EVERLASTING FATHER – Thursday August 17 2017
Memorise:
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord,
which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Revelation
1:8
9:6 For
unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government
shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful,
Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
MESSAGE:
A
father is the male personality among the two parents from whom children
originate.
Parents are uniquely linked to their children by blood, and
they are the source of the fundamental and distinctive characteristics
of their children. This special connection is responsible for the usual
display of filial affection between parents and their children. There is
a kind of deep love, compassion, dedication, trust, respect, devotion
and loyalty that usually exists in the relationship between parents and
their children that may not exist in other forms of relationships.
Furthermore, good fathers are known to provide leadership, protection,
provision, discipline, spiritual guidance, and emotional stability for
members of their family. Obviously, mothers are equally important and
their role as parents and leaders in the family cannot be
overemphasised. However, under normal circumstances, the balance of a
family is usually maintained by its organisation around a father-figure.
This is why homes without a father tend to become dysfunctional
families. I therefore pray that God will restore all broken homes,
support all single parents, and rebuke death in our families in the Name
of Jesus.
Action Point
Pray that the Everlasting Father will heal every broken home and dysfunction in your family and local church.
