8 Powerful Prayers For Good Grades

It would be impressive to get good grades without even trying! Imagine if you could just say a prayer and then get good grades. 

Unfortunately, it is not that simple. That’s because prayer isn’t magic. Prayer is simply having a conversation with God. 

And good grades are not easy to get. That’s why starting with prayer is a great idea. It can put you in the right mindset to achieve good grades.

Talk to God about your desire to have good grades. He can help bring you through, but you must believe it is possible to get good grades. And also, you have to try your best. 

When you pray for good grades, be ready to put action behind your prayer. God gave Abraham a test to sacrifice his son Isaac (Genesis 22). Abraham did not know how to pass this test, but he knew it was something he was assigned to do.   

In the end, Abraham journeyed up a mountain, bound and almost killed his only son, but God stopped him before it was too late. Abraham passed the test. He got good grades on that day because he followed the right path. 

You can get good grades, too.

You just have to make the journey like Abraham did. Follow your path. You don’t know for sure what will happen but go faithfully.  

“You see that [Abraham’s] faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did” James 2:22 (NIV). Use the prayers below to pray for good grades. Please share your thoughts in the comment section.

You might encourage someone else that is also working to get good grades.
