This week's church prayer is for:
Peace Lutheran Church

7390 Elizabeth Lake Rd

Father God, I pray for the protection of all Waterford Schools—physical, emotional, spiritual, and in every way. That no harm or evil befall the schools or the children. I make the proclamation according to Your Word that no demonic spirits of lawlessness, homosexuality, bullying, criticism, intolerance, rebellion, addiction, party spirits, laziness, irresponsibility, ADD, hyperactivity or any and all demonic forces gain victory over these kids. Anything that would try and give them a negative learning, school or childhood experience or that would try and lead them away from You Father, will have no success. No plagues, lice, outbreaks of diseases, epidemics or pandemics will come to these kids or schools.

Father God I ask for blessing and favor on behalf of these schools and these children. I pray they have a positive, healthy learning and social environment. I pray for the teachers, leaders, principals, school staff, vendors, volunteers, coaches, parents and guardians, for their protection as well and that they have a true and sincere love and compassion for these children. That You give them godly wisdom as to what’s best for these kids and that they act on that. That they have all the resources to accomplish this and Your will for these schools. I pray for them and all the students and families that they respond to the drawing of the Holy Spirit. That they come to discover Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. That the deceptive forces of hell have no effect on them. Blinders and veils be removed from their mind, hearts, eyes and ears and let the light of the glorious gospel of Christ shine in their hearts so they believe.

Father God, give them dreams, visions and a revelation of Jesus Christ. Let there be angelic visitations to do Your bidding, will, plan and purpose. Let there be God coincidences so they know You are real and that You care for them and love them. Let the Name of Jesus be freely spoken in honor and respect, praise and worship. Let praise and worship of You rise up from these kids and these schools. Jesus Christ is Lord over Waterford--including the schools and churches! Let the kids discover God given gifts and talents and make wise godly decisions, develop healthy friendships and relationships. Direct their paths O Lord and cause them to make the right connections for their future. Orchestrate their lives as only You can. Let them excel. Let their minds be free to learn and let them be free from all yokes of the enemy. Let the families of students, teachers and staff not be abusive—physically, verbally, emotionally, sexually or in any other evil way, in their homes, at the schools or school or family events. May the families and kids come to know Jesus Christ and draw closer to Him each and every day. Let the predators be stopped, exposed and caught. Let selfishness and self seeking motives be replaced with godly love.

Build Your kingdom O God in Waterford. In these schools and families represented here. Let there be creative worship art from these kids. Have Your way. Let them think of You in honor and respect; let them love and worship You every day. Meet them in the mornings, speak to them throughout they day, be there with them at night.

I pray for the Waterford board of education and the State board of education. That they work to build Your kingdom O God. That the laws, policies, procedures and practices be in line with Your will and purpose. That they are pro Christian, intolerant of agendas contrary to Your purposes. May they have godly wisdom to stand against demonic forces that come against these kids. May each and every member draw closer to You every day. Let them have courage, wisdom, strength, resources and favor to oppose the devils schemes. Impart Your presence and life in Jesus’ Holy, blessed and powerful Name, Amen!
