Prayer For Our Students Kindergarten Through College
Day 3 of 21

Father, we come to You on behalf of the broken-hearted, those young people and children who have been rejected, neglected, emotionally wounded, or physically or sexually abused.

So many young people in our schools are crushed by depression, tormented by suicidal thoughts, and facing poverty and broken homes. We bring all these before You knowing that You are close to them in a special way and that Your Father’s heart grieves for them.

We pray in particular for those who feel like outcasts – those who have been rejected by their family or friends, and those who are mocked or bullied at school.

Thank you that You will never leave them or forsake them. We ask that the comfort of the Holy Spirit would be so real to them and that You would break through the dark clouds and dispel the demonic powers that oppress them!

We pray for the thousands of teens and children suffering extreme mental anguish that drives them to intentionally harm themselves by cutting with blades, swallowing harmful substances or even burning themselves. Lord, we cry out to You for deliverance and deep healing for them.

We resist the spiritual root of rejection and self-hatred and the demonic lie that makes young people believe God is angry with them and has rejected them.

Let the orphan mentality and the belief that they are abandoned and alone in this world be dramatically changed by an encounter with someone who will love them unconditionally.

We declare this truth over them: that Your love is everlasting and that they are accepted in the Beloved. May they experience this reality and may the hearts of an entire young generation be healed as they discover You as their Father, welcoming the prodigal!

Please raise spiritual mothers and fathers who will love them, minister to them, disciple them, and help bring healing to them. In Jesus’ name.

Amen.
