Daily Prayer - October 12, 2024

Father God, we ask today that You would pour out Your Spirit over all educational leaders at the State and Federal level, from the Secretary of Education in Washington to every support staff member in every state across our country.

Again we ask that You would place in each position those individuals that need to be there and that will work to promote the flourishing of our children according to Your definition, LORD.

Purify the hearts and motives of those in these positions, that they would genuinely seek Your idea of best for our students across the nation at every level and would work passionately and tirelessly to see the best achieved.

Give them courage and perseverance to overcome obstacles they encounter.

Give them divine wisdom to be able to troubleshoot problems as they arise. Provide divine insight and guidance from Your Holy Spirit so that they may plan well and appropriately for the future to ensure that all students have access to the education they need most at any given time.

Bless such leaders with Your Presence, watching over them to protect them and their families from distraction and deception, guiding them with Your gentle hand into the right and best paths.

Empower them to be the leaders and shepherds they need to be for our children. And may all they do work be brought together for the good of the students of America.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
