Prayers for Faithful Men

I noticed my mother had these verses underlined in 1 Chron. 9-12 in her Bible.

I thought the Words were a good description of men in my world who are endeavoring to be faithful leaders in a role they've never played before.

I wrote down the verses and I pray them for these men.

9:13-"...able men for the work of the service of the house of God..."

9:23-"...in charge of the gates of the house of the LORD."

10:11-"...valiant men."

12:8-"...trained for battle, faces like the face of a lion, swift as gazelles on the mountain."

12:32-35-"...have understanding of the times, to know what we should do; expert in war with all weapons of war, who can keep battle formation; stout-hearted men who can keep ranks..."

12:38-"...loyal hearts, of one mind."

Oh, Jesus. Help these men.
Increase in them who they already are.

Be their Very Great Reward.
Amen.
Amen.
