Bold Prayers for Moms: A Back-to-School Devotionalનમૂનો

Mama, the back-to-school season isn’t just about shopping lists and schedules.
It’s a spiritual assignment.

Whether you’re sending your little one off for the first time, watching your teen navigate identity and peer pressure, or preparing a college student to live away from home—you feel the weight. The emotions swirl: hope, anxiety, excitement, uncertainty.

This devotional is your reminder that you are not powerless.
In fact, you’re one of the most powerful voices in your child’s life—and in the spirit realm.

When a mother prays, heaven moves.

Over the next five days, you’ll receive short, powerful, Scripture-based devotions and bold prayers that speak directly into your child’s school life—and your heart as a mom. These aren’t just sweet sentiments. These are spiritual declarations. Weapons of faith. Anchors for your soul.

My prayer is that this journey ignites your authority, reminds you that you are seen by God, and empowers you to pray with confidence, peace, and purpose.

Let’s begin this school year not in fear—but in faith.

You were born for this.
Let’s pray boldly, Mama.

— Oluseye Ashiru

Day 1: You’re Not Powerless, Mama

Scripture:

"The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective."
— James 5:16b (NIV)

Devotional:

Let’s be honest—sometimes motherhood feels overwhelming.
Especially during back-to-school season. You're juggling supplies, schedules, lunches, car lines, and emotions (yours and theirs). And deep down, you may wonder: Am I doing enough?

Here’s the truth you need to hold on to today:
You are not powerless. You are a praying mom.

And that makes you one of the most spiritually dangerous people on the planet.

When you pray, heaven hears.
When you speak God’s Word over your children, things shift—hearts, environments, decisions.
When you stand in the gap, the atmosphere in your home, your child’s school, and even their destiny begins to align with heaven’s plan.

Prayer is not your last resort.
It’s your fiercest weapon.

So, before you run into the chaos of the new school year, pause.
Breathe.
And pray with boldness.

Your words have weight. Your voice carries power.
And your prayers are planting seeds that will bear fruit far beyond what you can see right now.

Mama, you're not powerless.
You're positioned.

🙏🏽 Bold Prayer:

Father, thank You for reminding me that I am not helpless—I am heard. I take my place as a praying mom today. I lift up my child, this school year, and everything connected to it. I declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper. I declare that wisdom, protection, and favor surround them like a shield.

Let Your Word guide me. Let Your Spirit strengthen me.
And may my prayers echo through the halls of heaven with power and effectiveness.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
