Beloved of All
Father, I thank You for my earthly Dad, that he lead me in prayer to “receive Jesus so I go to heaven if I die.” He's getting old now at ###. I don’t know why he never really studied Bible on his own, I guess because of a misreading of the doctrine of "eternal security," but it makes his opinions and advice like trying to extract something solid from liquid broth. I've been praying for ### years for him to read the Bible. He went to a secular psych for a decade against my opinion that he'd see a Christian Counselor. Attends church, in one ear out the other... BUT I ASK AGAIN, Please have mercy on him and give him wisdom and revelation, (Eph 1:17). Please help him stop trying to justify himself and stop worshiping the idea of a self-made man. Help his mind stop going in circles to justify actions he should confess as sin. May he watch Christian Programming instead of the news and old movies 24/7, give him spiritual hunger for The Word, (1 Peter 2:2), help him be a doer of the Word, not a hearer only, (Jam 1:22). Lord, grant his wife wisdom, since what she has is actually better now than his. Protect them from her unbelief and worry, let neither one of them be conformed to the world but rather be transformed by the renewing of their minds, (Rom 12:2), wash them with The Water of The Word, (Eph 5:26), and keep them from the evil one, (Matt 6:13, John 17:15). I specifically ask You strengthen them and protect them from evil people, for not all have faith, and again, guard them from the evil one, (2 Thes 3:2-3), in Jesus Name.
