DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

For Those Training Future Pastors and Teachers

Dear Jesus,
Thank you for the educational institutions responsible for training current and future generations of called workers. You have blessed so many congregations and classrooms with those who have been trained in our academically challenging and doctrinally faithful ministerial education schools. Provide the continued financial support and resources to allow these institutions to function and serve for many generations to come. 

Thank you also for the professors and teachers devoted to training and equipping future pastors and teachers. Reward them for their faithful work and bless them by allowing them to see the fruit of their labor as those who once sat in their classrooms end up teaching in classrooms and preaching from pulpits of their own. Establish solid and supportive relationships between colleagues, accompanied by the joint desire to grow spiritually and professionally in their ministry. Lead their students to respect them and be eager to learn from them both academically and through their personal ministry experience. Fulfill them in their callings and make them aware of the difference they are making not only in the lives of their students, but also in your kingdom.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. 

DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

For Christian Teachers

Lord of the Church,
Thank you for providing faithful teachers and professors in our Christian schools. Whether at the elementary, high school, or college level, their role in educating the next generation is pivotal. They don’t merely pass along information, but teach students to think critically and to utilize their wonderfully created minds to discover and understand the universe, the world, and all that is in it.

Additionally – and most importantly – they do all of this while not only modeling their love for Jesus, but also connecting your Word and their faith to everything they learn. Use teachers to strengthen the faith of their students, while challenging them and equipping them to be model citizens who also let the light of their faith shine brightly. As teachers incorporate law and gospel into their lessons and teaching, build up the body of Christ. Bless their classrooms and their ministry, so that they see the fruit of their labors and are encouraged and uplifted by it. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
