DAILY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE FROM MERCYLAND MINISTRIES SUNDAY 20 JUNE 2021.
Topic: Fathers Are Special.
Today’s Scripture: “…and the glory of children are their fathers.” Proverbs 17:6, (KJV).
Message: Fathers are special, not only on Father’s Day because they have many jobs in the home. Father’s job is a lot more complicated today than it was for previous generations of dads. Instead, today’s father is expected to be right there in the delivery room, and more often than not, helping to guide his newborn into the world and cut the cord that connects mother and child, (especially in the western world). The job that begins in the delivery room is one that continues throughout a child’s life. The father’s role, whether his child is a toddler or a teenager, is to encourage that tentative youngster to stretch his abilities. He is both teacher and coach to his young ones as they mature and take their first wobbly steps into a world filled with many challenges.
If you are fortunate enough to be able to talk to your father, thank him today for what he has meant to your life. If your father is no longer living, then thank your heavenly Father that you had a dad who cared about you. Or, you may have painful memories, and we pray that today you will be able to let go of that hurt.
Prayer for Today: Dear Father in heaven, today is a special day for families. You ask that we honour our fathers, and I want to start with You. Thank you for sending Your son and for being the ultimate example of what a father should be: compassionate, caring, strong and wise in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Prophetic Declaration: Father of all fathers, the source of wisdom, knowledge and understanding shall give you ability to show your children, to show your grandchildren and other people, the ultimate of what a father should be by your good personal life examples. Psalm 128 verse 2 (NIV) says: “You will eat the fruit of your labour; blessings and prosperity will be yours”. I hereby decree and declare that you shall have long life with good health, to witness and enjoy the goodness of your children and grandchildren in the land of the living. “The glory of children are their fathers, says the Bible. ” This glory in your life shall not wither, it shall not be destroyed in Jesus mighty name. Amen. Happy Father’s Day to you all.
JESUS SAID: “Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. Revelation chapter 22 verse 12 (NIV). Are you ready for the second coming of Jesus Christ? Please give your life to Jesus.
