7 Days of Prayer
​For Dads
June 17-23rd 

10 Encouraging Scriptures for Dads​

   
​    1. Don’t provoke your children (Ephesians 6:4)

    The alternative, the scripture suggests, is to raise them to be young people of faith.

    2. Be your child’s “First Teacher” (Proverbs 22:6)
    It’s our responsibility to “train up a child in the way he/she should go.” Not the school,
    not the government, but you—and that means dad.


    3. Dads need to exemplify a good life (2 Cor. 3: 2-3)
    Scripture teaches that who we are and how we live is like a “letter from God.” Our kids
    read  that letter, every day.


    4. Provide for your family (I Tim. 5: 8)
    This idea covers more than rent and food. As dads it’s our responsibility to make sure our
​    family’s needs are addressed across the board. No ducking out of this one.


    5. Good dads discipline their children (Proverbs 13: 24)
    The one who loves their children, scripture says, “is careful to discipline them.” This is
    also about proactive leadership in our homes.


    6. Dads spend time with their children, and it’s not empty time (Deut. 6: 6-9).
    The scriptures are clear that dads must engage their children in the kind of deep,
    heart-to-heart conversations that impart more than facts, but teach wisdom.
    Schedule some regular “conversational walks” with your children, one on one.
​    Family time that counts.


    7. Compassion is a “dad” characteristic
    As a father has compassion on his children,” Psalm 103:13 points out, “so the LORD has 
    compassion.”

  8. “Put your money where your mouth is”
  Well, not in those exact words. But James 1:22 instructs us to not only be “hearers” of God’s word, but “doers” also.

  9. Dads never give up on their kids
  The story of “The Prodigal Son” (Luke 15:20-24) is the story of a father who never gives up hope and is ready to receive his child back with open arms.
  We can discipline, we can hold accountable, but we must never give up.


  10. Dads pray for their children (1 Chronicles 29:19)
  King David prayed for his son, Solomon. Children who know without any doubt that their dads pray for them every day own a deep sense of love and
​  security.
