We are grateful to join you in thanking our Heavenly Father for His abundant blessings and for the gift of your children. It is wonderful to see your heart for their well-being and success as they embark on a new school year. We will lift them up in prayer, seeking God's protection, guidance, and favor upon their lives.
Let us remember the words of Proverbs 22:6, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." We are confident that as you commit your children to the Lord, He will watch over them and guide their steps.
We also recall the promise in Isaiah 54:13, "All your children will be taught by Yahweh, and your children’s peace will be great." Let us claim this promise for your children, that they will experience the peace and understanding that comes from the Lord.
Let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the precious gift of these children. We commit them into Your loving hands as they begin this new school year. Lord, we ask that You surround them with Your divine protection, guarding them from any hurt, harm, or danger, both seen and unseen. Protect them from the snares of bullying and deceit, and help them to be a light to their peers, showing kindness and truth in all their interactions.
We pray that You would place godly teachers and friends in their lives, individuals who will encourage and support them in their academic journey. Grant them the ability to focus on their studies and to excel in all they do. We ask that You calm their spirits and bind up any spirits of anxiety, depression, or distraction that may hinder their learning and growth.
Father, we cover them with the precious blood of Jesus, from the crown of their heads to the soles of their feet. We ask that You be a fence around them, keeping them safe at all times. We pray that they would remain on and above grade level, experiencing uncommon favor and understanding in their studies.
Lord, we ask that this school year would be the best they have ever had, filled with joy, peace, and success. We thank You for Your faithfulness and love, and we trust that You will guide and protect them every step of the way.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to continue to trust in the Lord and to teach your children to do the same. As they grow in their faith and relationship with Jesus, they will experience His peace and guidance in every aspect of their lives. May this school year be a testament to God's goodness and love for your family.
"‘Our Father in Heaven, May Your Name be kept Holy.
