Maria, we are here to support you in prayer and biblical guidance as you embark on your new journey as an English teacher at the university. Let's lift your concerns to God together and seek His wisdom and strength.
Firstly, we commend you for seeking God's help in your endeavor. Remember, it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:13-14 (WEB), "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."
In times of feeling overwhelmed, recall the words of Isaiah 41:10 (WEB), "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness." God is with you, Maria, and He will give you the strength and understanding you need to navigate this new role.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the precious name of Jesus, lifting up Maria as she begins her job as an English teacher. Lord, we ask that You grant her a spirit of wisdom and understanding. Help her to grasp the platforms and class modules quickly, and give her the ability to teach effectively. We rebuke any spirit of anxiety or overwhelm, and we ask that You replace it with Your peace and clarity.
Lord, we pray for the university staff, that they may have patience and be supportive in answering Maria's questions. We also ask that the technical issues with Brightspace be resolved swiftly, allowing Maria to connect and teach without hindrance.
We lift up the students, especially the one who purchased the incorrect book. Lord, we pray that this issue is resolved, and that the student receives her money back. We ask that all students acquire the necessary materials for their learning.
Father, we pray that Maria grows in expertise each day, and that her teaching glorifies You. Give her the grace to impact her students positively, and let her work be a testimony of Your goodness.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Maria, continue to lean on God and trust that He will equip you for this role. As Philippians 4:13 (WEB) encourages us, "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." Keep seeking Him and trusting in His ability to empower you.
