I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. … 1 John 2:13
Godly fathers know the eternal God, the Creator of the world, the loving Father who sent His only begotten Son into the world to save His created beings from their sins.
Godly fathers possess an anointing from God and know the truth, 1 John 2:20-21. For Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. He is the way to our heavenly Father John 14:6.
Godly fathers teach their children about their heavenly Father Psalm 78:3.
O God, we have heard with our ears,
Our fathers have told us
The work that You did in their days,
In the days of old. Psalm 44:1
Godly fathers bless their sons, and their sons glory in them, and the fathers’ grandchildren are their crowns Proverbs 17:6.
My prayer
Our Loving Heavenly Father, thank You for blessing us with fathers who reflect Your great and sacrificial love for their children. On this day when we take time to appreciate our earthly fathers, may we remember that our fathers who follow You, know You intimately, that they understand that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, that they possess Your anointing, and that they have taught us about You. Heavenly Father, we glorify You and magnify You. We thank You for earthly fathers who point us to You. Bless our fathers abundantly. Thank You, Abba, for Your great love. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
