Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan – August 3rd, 2020

One thing I know is that I am folically challenged. Yep, I am bald. Well not completely, I just shave my head because there is not enough hair to worry about. The great thing about that is that it is easy for God to keep track of the hairs on my head. So why should I fear right?

(Luke 12:7)…..But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

The point is not that God spends all His time …

Studying the Bible is one of the most important things we should do daily as disciples of Jesus Christ. It is amazing that we can know so much information and statistics on sports, movies, news, etc. and yet not know much about Scripture. Just think of the time our culture spends on social media compared to our time in the Word of God. Think about our busy lives, that most of the time works against us having any quality time in Scripture

(2 Timothy 2:15)…..Be diligent to present yourself approved to …

Habakkuk was a contemporary of Jeremiah and was written probably between 609 and 605 BC – a time of major upheaval. Assyria, the major world power that had destroyed the northern kingdom of Israel about one hundred years previously had fallen, and the Babylonians (Chaldean’s) were beginning to look threatening. The southern kingdom of Judah has had a mixture of good and bad kings, and are now filled with corruption. Writing fifteen to twenty years before Habakkuk in about 625 BC, Jeremiah assesses the state of his country (Jeremiah 5:26-29). …

Does God really care about me? – Does God really understand what I am going through in my life? – Is God really there? – Can I really trust Him? These are questions we might hear in today’s world from people who are looking for help and hope. There are many things in this world which people put their trust in or get their security from, the sad thing is that most, if not all, of what the world derives their trust and security from will fail them. As a child …

(1 Samuel 13:13-14)…..And Samuel said to Saul, “You have done foolishly. You have not kept the commandment of the Lord your God, which He commanded you. For now, the Lord would have established your kingdom over Israel forever. But now your kingdom shall not continue. The Lord has sought for Himself a man after His own heart, and the Lord has commanded him to be commander over His people because you have not kept what the Lord commanded you.”

In Paul’s sermon at Antioch, in which he briefly recounts the history of …

(Matthew 7:21-23)…..“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

This verse out of Matthew’s Gospel has always been one of the most fearful verses to me as I have studied the Scriptures through the …

There is a Bible verse that most everyone knows or has at least heard it some time in their life. Yes, you guessed it, it is (John 3:16). This morning I just want to break down this verse a little bit.

John 3:16 – For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

GOD SO LOVED – The word “so” often denotes intensity. For instance, a man may say to his wife, “I love you sooooo much,” as he wishes to express the measure …

I have been looking at Paul’s life all week, and the things that he tells the believers in Galatia about the gospel and the state of his old nature as he lives for Christ. That he has been crucified with Christ. Just look how Paul says this in…..

(Galatians 2:20)…..I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave …
