Prayer makes such a difference in the life of a school. As parents, we have the honor to cover our children, teachers, and school in prayer. Some may say schools need our prayers now more than ever, but we can rest knowing that though times continue to change, our prayers always go to an unchanging God! I’m thrilled to share these simple short morning prayers for school!
Short Morning Prayer For School
In the hustle and bustle of life and a new school year, prayer may seem daunting.
It doesn’t have to be! A short morning prayer for school can make a lasting impact.
Recently, I came across the approach of three-word prayers. Have you heard of this before?
I thought it was brilliant and an awesome way to follow 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
I used to think if I didn’t have a dedicated large amount of time set aside each morning for prayer then I was letting my family down. I allowed the devil to convince me my prayers weren’t “enough” if they weren’t what I considered worthwhile, or long-enough, or ____ (fill in the blank).
But you know what? Prayer is prayer, and our God hears all of it. Whether we express it with words from our lips or our heart, He knows. A simple short prayer of “Help!” is just as powerful as a prayer going into detail over what help you’re asking for.
All prayers – short and long – go to a powerful God that is not swayed by the length of our prayers. Though maybe considered a simple morning prayer for school from our perspective, know that it always goes to a powerful God!
Enter: Short Morning Prayer For School.
Prayers for School
Whether it’s a short back to school prayer or daily prayers for school, there is not a single more powerful endeavor than praying prayers for school, our students, and our teachers.
When we come before God and pray for school or our students and teachers, we’re submitting ourselves to His sovereignty and authority. Praying helps us recognize who God is and it brings us comfort knowing we can rest in His control.
I discover while praying prayers for school that my frazzled and worried mind is able to surrender to God my fears and concerns. He can watch over my children, the teachers, and school in a way that I am literally unable to do so. Trust is built as I come before Him and pray these morning prayers for school.
How do I pray for my child’s school?
So, how do you pray for your child’s school and use a short moring prayer for school each day?
It’s simple. You can pray these prayers as your child is getting ready for school, having breakfast, waiting for the bus, on the drive to school, as you approach school, while they’re getting out of the car, and as you drive away.
What I’ve come to realize is these short prayers for students and teachers turn into prayers throughout the day! Consider for a moment the beauty of continual prayer! When we seek to be in constant communion with God, there is no safer place to be!
Here are many short morning prayers for school you can use.
