A PRAYER FOR THE ONES IN NEED OF A FATHER

The love of a father is what every person in the world desires and needs. However, in this broken world, there are many children and adults who don’t have a loving father. Thankfully, our FATHER IN HEAVEN loves us with an everlasting and unconditional love.

On this FATHER’S DAY, I’m praying that every hurting person (child or adult) will experience the amazing gift of God’s perfect love.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for Your everlasting love. I am asking You to comfort the sons and daughters who are without a father today. Hold them close in Your arms and let them know that You are a GOOD FATHER. Give them a great revelation of Your love and heal their pain. Reveal Your love to them in beautiful ways and fill the void by sending a trustworthy spiritual mentor who can help guide and lead them through their lives. Let them walk with confidence and faith in Your ability to meet the desires of their hearts. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

May God’s love fill the void in the hearts of the ones in need of a good father today.

A FATHER’S DAY PRAYER

Every soul has the desire to have a loving and caring father. However, in this fallen world, there are many children and adults who have never experienced a daddy’s love. I have deep compassion for those who are fatherless.

The Bible says God is like a father and we are His children. Isaiah 64:8 says: “But now, O LORD, You are our Father. We are the clay, and You our potter; and all of us are the work of Your hand.”

How incredible it is to know we are like clay in a potter’s hands. We are the work of God’s hand. It’s amazing and beautiful to experience God’s love in a fatherly way.

My prayer is that every hurting person (child or adult) will experience the priceless gift of God’s perfect love and rest in knowing how deeply compassionate is the heart of our Father in Heaven.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for loving us with a perfect, fatherly love. Thank You for being a good heavenly Father and bringing healing to those who are fatherless. Comfort the ones who have never had a loving father and fill the void in the hearts of sons and daughters who have lost their dad due to death, divorce, abandonment, and other circumstances.

Help the ones who are hurting today to rest in Your presence and know that You will never leave them, nor forsake them. Help them look to You always as their provider, nurturer, and protector.

Bring forth many spiritual fathers to meet the needs of those who are hurting today. Fill the hearts of every earthly father with Your love so that they can be conduits of Your amazing grace to their children and grandchildren. We pray in Christ’s name. Amen.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!

 

THE GIFT OF THE FATHER’S LOVE

There is a place inside every person’s heart that needs the love of a father. As humans, we are wired for needing a father’s love and encouragement. Yet, due to death, divorce, deployment, and many other reasons, not everyone has a good father present in their lives. When that need for a father goes unmet, it can cause deep pain in the soul.

Thankfully, our heavenly Father loves us perfectly and He promises never to abandon us. In Hebrews 13:5 it says: “God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’ ” A tangible sense of our heavenly Father’s presence can be felt continually as we press into Him through repentance and prayer. As we draw near to God, His love has the power to heal broken hearts and take away our pain.

Through every hard challenge, God has walked along side me and revealed Himself as a GOOD FATHER. I remember a time I felt weak and restless as I was facing a challenge that seemed impossible to overcome.

With tears rolling down my cheeks, I bowed down at the feet of the Father. I cried out for strength. I prayed, “Father, the obstacles on the path laid out for me feel too big.” His warm embrace enveloped my heart as His love washed over me. His Spirit soothed my soul and the sweetness of His presence encircled me profoundly. In my heart, I could imagine Him whispering words of encouragement.

Child, nothing is too big for Me. I’ll never ask you to do more than I created you for. Rest in Me. Rest in My love, rest in knowing there is nothing I’ll ask of you that will ever be too big. My grace is sufficient for you. In your weakness, My strength is made perfect. Arise my child. Let me put a new song in your heart. Let My love lift you up and carry you.

As His love permeated me with warmth, my soul was restored in an instant. He breathed new life into my spirit and strengthened me. Joy replaced the tears. Peace covered me and made me ready to begin a new day with a new song in my heart—a song of joy for celebrating the love I had found in my Father’s arms.

With the fatherly love of God and His strength—life is made beautiful. He carries those who completely depend on Him. 

May you feel the heavenly Father’s love every day and may He meet the unmet expectations that your earthly father may not have been able to fulfill. Whether you have a good earthly father or not, you can enjoy the priceless gift of God’s perfect love and rest in knowing that a daddy’s love flows from the compassionate heart of our Father in Heaven.

“He is like a father to us, tender and sympathetic to those who reverence Him. “ Psalm 103:13

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for loving us with a perfect, fatherly love. Thank You for bringing healing to our hearts in the places we’ve been wounded. Please help us look to You moment to moment for every need we have. Help us to rest in Your presence and know that You will never leave us, nor forsake us. Help us look to You always as our provider, our nurturer, and our protector. Please fill the hearts of every earthly father with Your love so that they can be conduits of Your amazing grace to their children and grandchildren. We pray in Christ’s name. Amen.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!

Grace and peace to you,

Amy
