(Isaiah 40:31)…..But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.
What do you think about this verse of Scripture? When you think about it there is actually a very difficult part to this verse. A certain action that is very hard to do for most, and certainly for myself. That is, to “wait” on the Lord. Yep, how about you? Is that difficult for you? Listen, I …

Pastor Dan Nickerson preaches from Psalm 106:6-48
(Revelation 2:1-7)…..“To the angel of the church of Ephesus write, ‘These things says He who holds the seven stars in His right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden lampstands: 2 “I know your works, your labor, your patience, and that you cannot bear those who are evil. And you have tested those who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars; 3 and you have persevered and have patience, and have labored for My name’s sake and have not become weary. …
(Acts 20:24)…..”But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
“None of these things move me.” Those are powerful words from Paul for sure because some believers are tempted to give up on their faith in God whenever the least thing seems to go wrong in their lives. The apostle Paul suffered many things: …

(Mark 4:37-40)…..And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. 38 But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?” 39 Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace,be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. 40 But He said to them, “Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no …
Ephesus is the only one of the seven churches of Revelation that we have the most information on, which is revealed in (Acts 18-20). Paul had first visited the city with “Priscilla” and “Aquilla,” and later “Apollos” arrives to preach the baptism of John and was then taught the correct gospel from “Priscilla” and “Aquilla.” Paul himself had great opportunity to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ there (1 Corinthians 16:8-9), so he taught for three months in their synagogue and when they did not believe its …
In our devotion today I would like to share a few things pertaining to the church before we begin reading about Jesus’ Revelation to the seven churches of this letter. If you hear the word “church,” what comes to your mind? Do you think of a building? Or maybe your thoughts are of a place to meet people, or a place to sing? Maybe when you think about “church” you think of how many hypocrites are there on any given day. Maybe you think it is a building full …
(Revelation 1:18)…..I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.
Have you ever walked through a cemetery and looked at the headstones, and what is written on each of them. It is amazing how old some of them can be. I often wonder if anybody even remembers them. For sure, after a few generations most, if not all of their history is forgotten in time. When we consider Jesus, history doesn’t forget Him. When all else is forgotten, …
Jesus, accomplished through one offering of Himself, what millions of Gallons of animal blood had never been able to do, nor would ever be able to do. That is, all the animal blood spilt through the sacrificial system that was set up by God for Israel, could never provide the righteousness required of God. Jesus paid the full redemption price for all those who would call on Him by faith (Hebrews 10:5-14) (Hebrews 9:11-14) (Hebrews 11:25-28).
Hallelujah! It is the blood of Jesus, and only the blood of …
