Father's Blessings

Who is a father?

A father is the Head of the family, he provides for the day to day needs of the family. A father is the male parent of a child.

We have various categories of fathers we need to acknowledge, they are; birth fathers, stepfathers, foster fathers, single fathers.

• BIRTH FATHER:

  A birth father is the father of a child when the child is born or we can say a birth father is the natural father of a child who has been adopted.

  We need to acknowledge them in other to get their prayers. They rode us into this world and it is our duty to honour them for our days to be long. No matter the hurt they might have done us, we need to let go in order to receive their blessings.

• STEP FATHER:

  A step father is the husband of one's parent when distinct from one's natural or legal father. Or a step father is the man who is married to someone's mother but who is not their real father.

  We need to also acknowledge step dads. Many children today would refuse to bring themselves to the authorities of their step fathers, saying they are not their birth fathers, this is very wrong. We have to respect and honour them as well.

• FOSTER FATHER

  A foster father is a man who looks after or brings up a child or children as a father in place of the natural or adoptive father.

  For being loving enough to accept us into thir homes as their's we need to acknowledge them. They might have not been the one who gave birth to us, but they have accepted us as theirs hence we need to credit them.

• SINGLE FATHER

  A single father is a father who has a dependent child or dependent children and who is widowed, divorced, or unmarried.

  This category of fathers are singlehandedly bearing the burden of the father and that of the money as well. They need to be praised and acknowledged.

Dads are indeed priceless. Are you obedient to your own dad?

Do as you will be done by, whatever you sow you will reap.

Treat your father's well, it's a sign of respect and they will gladly pray for you and bless you.

Even as we celebrate father's day worldwide. We need to know who serves as a father figure to us and endeavour we do all we can in order to get their blessings.

Who is your father?

Your father's prayers will push you to a valley of bountiful blessings and greatness.

The Bible in Genesis 27:30-40 made us understand that Isaac blessed his children in his old age and it was seen later that every prayers he made affected them in one way orvthe other.

Joseph also blessed his children Ephraim and Mannasseh when he was about to die.

But there are some things we need to do as children to get make our father's happy to the point of praying for us.

Some of those things are:

• Understand them: 

  Try to understand your father's feelings, he loved you even when you keep on crying whole night, make home a mess or keep shouting whole day. He loved you without any conditions. Sometimes he wants you to live life his own way but the reason behind it is to make your future and life safe and happy. Try to think in a matured way and from your father’s point of view.

• Show respect: 

  There is nothing wrong in showing respect to your father. It will only bring happiness to his face. Even if you don’t agree with his thinking, try to make him understand politely. Don’t use harsh words on him, which make him unhappy or feel hurt. Giving respect is best way to make anyone happy; it cannot be compared with any precious gift.

• Spend some time:

  Forget all the tips and stop worrying about how to make your father happy. Time is the answer to everything.

  For parent's, children’s are the best thing that can happen to them. If you will try to look into your parent's heart, you will understand that they feel lonely if you avoid them.

  As our parent's age grows, they start expecting more from their child. Thus, try to take some time for your parents. Take them to some family get together, picnic or just spend time with them at home.

• Remember their special events: Always celebrate father’s birthday or special events, it may be some achievements and celebrate it with lots of love. You can take them out for dinner, buy some gifts (which they want since long time) or just spend this special moment with them and make them realize that you care for them.

• Show gratitude:

  Your father has done a lot for you and that's why you are enjoying your life with proper education and job.

  Father's do so much but never expect anything in return, so why not to say a thank you to them occasionally and show gratitude by a card, flower or a hug?

  This will surely bring you close to them and bring memories which your parents can cherish forever.

But inasmuch as Our earthly fathers are an important source of our genetic growth, God is the ultimate source of our lives.

He knew us before we were conceived and formed us in the womb. He is the source of our existence. Heprovides for us. He corrects us. He loves us unconditionally.

Acknowledge God too today and your life will not remain the same again...

Happy father's to all fathers in the world.

We love your all.

To every potential dad here on this platform I love you all. Enjoy!!!
