Pray for Our American Heroes and Nation - Father's Day

[Faith]

Like as a father pities his children,
so the Lord pities them that fear Him.
For He knows our frame;
He remembers that we are dust.
- Psalm 103: 13-14

And you fathers, provoke not your children to wrath;
but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
-Ephesians 6: 4

[Faith]

Heavenly Father,

Surely You are the spiritual model for all earthly fathers. On this day when we honor our fathers, we ask You to help us to honor You first with our lives. You are perfect Father. Though our earthly fathers may fail us, yet You never leave us nor forsake. You love Your children so completely, so eternally, and so much more than we can imagine or think. Thank You, Abba Father, for being more than enough for us all.

Lord, we ask You to bless fathers this day with the desire to be the spiritual leaders of their households. We pray that they would rise us and be the spiritual compass for their families---showing them the ways of righteousness. May they provoke not their children, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. And may they love their wives as Christ has love the Church and has given Himself for it.

Father, we commit our military men and women to You in these times that grow more troubled by the day. Comfort the families of those lost in friendly fire this past week. Strengthen those who are headed for Iraq to help quell the uprisings there. Lord, our hearts go out to these brave young people. We know that You will care for them and that Your shield and banner will go before them. We pray Your comfort for all the children whose fathers are serving away from home this day.

Lord, we need strong fathers in order to have Godly families. May the men of this nation rise up and follow You as they seek to lead their children. And may Your Name be glorified in our lives both now and evermore. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

Listened to this before going to church this morning. It is a must watch for grandfathers, fathers, fathers-to-be and just everyone in general.
