A Prayer For When we Need a Little Help

Just like a child stuck at the top of a slide, fear and anxiety can leave us feeling paralyzed in life. But Jesus assures us that we are never left alone. Through His death and resurrection, the Holy Spirit—the Helper—now dwells within us, giving strength, peace, and guidance in every circumstance.

From school stresses to parenting challenges, we can rest in the truth that God’s Spirit is with us and our children. We don’t have to muster up joy or strength on our own; our Helper equips us to live faithfully and confidently.

Reference: John 16:7

Prayer: Father, help our children to know that they have a Helper. Remind them that they are never alone, not even in the overwhelm that school work can sometimes bring. Help me to teach them to depend on your Spirit as their source of strength. Amen.

A Prayer For Diligence

Proverbs 10:4–5 reminds us, “A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich. He who gathers in summer is a prudent son, but he who sleeps in harvest is a son who brings shame."

In this episode, we reflect on what true diligence looks like—not frantic striving, but steady persistence over time. Through personal stories of learning to read as a child and helping a son do the same, we see how small, consistent steps can lead to lasting growth.

Reference: Proverbs 10:4-5

Prayer: Lord, may our children apply themselves as school year and be diligent. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer For God to Work in Spite of Us
Praying God’s Word over our children is not about our perfection as parents but about trusting Him to redeem our lack and use it for His purposes.

Through stories of biblical figures with broken pasts, encouragement from personal family experiences, and testimonies from modern moms, we are reminded that God delights in making something out of nothing. Even when we feel like we’ve failed, God is still weaving His kingdom story in the lives of our children and loved ones.

Reference: Numbers 6:24-26

Prayer: Father, please bless my loved ones in spite of my lack and the many ways I've failed them and you. I believe you are the Redeemer God, redeem anything that's been lost in my life and use it for your glory in Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer to be Steadfast

Endurance is built--not in comfort, but in trial.

In this episode, Tara Cole reflects on the challenges of the 2020–2021 school year and how those struggles mirror the spiritual lessons James and Paul wrote about in Scripture. Just as our families endured through one of the most difficult educational seasons, we can carry that strength into future challenges with hope and trust in God’s faithfulness.

Reference: James 1:2-4

Prayer: May our children be steadfast this school year and find joy in the work. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

A Prayer For Hard Work

In this episode, we reflect on the importance of teaching and modeling a strong work ethic for our children. School isn’t easy for every child (or parent!), and sometimes the daily struggle with homework, focus, and motivation can feel exhausting.
Tara Cole helps us learn from Joseph’s early life in Genesis 37, and we’re reminded that diligence and persistence matter—not just for grades today but for shaping the character of tomorrow.

Reference: Proverbs 14:23

Prayer: Lord, may our children work hard this school year so they may grow and prosper. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer For Endurance
Teaching is rewarding, but it can also be exhausting—especially when students don’t immediately see the value in what they’re learning.Today's prayer written by Tara L. Cole, we explore the importance of relying on God’s strength in the classroom and beyond.

Drawing parallels to Moses’ reluctance and eventual trust in God’s calling, we’re reminded that He equips those He calls with both presence and tools. God’s strength is the foundation for endurance, patience, and joy.

Reference: Colossians 1: 11

Prayer: Lord, grant teachers the strength and endurance they need to do their best as they teach our children. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer to Encourage Teachers
Many times, the loudest voices are the most negative ones. Have you ever thought about how you can encourage teachers?
In this episode, Nicolet Bell draws from Ephesians 4:29 and challenges us to filter our communication through two questions: Is this helpful for building this person up? Does it benefit them? Let's be moms who send the encouraging text or email. Let's speak life into our teachers this year.
Reference: Ephesians 4:29

Prayer: Father, help our family to surround our teachers with encouragement.

A Prayer For Teachers to Speak Life
Words have power to give life.
In this episode from Tara L. Cole, we explore the power of life-giving words and how they can shape a child’s heart, even in moments of correction. Drawing parallels to how Jesus called Peter “the rock” before he became one, the message reminds us that encouragement sees potential beyond the present. Teachers, parents, and leaders are urged to look past shortcomings and instead call out the best in those they guide.

Reference:1 Thessalonians 5:11

Prayer: Lord, fill all our teachers with life -giving words and build them up so they can pour into our children. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer For Teachers
Teaching is one of the most challenging jobs—and recent years have made it even harder. Just as Solomon humbly asked God for wisdom to lead Israel, our children’s teachers also need God’s guidance to lead, teach, and care for their students well.
In this episode by Tara L. Cole we explore how we can pray intentionally for teachers, advocate for them, and partner with them in helping our children flourish—whether they’re in a classroom, learning online, or being homeschooled.
Reference: 1 Kings 3: 8-9

Prayer: Lord, Give all teachers the wisdom and insight this school year and prosper their efforts in Jesus name.
