Sovereign Lord, I come to You in Jesus’ Name to praise You for enabling (student’s name ____) to put in the hard work required to graduate. You say in Scripture, “whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men” Colossians 3:23. Working hard not only helps graduates succeed, it also lets them bring glory and honor to You.

Remind them that whatever intelligence and work ethic was accomplished is a gift from You. Even though this season of school has ended, direct the graduates not to stop growing in godly knowledge. Proverbs 1:7 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”

I thank You for all those who have come alongside the graduates to instruct them, and for the way You have given them the wisdom to discern truth from lies. As the graduates continue to grow in spiritual maturity in this new season of life, they will encounter more situations to test their discernment. I pray that You continue to enable them to make wise, godly decisions. Proverbs 2:6 “For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.“

Thank you for the excitement that comes with graduation. Encourage the graduates to trust You in the nervousness that comes with it.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
