The Book Of John John 16:14-18

for educators
“He will glorify Me, for He will take what is Mine and declare it to you. All that the Father has is
Mine; therefore I said that He will take what Is Mine and declare it to you. A little while, and you will
see Me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see Me.” So some of His disciples said to one
another, “What is this that He says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me, and again a little
while, and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I am going to the Father’?” So they were saying, “What
does He mean by ‘a little while’? We do not know what He is talking about.”

There’s a Word for that! Prayer

Do you want to know the will of God for you? Rejoice, pray and give thanks. How in the world can

you pray without ceasing? Rejoice, pray and give thanks throughout the school day.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 – Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances;
3

for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Dear Heavenly Father,

We rejoice that You are God. We give thanks for
Your abundant love and protection. Lord, we
want to have a mindset of prayerfulness, but we
are fortunate to even get through the day. Help
us to truly learn how to pray without ceasing in a
way that will bring You glory and honor. Help us
Y

Lord to rejoice, pray and give thanks. During the

school day, we would love to pray for Your
guidance in everything. We would love to lift up
A

colleagues. We would love to pray for wisdom,
mercy and grace to all that we impact at school.
Help us Lord to learn to pray without ceasing. We
D

praise You in the name of Jesus. Amen.
