Scripture:
“First of all, I ask you to pray much for all men and to give thanks for them.
Pray for kings and all others who are in power over us so we might live quiet
God-like lives in peace.”
— 1 Timothy 2:1–2
Prayer:
Lord, we lift up those who carry the weight of leadership in our
schools—administrators and principals who often make decisions behind the
scenes, navigate difficult conversations, and steward entire campuses with
courage and care.
Give
them clarity of thought and conviction of heart. Help them lead not with fear,
but with faith. Let their leadership create safe, welcoming, and high-achieving
environments where students thrive and teachers feel supported.
Protect
them from burnout, political pressure, and isolation. Surround them with wise
counsel and supportive staff. Help them recognize their influence not just as
managers of systems, but as shepherds of culture.
And
Lord, for those who feel unseen or underappreciated, speak directly to their
spirit today: You see them. You are pleased with their service. Strengthen
their resolve and anchor their hope in You.
Amen.
Go a Step Further:
Send a note or email of appreciation to your school principal or an
administrator in your district. If you do not know one personally, pray by name
for the leader of a school near you. Leadership can be a lonely place—let them
know they are covered in prayer.
