Join me in praying for schools, students, teachers and school staff as our local schools start today. Sunday we had a special prayer time for each of those. God has blessed us and is preparing our children for an awesome and strong future.
Matthew 19:13 NASB
Then some children were brought to Him so that He would lay His hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them.
Do everything in your power to be a blessing. God gave us the desire and ability to do just that, and one place we can start and be strong is through prayer. Another is to confess and claim truth over each person.
First, PRAY.
Pray for students and this year. It is a new year full of all kinds of questions due to covid, be virtual last year and so many other things. Pray for school administrators and workers who are tasked with making things work well, and there is so much for them to do. Pray for teachers and the frontline workers challenging, encouraging and sharing with each student. My wife is one of those, and I have seen all it takes in her. I am fan of these heroes… pray for them.
Second, CONFESS and CLAIM truth over these students.
I shared some declarations with our church yesterday that make a lot of sense to me. Join me not only in praying, but declare each of these as you pray and as you speak to those in our schools.
2021-2022 is going to be their year, a year full of limitless faith and unmatched expectation!
My kids have the mind of Christ! They are smart, obedient and excel in everything they do.
They are free from fear because God has not given them a spirit of fear.
My kids can and will overcome challenges. They can do new and hard things!
Those are awesome declarations. God will see them through.
I am committed to pray for our schools and to let them know that God is working and with each. Join me today in sharing these declarations and in praying.
