Resources
You may wish to bring a toolbox with all the items below as
object lessons for this teaching idea.
What to Do
Many fathers have a toolbox. Inside the toolbox you will find
many tools. And some of the tools in the toolbox make good
metaphors for what a Father does.
In a tool box you find many different types of tools. Tools for:
Measuring: A measuring tape, a ruler Gods Word, as taught by
fathers become the standard by which we measure right and
wrong.Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as
symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. TEACH
THEM TO YOUR CHILDREN, talking about them when you sit at home
and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you
get up.
Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your

gates, so that your days and the days of your children may
be many in the land the Lord swore to give your ancestors,
as many as the days that the heavens are above the
earth. Proverbs 11:18-21Honor your father and your
mother, so that you may live LONG in the land the Lord your
God is giving you. Exodus 20:12
Aligning: Square, A level, A Plumbline Commands and teaching

of our parents guide us to living the straight and narrow way.My
son, keep your fathers command and do not forsake your
mothers teaching. Bind them always on your heart; fasten them
around your neck. When you walk, they will GUIDE you; when you
sleep, they will watch over you; when you awake, they will speak
to you. For this command is a lamp, this teaching is a light, and
correction and instruction are the way to life Proverbs 6:20-23
Connecting: Stapler, Hammer, Screwdriver, Duct tape

Fathers strive to connect us with God and to live right with
others.From one man He made every nation of men, that
they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined the
times set for them and the exact places where they should
live. God did this so that men would seek Him and perhaps
reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from
each one of us. Acts 17:26-27
Cutting: Saw, Knife, Plyers Fathers teach us the words of

GodFor the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any
double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and
spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of
the heart. Hebrews 4:12
Tightening / turning: Wrench, a spanner, a clamp, Plyers
Fathers seek to turn our attention to God, just as our heavenly
Father turns our attention to our Fathers.
He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the
hearts of the children to their fathers - Malachi 4:6
Shaping: Chisel, Sandpaper, files Fathers shape our character
and our values through their examples, through discipline, and
through training. As iron sharpens iron, so one person
sharpens another. Proverbs 27:17
Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For

what son is not disciplined by his father? Hebrews 12:7
My son, do not despise the LORDs discipline and do not
resent his rebuke, because the LORD disciplines those he loves,
as a father the son he delights in. Proverbs 3:11-12
Summary
In summary, our fathers are like tools, building each of us
into the person that God intended. They gives us examples
and truths so that we can not only measure our lives, but
we can align them to Gods purpose and truth. They
connect us to God and others. As they instill the word of
God in our lives and discipline us, the truth cuts, shapes
and sharpens us to be more effective children of God.
Theres a great passage on the role of fathers in 1 Thessalonians 2:11-12

For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his
own children, encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives
worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.
ENCOURAGING, COMFORTING, AND URGING THEM TO LIVE LIVES
WORTHY OF GOD, WHO CALLS THEM INTO HIS KINGDOM AND GLORY.
Scripture References
Heres some more scriptures on Fathers:
Listen, my sons, to a fathers instruction; pay attention and gain

understanding.

Listen to your father, who gave you life, and do not despise your mother

insight as well. The father of a righteous child has great joy; a man who
fathers a wise son rejoices in him.
- Proverbs 23:22-24
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor
your father and mother which is the first commandment with a
promise so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy
long life on the earth. Fathers, do not exasperate your children;
instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.

Lord.

Take It to the Next Level

Each one of us has different experiences with our father. Some
of us have been blessed with a godly father and we need to
thank Him for that gift. But the Bible is also full of fathers that
were less than perfect. If your experience with your father has
been difficult you can find peace and comfort from God the
Father. As Christians we all celebrate Fathers Day knowing that
we have become a child of the everlasting heavenly Father who
is perfect in compassion, strength, and care in every way.
