    Paul was driven to his knees before the Father (EPHESIANS 3:14).

    A PRAYER FOR GENTILE BELIEVERS. Ephesians 3:13-21. In Ephesians 3:1-12, Paul related how he had been called to preach the gospel among the Gentiles.

    Having a mind set for God's service.

    THE MEASURE OF FAITH. Romans 12:1-5. ROMANS 12:1. “I beseech you therefore, brethren,” begins the application of Paul’s letter to the Romans.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 700 views

    'Peace, peace; when there is no peace' (cf. Jeremiah 8:11).

    FALSE PROPHETS. Jeremiah 23:16-24. Some prophets in Jerusalem were speaking a vision of their own imagination, and not from the mouth of the LORD. They were telling those who despise the LORD, “The LORD has said, Ye shall have peace… No evil shall befall you” (JEREMIAH 23:16-17; cf. Jeremiah ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 591 views

    "I AM the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep" (John 10:11).

    JESUS THE GOOD SHEPHERD. John 10:11-16. In John 10 Jesus effectively castigated the Pharisees for their failures as the spiritual shepherds of Israel. The image was familiar in a pastoral society, and echoed the Old Testament (e.g. Jeremiah 23:1-4). JOHN 10:11. In the fourth “I am” saying of ...read more

    Jesus was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

    ASCENSION DAY. Mark 16:14-20. Jesus appeared to the eleven, and “upbraided them with their UNBELIEF” because they “BELIEVED NOT” them which had seen Him after He was risen (Mark 16:14; cf. Luke 24:36-43). The passage fast-forwards to the Great Commission (Mark 16:15; cf. Matthew 28:19; ...read more

    “It is the sacrifice of the LORD’s Passover” (Exodus 12:27).

    THE SACRIFICE OF THE LORD’S PASSOVER. Exodus 12:21-28. EXODUS 12:21. Moses gave specific instructions to “the elders of Israel,” the heads of families, to “choose out a lamb” and “kill the Passover.” EXODUS 12:22.

     | 796 views

    “God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world" (Galatians 6:14).

    GLORY ONLY IN THE CROSS. Galatians 6:11-18. As Paul draws towards the conclusion of his letter to the Galatians, he takes the pen into his own hand (GALATIANS 6:11) and emphasizes once more the issue between the Judaisers and himself. The motives of his opponents are suspect: to make a good ...read more

     | 680 views

    "But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law" (Galatians 5:18).

    THE BATTLE WITHIN. Galatians 5:16-24. We must “walk in the (Holy) Spirit”: to which imperative is added a promise, “and ye shall not fulfil the lusts of the flesh” (GALATIANS 5:16). We need to be aware of the spiritual nature of the battle in which we are engaged (GALATIANS 5:17). If we are ...read more

    The Set Time.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 17, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 794 views

    Promises for a generation yet unborn (cf. Psalm 102:18).

    THE SET TIME. Psalm 102:15-22. The immediate context of these verses speaks of how the eternal LORD shall yet ‘have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come’ (cf. Psalm 102:13). This anticipates more than the rebuilding of Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. It ...read more

     | 518 views

    "But Christ..." (Hebrews 9:11).

    A HIGH PRIEST OF GOOD THINGS TO COME. Hebrews 9:11-15. This short passage is the high point of the writer’s comparison between the old covenant and the new. In an argument from the lesser to the greater, the chapter commences with a demonstration of the limitations of the access to God allowed ...read more

    Babel reversed; God’s purposes restored.

    PENTECOST. Acts 2:1-11. There is a time and a place for everything - or so the old folks used to say. There was a time for Christmas, and a time for Easter. There was a time for Ascension - and now, a time for Pentecost. The Greek reads, “in the filling-in of the Day of Pentecost” they were all ...read more

    Gratefully receiving His bountiful provision.

    PROVIDENCE AND PRAISE. Psalm 145:15-21. Whether they know it or not, all flesh is dependent upon the LORD for their daily provision (PSALM 145:15). Whether they acknowledge it or not, no man can find sufficient sustenance without the LORD. It is better therefore to seek Him first, knowing ...read more

     | 146 views

    Words fitly spoken.

    SOME OBSERVATIONS OF SOLOMON. Proverbs 25:6-14. 1. “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 (cf. Luke 14:7-11). There are always ranks in society, ...read more

     | 508 views

    "Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God" (1 John 3:1).

    THE CHRISTIAN AND SIN. Abridged. 1 John 3:1-8. “Behold,” says John. Pause for thought and reflection. For it is indeed a wonderful demonstration of God's love that “we” should be called the sons of God (1 JOHN 3:1). This was not what we deserved, but as we know from other Scriptures, it ...read more

    Controversy in the Temple.

    BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS, I AM. John 8:46-59. JOHN 8:46. There was nobody who could lay any charge against our spotless Saviour. So why do people refuse point blank to receive the Gospel? This is the unreasonableness of fallen mankind. JOHN 8:47. Elsewhere Jesus says, ‘My sheep hear my voice’ (cf. ...read more
