A Father, like our Father

Blessed Father’s Day! From the Holy Ghost Impartation Ministries family to all amazing dads who are emulating God the Father through our Lord Jesus Christ. As I meditated on our heavenly Father, here are the amazing Characteristics I found in Him which every godly father must have. Just to mention but a few.

  • A father loves 1 John 3:1, John 3:16
  • A father is faithful. 2 Timothy 2:13
  • A father keeps his word. Psalm 138:2
  • A father protects. Psalm 91, John 10:28-30, Matthew 26:53
  • A father provides discipline and wise council. Prov. 3:11-12
  • A father rewards his children. Matthew 6:6
  • A father provides leadership and direction. Psalm 119:105, Psalm 23
  • A father has compassion. Psalm 103:13
  • A father gives gifts. James 1:17
  • A Father cares. Matthew 10:29-31
  • A father is generous. Romans 8:32
  • A Father is merciful. Luke 6:36
  • A father has great plans for his children. Jeremiah 29:11
  • A father delights over his children. Zephaniah 3:17
  • A father thinks great thoughts about his children Psalm 139:17-18
  • A father vindicates his children. Psalm 37:6-8

Being a man is one thing, but playing the role of a father is another. Not every man is a father, but every father is a man. Do you have the characteristics of a father? Are you a father in the likeness of our heavenly Father?

Blessed Father’s Day!

In Christ’s love,
