Forty Days of Prayer for Education: Day 14

Section 2: Refocus and Refresh

Join with us today and pray our prepared prayer on page 28 from the FORTY DAYS OF PRAYER FOR EDUCATION free eBook or pray independently from our focus scripture, Philippians 4:19 NIV and enjoy the accompanying song entitled, "More Than Anything" by Lamar Campbell .

As you listen and sing along with today's song, declare from your heart your love for Jesus.  It is He who has made the undeserved gift of salvation possible.  It is He who provides for our daily blessings. Let's thank Him by simply saying, "I love you Jesus".



YOUR BLESSINGS

And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus. 
Philippians 4:19 NIV 


Praise the Lord, through whom all blessings flow, 

We come before You today thanking You with the fullness of our gratitude for Your blessings in our lives. Through the reading of Your word and the grace, mercy and miracles You have gifted to us, we are in awe of You. We marvel at Your mighty deeds and fear Your holy name. 

Thank You for choosing us according to Your foreknowledge through the sanctifying work of the Spirit for obedience to Jesus Christ. Because of this, we find great delight in You. 
You are making our children and students mighty in this land. 

You are blessing us with unexpected raises, bonuses and incentives, for wealth and riches are in our homes and You are gracious, compassionate and righteous towards us. 

You, Lord, are aware how Your educators lend freely and give of their own to provide for their students. Your good, will come to us. 

You have not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. So we will not fear when bad news arrives, but will trust in You with all of our heart because You have already won the victory for us. 

As You continue to bless us, our blessings will not only benefit those children directly around us, but we will scatter the seed of Your blessings in our lives to children living abroad through the missionaries who take Your word throughout this world. 

You are blessing us to be a blessing. Thank You for Your enduring righteousness and favor. 

In Jesus’ name, 

-Amen
