PRAYER FOCUS EDUCATION MOUNTAIN

This week’s prayer focus is Education. If there’s anything that this shut-down has revealed, it’s that we NEED God back in our school systems. It’s critical that Righteousness & Truth return to this arena. For Godly men and women to receive timely promotions so they can be HIS VOICE and help write Kingdom based curriculums. Our children need to be taught the Word of Truth, not someone else’s truth.

As evidenced by what is going on in our nation, we need a cultural shift in our education systems, especially at the Collegiate level. Students are being taught curriculums and world views that’s contrary to the Bible. Educators on top of that are being told not to openly share their Christian faith or risk being fired.

Pray for Educators, Coaches, Administrators, Facility workers, etc. For the opportunity to speak life, give counsel, and share the Gospel with the students they have charge over. Pray this profession also receives honor & for their pay to fully reflect their work! They are often overworked, underpaid, and overtasked. Leaving them feeling tired & rundown. Pray strength & wisdom over them.

Lastly, we believe this is a wake up call for parents to be involved & begin to take back lost territory! We must train our kids to have a Kingdom mindset at a young age. So they will be prepared, ready to defend their faith, and not fall prey to the world!

Seek Seeking God first in all we do is a way of life. We want to promote that into our local body of believers (Matthew 6:33)                                                   

Train We are all called to be ministers for Christ, and our desire is for all to be well trained (Ephesians 4:11-12)                        

Activate We are born with a destiny that needs to be activated. Our goal is to activate each one into their call (Romans 13:11)

Nurture Each person has gifts that need to be nurtured. We recognize this and want to provide a safe environment for these gifts to be used  (1 Peter 4:10)

Disperse Our greatest joy is to see God’s love going out into the world. It was never meant to be hidden from the rest of the world (Mark 16:15)

Embrace the truth and hold it close.

Don’t let go of wisdom, instruction, and life-giving

understanding.

Proverbs 23:23
