� Today We're Praying for Wisdom Over Those Who Shape Education
The future of our children is influenced not only by what happens at home and in the classroom, but also by the decisions made by leaders, policymakers, and those entrusted with shaping educational systems.
Today, we are lifting up government leaders, school boards, education ministries, policymakers, and decision-makers before the Lord. We are asking God to grant them wisdom, integrity, and discernment as they make decisions that impact children, families, educators, and schools.
Today, we are praying:
� For wisdom, integrity, and discernment for government leaders and educational decision-makers
� That policies affecting children, families, schools, and educators will promote learning, safety, and the well-being of every child
� For school boards, education ministries, and administrators to make decisions with fairness, compassion, and wisdom
� That schools will be adequately resourced to provide safe and effective learning environments
� For God's protection over our children and the educational systems that serve them
� That God would raise up leaders who value truth, justice, wisdom, and the flourishing of children and families
Today, we declare that God is sovereign over every nation and every educational system. We pray that His wisdom will guide those entrusted with leadership, and that decisions made today will create environments where children can grow, learn, and thrive.
� Today's Scripture
"The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord; He directs it like a watercourse wherever He pleases."
Proverbs 21:1
