We join with you, Siphokazi Portia Seepi, in lifting up your children, Amogelang and Kutlwano, before the throne of grace. We are reminded of the promise in James 1:5, "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of the giving God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him."
Let us pray:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, seeking Your mercy and grace upon Amogelang and Kutlwano. You know their needs, their struggles, and their desires. We ask that You grant them wisdom and understanding in their studies. Help them to apply themselves diligently and to bring forth much fruit in their academics. We claim Your promise in Proverbs 3:5-6, 'Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and donβt lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.'"
"Lord, we also pray that You would help them to prioritize their time, to be disciplined in their studies, and to remain focused on their goals. We ask that they would not only strive for academic excellence but also grow in the knowledge and grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May they be a light in their schools, reflecting the love and kindness of Jesus."
"We ask all these things in Jesus' name, trusting in Your goodness and mercy. Amen."
Siphokazi, we encourage you to continue praying fervently for your children, as persistent prayer is effective and powerful (James 5:16). Moreover, teach them to trust in the Lord with all their hearts, reminding them that God's ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9).
Lastly, we commend you for raising your children in the name of Jesus, as it is only through Him that we have access to God's throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). Keep trusting in Him, and He will surely direct your paths and those of your children.
