God Made Man: Discovering Your Purpose

DAY 17 OF 31

However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband. 
Ephesians 5:33

Dear Father,

I pray for our brothers who suffer from the three I's. Brothers like to deal in areas of being respected, and capable, but to suddenly find ourselves Invisible, Irrelevant, or Isolated terrifies us. 

Father, this usually happens because our shame or hurt causes us to avoid other people. Even family and friends. Lord, this also causes our brothers to avoid You. Men speak and respond to terms of respect, so I pray our brothers will know they are respected when they stand for You. 

They may fear being outcasts among their current friends, but eternally, these aren't the friends our brothers need in their lives right now. Lord, I pray for strength and boldness for our brothers who are suffering from one or all three of the I's - Invisible, Irrelevant, or Isolated. I pray they turn to You to be Seen, Substantial, and Surrounded.

In the precious name of Jesus, we pray, Amen
