For Students Traveling Back to School

Loving Lord,
As students make their way back to school over the next several weeks, we pray for their safety. Send your guardian angels to protect them from harm. Let their vehicles be reliable and free them from concerns about car trouble. Keep drivers alert and focused. Allow for smooth and on-time flight departures and arrivals. Direct their luggage to arrive at its correct destination with them. Grant them favorable weather. Provide any necessary assistance along the way through helpful people you place in their path. Watch over them, and remind nervous parents that no one loves their child(red) more than you do. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

For Those Graduating

God of Wisdom,
Bless the many graduates who are closing out another chapter of their education. Whether they are entering high school, college, pursuing additional degrees, or joining the workforce, may their last level of learning serve them well in the next phase of life. Thank you for the dedication and hard work they put into their studies. Thank you for all of the wise and patient professors, teachers, counselors, and parents who poured into them. Thank you for what you have in store for them in the future. As this stage of their learning gives way to the next, ensure that they never graduate from learning and growing in faith, the most important education there is. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. 

DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

To Appreciate Those Who Teach

Dear Lord,
While teachers are certainly worthy of recognition for much longer than just one week of the year, we thank you for the opportunity this week to show our love and support to educators. While the role they play is one of the most essential, it is also one of the most under-appreciated. We have all had memorable teachers over the years who have been instrumental not only in equipping us for life, but also in guiding and directing us along the paths we’ve traveled in life. Bless their labor with patience and a gentle spirit, especially as they instruct students coming from broken homes and dealing with challenging family lives. On top of that, rather than serving as supportive partners, overbearing parents can often make an already draining job even more difficult for teachers. Therefore, Lord, generously provide the resources teachers need to carry out their work well, encourage them daily, surround them with plenty of colleagues and coworkers to cheer them on, and let them feel loved and appreciated for all that they do, not just this week, but always.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
