May Your loving kindnesses also come to me, O Lord,

Your salvation according to Your word;

So I will have an answer for him who reproaches me,

For I trust in Your word.

Psalm 119:41-42

Dan M. is filling in for Pastor Dan this week.

In Psalm 119, the author recognizes his total dependence on Scripture as the only infallible rule of faith and life. In verse 41″Thy salvation” explains exactly the meaning of “Thy loving kindnesses.” It is a word  that is closely associated  with God’s covenants. Deuteronomy 7:9, 2 Samuel 7:15, 22:51. Isaiah 16:5, “a throne will even …

“Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes, And I shall observe it to the end.
34 Give me understanding, that I may observe Your law
And keep it with all my heart.
35 Make me walk in the path of Your commandments,
For I delight in it.
36 Incline my heart to Your testimonies
And not to dishonest gain.
37 Turn away my eyes from looking at vanity,
And revive me in Your ways.
38 Establish Your word to Your servant,
As that which produces reverence for You.
39 Turn away my reproach which I dread,
For Your

“I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.”

2Timothy 4:1-3

Dan M. is filling in for Pastor Dan this week.

If you been following along with last week’s devotion, I was attempting to lay a foundation for our confidence in the Word of God. A confidence that our enemy is constantly trying to undermine. Someone might say “all that is fine but what is meant by …

“For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.”

Hebrews 4:12-13

Dan M. is filling in for Pastor Dan this week.

Last week we’ve looked at Scripture being effective in the life of a believer. Here I want to …

 “The law of the Lord is perfect restoring the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure making wise the simple; the precepts of the Lord are right rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure enlightening the eyes; the fear of the Lord is clean enduring forever; the judgments of the Lord are true they are righteous altogether. They are more desirable then gold, yes much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb. Moreover by them thy servant is warned; in keeping them there is great reward”

Psalm 19:7-11

I would like to look at three things from this text. 1. We can see the nature of scripture. 2. The function of scripture. 3. The result of scripture. 

3. The result, or effect of Scripture. Seeing as though God has spoken to men in his Word with an intent to function in the life …

2. The function of Scripture. As we have seen, the nature of scripture is divine being God breathed. This is the ground of its authority. This …

I would like to look at three things from this text. 1. We can see the nature of scripture. 2. The function of scripture. 3. The result of scripture. 

1.  The nature of scripture. The word “inspiration” is a compound word in the Greek literally translated “God-breathed.” It is the nature of Scripture as God …

Daily Devotion With Pastor Dan – August 24th, 2020

I am sitting down to write this devotion for tomorrow so that you all will get it early and I realize that I am thirsty. What I really want is a big glass of ice water. It seems that with all the hot weather that we have been getting that is the go-to drink. But, have you ever found yourself spiritually thirsty? Have you ever felt like a dry barren desert?

Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I …
