Those excuses sound weak to my ears when weighed against God’s request to obey Him in something that’s pleasurable and for my own good.
The Sabbath is a gift from a loving heavenly Father to His children. It is a day to breathe a sigh of relief, and rest from our labors. It is a day to soak in the companionship of those we love. My spirit, mind and body long for rest. To reject this healing gift hurts me and those I love. It also sets me in direct disobedience to God.
Given my tendency towards work, I have to plan for a day of Sabbath rest to happen. It will take me spreading housework throughout the week, finishing the laundry a day early and preparing meals in advance. It will take a weekly plan. But when I make the Sabbath a priority, I’m obeying one of God’s caring commandments and teaching my children to do the same.
And when my thirsty soul tastes the refreshment of rest, I realize why God asks me to honor His day.
Dear Lord, forgive me for the times I have made excuses and dishonored Your Sabbath. I know You gave me this day as a gift, and I have often rejected it in favor of my own way. Help me to plan the rest of the week wisely so that I’m prepared for a day of rest. Thank You for forgiving me and giving me another chance to obey You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

40-DAY 2011
July 1 - August 9
Our theme is The Eleventh Hour.
This was chosen last year.
Then came the Arab uprisings, the earthquakes and tsunami!
These and other stunning events of 2011 all point to the urgency of the hour.
The whole earth is groaning.
Our redemption draws near.
It is the last hour! 1 John 2:18
This 40-Day season, we turn to the Parables of Jesus.
This is about as close as you can get to the mind and heart of Christ.
The stories He told speak to our times just as they did His own.
They not only comfort and console.
They also convict and confront.
Rightly read, they bring us to our knees.
Parables are pray-ables.
