Teacher Help Me: Please Pray Right Away

By Lady Normell Guyden

This prayer guide leads you on a thirty-two-day journey with a singular purpose: to help teachers pray for the students who come to them for help.

As a Christian educator who taught the Spanish language for twenty-one years, Lady Normell knows all too well the challenges students face. Many times, they do not go to their parents with concerns—they go to a trusted teacher.

This prayer guide was divinely inspired to be a prayer resource for teachers, not necessarily for their encouragement but for the encouragement of the students who seek them out for wise counsel and prayer.

However, as the law of sowing and reaping goes, teachers will reap encouragement because of their sowing attention, counsel, and prayer into the lives of their students.

Rooted in the Word of God and filled with practical insights, this prayer guide will help teachers connect with students in meaningful and transformative ways through prayer.
