Heavenly Father,
Thank you so much for your love for us. We know that you are all-powerful and faithful, and that we can trust you with anything and everything. We pray now that you would make your guiding hand known as we pray for this request of success in our role as a father. You made us to be fruitful and multiply, and have given us the blessing of procreation. One of the most fulfilling and rewarding aspects of life is the ability to help raise, train, and equip our children to be faithful and loving individuals, modeled after you and your perfect will. While there are always trying times as a parent, we know that as a father, we need to maintain discipline and focus at all times and be an effective, loving, and faithful shepherd to our family. We are called to be not just a father, but the spiritual head of the household, which is a truly high and important calling. We ask you now to be with us and help make us strong in you and your Word, modeling ourselves after you so we can thus model our children in the same manner. Give us strength and success in maintaining a close and intimate relationship with you, and thereby pass on your love and kindness to our entire family.
Thank you for being our perfect and gracious Father, for your promises to us, and for always completing the work you begin.
We pray this all in your holy name. Amen.
