Exegesis
The prepositional phrase emprosthen tou patros hymon {ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ πατρὸς ὑμῶν | ém-pros-then tou pa-trós hy-môn} uses an improper preposition with a genitive to depict the sphere of God’s presence, further defined by tou en ouranois {τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς | tou en ou-ra-noîs} (‘who is in the heavens’) to distinguish the heavenly Father.
In context — Matthew 18:14
In the same way, it is not the will before your Father in the heavens that even one of these little ones should perish.
