Scripture:

“If anyone of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” James 1:5

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your promise to give us wisdom, if we ask. Holy Spirit helps parents, teachers, and school administrators to know the Word of God and to obey it especially as we teach and train students.

May we grow in wisdom and live lives that are pleasing unto You. May we always remember that children are near and dear to Your heart. Help us to be responsible and ethical in all the decisions we make and may they

always be in the best interest of our children. We ask all these things in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

Decree:

We decree that parents, teachers and school administrators are wise and make decisions that are pleasing to God. We declare that our children grow in grace and wisdom daily.
