A CRY FOR PRAYING FATHERS

A CRY FOR A PRAYING FATHER!!

 

O! Lord, that you will raise for us in this generation, praying fathers. 

 

Father's that will stand in the gap for their families, in prayers 

Fathers that will speak life over their children 

Fathers that will bless their children, and not curse them

 

Fathers that will raise their children in the fear of the Lord, and not destroy them on the altar of their greed, lust and selfishness 

 

Fathers that will not be afraid to prophesy over their families 

Father's that will be prophets and priest to their sons and daughters 

 

Father's that will not leave the spiritual destiny of their family, in the hands of their wives 

 

Fathers that will not leave the spiritual destiny of their family in the hands of some Prophets 

 

Fathers that will be spiritual mentors to their sons and daughters and not spiritual drainers of destinies 

Fathers that will contend for souls of their fellow men on their knees 

 

Fathers that will stand up spiritual and boldly say to the devil

Enough Satan you can't have my son

Enough satan you can't have my daughter 

Enough Satan you can't have my marriage 

Enough satan you can't have my business 

 

Lord raise for us, in this generation real men, that are not afraid to weep between the altars for the souls of their children 

Warrior men, that are not afraid to fight on their knees for the destiny of their family 

 

Men that proudly wear the badge of a praying father 

Men whose spiritual muscles is larger and stronger than their 

physical muscles 

 

Men whose spiritual workout is more important to them than their physical workout 

Men who are more in interested in being spiritually fit than physically fit 

 

Praying father, not because you're a pastor, but because you're loving and caring, father

 

Prophetic father, not because you're a prophet, but because you're a loving and caring father  

 

We need intercessor father, and not abusive fathers

We need fathers that will fight the devil on their knees an, not beat their wives with their fists and mouth 

 

Fathers, O dear father how our generation miss you 

 

Father, how we long for you to come back home 

How we long for you to wake up from your spiritual slumber 

 

How we long for your spiritual guidance and leadership 

 

How we long for you to rise up and be the man of God. You're meant to be 

 

Fathers your sons need you 

Fathers your daughters need you 

Fathers your wives need you 

Fathers your family needs you 

Fathers your community needs you 

 

O how we long to hear a new phrase in our generation 

The power of a praying father

The power of a praying husband 

 

God bless
