    Plans Of Man And Purposes Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 10, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 13,408 views

    A man’s plans may be one thing (Proverbs 16:9), but it is God’s purposes that prevail (Proverbs 19:21).

    MAN’S PLANS AND GOD’S PURPOSES. Ruth 3:1-5; Ruth 4:13-17. The days of the judges (Ruth 1:1) were turbulent times. ‘There was no king in the land, and everybody did what was right in his own sight’ (Judges 21:25). Anarchy ruled, and God disciplined His people through cycles of invasion, ...read more

    Walking In The Spirit

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 30, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,145 views

    Sowing to the flesh versus sowing to the Spirit.

    WALKING IN THE SPIRIT. Galatians 6:1-16. ‘If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit,’ said Paul towards the end of the previous chapter (Galatians 5:25). The Greek word translated here as ‘walk’ speaks of our deliberately ‘getting in line with’ the Holy Spirit’s leading in ...read more

    Our Part In The Refining Process

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 11, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,193 views

    This seemingly random selection of exhortations follows on from Hebrews 12:29, and represents our part in the refining process which God is working in our lives (cf. Ephesians 4:1).

    OUR PART IN THE REFINING PROCESS. Hebrews 13:1-8; Hebrews 13:15-16. I. PRACTICAL LOVE (Hebrews 13:1-3). 1. “Brotherly love” (Hebrews 13:1). Jesus is ‘not ashamed’ to call us brethren (Hebrews 2:11-12). The readers of Hebrews are viewed as ‘holy brethren’ (Hebrews 3:1). This section begins ...read more

    A Stirring In The Heart Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 11, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,970 views

    It is a mystery, but our unchangeable God wants us to understand that He is not without compassion.

    A STIRRING IN THE HEART OF GOD. Hosea 11:1-11. Through His speaking in the first person, and in what He says, this chapter offers us a unique view of the tenderness of the LORD toward His people (Hosea 11:1a). Moses reminded the people that the LORD ‘did not set His love upon’ them for any ...read more

    Taste And See That The Lord Is Good (Complete)

    based on 5 ratings
     | 28,133 views

    A call to worship; living the life; deliverance.

    1. O MAGNIFY THE LORD WITH ME. Psalm 34:1-8. David was ‘on the run’ from king Saul. Mistakenly thinking that he might find refuge with the Philistines, he only escaped from their clutches by feigning madness (1 Samuel 21:10-15). Then he hid in a cave. Knowing that David was in this place, his ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,576 views

    Loving your neighbour in these end times.

    LOVE AND OBEDIENCE. Romans 13:8-14. I). LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR. Romans 13:8-10. The imperative, “To no one nothing owe you (all), but to love one another” (Romans 13:8a) follows on from the discussion of being subject to ‘the powers that be’ who - whether we voted for them or not - are ...read more

    Is Tithing A Mandate Or Human Tradition?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 10, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 785 views

    This message takes an honest and impartial look at what the Bible says about Tithing, what it was, its biblical history, and how and why it was implemented.

    “See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.” (Colossians 2:8 NIV) Too many Christians feel guilty and Tithe out of obligation rather than love. Some ...read more

    Numbering Our Days.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 8, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,660 views

    Reverencing God, and making a right application of the truth about the brevity of our lives.

    NUMBERING OUR DAYS. Psalm 90:1-12. Psalm 90:1. It is remarkable that the children of Israel survived 400 years in Egypt, and for some of that time under unspeakable oppression. Yet despite their hard labour and sorrow, the LORD had been their dwelling place “from generation to generation”. This ...read more

    Anointed For An Everlasting Throne.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,729 views

    David as a type of our Lord. Jesus as the seed of David.

    ANOINTED FOR AN EVERLASTING THRONE. Psalm 89:20-37. (I) The LORD's Anointed. Psalm 89:20-26. Psalm 89:20. “David my servant” becomes the LORD’s anointed. David is a type of our Lord. Jesus is also “anointed” (as the title ‘Christ’ indicates), and Jesus is the Servant of the LORD par ...read more

     | 4,711 views

    Having a proper knowledge of Heaven can change the way we live our entire lives.

    A bank in Binghamton, New York, sent some flowers to a competitor who had recently moved into a new building. There was a mix up at the flower shop, and the card sent with the arrangement read, "With our deepest sympathy." The florist, very embarrassed, apologized. But it was worse, because the ...read more

    The Establishment Of True Righteousness

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 24, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,691 views

    It is not enough that we know the law of God. We must put our trust in Jesus, and receive with open hand the free gift of His love and forgiveness.

    THE ESTABLISHMENT OF TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS. Romans 3:9-26. I. The Universality of Sin. Every one of us thinks that we are better than criminals. We imagine that we are moral human beings. We are confident that we are law-abiding citizens. Yet the Scriptures teach us that we are no better than ...read more

    A Song For The Journey

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 6, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 11,406 views

    The pilgrimage of life may - or even must - lead by the way of the Cross: but the destination is assured.

    A SONG FOR THE JOURNEY. Psalm 121. This is a “song of ascent” - quite possibly sung by pilgrims on their way up to Jerusalem for one of the festivals. It would be an appropriate Psalm for returning exiles, too, when faced with the dangers of a thousand mile journey back across the wilderness from ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,335 views

    Go on holding on: the day of Christ is not here yet.

    THE NEED FOR CHRISTIAN STABILITY. 2 Thessalonians 2. The church of the Thessalonians had heard a rumour concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our being gathered together to Him (2 Thessalonians 2:1). There were those who taught that “the day of Christ” was already here (2 ...read more

    A Clash Of Kingdoms

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 20, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,474 views

    The Kingdom of God goes head to head with the kingdoms of this world.

    A CLASH OF KINGDOMS. Mark 6:14-29. As a unit, Mark 6:14-29 begins and ends with people “having heard” something. Herod “heard” about Jesus and His disciples (Mark 6:14), and drew his own conclusions from it (Mark 6:16). John’s disciples “heard” about John’s death, and acted accordingly (Mark ...read more

    Jesus Calms The Storm

    Contributed by Russell Pettus on Jun 26, 2018
     | 30,664 views

    Jesus calming the storm is moving the disciples to a decision of who they think Jesus is. They know him as a rabbi and the Messiah but the only one who can calm the sea is God.

    Jesus Calms the Storm Mark 4:35-41 Lectionary B Proper 7. Introduction One of my favorite commercials of late has been the “Mayhem” commercials by Allstate. Mayhem is everywhere. It is the teenager texting, the storm blowing a tree on your house, the person in a hurry that doesn’t put out a grill ...read more
