Getting Ready for the 5th Go-Round

Published

Specializes in None.

Hello to all,

I'm not gonna write a long, drawn out story. What I am going to say is that I'm going in for the NCLEX-RN for the 5th time. I can honestly say, that this is the most serious that I have taken my studying and study habits. I have been reading the posts..people passing with 75...265...not passing. All i can say is that God is in control. If you are dealing with anxiety and pressures, give it to God. He is the author and finisher of our faith. I have come to realize that everything happens for a reason. Some of us could've been in a season where we couldn't be trusted with a RN License..God blocks certain things and then he allows them. I'm a living testimony!!!:redbeathe:redbeathe:redbeathe

Sometimes I read these posts and I get nervous...I say "OMG!!! I don't know that...or I didn't study that...I hope that doesn't happen to me...I hope that does happen to me!!" Then anxiety and fear TRIES to come in, but the devil is a liar!! Let me tell you GOD IS IN CONTROL!! You have to trust HIM!! The bible says to "study to show yourself approved". If you've done all that God has asked you to do and you have obeyed his word, he can't help but give you the desires of your heart.

With that being said, I am again going in for the 5th time to take the RN NCLEX. Five is the number of grace and I believe that God will grant me grace, favor and mercy. I am studying, doing sooooo many questions. I wish I had access to Kaplan, but that's not in the budget at this time, so I'm working from Saunders, Feuer review and NCLEX 4000. I pray before and after studying. I'm a prayer warrior and I believe in the power of prayer!! I haven't set a date, but I know it will be within the next 3 weeks!! I'm waiting on GOD to deliver the date to me. I will continue to lift up this website and the people who are determined to give back to those in need as RN's. We all will be RN's. I believe it and receive it!! God Bless!!

Sorry...it was a bit lengthy!!;)

girl you must be my twin sister! lol i will be taking the nclex for the 5th time i believe that God will make a way. I am in tears right now typing this message because i thought i was losing my mind yesterday. I was so tried and got nervous about taking the test again....which was the trick of the enemy because i have been studying and feeling confident for the past two months and yesterday i felt so down and cry my self out. i thought about what the bible says "God has not given us the spirit of fear", he has given us the spirit of love, spirit of power and sound mine". I know that we can do it! i feel so good right to know that its people that believe in what god can do. My test is coming up on august 5 and i am just keeping positive and readying my word and practicing questions. we can do this girl! you are definitely in my prayers.

Thanks pkid!! I was just reading that scripture yesterday!! WoW!! I also know that he is able to "exceedingly, abundantly above all we can ask or think!!" I'm testing on august 11th. I know the feeling of breaking down and having fits and wanting to give up. But we can't!! We must put on the whole armour of God. We must go into battle prepared!! We "study to show ourselves approved" and the Holy Spirit will lead and guide us to do the rest. I'll definitley keep you lifted in prayer!!
