“The Lord Watches!”
“Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain” (Ps 127:1). ♥️🙏🏾
Fathers are watchmen over their homes. Scripture reminds us, “For I have chosen [them]... to direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord..." (Gen 18:19).
The deep and abiding presence of the Lord in an earthly father’s life makes him boldly declare, “…as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord” (Jos 24:15).
The Prayer:
Fathers are God’s watchmen. I pray today that they never forget the “exceeding greatness of God’s power” (Eph 1:19) and the limitless love and strength that they have access to.
