For many kids, this means a change in routine, maybe even the first day at a new school, and maybe even the introduction of some teachers. If you have thoughts about attending school, what advice does the Bible have regarding this topic?
Luke 2:52 states, “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and favor with God and man.” This passage reveals that Jesus Christ placed great importance on education.
We can take refuge in the Bible and pray for guidance and protection for this child as they begin this new chapter of their lives. We trust that these will encourage you as you pray God’s promises over your children, whether you homeschool or send them to school.
In James 1:17, it says that every perfect gift is from above. Children are a gift from the Lord.
As parents, we need to raise our children with love and guidance, following the teachings of God just like what is written in Ephesians 6:4. The way they were raised will serve as a guiding force during their time away from home. We can find comfort in the assurance that we have done our utmost to equip them to face any challenges that may arise from the enemy, no matter how they become apparent.
Charles Stanley said, “The soul is the life of the body, faith is the life of the soul and Christ Jesus is the life of faith.”
You can make posters that showcase scripture quotes from the Bible in a delightful and vibrant design. These are also great for any teacher who wants to add a touch of cheer to their Christian schoolroom walls and bulletin boards.
Our phones offer the convenience of accessing multiple translations of the Scripture, but there is still great value in memorizing the Bible for both adults and kids.

These verses for kids will surely have a great impact on their daily lives.
