Act like it

Pastor Dave emphasizes the importance of Father's Day and the need for honoring fathers in a culture that often overlooks them. He draws parallels between biblical figures, such as King David and his instructions to Solomon, highlighting that true strength comes from obedience to God's word. Pastor Dave encourages men to be vigilant and act like God-designed men, recognizing that their actions have generational consequences. Ultimately, he calls for men to trust in God, put on the armor of faith, and stand firm in their commitment to Christ for a fulfilling legacy.1 Kings 2:1-4 1 When the time drew near for David to die, he gave a charge to Solomon his son.2 “I am about to go the way of all the earth,” he said. “So be strong, act like a man, 3 and observe what the Lord your God requires: Walk in obedience to him, and keep his decrees and commands, his laws and regulations, as written in the Law of Moses. Do this so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go 4 and that the Lord may keep his promise to me: ‘If your descendants watch how they live, and if they walk faithfully before me with all their heart and soul, you will never fail to have a successor on the throne of Israel.’1 Corinthians 16:13-14 13 Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. 14 Let all that you do be done in love.Matthew 18:8-98 And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire. 9 And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into the hell of fire.
