Every year many of us go to the doctor for a yearly physical. But when was the last time you have a spiritual physical? When is the last time you examined your heart and taken an inventory of your current spiritual condition?

This morning, we did just that. Pastor Justin asked us to examine our tongues this morning. Are you a master of yours? None of us truly are. But take this spiritual checkup this morning, and examine your own life.

See how the tongue poses one of the biggest threats and taming it is one of the biggest challenges.

Tonight we experienced a very special and tender service when our teens and Youth workers shared some of their testimonies from Youth Camp this past week. Listen as some of them share what God did in their lives and hearts while they were away.

Afterwards, Pastor Justin challenged the teens to keep the ember burning. It's easy to allow God to light a fire in your heart when you're at camp. The challenge is to fan that flame and stoke the fire once you get back home. But how? Pastor gives us three steps to take to keep that fire burning.

Pray that our teens face the challenge. Pray that they remember the things God did during camp when Satan attacks them back home.

Do you have children, grandchildren, a spouse, or just someone that you love who you would like to be protected from Satan's attacks? Before he lost everything, the Bible says that Job was protected. Satan wasn't able to penetrate the hedge around Job until he went to God for permission. But why was that? What did Job do to build that hedge?

We assume that God put that hedge in place by his own volition. But in reality, Job did something himself to start building that hedge of protection; he took his family to the altar and prayed the Blood over them each and every day!

Do you want to build a hedge of protection around your home, your family, your spouse, your children, your grandchildren? Pray the Blood of the Lamb over them!

Being a Father in today's world is a frightening responsibility. We raise kids in a worrisome world. We face Satan at every turn. He's every where we turn, trying to destroy our marriages, homes, families, and churches. It's a scary realization. Dads, we are the ones left to stand guard at the gate, because it's our job. And while it is one of the most frightening jobs, it can also be one of the most rewarding you can imagine.

Gentlemen, to put it frankly, it's time or man up! Take up your arms! This world, and our families, needs mighty men; men of courage who are willing to stare down the threats to our home and say "not on my watch!" Are you willing to take your role and responsibility seriously?

It’s time to rise up and answer the call that God has given to you! Where are you Mighty Men?!
