GOD FEARING MEN

 Proverbs 9:10 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding."  Acts 10:1-2 Now there was a man at Caesarea named Cornelius, a centurion of what was called the Italian cohort, A devout man and one who feared God with all his household, and gave many gifts to the Jewish people and prayed to God continually.

A God-fearing man has discipline, and he walks in the ways of the Lord.  His family means the world to him, and he shows kindness to all people.  A God fearing man is peaceful, receives joy from giving to others and strives to serve God’s purpose.  He raises his children with love, the word of God, and he will deny himself to please his wife. A God fearing man is the same today, yesterday, and the tomorrow.  A man that pray without ceasing and study the Word of God daily, has favor with God.

We pray that we encounter a man that has the fear of the Lord in his heart.  Lord, a man that has goodness, kindness, and love for his family, friends, and enemies.  Father, we prayed for a man like Daniel, Job, and Cornelius, one who will be devout and walk in Your ways.  A man Lord, who has discipline and, will strive to keep Your commandments.  Father, we need God-fearing men that will allow You to be the head and not the tail, to be their riches, delight, wisdom, and be deeply rooted in Your Word. Father, we pray for more men to have Christ-like character, in Jesus name Amen.
