A Father’s Legacy – Day 3

A Father's Legacy

Ever wondered if God’s timing was perfect? Ever wondered if God’s plan for you was good and for your good? Ever wondered if God’s calling might be connected to what He wants you to do today? Well, the reality that I am writing this post is God’s calling on me to start Be The Dads. Well, the reality that I started this new devotional that happens to be 9 days which means it will end on a specific day makes me believe yes. Options are on the table and which one leans more towards what God is calling me to do and to be and His plans and His purpose for His glory? So are you ready to meet with and live out your life with Jesus for His purpose and plans? Are you ready to meet with and live out your life with Jesus in order to “build a new and different life in Him“? Are you ready to meet with and live out your life with Jesus so that you will be able to transform into standing on the strongest foundation possible! What’s the plan? “Do not live without a strategy.” Let’s be the dads who are focused on each becoming “a legacy-minded man and will result in a life of lasting impact.


Today’s devotional gets us started with the following verse:


‘He must become greater; I must become less.” ‘

John 3:30

As we prepare for today and we consider God’s Word that never returns void, let’s consider what we are reading from John 3 today. Let’s be the dads who allow God to build us, to fill us, to grow us, to strengthen us, to help us, to overflow through us so that He can receive the praise, the honor, and the glory because of the good works we do. Let’s be the dads who make it less about us and more about God in the way we choose to live our lives so that we can leave our wives, our kids, and our world with a legacy that points them to our Heavenly Father! Let’s be the dads who invite the Holy Spirit to clean house in our hearts and minds and fill us with God’s will and God’s way so that we can overflow into the world around us! Let’s be the dads who pursue Jesus in all that we do so that people see Jesus with skin on and glorify our Father in heaven because of the way we are choosing to live our lives! Let’s be the dads who choose to live our lives to show more of God and less of ourselves! John 3 is so powerful and closes with the following reminder:

‘Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them.’

John 3:36

So let’s be the dads who make a difference by allowing Jesus to work in and through us today!
