Praying For Our Students Kindergarten Through College
Day 13 of 21

Heavenly Father, we invite You to every classroom and ask for a spirit of peace, respect, and excellence to prevail in both students and teachers. We pray that students will have the desire and discipline to learn, and we ask for an environment that is conducive to learning, creativity, inquiry, and critical thinking.

We pray for the effect and impact of these powerful scriptures over our schools and ask for You to shift the atmosphere to one that reflects Your Kingdom – with righteousness, peace and joy!
We cry out to You, Lord, to guard our students from any harm: physical, mental, or spiritual.

We speak boldly against thoughts, plans, and intents to harm our children on our campuses. Protect them as they travel to and from school and during all of their classroom and extracurricular activities.

Father, we pray for our police and school security to be specially anointed to guard our schools. Give them eyes to see anything that is wrong and warn them of any plan of the enemy.

We pray for peace – by inviting the prince of peace and by making peace with the God of peace – so that there will be no shootings, no bombings, and no harassing threats against our students and our schools throughout this school year!

We pray against bullying in all forms, declaring this domineering, vindictive, mocking, and accusing evil practice and the spirit behind it be banished from our schools, in Jesus’ name!

We pray that there would be a change in the culture that feeds this maliciousness. As part of that culture change, we ask that You would make Your people shine! Let Christians be known as courageous student champions who defend victims and bring healing and peace into a situation.

We also pray that You would defend Christian students and teachers from those who would seek to bully, intimidate or silence them. We ask that You would raise many who are not ashamed of the gospel and who will exercise their rights to freedom of speech and freedom of religion with boldness and graciousness.

Raise strong and godly leadership among Christian groups and campus clubs and help them minister effectively to those around them. We pray that as the gospel advances on campuses, culture would shift to one of love, respect, joy and peace, we pray. Amen.
