SPEAK LIFE

The wise in heart are called discerning, and gracious words promote instruction. The hearts of the wise make their mouths prudent, and their lips promote instruction.

Proverbs 16:21, 23

To our loving, faithful, Heavenly Father,

We bless and thank You today for speaking us into existence. You are our amazing Creator. You spoke out into the the darkness and manifested every desire of Your heart simply by Your powerful words. 

Today we pray that the words of our mouths be filled with life. You have given those of us who are called by Your name a greater power of speech because we are filled with Your Holy Spirit. 

As You instruct, teach and counsel us every day, watch over us and manage the issues of our hearts. 

May our speech be deliberate and reflect Your words so that the meditations of our hearts and words of our mouth will be pleasing in Your sight. 

Bridle our tongues and lead our words to a destiny of greatness over every student and situation in our schools.

Remind us Lord, that we are not allowed to broadcast what we think You won't do. Nothing is impossible for You.

In Jesus' Name,

-Amen
