Hello family in Christ, After hearing some of brother Dayton’s testimony, we decided to ask Dayton to share in a video, and he gladly accepted.
So we introduce to you, brother in Christ and fellow evangelist, Dayton Davis from New Plymouth.
God has blessed Dayton with a mini music studio at home and through the Holy Spirit, he writes music to sing on the street.
1 Peter 4:10-11 As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
We are very encouraged to hear brother Dayton using the gifts God has given him, for the Kingdom of Heaven. He knows people need Jesus and is actively sharing the good news and doing the word.
1 Corinthians 12:4-6. There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.
James 1:22. But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
In doing so, he is storing up treasures in Heaven, praise God and glory to Jesus.
Mathew 6:19-21 NKJ. Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
What are you doing for Jesus ?
Have you got your light up on the lamp stand for everyone to see ?
Is your lamp filled with oil ? ( Holy Spirit )
When you pass from this wold, what treasure have you stored up?
Have you stored up worthless earthly treasure for yourself, that has no value in the Kingdom of Heaven ?
Or are you obedient to the Lord’s leading, to use your gifts and talents, for His glory ?
We know that God does not wish that any should perish, but they perish due to lack of knowledge.
True wealth is the things we do for Jesus, or in other words, the works He does through a surrendered vessel. (reaching out to those in need or lost )
We already have received our inheritance and invitation to the wedding feast. Many have been invited, but were not willing to come.
The King of Kings sends us, His servants, out to the highways, to fill the wedding hall.
Will you go if He sends you ?
Or more importantly, will you be going to the wedding feast and do you have the correct wedding garment on ?
Mathew 22:1-14 And Jesus answered and spoke to them again by parables and said: “The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who arranged a marriage for his son, and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they were not willing to come.
Again, he sent out other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, “See, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fatted cattle are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding.” ’ But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his business. And the rest seized his servants, treated them spitefully, and killed them.
But when the king heard about it, he was furious. And he sent out his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy.
Therefore go into the highways, and as many as you find, invite to the wedding.’ So those servants went out into the highways and gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good. And the wedding hall was filled with guests.
“But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment. So he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here without a wedding garment?’ And he was speechless.
Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
“For many are called, but few are chosen.”
May the fruit of your branch, connected to Jesus, produce a mighty yield for the Kingdom of Heaven.
John 15:5-6. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can donothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.
God bless you all, We hope, this blog, lead by the Holy Spirit, has encouraged and edified you, in your walk with Jesus.
With love from your brother in Christ.

New Plymouth is the major city of the Taranaki region on the west coast of the North Island of New Zealand. It is named after the English city of Plymouth, in Devon, from where the first English settlers to New Plymouth migrated. The New Plymouth District, which includes New Plymouth City and several smaller towns, is the 10th largest district (out of 67) in New Zealand, and has a population of 90,100 – about two-thirds of the total population of the Taranaki region and 1.7% of New Zealand’s population. This includes New Plymouth City (60,200), Waitara (7,720), Inglewood (3,970), Ōakura (1,780), Ōkato (561) and Urenui (429).[2]
The city itself is a service centre for the region’s principal economic activities, including intensive pastoral activities (mainly dairy farming) as well as oil, natural gas and petrochemical exploration and production. It is also the region’s financial centre as the home of the TSB Bank (formerly the Taranaki Savings Bank), the largest of the remaining non-government New Zealand-owned banks.
Notable features are the botanic garden (i.e. Pukekura Park), the critically acclaimed Len Lye Centre and Art Gallery, the 13 km (8.1 mi) New Plymouth Coastal Walkway alongside the Tasman Sea, the Len Lye-designed 45-metre-tall (148 ft) artwork known as the Wind Wand, Paritutu Rock, and views of Mount Taranaki.
New Plymouth was awarded the most liveable city (for a population between 75,000–150,000) by the International Awards for Liveable Communities in 2021. In 2023, New Plymouth was awarded New Zealand’s most beautiful small city by Keep New Zealand Beautiful.[3] It also won multiple awards in 2008. The city was in 2010 chosen as one of two walking & cycling “Model Communities” by the government. Based on New Plymouth’s already positive attitude towards cyclists and pedestrians, the city received $3.71m to invest into infrastructure and community programmes to boost walking and cycling.[4]
