(Romans 1:18-21)…..For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

God is a God of love, but at the same …

How good is God? How has He shown His goodness to you? Just how would you answer these two questions today? Of course, God is good, for that is what His word tells us.

(Psalm 106:1)…..Praise the Lord! Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.

fRead: (Exodus 34:6) (Psalm 31:19) (Psalm 52:1) (Psalm 65:4)

There are many people today who live their lives with little regard to the goodness of God. They are unaware of how gracious God has been and is willing …

(Philippians 4:2)….I implore (plead with) Euodia and I implore (plead with) Syntyche to be of the same mind (agree with each other) in the Lord. 

Paul is addressing a situation in the church where there was conflict. Euodia and Syntyche were two women in the church in Philippi that we don’t know very much about, except that they had labored with Paul in the gospel. We don’t even know what the conflict was about. But what we know is that conflict among Christians can be devastating to the spiritual life of …

We can look back over our lives and we can see that God has been faithful to us in everything. I hope that you realize that is true because it is. How do we know that is true? Because His word declares His faithfulness (Numbers 23:19) (Deuteronomy 32:4) (Psalm 33:4) (Isaiah 41:10)

God has certainly been faithful to us who are believers in Jesus Christ, who are His own purchased possession? Read: (1 John 1:9) (1 Corinthians 1:3-9) (Philippians 1:6) (2 Timothy 2:13). His faithfulness gives us a sense of …

In this passage of Scripture, we see the command given by the Psalmist to – “Give to the LORD glory and strength.” This is, of course, a continuing declaration of the Psalmist in (Psalm 96:5-6). God made the heavens, therefore honor and majesty are before Him. Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary. So, because He is to be feared, and greatly praised, there is an appeal here to GIVE to Him glory and strength and to join in the song of praise to Him (Psalm 96:1). Is this …

There is not enough time for the author of Hebrews to describe the faith of others in detail (Hebrews 11:32), but what the author of Hebrews does provide is seen in (Hebrews 11:32-38). Yet, through faith, normal people such as these…….

1. Subdued kingdoms (Joshua 12:7-24) (2 Samuel 5:4-25) (2 Samuel 8:1-14)

2. Worked righteousness (1 Samuel 12:4) (2 Samuel 8:15) (1 Kings 3:28)

3. Obtained promises (Joshua 21:43-45) (Joshua23:14)

4. Stopped the mouth of lions (Judges 14:6) (1 Samuel 17:34-37) (Daniel 6:21-22)

5. Quenched the violence of fire …

Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan – 8-7-2020

I was thinking this morning of just how fearful so many are with what is going on in the world today. I know for me, fear is possible if I take my eyes off the Lord and His Word for just a short time. I am constantly reminded by the Lord to stay in that sweet fellowship with Him so things like that don’t happen. I even have been reflecting a lot on the 91st Psalm and His protection over us, especially during these times. I heard a story once of a father …

(Ephesians 3:14-21)…..For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height – to know the …

We cannot come to know Jesus solely through another person’s acquaintance with Him. While we may initially learn about Jesus from others – we must come to know Him for ourselves. Like Paul – we must speak in the first person: “that I may know Him” – (Philippians 3:10).

1. It must be an affectionate knowledge

• If I know Him at all – I must love Him
• Indeed – I am accursed if I do not! – (1 Corinthians 16:22)
• We must love Him – (Matthew 22:37)

2. It

(Colossians 2:1-3)…..For I want you to know what a great conflict I have for you and those in Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh, that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

These treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden in the Father …
