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 …

Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan – August 6th, 2020

(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

Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan – August 4th, 2020

(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 …

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 …

Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan – July 31st, 2020

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 …

Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan – July 30th, 2020

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). …

Morning Devotions With Pastor Dan – July 29th, 2020.

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.”

(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 …
