Scriptures:
“My frame was not hidden from You, when I was being made in secret, intricately
woven in the depths of the earth… all the days ordained for me were written in
Your book before one of them came to be.”
— Psalm 139:15–16
“When
I was a child, I spoke like a child… but when I became a man, I gave up
childish ways.”
— 1 Corinthians 13:11
Prayer:
Lord, we lift up colleges and universities today—the campuses where young
adults wrestle with ideas, identity, and independence. Let these institutions
be places of both academic rigor and spiritual awakening. May they not simply
produce degrees, but also character, purpose, and wisdom.
We
pray especially for freshmen. For those who are away from home for the first
time, unsure of who they are, or overwhelmed by all the changes—Lord, be near.
Plant solid friendships early. Connect them with communities that will
strengthen their faith and values. Quiet the voices of insecurity and
comparison.
Protect
college campuses from spiritual darkness, confusion, and compromise. Raise up
godly mentors, campus ministries, and professors who speak life. Guide every
student in classrooms, dorm rooms, dining halls, and quiet study spaces. Lead
them as they step boldly into adulthood.
Amen.
Go a Step Further:
If you know someone entering their first year of college, pray for them by name
today. Consider sending them a Scripture, a care package, or a word of
encouragement as they begin this new season of growth.
