Last week I shared the Scriptures to Pray for College students. This week I am sharing Suggestions to pray for college students
Pray, they will:
1. Experience the reality of a relationship with Jesus Christ and live the adventure of following Jesus.
2. Grow spiritually with a hunger for God’s Word.
3. Be motivated, disciplined, and challenged to apply themselves in their studies to excel academically.
4. Seek God’s wisdom and direction in their management of time, money, and talents.
5. Think creatively and live with integrity.
6. Recognize their gifts so they can find their God-given assignment.
7. Provide the resources to fulfill their God-given assignment.
8. Date wisely (which leads to a spouse for a lifetime).
9. Find a spouse with a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
10. Remain sexually pure for marriage.
11. Be willing to accept responsibility and make wise financial decisions.
12. Have open communication and a good relationship with their parents.
13. Recognize the deception of the world and flee from it.
14. Be covered with God’s safekeeping physically, spiritually, and emotionally.
15. Choose friends who will have a positive influence.
16. Have a balanced view of their beauty, charm, and strength.
