    7 Good Prayers for College Students

    by Pamela Rose Williams · Print · Email

    As Christians we are continually encouraged and even admonished to pray for one another. As
    our children grow and go off to college our prayers for them are essential as they begin to face
    “the real world”. They need to remain in prayer as well. Here are seven good prayers for college
    students that you might want to use as you pray. These can easily be adjusted for use by the
    student or by others who love them and want to lift up intercessory prayers for college students.

    Praise and Worship


    Dear Lord, as I continue in this new college life help me never to forget to devote time of praise
    and worship to You. I know that you are the One who sustains me and the least I can do for
    everything that You have done for me is to dedicate time to You. Help me to know that renewing
    my mind in You is a necessary part of my life. Nudge me out of bed on Sunday and if there is a
    good mid-week service please make it so I can go to that too. Send new friends my way that are
    like-minded Christians who will attend services with me and hold me accountable when I am
    absent. I love you Lord and I want to praise and worship You. In Jesus name, Amen

    I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living
    sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to
    this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that
    good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. (Romans 12:1-2)

    Instructors and Administrators


    College students have new leaders as they begin this venture in life. Remember to pray for those
    leaders – they are the ones that have the greatest influence on students.

    Pray:

    Dear Lord, I pray for all of my Instructors, Professors and Administrators. As we are told in the
    Bible, as a student (disciple) our teachers are above us and as we grow and learn we strive to be
    like our teacher. Please give them the wisdom, strength and courage to be the best instructor and
    administrator that they can be. Help them to stay healthy as they do well to teach us. Lord, if they
    do not know you as personal Savior, I pray that they come to know you and in doing so that their
    instruction and work is glorifying to You. I pray this in Jesus name. Amen.

    The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master. (Luke
    6:40)

    Time Management
    One of the most difficult things for college students to learn is time management. Success in
    college requires goal setting and time management. It is easy to lose track of time when students
    are making new friends and spending time in social gatherings. Time must be allocated to proper
    study and rest as well as fun.

    Pray:

    Heavenly Father I pray that you will give me the guidance that I need to have fun while still
    maintaining a schedule of proper study and needed rest. Help me to know that sometimes I need
    to “bow out” of a particular social event in order to meet the needs of academic success. Protect
    me as I seek your help in scheduling time for everything. I love you Father and pray this in Jesus
    name, Amen.

    To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: (Ecclesiastes
    3:1)

    Quizzes, Mid-terms and Finals

    Help me to shine the light of Jesus to them so that they too can see how happy I am in You.

    Dear God, I have learned so much and right now I just ask that you help me to remember all of
    those things. Please bring them quickly to mind so that I may successfully pass my tests today.
    Help also my classmates who are studying for exams, that they might have great success. I know
    that our success will glorify you Lord because everything that we do should be done as unto
    You. I pray for peace as I sit for the exams and I know that peace comes only from You. Thank
    you for listening to my prayer and I pray this in Your Son’s name, Amen.

    And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the
    Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. (Colossians
    3:23-24)

    Home Visits
    Dear God, I so enjoy my independence while away at college. As I plan a trip home for a visit
    please help me to honor my parents as I obey the house rules that they have. I know that the rules
    are there for my own good. Help me to show that while I have gained independence during my
    time away that I understand that it is their house so I must obey their rules. Lord, I think this
    might be hard for me but I know that You will guide me and gently remind me of the honor that
    is due to my parents while I am in their house. Please grant me my desire dear Lord, In Jesus
    name, Amen.

    Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; (Ephesians 6:2)

    Relationships
    Dear Lord, I come to you because I want to be sure that I am keeping company with this right
    people. God I know that relationships require careful cultivation and attention. Help me to be
    friendly to others and to welcome them into my world. Help me to shine the light of Jesus to
    them so that they too can see how happy I am in You. Remind me that sometimes I need to ask
    forgiveness when I have offended others. Help me to be forgiving when others have offended
    me. God I want to be a great example of Christianity to everyone I meet. I pray that you will help
    me never to forget that I must take time to work on relationships … just like a garden, for them
    to grow I must be devoted to them. I pray in Jesus name, Amen.

    A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is friend that sticketh closer than a
    brother. (Proverbs 18:24)

    Purity in Thought, Word and Deed


    Dear Precious Father, as I learn to live independently outside of the boundaries that were set for
    me at home, please help me to make good choices that will keep my thoughts, words and deeds
    pure. I want to honor You with my choices. As I choose how I spend my time remind me that
    You are always with me and that my choices should be things that please You. Help me to stay
    away from the things that will temp me to do the things that I know are not edifying to You.
    Remind me that it is my choice and that I can talk to You any time that I am having troubling
    making good choices. Keep me in the company of others that have a good walk with You so that
    I too can have a good walk. I know you will guide me and for this I am so thankful. I know Your
    wisdom is pure, help me to desire only Your wisdom. I pray this through Jesus, Amen.

    But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated,
    full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. (James 3:17)

    Prayer is an essential element in our Christian walk. Praying for ourselves and others is a
    privilege that is uniquely Christian. Feel free to share your own prayers for college students in
