Watch Night Service



We had a wonderful time during our Watch Night Service. There was Food, Fellowship, Singing and Preaching! I cannot tell you every detail, I sure wish I could but I do not have the ability to do that in this medium!
Suffice it to say, We were in the presence of the Lord as the old year passed on and the New Year began!
Earlier in the month of December I was talking with my Pastor, Bro. Greg Banther, and was asking him what his plans were for the Watch Night Service. He told me that all he was sure of was the fact that he wanted us as a Church to be on our collective knees, in Prayer, as we entered 2010.
I am happy to say that we succeeded in meeting this goal! We spent all night praising and worshiping God. Preaching His wonderful, glorious message of the Gospel Truth of Salvation by placing our trust in the finished work of Jesus Christ.
After the Preaching was over we all gathered at the front of the Church and we closed out 2009 and entered 2010 at the Throne of Grace!
Oh how I wish that you could have spent that time with us. I know there are similar services that were held at the same time and for the same reason, however, I wish that ALL of us who are Christians could have gathered together in one place at the same time to kneel at the feet of Jesus Christ.
I know that today it is quite impossible for us all to be together in the same place, but I Thank God in Heaven that one day soon... and I DO believe that day is fast approaching us, We will ALL be together Praising God and Worshiping the Dear Lord Jesus, Honoring the Precious Holy Spirit of God. Together with the saints of God who have already passed over along with the angels in Heaven we WILL ALL SAY:
Revelation 5:12-13 "Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever."
What a Superb Day that is going to be!
Dear Heavenly Father,
Help us ALL to live each day as if this would be the day of your wondrous return! Please take us and use us for Your Honor and Glory. In Jesus worthy name, Amen.
Happy New Year!
Evangelist David J. Dunn

Hello again!

Well, I have done it again... I dropped off the edge of the world and have not put anything new on here since October. This does not in any way mean that I have been sleeping the entire time. With the Holidays coming and preaching in Jails, Prisons and Churches almost every week, I have been staying busy! God has been blessing us in many different ways. One of those ways is with souls being saved every week! Amen and Praise the Lord!
As of this time I do not yet have an accurate count of the total number of souls saved in 2009. I will be getting this figured out this week(Hopefully!!).
There have been many things that have happened over the last year, i will be placing something on here in the next few days that will sort of highlight what has taken place.
Please be in much prayer for this ministry, the wicked one would love nothing more than to get us to quit, or even more, to stop us completely! I do not want to give him any glory at all, and I know that I am a very small "Fish" in the sea of life and stopping me would be easy. Some people would say that there is no reason for him to even bother with me... I beg to differ! This year God has used us to personally lead more people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ than ever before in our entire life! The devil hates soul winners! The Bible tells us this in:
II Corinthians 2:11 "Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices."
The Lord says that we are to not be ignorant of the way the wicked one works... I believe that God meant what He said here... I am to not just assume that the old serpent will leave me alone to just allow me to keep on winning souls to Christ.
In Albert Barnes commentary on the Bible, he said this about the prince of this world and his wicked, evil devices.
"We know his plans, his thoughts, his cunning, his skill. We are not ignorant of the great number of stratagems which he is constantly using to injure us, and to destroy the souls of men. He (satan) is full of wiles; and Paul had had abundant occasion to be acquainted with the means which he had used to defeat his plans, and to destroy the church. The church, at all times, has been subjected to the influence of those wiles, as well as individual Christians And the church, therefore, as well as individual Christians, should be constantly on its guard against those snares."
Christian, I am asking you to please remember to lift us up to the Lord in prayer. 2009 was full of trials, tribulations as well as victories! We are expecting 2010 to be even more of the same kind of thing. We need God to intervene on our behalf in reaching the lost, encouraging Christians and putting a hedge of protection about us to keep us safe on the road as we travel, safety and provision in every area of this ministry.
We mentioned II Corinthians 2:11 before, well I want us to take a look at II Corinthians 2:14.
II Corinthians 2:14 "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place."
See in this verse God causeth us to triumph in Christ. What a precious Truth! If you and I will just ask God to do it, He tells us in His Word that He Will Do It!
Thank You for coming back to visit!
In His Highest Service,
Evangelist David J. Dunn
