     | 1,549 views

    What a privilege to be the chosen people of the LORD.

    THE ARRIVAL AT SINAI. Exodus 19:2-8a. EXODUS 19:1-2. The first thing which the children of Israel were expected to do after escaping from Egypt was to make their way to Mount Sinai, as the LORD had instructed Moses (cf. Exodus 3:12). This was not the promised land, that is for sure, but here in ...read more

    A wake-up call to the Church.

    A COMMISSION OF COMPASSION. Matthew 9:35-38, Matthew 10:1-8. The first thing we notice as we look at this introduction to what has been styled ‘The Little Commission’ (as distinct from the better known ‘Great Commission’ of Matthew 28:18-20) is that all true Christian mission is based in the ...read more

    All power is ours in Christ Jesus!

    TAPPING INTO THE POWER. Colossians 1:11-20. The Apostle Paul has been speaking of his ceaseless prayer on behalf of the Colossians: that they might be ‘filled with the Knowledge of His will’ and ‘increasing in the Knowledge of God’ (Colossians 1:9-10). The fact of the matter is, that ‘all ...read more

  • Prepare The Way Series

     | 8,060 views

    “To prepare the way of the Lord,” what does that mean? Is John calling the people to do some road work? Is John saying that we need to go out and get hired on with road crew?

    Introduction In Matthew 3:3, the great prophet Isaiah says John the Baptist will call the people to prepare the way of the Lord, to make His path straight. “To prepare the way of the Lord,” what does that mean? Is John calling the people to do some road work? Is John saying that we need to go out ...read more

  • A Remnant Saved

    based on 9 ratings
     | 9,069 views

    A remnant saved - out of the midst of a scheming people and their leaders.

    1. DREAMING UP SCHEMES. Micah 2:1-11. The specific sins which will bring judgment upon Jerusalem are now outlined. It resonates even today with those who are familiar with the ways of commercial cities. There is the coveting of fields, and their seizure, separating a man from God's ...read more

  • David Lets His Guard Down.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 23, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 948 views

    A downward spiral with inevitable consequences.

    DAVID LETS HIS GUARD DOWN. 2 Samuel 11:1-15. “At the time when kings go forth” (to battle), “David tarried still at Jerusalem.” (2 SAMUEL 11:1). Sending his nephew Joab may have seemed like a good idea at the time, but this constituted a dereliction of duty which put David in the wrong place at ...read more

  • A Naughty Question.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 786 views

    'For the hardness of your heart he wrote this precept' (Mark 10:5).

    A NAUGHTY QUESTION. Mark 10:2-12. The Pharisees’ question about divorce was worse than mischievous in that it, like many of their questions addressed to Jesus, was asked with the intention of “tempting” Jesus into saying something that would cause offence (MARK 10:2). I assert this on two ...read more

  • The Call Of Moses. Part One.

    The bush that burned, but was not consumed.

    THE CALL OF MOSES. Part One. Exodus 3:1-6. EXODUS 3:1. Moses was tending the flock of his father-in-law, Jethro, and led them to new pastures on the far side of the desert, towards Mount Horeb (a.k.a. Mount Sinai). This place is also known in this verse as “the mountain of God,” and elsewhere as ...read more

  • Lest They Forget

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,259 views

    Reminding our children of their rich heritage in the LORD.

    LEST THEY FORGET Psalm 78:1-7. Psalm 78 is entitled a “Maschil” of Asaph, thereby signifying an INSTRUCTION. It is one of the longest Psalms in the Book, not only outlining a history of Israel, but encouraging us to LEARN from this history (cf. Psalm 78:8). Mr. Spurgeon, in his ‘Treasury of ...read more

  • Come Up Hither.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 4, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,327 views

    Whoever exalts himself shall be abased, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.

    COME UP HITHER. Proverbs 25:6-7. This proverb is doubtless what Jesus had in mind when He made His own parable about people choosing the finest seats for themselves at a feast (Luke 14:7-11). There are always ranks in society, any society. Solomon speaks of a king, and of “great men.” ...read more

  • Paul, Timothy, And The Good Deposit.

    Keeping the beautiful Gospel entrusted to us.

    PAUL, TIMOTHY, AND THE GOOD DEPOSIT. 2 Timothy 1:1-14. Paul introduces himself at the beginning of this letter as “an apostle of Jesus Christ” (2 Timothy 1:1a). This apostle was not one of the original twelve, but was a witness to the resurrection - an essential mark for an apostle (cf. Acts ...read more

    A Solemn Charge to the Man of God.

    PREACH THE WORD. 2 Timothy 4:1-5. Paul has just given Timothy the assurance that “ALL Scripture is out-breathed by God and is profitable… that the man of God may be” complete, fully equipped for whatever work God has for us (2 Timothy 3:16-17). “I charge you therefore before God,” ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 1, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,325 views

    The substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

    NOW FAITH IS. Hebrews 11:1-3, Hebrews 11:8-16. This chapter follows on from the quotation of Habakkuk 2:4 in Hebrews 10:38a: ‘the just shall live by faith’ (see also Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11). “Now faith is,” continues Hebrews 11:1. The first thing that we learn about faith is that ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,916 views

    A faithful confession of sin.

    CREATE IN ME A CLEAN HEART. Psalm 51:1-10. In this solemn Psalm of repentance, we dive in (headfirst, as it were) with a plea for mercy. The verbs “have mercy… blot out… wash me… cleanse me” (Psalm 51:1-2) all appear to be in the imperative: but they are in fact plaintive pleas based in the fact ...read more

    Hospitality, and a promise reiterated.

    A VISITATION BY THE LORD. Genesis 18:1-10a. This passage is described as an encounter in which “the LORD” (= YHWH, Hebrew) “appeared unto” Abraham when he was having his siesta “in the heat of the day.” When he lifted up his head, suddenly, there were three men standing by him. As if waking ...read more
