    There will be times in our lives when we have to separate from our loved ones for a while. Is there a godly way of doing that?

    THE UNVEILING OF THE MYSTERY. Ephesians 3:1-12. The “For this cause” of Ephesians 3:1 follows Paul’s contemplation of the reconciliation accomplished by our Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:11-22).

    Creation's harmonious praise.

    THE GREATER CANTATA. Psalm 96:1-13. Psalms 93-100 are sometimes known as the “enthronement” Psalms. Yet this is not the enthronement of any earthly king (Psalm 93:1; Psalm 97:1; Psalm 99:1). Many of the words of this particular Psalm (Psalm 96) make their first appearance at the instalment of ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 720 views

    According to the proportion of faith.

    THE USE OF GIFTS. Romans 12:6-16. ROMANS 12:6. Within the church, and for the church, we each have “gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us” (cf. 1 Corinthians 7:7).

    based on 2 ratings
     | 647 views

    The LORD is God alone, and will tolerate no rivals.

    LOVE THE LORD THY GOD. Deuteronomy 6:4-9. One of the core texts in the whole Bible is the Shema (DEUTERONOMY 6:4-5). “Hear O Israel…” is something of a refrain in Deuteronomy, much as Jesus would later often say, ‘he who has ears to hear, let him hear.’ Here we are told who the LORD is, and ...read more

    OUR CITIZENSHIP IN HEAVEN. Philippians 3:17-21. The Apostle Paul had been telling of the forward motion in his own Christian life (cf. Philippians 3:13-14), and encouraged his readers to be like-minded with him (cf. Philippians 3:15-16). The writer even went so far as to set himself up as an ...read more

    Addressed to both children and adults.

    THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD. Psalm 23:1-3. When King David was a boy, he used to look after his father’s sheep - so he knew what he was talking about when he spoke of the LORD as his shepherd.

Yet when we know Jesus as our Good Shepherd (John 10:14), we have full bragging rights (Psalm 23:1-3). One of the distinguishing marks of the Good Shepherd is His compassion towards an ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 295 views

    The King who feared a people who were no threat to him; the blind Seer and dumbfounded Soothsayer who could neither see nor curse; and the dumb donkey who saw and spoke for God.

    THE DUMB DONKEY SPOKE. Numbers 22:21-31. After Israel’s defeat of the Amorites, who had once conquered lands belonging to Moab (cf. Numbers 21:26), the Moabites were terrified at the presence of the children of Israel (cf. Numbers 22:2-3). [They need not have been, because the LORD had expressly ...read more

    Let us always be open to that grace, and to the daily manifestation of it in our own lives, and in the lives of others.

    RECEIVE NOT THE GRACE OF GOD IN VAIN. 2 Corinthians 6:1-10.
