Prayer for Nursing Students

Hi Guys!
In this video, I just really wanted to talk to you about the importance of being intentional in protecting your spirit and remaining calm and peaceful even during the most stressful times of your nursing program or studying for the NCLEX. Please do NOT give up!!!

Here are some bible verses as reminders that you may find to be helpful:

**Overcoming Fear**
2 Timothy 1:7 (NASB)
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

1 John 4:18 (NASB) There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.

1 Peter 3:13-14 (NASB)
Who is there to harm you if you prove zealous for what is good? 14 But even if you should suffer for the sake of righteousness, you are blessed. And do not fear their intimidation, and do not be troubled.
1 Peter 5:7
"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."


**Overcoming Jealousy**
1 Corinthians 10:13
No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

1 Corinthians 13:4
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

Ecclesiastes 4:4
And I saw that all toil and all achievement spring from one person’s envy of another. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.


**Overcoming Adversity**
2 Corinthians 4:8-9
We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed

Proverbs 3:4-6
Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Philippians 4:12-13 (This is the verse that literally got me through my nursing program when I was getting my PN license)
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.
I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

**Wanting Peace**

Psalm 29:11
"The Lord gives strength to his people, and the Lord blesses his people with peace."

Romans 12:18
"If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone."

"The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you."

Isaiah 26:12
"Lord, you establish peace for us; all that we have accomplished, you have done for us."


**Strength to endure**
Isaiah 41:10
So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Isaiah 40:31
But those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint

2 Timothy 1:7
For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.

Ephesians 3:20-21
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
