August 18, 2022 at 10:25 amFor many Christians, the prevalence of inappropriate materials in school libraries, threats to female athletic programs, and the indoctrination of our children as it relates to gender identity and critical race theory, are only a few of the red flags on our minds as we begin another school year. Meanwhile, in the wake of the tragic Uvalde shooting just a few months ago, all people (Christian or not) remain concerned about the safety of their students and faculty at school. Our children spend an average of 1,195.2 hours per year in instruction and influence in public schools. It is vital that parents get involved in their children’s education to pursue traditional values within schools and protect children from all evils present. Considering these unprecedented threats to our children’s welfare, along with America’s general moral decline pervading our classrooms, it’s critical that we exercise our God-given authority in prayer to defend our schools and the children and staff within them. The state of our education system today may look hopeless, but we serve a big God. This is an opportunity to engage our faith as intercessors. Prayer is our fiercest weapon. God’s power is released when we unite as believers in Christ. In Matthew 18:18-20, Jesus reinforced the power of prayer when he said, “Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again, I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”

August 18, 2022 at 2:30 pmI pray for all of our children in school. May they be safe and protected from all evil influences. Lord, please protect them from physical, mental, emotional and spiritual harm. Expand their minds so they understand everyone is different and everyone has good in them also. Send the Holy Spirit to shine your light through those who love you and live by your word. May they lead their peers into a life of loving you and serving you. Please give strength to your children when they are struggling, hurting or bullied. Lord, guide all teachers and administrators to enlighten the minds of our children, to accept all children, respect all children and provide the wisdom they need to reach all children. We pray this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
