That God created us to be and that our kids, family, and the world needs us to be.
It’s the start of a new week and we finished the last day of our previous devotional yesterday. So I did another search for dads in the YouVersion Bible app to see what devotionals I could find. This one jumped out at me for a few reasons including how an encounter with Jesus, no matter…
Give thanks to God for today and choose to make the most of it. Firstly, do make time to be with God? Secondly, do you make time to be with and go and do something with your wife? Thirdly, how about your kids? Finally, are you prioritizing how you live your life right? Give thanks…
Protecting our minds and those of our loved ones should be a priority. As a kid, I remember not having to wear a helmet; nowadays it’s a requirement. I also remember how seatbelts weren’t required for a time either, yet they are a requirement too. So if we consider how important our brains are to…
Priorities! To fulfill the role of the dads God created, planned, and proposed for us, we need to prioritize correctly!! I know I’ve shared the need to put first things first so that everything else can take care of itself. When we ignore this truth we find ourselves with health issues in our bodies, marriages,…
Humility has its benefits. Firstly we know that God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble. Secondly, pride brings a person low, but the lowly in spirit gains honor. Thirdly, the reward for humility and fear of the Lord is riches, honor, and life. Therefore, humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will…
I woke up this morning with the thought of how important it is to pray for others. Yes, we are to pray without ceasing but we don’t have to talk to God only about ourselves. Let’s be the dads who pray for our wives! Let’s be the dads who pray for our kids! Let’s be…
Today, let’s make the way we get started,let’s lean into God in prayer and petition, reading His Word and worshipping Him. Let’s stop leaning on our own understanding and start trusting God and choosing to do things His Way as we acknowledge Him, know that He will show us the path to take. We need…
Do you know the roles and responsibilities that speak to the meaning of being a dad? Do you realize the importance of being a dad? Have you ever considered the calling on your life to be a dad? As we step into today let’s realize that we’ve been put into a position that is important…
God is the God of love! We see that He loved us so much that He gave generously, He gave sacrificially, He gave unconditionally, His one and only Son that whosoever would believe in Him would not perish but have everlasting life. God calls us to love our neighbors as ourselves! God calls us to…
Yesterday’s takeaway was about the dangers of pride, titled “Help yourself to everything“! I found a devotional that was a bit longer and that sounded powerful as a message so that it could help us learn and become the dads God created and purposed for us to be. So I chose “Just For Dads: Be…
Active faith? Ever heard that faith without works is dead? We aren’t saved by works because we are saved by grace through faith in Jesus! Therefore, works are the overflow and outcome of our active faith! Firstly, are you living a life with active faith or passive faith? Secondly, we are called to have an…
Your life matters! In the tapestry of existence, our lives are woven with threads of purpose and divine significance. Every step we take, every word we speak, has the potential to echo beyond the confines of our personal experience, shaping the narratives of those who witness our journey. “Ignite Souls: Your Life, Their Eternal Testament”…
Where are you today, is it time for a reset? Are you walking with God or apart from God? Do you realize it? Are you ready to turn back to God and have a reset? How long would it take you to discover where you are and that you need to turn back and return…
As we continue this year the next plan I have selected to go through is “Finding Dad” which is a 7-day devotional from the Bible.com site by Luke Cunningham and published by The Ark Church. It caught my attention as I was looking for my next dad related devotional because it says in the introductory…
As I wake up this morning, the day when daylight savings ends and realize that darkness will be present more. It reinforces the need to let your light shine! Even with the extra hour from daylight saving time, it’s mostly just an extra hour of sleep for most of us. I’ve often thought about how…
