第十四章 灌輸學習的意願

為兒子禱告

主啊，我禱告×××能深摯敬畏你和你的道路。願他把你的話語珍藏在他內心，尋求聰明如同搜尋金銀一般。賜他良善的心思、受教的靈、和學習能力。在他內心注入渴慕，使他渴慕得到知識和技能，願他能在學習過程中享受樂趣。最重要的是，我禱告他能接受你的教導，因為經上說：當我們的孩子接受你的教導時，他們就必得享平安。你也說過："敬畏耶和華是知識的開端；愚妄人藐視智慧和訓誨。"(箴 1:7)願他永遠不愚妄也不棄絕學習，相反的，願他向你尋求所需的知識。

我禱告他能敬重父母的智慧，願意接受父母的教導。願他也渴望受教於每一位你帶進他生命中的老師。主啊，求你親自精選每一位老師，願他們都是敬虔的人，也很容易成為他學習的對象。除去他生命中任何有邪惡影響力、或帶來不良學習經驗的老師，讓他與老師們相處融洽、溝通良好。幫助他在學業上表現優異，每個科目都能讀得很好。使他的學習途徑平穩，也不因任何事物而有壓力或內心掙紮。使他的頭腦運作順暢，具有清晰的思路和組織力、良好的記憶力、和強烈的學習能力。

我要依據聖經的話對他說："你要留心領受訓誨，側耳聽從知識的言語。"(箴 23:12)"凡事主必給你聰明。"(提後 2:7)主啊，使他更深體驗到認識你和你世界的喜樂。

Lord, I pray that ××× will have a deep reverence for You and Your ways. May he hide Your Word in his heart like a treasure and seek after understanding like silver or gold. Give him a good mind, a teachable spirit, and an ability to learn. Instill in him a desire to attain knowledge and skill, and may he have joy in the process. Above all, I pray that he will be taught by You, for Your Word says that when our children are taught by You, they are guaranteed peace. You have also said, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction" (Proverbs 1:7). May he never be a fool and turn away from learning, but rather may he turn to You for the knowledge he needs.

I pray he will respect the wisdom of his parents and be willing to be taught by them. May he also have the desire to be taught by the teachers You bring into his life, handpick each one, Lord, and may they be godly people from whom he can easily learn. Take out of his life any teacher who would be an ungodly influence or create a bad learning experience. Let him find favor with his teachers and have good communication with them. Help him to excel in school and do well in any classes he may take. Make the pathways of learning smooth and not something with which he must strain and struggle. Connect everything in his brain the way it is supposed to be so that he has the clarity of thought, organization, good memory, and strong learning ability.

I say to him according to Your Word, "Apply your heart to instruction, and your ears to words of knowledge" (Proverbs 23:12). "May the Lord give you understanding in all things" (2 Timothy 2:7). Lord, enable him to experience the joy of learning more about You and Your world.
