We have previously covered Oklahoma’s Superintendent Ryan Walters, who is now facing serious backlash over bringing Bibles back to schools. As he faces this wave of opposition for doing the right thing, let’s cover him in prayer!
From CBN. Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters is spearheading a controversial mandate to reintroduce the Bible in public school classrooms, one of several faith-based moves that have led to roughly 30 lawsuits from various groups, including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). …
Join others crying out to the Lord day and night.
The son of a pastor and a former history teacher, Walters has taken the national spotlight for mandating Oklahoma teachers to use a physical copy of the Bible during student instruction, alongside the U.S. Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Ten Commandments. He insists these documents are crucial for a proper education. …
Critics argue that this mandate crosses the line between religious instruction and secular education, a line defined by Supreme Court rulings such as Engel v. Vitale (1962) and Abington School District v. Schempp (1963), which prohibit school-sponsored Bible readings and prayer.
“We have seen the Supreme Court starting in the 1960s and then the teachers’ unions, in every practical way, pushing the Bible out of schools,” Walters said. “When I came into office, we had multiple threats of lawsuits from national atheist organizations telling teachers to remove the Bible… to remove Bible verses, to never mention God or Jesus in the classroom. Well, think about the absurdity of that. How do you teach the Pilgrims, why they came to America, if you can’t ever mention the Bible?”
Several organizations, including the ACLU, have filed lawsuits against Walters’ office, arguing that the mandate violates the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution, which prohibits government-sponsored religious activities in public schools. …
The ACLU has also filed a lawsuit against Walters and Oklahoma’s Statewide Virtual Charter School Board, challenging the approval of St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School, which could become the nation’s first publicly funded religious charter school. Critics argue that using taxpayer dollars for religious schools violates both the Oklahoma Constitution and the Establishment Clause.
“We’re continuing to fight to give St. Isidore the ability to open up,” Walters explained. “We’ve had several legal battles. I’m very optimistic this will move to the U.S. Supreme Court, and we will be allowed to open the school. I’ve been advocating for this school. It’s the first Christian charter school in the country. We are very excited to have that here in Oklahoma, but again, we’ve got some legal hurdles to overcome.”
These cases are among the dozens of lawsuits filed against Walters’ office, which also include claims of wrongful termination, whistleblower retaliation, and other constitutional violations. …

The biggest weird thing about this is ā¦
The establishment clause is actually being violated by Atheism in this country.
Atheism is a religion that is teaching its molecules to man origin story as fact and āscienceā and making the kids answer test questions about it as truth not as religion.
There is no problem with Re aching atheistic and christian worldviews as such and testing the kids on their understanding of the worldviews. The problem is when we teach these worldviews and then give the kids litmus tests on them as truth.
So this attack on Walters is hypocrisy as the other side is established wrongly in the public schools.
Bible believers are taxpayers. Last I checked public schools are to represent the public and news flash: There are lots of Bible believers in our communities! Christian dollars can pay for everything else to be in classroom, why not the Bible? My solution is: give us our money back and let us decide what we want to fund!!
Thank you Mr. Walters! May the country follow suit. America a REVIVAL is Coming! Its starting now! Hallelujah!

