I welcome you to the last day in the month of May 2024, which prophetically means the month of grace. I pray that the grace of God which makes all things that pertains to life and godliness will be available to every one of us now and beyond, in Jesus name. Amen.
Over the next three days, we shall be looking into the word of God to discover the incredible power of prayers for our assignments as the man, husband and father. This means that we shall be focusing on three areas that will empower the husbandman to flourish as the good and godly man, husband and father.
Men ought to always pray and not faint….(Lk.18:1)
Today, the prayer focus is on the man and what he must desire on the altar of prayer as the man.
Your prayer as the man is to empower you to have a genuine relationship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ. As the man, your first priority on your prayer list is how to have a holy fellowship with God, where you love Him with the whole of your heart, mind, soul and body. Just like the first man, Adam, in the Garden of Eden, God wants to commune with you. He wants you to have a personal relationship with Him (Jn.3:4-8, Jn.3:16-17).
But why is this prayer important to me as the man?
Praying for yourself as the man helps you to discover the plans and purposes of God for your life and empowers you to live a holy life which guarantees you a place in heaven with Jesus Christ (Rev.3:20). Secondly, praying for yourself as the man empowers you to overcome the tendencies of the flesh (Matt.26:41). Thirdly, praying the will of God for yourself as the man empowers you to continue to think, act and do what is true, lovely, honest and of good report (Ps.1:1-3, Philp.4:8).
Therefore, search the Scriptures and pray for the empowerment of the Holy Ghost to rest upon you so that you can live a holy life, enjoy sweet fellowship with God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit daily, a healthy life, a life of dominion over sin and a productive life.
If you do not want to faint as the man, pray without ceasing (Lk.18:1).

FAITH CONFESSION
I am made in the image and likeness of God and I take responsibility to seek fellowship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ and to always do His perfect will as the man because that is what makes me the good and godly husbandman in Jesus name. Amen.
