Pray Your Child Into Purpose Prayer Devotionalಮಾದರಿ

DAY 3: Prayers for Teachers & Mentors

Today, I declare over you, my child, that God will bring mentors and teachers into your life who will guide you with wisdom, integrity, and love. I pray that your path will cross with people who see your unique gifts and potential and that these mentors will be equipped to encourage, guide, and empower you as you journey toward God’s purpose for your life. Just as Esther found favor with Hegai and guidance from Mordecai, may you find mentors who provide insight, counsel, and support as you face life’s challenges and embrace opportunities.

I pray that God will fill your life with teachers who help you grow in knowledge, build strong character, and inspire you to pursue excellence. May they challenge you to expand your thinking and strengthen your faith, and may their influence help you become a person of integrity and purpose. I declare that you will have mentors who, like Mordecai, speak truth into your life, even when it is difficult, and that you will listen with a willing and teachable heart, learning the value of humility and obedience.

I speak favor over your relationships with teachers, coaches, and mentors who serve as godly examples and role models. I pray they will lead by example, showing you the importance of kindness, resilience, and a strong work ethic. May these mentors also help you see the doors of opportunity that God is opening for you and encourage you to walk through them with faith. May you experience the blessing of trustworthy and wise mentors who pour into your life with encouragement, correction, and love.

Lord, I pray that You will protect my child from any unworthy or misleading influences and that they will be drawn only to mentors who live with integrity and godliness. Guard their heart, Lord, and give them discernment to recognize who they should trust and look up to. I pray that they will be anchored in Your truth, finding security in Your love and guidance above all else.

As my child grows, may they themselves become a role model and a source of encouragement to others. Let their life be a reflection of Your love, and may they share with others the same wisdom, kindness, and support they receive from mentors along the way. Thank You, Lord, for sending the right people into their life to help them walk confidently in the purpose You have set before them.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

Parenting for Purpose Tip

Take time to identify mentors or influential adults in your child’s life who can positively shape their character and perspective. Encourage them to value and respect the guidance of these mentors. Share stories from the Bible, like that of Esther and Mordecai, to show how wise mentorship can help us navigate life. Pray with your child about finding good influences, and remind them of the importance of listening, learning, and showing respect to those who invest in their growth.
