Proverbs 2:1–15

Heavenly Father,
May my child receive Your words,
may s/he treasure Your commandments,
may his/her ear be attentive to wisdom
and his/her heart inclined to understanding;
may s/he call out for insight.
Lord, let him/her treasure Your Truth like silver and 
search for it as though it is the greatest of treasures.
Lord, may s/he understand what it is to fear You
and find in his/her pursuits the knowledge of You.
Father, I thank You that You give wisdom,
that Your mouth pours out knowledge and understanding;
may my child hear Your voice with clarity,
may s/he find in Your words the Truth of what it means to be righteous,
what it is to seek justice and equity, 
and how to discern every good path.
May Your wisdom and knowledge fill his/her heart and delight his/her souls;
may it prove to be sufficient in delivering him/her from the way of evil.
In Jesus’ name I pray. 
Amen.
