Prayers for Godly Friendships

Whether they're three, thirteen, thirty-three or full grown, our sons need godly influence in their lives.  This week, let's pray for the Lord to bring iron into our sons' lives...friends who will lead them to Him.



Day One:  Lord, keep our sons far from dishonest men who spread strife & whisperers who separate friends (Prov 16:28) 

Day Two:  Lord, may our sons love one another with brotherly affection, outdoing one another in showing honor (Rom 12:10) 

Day Three:  Lord, may our sons walk not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers (Psalm 1:1)

Day Four:  Lord, please bring friends to our sons who are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge & able to instruct 1 another (Rom 15:14)

Day Five:  Lord, may our sons look not only to their own interests, but also to the interests of others (Phil 2:4)

Day Six:  May our sons not be friends with the world, but friends with the living God (from James 4:4)

Day Seven:  Lord, bring iron to our sons...for as iron sharpens iron, one man sharpens another (Proverbs 27:17)
