For Guys to Find Community
Lord God,
Connecting with other guys doesn’t always come very naturally for men. Many struggle when they live isolated lives and have very limited interaction with other guys. When that is the case, not only do we often limit our potential, but we also leave ourselves susceptible to making poor choices that lead to questionable or regrettable behavior. Of course, keeping the wrong company can also bring about the same damaging effects. Therefore, please provide positive opportunities and experiences for guys to find community with like-minded, godly, spiritually mature men. Lead them to want to be led and to have the courage to lead others, and through that leadership, heighten the level of respect shared among brothers. When those relationships exist, rich blessings will follow as men encourage, admonish, challenge, and support each other in powerful ways. Through all of this, raise up more men to bring greater glory to you through their righteous living.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
