I’m in the final stretch of my MA TESOL semester and feeling burned out. I hope I’m not sick. Please pray for a second wind—renewed energy, motivation, clarity, and perspective to finish well. Pray for major breakthroughs—that I’ll get over the hump and finish major assignments soon. Pray for God’s blessing, favor, and grace. Pray that I’ll finish this season with excellence, joy, and for the glory of the Lord. Thank you so much!
Seth
I’m completing Biola’s MA TESOL program with only the Fall 2025 practicum remaining. Since the program is closing and key faculty have moved on, I have limited guidance and support in arranging it. Nevertheless, please pray that the Lord will open the door for a career-launching placement—one that places me under a transformative mentor-teacher, fosters deep and reflective growth, and equips me to craft and define my teaching style. Pray that it becomes a formative apprenticeship, shaping me into an English (ESL/EFL) teacher who teaches with excellence and impact, deeply aligned with God’s calling. Pray that God would grant me decades of wisdom through this practicum. Pray that I’ll be faithfully upheld in prayer, from this practicum into my international teaching and lifelong calling. Thank you so much!
Makenna
Hello,
My name is Makenna. I’ve been having a hard time, please pray for my full deliverance from the enemy. I’m struggling and I’m still young at 25, and would like to grow old free from spiritual attacks. I’ve been disabled most of my life but was a healthcare worker for a little while, I’m not functioning right now. I’d like to do make Christian music one day, do God’s will to the best of my ability, and help the poor. Please ask God to have mercy on me quickly, I opened some doors I shouldn’t have spiritually and now feel attacked spiritually. This prayer doesn’t need to be private, I’d like as many people praying as possible.
Thanks to everybody. God Bless You!
-Makenna