Thank you God for Ryan Walters, a man you have placed in this position at this particular time. God bless him with the confidence he is in your favor. Protect him from the enemy’s darts. And may his good works spur others on to good courage and the kind of faith that you talk about in your holy Word. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Fighting for the inclusion of the Bible will always be the correct choice, both in the spiritual and physical realm. The children of God still in the physical realm, and the fallen in the spiritual realm both agree on its power. Knowing this, we pray:
Lord, please bless and protect Ryan with your favor, but also with your grace and mercy. Thank you for men of his character who take this path for the Gospel, despite the hardships, lies, and disadvantages that will be thrown at him by the secular world. May others be emboldened by his example, becoming like-minded and may America be SAVED!
Father ,
Protect this “Man of Courage, for You!”
May you rise up YOUR Warring Angels & Fellow Warriors to Fight for Him & His Heart, Stand!
Jesus Name ,Amen
Father, thank you for this Superintendent’s courage. Help him to stand firm. May the teaching of the Bible not be twisted to teach falsehoods. May teachers who pick it up be changed by what it says. We bind Satan from what he is trying to do and bless this school district.
Father in Heaven may your justice in these lawsuits prevail. Father I thank you for truly a deciple of yours I pray for your protection and strength that you can provide for Ryan Walterās. In Jesus name Amen
It is a bit late for this – who would teach the Scripture – who would teach the Ten Commandments? What if the teacher is divorced and remarried or living with someone? Could such a person teach God’s Holy Word? The Bible is not like a Maths book – or a geography book.
We will assuredly pray for Ryan Walters as he is enduring horrible abuse through lawfare. We will pray that he comes out as innocent through the ruling of the Supreme Court, whenever that happens.
Lord Jesus we pray for the success of these efforts to be able to teach truth in the classroom. Thank you Amen.
We serve a just God. We have to be courageous as the early church was. We need more men and women with a back bone. Help us to be strong in You Dear Lord.
LORD GOD
PLEASE SUPPORT AND PROTECT RYAN AS HE IS UNDER SATANIC ATTACK. HELP HIM TO WIN AND GAIN JUSTICE FOR THE CHILDREN HONEED YOUR WORDS IN THEIR LIVES.
I ASK IN JESUSā NAME
AMEN
Let’s start by reintroducing the Bible to Christian homes.
Thank You, Lord, for raising up Ryan Walters to spearhead an effort to return the Word of Truth back into the public arena. Strengthen him, Holy Spirit, that he may remain steadfast in this pursuit of righteousness. May Ryan’s efforts lead many more believers to take up the Sword of the Spirit to do battle against the demonic forces that constantly fight against Your Word. Bring this case to the Supreme Court and use the Justices You have placed in this Court to clearly define what the “Establishment Clause” actually means. Bless Ryan one hundred fold for His stand and may many believers stand beside him and hold up his arms in this battle.
Lord Jesus, I thank and praise You for this godly man, Ryan Walters. I commend the Courageous stand that he has taken for You and Your Kingdom. Let this be but a beginning of the advancement of your kingdom in our nation, and a wake up call for the numerous intimidated and complacent Christians in America. Lord , how we need a national revival! May these events bring this to pass. ThankYou, Jesus.
Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you with my prayer for Ryan Waters! He is trying to stop the indoctrination of our children! The teachers unions are fighting him to stop the Bible being taught in the schools of Oklahoma! Lord we pray that you would give Ryan strength to continue to be a voice for You! And Lord AG Drummond is fighting against him too! Please Lord bless this for the children today! He stopped critical race theory in the schools. Please help him continue to be Your voice in the schools!
In Jesus Name
Dear Lord we stand against the oppression of the devil by the authority given to us in Ephesians 2:6 that we are seated in heavenly places together with You and command the enemy to flee.
Thank you Lord for raising up this man to put your Truth in the schools again , thank you for your beautiful Spirit that lives in him and that nothing that comes against him will turn him down knowing this is Your task and You will give him the victory.
āWhoever is born of God overcomes the worldāš
1 John 5:4
In Jesus Name our beautiful Savior we pray
Dear Jesus continue to set his feet upon a rock
Smite the enemy with compassion and continue to give Ryan courage
Lord, thank you for raising up such a strong godly man as Ryan Walters. Give him good strong advisors and allies. Help them to walk courageously, without fear in spirit and truth covered by the armor of God and prayers of your people. Go before him teaching him and all with him to use the weapons mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, imaginations and everything that sets itself up against the fear and knowledge of God, taking every thought captive making it obedient to Christ. We ask that you establish this strong stand for what is right and good as an example to others as the good that is found in standing on the Word and teaching our children from the Word of Truth.
No physical, legal, or spiritual weapon formed against this man or his office will stand! As he is standing for truth and righteousness, our Lord will stand with him, and cause him to stand, holding him up in his footsteps! In Jesus’s name and under His authority, amen
Father protect Ryan Walters and let your will be done. May your people continue to rise and stand against evil. In the mighty name of Jesus our lord and savior.
Amen
Father,
Give Ryan Walters wisdom and discernment. Give him Your strategies to fight in this battle to bring Biblical truth back into schools. Give him favor like a shield. Let no weapon formed against him prosper. Keep him in Your perfect peace. Let no strategy of the enemy succeed against him and those standing with him. Give him the victory so that children may know the truth and the truth will set them free.
In Jesus Holy and Mighty Name. Amen.
Atheism is a religion. Only an omniscient God could accurately say, “There is no God.” G.K. Chesterton put it another way in his autobiography. He said it would be truer to say that there are no Atheists. To take all positive mention of God out of the public schools is to establish Atheism as the state religion. The Atheists are themselves violating the establishment clause of the Constitution.
Oh my is that truth!!
āBut Maccabeus, as always, trusted with all hope that God would be present to help them.
And he exhorted his own not to fear the arrival of the nations, but to keep in mind the assistance they had received before from heaven, and now to hope for a future victory from the Almighty.ā

