We are sharing a series of blogs focused specifically on praying over the new school year. For the next 10 days we will be praying over parents, teachers, administrators, support staff and students. Please share your prayer in the comments or join us on Facebook to post your prayer there!
Heavenly Father,
We praise your name above all names. We give you thanks for your never-ending love.
Without you, we have nothing.
With you, we have more than we could ever ask or imagine.
Thank you for your eternal grace and perfect love.
You showed us this grace and love in the death, burial, and resurrection of your son, Jesus Christ.
You equipped us to show grace and love to others with the gift of your Holy Spirit.
Today we lift up to you support staff in our schools We thank you for each one and are so grateful for all they do behind the scenes.
Remind them of the key role they play in the lives of students. Help them be a light in a dark world. Give them the energy to face daily challenges. And give them rest before they return each day.
Lord, remind them daily the need to be walking in relationship with you. Draw them into fellowship with other believers. Place other Christian brothers and sisters in their lives that would hold them accountable and spur them on to love and good deeds. May they seek wisdom by spending time in your word daily. May their faith grow by putting your words into action. May they be encouraged as they place their hope in you.
1 Corinthians 15:58 says…
“Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
So, we pray that every support staff would stand firm. That nothing would move them. And that they would know that their labor in the Lord is not in vain.
