1 Chronicles 7 - Praying God's Word

 

Please read 1 Chronicles 7.

Meditate on verse 40a.

 

All these were the sons of Asher, heads

of the fathers' houses, choice and mighty

men of valor, heads of the princes.

 

“Mighty men of valor” is repeated six times in 1 Chronicles 7 (vs. 2, 5, 7, 9, 11, 40).  These were brave, strong, virtuous men—leaders of their families—ready to go to war if necessary (v. 11).  What a great chapter to pray over men!  Pray for God to make men valiant and courageous for Christ and their families.  Pray for God to grow up boys to become mighty men, leading their families in Godliness. 

 

Satan and the world want men to be weak and self-centered, instead of mighty men of God.  As a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7), pray 1 Chronicles 7:2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 23, and 40 over men and families.

 

“LORD, make this male generation

 mighty men of valor. 

Make ___________ and __________ chief men. 

 (Leaders in their homes, churches,

businesses, communities, etc.)

Make the men in our family

mighty men of valor.

Make ___________ the head of his household,

a mighty man of valor.

Make the men in this generation

heads of their households,

mighty men of valor.

Make these heads of households,

mighty men of valor

who are ready to go out with the army to war. 

Make them men of valor

who will spiritually go to war

 for the sake of their family.  LORD, please

do not let misfortune come upon ______________ and my house. 

Make all our sons heads of their houses,

choice and mighty men of valor, heads even of princes.

In Your name, Jesus~”
