Every Christian educator is intentionally assigned to their school by divine purpose. You serve as a warrior on a mission from God. Your presence in the school building daily prevents countless unfortunate events and moments of tension from occurring. Through prayerful intervention, you guard the school environment, staff, and students from unseen spiritual adversaries. Your prayers shield the hearts in the administration and the minds in the classrooms. As educators, we stand at the core of a spiritual battlefield transcending physical sight. Take courage and banish fear. Equip yourself with the complete armor of God, drawing strength from the Lord and His mighty power (Ephesians 6:10-18). The Lord has lovingly planted a passion for prayer for schools in your heart, transforming you into a genuine PRAYER WARRIOR!

Prayer Of Adoration
You are the God who sees, and you are God with us. We praise you and thank you for who you are. Thank you, Lord, for the mercies you have given us. Lord, we approach you humbly as we forgive all those who have wrongfully crossed our paths. Lord, we approach you. Let us tell of the Lord’s greatness. Let us exalt his name together, for the Lord God is our son and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right. Great is the Lord. He is most worthy of praise.
No one can measure his greatness. All we have to do is look around to see your greatness displayed, God. Father God, we take this time to relax from the efforts of our teaching obligations to acknowledge your amazing goodness. The faithful love of the Lord never ends. Your compassion toward us never ceases. The sunrise reminds us of your forgiveness that begins fresh every morning. We admire how great you are as we enjoy all that you have created. Power, O God, belongs to you.
The disciples were amazed with Jesus speaking, peace to the storm, wondering what kind of man is this who could calm a raging storm. We adore you because you are the only one powerful enough to quiet the storms in our lives, in the lives of our students, and in the environments of our school buildings. Thank you for the Holy Spirit who provides power within us as we carry out our teaching lessons doing the assignment that you have called us to do, Lord. We will never forget where our source of teaching energy comes from. You deserve all the glory, honor, and praise we can offer.
Forgive us for any prideful thoughts that would bring glory upon ourselves. Dear Lord, we bow before you in reverence. You have dominion over everything in the heavens and on earth, yet you still care about even the smallest details of our lives. You know the number of hairs on our heads, and you are always thinking of us. That’s why we rejoice in you every day. You are worthy. We praise you because you are trustworthy and true. You are our teacher and your understanding and wisdom are beyond our human minds yet you promise wisdom to us, which we ask for daily. All praise to you, Lord. God, we praise you for counsel and instruction. In the matchless and mighty name of Jesus, we give you this praise, amen.
Dear Lord, we bow before you in reverence. You have dominion over everything in the heavens and on earth, yet You still care about even the smallest tales of our lives. Share on XPrayer Of Confession
Prayer of Confession. Be gracious to us, God, according to your faithfulness, according to the greatness of your compassion, wipe out our wrongdoings, wash us thoroughly from our guilt, and cleanse us from our sin. For we know our wrongdoings and our sin is constantly before us. Against you, you only we have sin and done what is evil in your sight so that you are justified when you speak and blameless when you judge. Behold, we were brought forth in guilt and in sin our mothers conceived us.
Behold, you desire truth in the innermost being and in secret you will make wisdom known to us. Purify us with hyssop and we will be clean. Cleanse us and we will be whiter than snow. Let us hear joy and gladness. Let the bones you have broken rejoice. Hide your face from our sins and wipe out all our guilty deeds, create in us a clean heart God, and renew a steadfast spirit within us. Do not cast us away from your presence and do not take your Holy Spirit from us. Restore to us the joy of your salvation and sustain us with a willing spirit then we will teach wrongdoers your ways and sinners will be converted to you.
Save us from the guilt of bloodshed God, the God of our salvation. Our tongues will joyfully sing of your righteousness. Lord, open our lips so that our mouths may declare your praise. For you do not delight in sacrifice, otherwise we would give it. You do not take pleasure in burnt offerings. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heart, God, you will not despise. We pray in the precious name of your son Jesus. Amen.
