If you’re stressing over an upcoming examination, Enrico Pavia’s story might be the encouragement that you need.
Exams can be really intimidating and scary, especially when you have other responsibilities to fulfill.
In 2019, Enrico was the father of a 3-month-old baby who was battling severe pneumonia. He prayed hard for the healing even when it seemed impossible.
God heard Enrico’s cry for help. His son was healed, and his good health was restored.
So, in 2020, when CBN Asia aired Suklob—a Holy Week special featuring Nett Gochuico’s story of healing, Enrico felt encouraged. He could relate that God truly hears prayers even when it seems impossible.
“God used Tanikala to strengthen my faith to believe in God’s power and goodness,” Enrico recalled, who then searched for the Facebook page of CBN Asia.
He found out that CBN Asia has a Prayer Center that can help him pray for his concerns and give him biblical advice. One of the challenges that Enrico faced at that time was the board exam he was about to take as a mechanical engineer.
Being a father is already a full-time commitment, it barely gives Enrico extra time for himself. Imagine trying to make time to review for an exam that will define how he will sustain his family financially.
This was a lot of pressure for Enrico; he dreamed about failing every night. Negative thoughts kept him awake. So, he decided to postpone taking the exam.
But he still wanted to earn more for his family, so he faced the anxiety, stress, and time-management struggles of taking the exam once again.
Through the support of the Prayer Center and the assurance of God’s promises, Enrico found the courage to take the exam.
“After I received the words of encouragement from the Prayer Center, I believed that nothing is impossible with God. He gives us the knowledge that we need,” said Enrico.
Finally, when the results were announced, Enrico became a testimony of God’s faithfulness. He passed the exam and treated this as one of his greatest treasures from God.
Today, Enrico works as an equipment engineer.
His journey shows how faith and prayer can help us overcome challenges. His story reminds us that with faith, anything is possible. Just as Psalm 34:17-18 says, “The Lord hears the cries of the righteous and delivers them from trouble. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
