Prayer For Parents At Beginning Of School Year

Father I pray for my children today as they leave for school, I pray that you will
keep them in your care. Send your Holy Spirit to open their minds to all that is true
and beautiful and good. Help them to see the gifts and talents you have given them
and to use them well. Help them to grow in knowledge and wisdom. Help them to
be kind to others and lead others to be kind to them. Give their teachers patience
and understanding and help them teach what is just and true. Send your angels to
guide and guard my children and to keep them from all harm. Open their hearts to
your presence and surround them in your peace and protection. Hold them in the
palm of your hand and bring them home safely at the end of today.
Amen


Heavenly Father, thank You for this new school year. In a sense, it's a new start for our family. May we look to You for peace to replace our apprehension. Take away those questions and give us a trust in what You are doing in our lives. I commit our family to You and understand that You will never leave us or forsake us. Grow us and increase our faith. In Your Son's name, amen.


ear Heavenly Father, School has started once again and we praise you for a fresh beginning. May our hearts remember to seek you first each day. We praise you for every individual involved in our education, and we ask for the wisdom, safety and protection only you can give. Thank you for giving us the strength to meet new milestones. May we rely on you to help us move peacefully through each routine and to master every challenge. Thank you for loving us and giving us one another. Thank you for the gift of a new school year. In Jesus' Name, Amen


God, I pray for students of all ages, who learned with finality, that they won't return to school this year.
I pray for daycare kids and preschoolers who are too young to understand why they can't see their teachers and friends. I pray for the children who miss their safe spaces to play and their loving teachers who help them learn the foundational pieces that carry them throughout their lives. I pray for the stories unread, the songs unsung, the play-scapes unconquered, and the vast number of character-plastered band-aids left undeployed. Amen


Dear God,

Today I come to you in prayer Lord, asking you to help my child(ren) experience peace this year. I pray he/she/they will not worry about things they cannot control, but that You will guard his/her/their hearts and minds and keep him/her/them trusting in You. I pray he/she/they will not only enjoy the peace of God, but peace with God. I pray he/she/they will develop a spirit of gratitude and thanksgiving as they look to You daily for their needs. Grant him/her/them Your peace in their hearts and minds in great measure. In Jesus name I/we pray, Amen.


Let this school year be their best year ever with excellent grades, favor with teachers and classmates and good behavior all covered by Your protection. Enable our children to continue growing in wisdom and stature all the days of their lives. Let Your peace and understanding envelope them at all times. Let your joy be their strength. Help them to trust You as their refuge and fortress. Guard their minds from bad counsel and peer pressure. Bless them with Your Spirit of discernment to know and do what is right at all times. Strengthen their heart and spirit to resist the devil, so that he/she will flee from them. Teach them to cast all their anxiety upon You, trusting and genuinely knowing that You care for them. Let Your light shine in their lives and cause all forms of darkness around them to flee. Make them strong and courageous in the presence of danger. Let them be assured You will never leave nor forsake them as they remain strong in You and Your mighty power. In Jesus name I/we pray, Amen.


Father God,

Thank you for being beside me,
Thank you for this new school year.
Please be there to hold my hand,
Please help me to relax and enjoy the day.
Bring new friendships into my life,
Bring new possibilities to learn and grow.
Help me to pray in my heart to you if I am anxious,
Help me to remember that you are always with me.

Amen.


Father, we praise You for who You are. We give You thanks because You created us in your own image. Also we pray for knowledge and understanding for teachers, pupils and parents. We pray that you will be with our teachers and pupils as they start a new school year. We pray that you will give pupils tenacity as they seek for understanding and new revelations in their studies. Father we also pray for parents, that they will support pupils by building a closer working relationship with teachers and staff. This we ask in Jesus Name.