Hallelu Yah! Praise ye, Name of the One. Your people praise Your Holy Name. Yahshua- Salvation of Yah, Almighty Warrior; Holy Spirit – The Helper, The Wind and The Fireā¦
You are always working, even when You are silent, You are never still. Your works are wonderful.
As Ryan Walterās engages in this battle, a battle that You appointed for him, I thank You that You already are meeting his each and every need. You help him in his weakness, You intercede, You move him toward his destination and You freely give him Your wisdom, discernment and power, You have given him You Armor of Light!
Most Holy One, dominate his thoughts, continue to pour over him the Power of Your Holy Spirit, open his eyes as you opened Elijahās servantās eyes:
āGod opened the servant’s eyes, and he saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.ā 2 Kings 6
This battle belongs to You; Omnipresent , Omnipotence and Omniscience One. I thank You for Your oversight of all things Oklahoma, all things USA, world and universe.
In the Name of Your Son, King of Kings and LORD of Lords, Jesus.

FATHER,
We pray for Ryan Walters who is standing for the bible, the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Ten Commandments to be taught in schools. Lord, keep him stable, strong, diligent, in how he is representing You and himself. Give him wisdom to plead his case, and the lawyers representing him as well. Father, we ask for the judges in the courts to listen with righteous judgement on behalf of Superintendent Walters. We decree and declare that “NO weapon formed against Ryan Walters shall prosper and what is trying to come up against him will be showed wrong.” Lord, change the hearts of the atheist, the witches, the pharisees whom come against your Word, Your truth. Bring them to their knees so they cry out MERCY, and their blinders come off and their ears open to hear the TRUTH and accept YOU. In Jesus Name AMEN

Children need to learn the historical truth of the Bible and its Godly positive working’s in the lives and history of the USA. these things I pray for in Jesus name, amen.
Dearest Heavenly Father: We lift Ryan Walters to you, Lord. You know him. You see what he is trying to do. He is trying to right a wrong imposed years ago. In Proverbs 16:7 you tell us that when a man’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies be at peace with him. We ask that you silence and make those attacking Mr. Walters all be at peace with him. In Isaiah 54:13 you say “And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children. In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression: for thou shalt not fear; and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.” You further remind us in Isaiah 54:17 “No weapon formed against thee shall prosper; and EVERY TONGUE that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.” Father we declare your word which will not return to you void over Mr. Walters and ask you to silence those opposing Mr. Walters doing work for you. Give him victory in this work as we give you All Glory, Honor, Power and Praise for you alone are Worthy to be Praised! We pray this prayer in the Mighty Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, Savior, Healer, Protector, Best Friend Ever — our Everything! Amen
