Prayer is a forum for us to communicate openly with God. In doing so, we not only reaffirm our faith but also find comfort, guidance, and wisdom. It provides us with a spiritual anchor and can have a transformative impact on our lives.

Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, I come before you today with a heart full of gratitude and a spirit thirsty for knowledge. Merciful Lord, bless me as I embark on this journey of acquisition of knowledge and education, for it is a path that leads to enlightenment and transformation – both personally and socially.
May you give me wisdom, dear God, to understand that true knowledge isn’t merely about acquiring facts, but about understanding your divine principles and applying them in our daily living. I pray that you fill me with a humble spirit, teachable heart, and an open mind to learn, unlearn, and relearn to grow spiritually, academically, and socially.
- Guide my understanding and interpretations, and let them not be clouded by prejudice or misconceptions.
- Help me value the process of learning as much as the end goal, Bless me with patience to comprehend complex concepts and the resilience to overcome academic hurdles.
- Spark in me, a desire to use the acquired knowledge for the betterment of society, to glorify your name and bring about positive change in the world.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, I pray.
