the father’s heart
“For God so loved the world that
he gave his one and only Son, that
whoever believes in him shall not
perish but have eternal life”
John 3:16
That’s a lot of love. God loves us so
much. The sins of this world have
lead us to places we should not
be going, doing things we should
not be doing, and encouraging
us to say things we should not be
saying. But God’s love is so great
that no matter what the sin, He
sent His son to die for us so that we
can be forgiven and made whole.
Someone had to pay the price;
blood had to be given as a sacrifice.
“
God’s love
God sent Jesus, the only sinless
one, to be the payment for our
sins. He did this by giving His life as
a ransom for our sins.
is so great...
“
I
would like to take a few moments
to share with you about your
Father’s heart toward you. Yes,
I am referring to your Heavenly
Father.

CORPORATE PRAYER
FAITHFUL FATHERS
Father God, You are the LORD and there is none else, there is no God
beside You. We praise and thank You for Your great love and grace.
Because the fathers in the Body of Christ trust and delight in You, we
decree that they have the desires of their hearts. They always cast
their cares on You and know that no weapon formed against them
shall prosper. We declare that the glory of children is their fathers.
Fathers receive and obey instructions from the word of God and the
man of God. They recognize their position as leader and priest in
the home and serve as role models for their children. We decree
that fathers have great love for their families and manifest the love
of God to the world. We thank you for loving, faithful fathers. In
Jesus’ name. AMEN!!!
Scriptures to read: Isaiah 45:5, Proverbs 17:6 and Psalm 37:3-5

FAITH
CONFESSION
over my finances
Father in Jesus’ name, I thank
You that I am anointed to
prosper. My eyes are open to
see creative ways to increase
financially; my ears are open to
hear the best deals, and my heart
is pure so that You can channel
finances through me.
I am on the path of perpetual
increase, as I enter into my
wealthy place. Wealth and riches
are in my house. I declare I am
the righteousness of God. I have
sown my seed for supernatural
abundance and I live in a daily
expectation of increase.
Money comes to me; my nature
attracts money. The fear of
lack has been broken and has
no power over me. I hear my
Father’s voice. The voice of
intimidation and limitation I
choose not to follow. I am free
from debt; I am the lender and
not the borrower.
The wealth of the wicked is
being transferred to me and I
commit to establish the Kingdom
of God in the earth. I am ready
to distribute and my life is a
distribution channel for God’s
work in the earth.
I thank You Father, that daily You
are loading me with benefits.
I am anointed to prosper. I
am on Your mind because You
want to increase me more and
more. Abundance is Your will
for me because it pleases You
when I prosper. I call increase,
abundance, prosperity and
realized dreams to come to me
NOW in Jesus’ name and I will
never be broke another day in
my life!
Amen.

the fathers heart..
We have seen great fathers in
this world. The story of the father
who pushed, pulled, and carried
his son through a triathlon is a
great example. He swam 2.5 miles,
cycled 125 miles through hot lava
fields, and concluded by running
26.2 miles with his son. You see,
the prize.
he loved his handicapped son so
much. His son’s dream was to be in
this contest. The father’s heart was
to meet that need for and with his
son. No, they were not in first place
or even second place, but they did
finish just under the deadline. The
father ran the race with the son.
Their pastor certainly showed
the heart of a father for these
two young women as they were
held prisoners in Afghanistan. He
went overseas to help in any way
he could. I think he was there for
several weeks praying for them
and trying to assist the best way he
could. I was touched as I heard that
story. He showed a very big heart
for these two missionary women.
Our Heavenly Father is running the
race with us. We are all in a race.
If we have asked Jesus, God’s Son,
into our hearts and to forgive us our
sins, then we are pressing on to win
“I press toward the mark for the
prize of the high calling of God in
Christ Jesus” Philippians 3:14
I also was thinking about the pastor
of Dayna Curry and Heather Mercer.
God’s heart is so big for us. His love
is so awesome. He wants only what
is best for us. Our Father in heaven
has a very big heart for us. He cares,
wants us to be healed, cleansed
from our sins, in right relationship
with Him and others around us,
and on our way to heaven. He has a
wonderful place for us to go.
I pray that you can feel His heart of
love for you today -- the heart of a
true loving, gentle, and kind Father.
Can God change your life?
God has made it possible for you
to know Him and experience an
amazing change in your own life.
Discover how you can find peace
with God. You can also send us your
prayer requests.
