A Prayer for Father on Father’s Day
(inspired by Psalm 23)
Father,
Provide for
this man everything he needs,
for his
spirit, soul, body, finances, and relationships.
Give him
rest today;
rejuvenate
him and give him the recreation that revives his life
and
prepares him for the work ahead.
Renew his
strength;
give him
health and keep him fit for his work and his service.
Give him
the wisdom and guidance he needs
to make
decisions that will profit his soul.
Provide
discernment.
When he
faces challenges,
may he know
that he doesn’t face them alone.
Give him
courage as he walks through the tough times,
knowing
that you are right there with him,
protecting
him and defending him.
Bless him
with the desires of his heart,
giving him
joy and abundant provision.
Anoint him
for the work you have given him to do,
and let him
experience honor and respect in all his relationships.
Give him
complete joy today,
opening his
eyes to the many blessings you have given him.
May these
blessings chase him down every day of his life.
May eternal
life be his and may he taste Heaven on earth.
