  • How Long?

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 20, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,354 views

    A flow from pain through prayer to praise.

    HOW LONG? Psalm 13:1-6. This is a lament, a Psalm of complaint. This is evident from the outset, with the fourfold cry of pain, “How long?” (Psalm 13:1-2). The complaint is addressed first to the LORD (Psalm 13:1), but then seems to descend into something resembling self-pity (Psalm ...read more

  • Come Up Hither.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,251 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

  • Death Of Moses.

    The transition of leadership from Moses to Joshua.

    DEATH OF MOSES. Deuteronomy 34:1-12. DEUTERONOMY 34:1-4. Moses’ long ministry was drawing to an end, but the LORD had one last treat for His faithful servant before he died. Moses already knew that he would not be permitted to enter the promised land (cf. Deuteronomy 3:27), but the LORD ...read more

  • Crossing Jordan.

    God keeps His promises to Israel as they at last enter the promised land.

    CROSSING JORDAN. Joshua 3:7-17. JOSHUA 3:7. Transition from one ministry to another is always challenging, but if the Lord’s people recognise the new incumbent as God’s man then they can agree under God to hearken to him (cf. Joshua 1:17). Moses was dead, but the LORD had appointed Joshua in his ...read more

  • From Lament To Praise.

     | 1,115 views

    God is, and ever has been, my protector. Why would He let us down now?

    FROM LAMENT TO PRAISE. Psalm 43:1-5. Bold prayer dares to address God in the imperative. It seems that the Psalmist, speaking on behalf of many a pilgrim since, has lost his sense of the immanence of God. Yet we cannot rely upon senses, so he falls back on what he knows about God. ...read more

  • He Heard My Voice.

    He loosed my bonds.

    HE HEARD MY VOICE. Psalm 116:1-2, Psalm 116:12-19. If I was asked why I love the LORD, I might well answer: because He heard and answered my prayer (Psalm 116:1). Yet this may, at first glance, appear self-serving: what would I have to say for myself if my prayers had not been answered in the ...read more

  • But God...

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,697 views

    Romans 5:8 - “But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

    BUT GOD... Romans 5:1-8. ROMANS 5:1. The “Therefore” of Romans 5:1 links with the argument in the previous chapter, whereby it is established that ‘to him who does not work (to establish his own salvation) but believes (like Abraham) on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted as ...read more

  • O How I Love Your Word

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 28, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,003 views

    Not just reading the Scriptures, or hearing them, but speaking them, owning them!

    O HOW I LOVE YOUR WORD. Psalm 119:97-104. Psalm 119:97. The Blessed man avoids the walk of the ungodly, the stance of sinners and the seat of the scornful. ‘But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law does he meditate (both) day and night’ (cf. Psalm 1:1-2). A similar dichotomy is ...read more

  • Lest They Forget

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 7, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,195 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

  • A Song Of Loves

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,691 views

    Both Psalm 45:6-7 and Hebrews 1:8-9 address Jesus as God, yet distinguish Jesus from God.

    A SONG OF LOVES. Psalm 45:1-2; Psalm 45:6-9. The mysterious word in the title of this Psalm, ‘Shoshannim’, may refer to a six-stringed instrument, or to the scattering of roses or lilies around the nuptial bed: what we might call confetti today. The word ‘Maschil’ may be a musical reference, ...read more

  • Jesus Born To Die.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,968 views

    He is not ashamed to call us brethren.

    JESUS BORN TO DIE. Hebrews 2:5-12. The writer to the Hebrew Christians has been demonstrating, from Scripture, Jesus’ superiority to the angels. Of the angels he says, ‘Are they not all ministering spirits being sent forth for service on behalf of those being about to inherit salvation?’ ...read more

  • Tapping Into The Power

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,432 views

    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

  • An Appeal In Hope.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 18, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,025 views

    This Psalm looks beyond the present crisis and need, through the availability of God’s righteousness, to the ultimate hope of the resurrection.

    AN APPEAL IN HOPE. Psalm 17:1-7, Psalm 17:15. PSALM 17:1. How can a man, born dead in trespasses and sins, plead with the LORD to “hear the right?” Well, it is as Abraham said, ‘Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?’ (Genesis 18:25). When we use this Psalm, we are not appealing to our ...read more

  • From Prison To Premiership.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,225 views

    "He sent a man before them." Psalm 105.17.

    FROM PRISON TO PREMIERSHIP. Psalm 105:16-22. PSALM 105:16. It is the LORD our God who “called for a famine upon the land: He brake the whole staff of bread.” Bread, or any staple, is aptly called ‘the staff of life’ – for without his staff man must surely fall. But such things are in the hands ...read more

  • A Great Multitude Fed.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,405 views

    The unfailing compassion of Jesus.

    A GREAT MULTITUDE FED. Matthew 14:13-21. MATTHEW 14:13. Jesus had tried to withdraw from the throng in Galilee by boat, and sought some rest and relaxation in the Golan Heights: but the crowds followed Him on foot. MATTHEW 14:14. Jesus was moved with compassion towards the multitude which ...read more
