A prayer for school children

It’s that time of year again;children are back to school!

I think it's important to pray over our children as they start their new school year.

Dear heavenly Father I pray that you would  be with every child that is returning back to school this year.I ask that you would bless all these little learners.Give them the strength to learn and concentrate, give wisdom as they listen to lectures and complete homework.Help them act in love towards their teachers and fellow students.Keep them safe from dangers seen and unseen and protect them on their way going to school and back home.

Be with our children’s teachers this year.  Help them to teach in ways that each student can understand.

And  Lord, help us as parents to be supportive of our children this year.

I pray in Jesus name.Amen.

 

If you make the Lord your refuge,
      if you make the Most High your shelter,
  no evil will conquer you;
      no plague will come near your home.
  For he will order his angels
      to protect you wherever you go.

Psalm 91:9-11
