IS THERE A FATHER IN THE HOUSE? #46/ THE SUNDAY NIGHT BLESSING WITH DR GEORGE WATKINS

Is there a father in the house?
A statement was made that caught my eye this past week. It was from a prominent man that I have confidence that he knows his business and the society we live in.
He said the central problem in the United States and possibly other Western nations is the absence of fathers in the home. When the presence and influence of a father are missing from the home, the children are affected in so many different ways.
A survey of the prison population will tell you that a vast percentage of the men in prison for crimes they have committed had no father influence in their life. There is something about the hand of the father on a child that not only gives them guidance for life but also puts a governor on childhood rebellion.
I am keenly aware of the single-parent situation in our nation, especially for mothers raising their children alone. We pray for our single mothers; we love them and support them in every way we can. 
But the pattern that God made is male and female, which makes the family unit. 
Change the law, pervert society, ignore the principles of God, and all you get is chaos and trouble. As someone said, you can put a rat in a cookie jar that doesn't make him a cookie.
So what's the answer?
We need the spirit of fatherhood to return to our society and our churches. God has a way of restoration; He knows how to bring back what was lost. 
If you're a father, ask God to make you the best one you could ever be. Ask for wisdom every day on all the little things you do to raise your children.
If you are a pastor, male or female, you have the father position in the house. You have the steady hand and the wise answer that gives peace to the children. You are not lord and master; you are filling the place God gave you, representing the fatherhood of God Himself.
Just because God is our Father doesn't make Him a dictator because pure love always makes way for healing and success.
Is there a father in the house? I say yes, and I call them to rise and be what God has called you to be.
