I have decided to unplug.

I am stepping down from the computer chair that I sit upon and I will be disconnecting fully to fully connect with God for an undisclosed amount of time. I am fully aware that God has so graciously blessed me with followers who love to fill up my ask box with questions and prayer requests but I have closed it down until further notice. There are people who are willing to talk with you all and...

On of the dudes i used to roll with

back in the day is now dead. he was known as “Motor” and he called me his “lil protege” (which was my exactly my association with him). I learned a lot from him: how to scope out houses/stores for theft and burglary, how to lookout, how to shake dudes down, how to fight, etc. and i just found out he is now dead. Praise God for better plans for my life and taking me out of...

anchorsinreverse asked: I hope this message doesn't come off as creepy but let me just say that its really encouraging (as a girl) to see a guy as sold out for God as you are because most of the Christians I know in real life who are really following jesus are girls.

Keep making awesome post! That is all.

One thing i want to make clear:

Christianity is not about what we can and can not do, laws and regulations to hinder us, but Christianity sets us free and when we choose a relationship with Christ, we choose not to do things that displeases him. One of the biggest misconceptions is that once we become spiritual/religious, we can’t have fun and thats why many teens rebel now; they want to “do me” now and go to...

denyselfandfollowchrist asked: i read your answer to the question about alcohol, and i have to disagree.
the bible says that drinking any alcohol is a sin.
yes, Jesus did turn water into wine. but in one of the original translations of the bible, there were two main words for wine. oinos(or yayin) and sikera(or shekar) were the two different types. oinos was basically straight up grape juice with a slight...

Thanks for the encouragement on the last video. I am glad that God used me to encourage you! I wasn’t planning on making another one today but i really wanted to share another verse with you all that spoke to me so look for that within the next hour and i pray that God speaks to you through it! It’s uploading to youtube now and once done, i will post it on here for whoever is...

Thanks for choosing to keep me alive today and i pray that you were magnified and glorified. If not, and you decide to wake me up tomorrow morning, place in my heart a more clear cut way to live for you and another opportunity to give you all the glory and show people how great you are and how much we are dependant on you whether we realize it or not. Thank you, Lord, for the air in my lungs....

Anonymous asked: This is Female Anon #1 struggling with sexual sins. First off, I can't believe how much response my message got. It is so comforting to know that I am not alone. That I am not the only Christian girl stuggling. Second, thank you, Dan, for putting up the prayer list. I've prayed through it. Female Anons #2-14, let's pray for each other, girls. We can and will overcome this. I believe...

leannekay asked: I just want to say that I've been following all these prayer requests, etc. today, and I am praying fervently for all involved.
To all the girls struggling with sexual sin, it's funny that we can freely approach males about it, but find it so much harder to talk with our sisters on such topics.
I want to offer my services as a sister-in-Christ who has struggled with...

Anonymous asked: any advice about dating as a Christian

Anonymous asked: Please pray for me. I am a female who have been dealing with this for 10 yrs now. It's identity crisis. I am a Christian and a firm believer of faith. I am also on fire for God. I never questioned Him why i feel like i have to be with a woman. I am fighting the feeling of falling in love with the same sex. I guess i would call myself a bisexual since i still like guys. But i do see more of...

anjel-ic asked: Dear man of God,

I pray right now that all the anointing you have poured out tonight into your hurting followers be poured back into your spirit twofold. I decree and declare that blessings be poured upon your life for taking on such a hardship as a spiritual guide, mentor, and intercessor for all these suffering individuals who want only to know and be closer to our Lord and...

Anonymous asked: I have some male Christian friends who are struggling with homosexuality at the moment. One in particular, cannot see how God can free him from it, but they are all so on fire for God, and want Him to be completely sovereign. Can you pray that God would transform their hearts and open their eyes to the freedom that is available for them?

Bless you brother!

deathinhisgrave asked: Hey Dan,

I've noticed the outpouring of people asking for prayer about the strongholds of sin in their life on your blog tonight. I just thought if you could post this as well it might be able to help them out.

To all: I highly suggest reading Romans 7:14-25 and right on through chapter 8 (If you don't have a bible you can read at www.biblegateway.com I...

These are most of the people who messaged me with requests of prayer and intercession on their behalf. Please pray and call on God for deliverance, healing and his guidance through each individual!

Anonymous asked: is masturbation a sin?

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

Anonymous asked: I suppose I'll add myself to your list... I've been raised in church all my life and I love Jesus so much... My boyfriend does too, but he's wasn't a virgin when I met him and he lets himself slip- so I slip with him. I used to never think about sex but now I do. I haven't had sex with him, but everything else. I started masturbating, too :/ I just don't know what to...
