Welcome to "Let's Ask Dad"

A place to find wit, wisdom, random thoughts and positive encouragement.

Joshua 5My current study….It’s cool how God dried up the waters and allowed the Israelites to cross over on dry land just like he parted the Red Sea! Even cooler…The kings, who believed they could conquer the Israelites, were broken when they heard about God doing this great miracle. It says, “their hearts melted.” They […]

Words! Who’s using you and your words to influence others? Life and death are in the power of the tongue! Speaking life means being bold enough to call wrong wrong!We aren’t called to be “happy,” we are called to be “holy!” Happiness is a choice! Holiness is a lifestyle! It doesn’t mean God doesn’t want […]

Reading is crucial to success! We should always push ourselves to read good books to help expand our minds. Being a good reader helps us to decipher information, communicate better, and become critical thinkers. Children should be encouraged to read good books that are on their reading levels, a little above those levels, and of […]

“Gentlemen, I know that you love your families. You love your wife. You love your children. You would be willing to die for them. In most wars, that’s what men are asked to do… But in this war, it’s different. In this war, Jesus Christ is looking for men who will live for their families.” […]

Don’t let others cause you to panic or become fearful. We know that these may seem like uncertain times, but we serve a certain God! “For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.”‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1:7‬

The throne is for God; that is where He rules and reigns. The altar is for us; that is where we find cleansing and purging from sin. We should never confuse the two! #LetsAskDad #EnduringWord

Paralyzed by fear, pain, heartache or a multitude of other symptoms causes us to doubt and become immobilized in our lives. We often become incapacitated due to our hopelessness. Maybe it’s because we are trying to protect ourselves from being wounded deeper, or we have begun to wonder if God even hears our cries and […]

Psalm 90:12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom! Time is a commodity that we’ve only been allotted. How we use it, waste it, or risk losing it with those we love is completely up to us. I’m not sure we can ever make up lost time unless […]
