    The Parable Of The Sower Explained.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 16, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 878 views

    The Word of God is good seed (Luke 8:11): of that there is no doubt. So why is it that it does not have a good result in the lives of all those who hear it? The fault is in the soil.

    THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER EXPLAINED. Luke 8:4-15. There were great crowds pressing to see Jesus, straining to hear His words, or perhaps hoping for a healing touch. We can imagine Jesus spotting a farmer sowing seed somewhere nearby, and using this to illustrate His own ministry. This parable ...read more

     | 510 views

    There was none to help except the Lord.

    SIN AND DELIVERANCE. Psalm 107:13-22. This reading begins and ends with a “crying out” to the LORD, His deliverance, and a call to praise. In the first of the two examples here, the petitioners were portrayed as people who were held fast with iron chains in the darkest deepest dungeon, ‘in the ...read more

    Even our friends might let us down, but God never will.

    TAKE IT TO THE LORD IN PRAYER. Psalm 55:16-22. PSALM 55:16. King David was no stranger to ‘friends’ letting him down, but his bold assertion in the face of betrayal was: “As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.” The God upon whom he calls is the true and living God, the ...read more

    "I know that my redeemer liveth" (Job 19:25).

    THE HEIGHT OF JOB’S FAITH. Job 19:21-27. It is bad enough when God appears to afflict us, but it becomes all but unbearable when those who are our supposed ‘friends’ seem to use this as an occasion to reproach us (cf. Job 19:2-3). JOB 19:21-22. “Have pity upon me, O ye my friends,” pleads Job. ...read more

    The Holy Spirit applies the message of the Cross to our lives.

    THE CROSS AND REGENERATION. John 3:1-15. JOHN 3:1. Nicodemus was a member of the strictest sect of the Jews: the Pharisees. No doubt he sought to keep all the man-made rules of his religion, as well as the law of God which was given to Moses. Nicodemus was a religious man; an upright man; a ...read more

    The Feast Of Weeks.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 4, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 262 views

    When I was a small boy growing up in England, Whit (or 'White') Sunday was a time when the girls put on new Summer frocks, and the boy wore a new suit. I knew little about Pentecost, but nothing at all about the Feast of Weeks.

    THE FEAST OF WEEKS. Deuteronomy 16:9-12. At first glance the Feast of Weeks appears to be a purely agricultural festival (DEUTERONOMY 16:9-10), an offering of firstfruits to the LORD (cf. Exodus 23:16a; Exodus 34:22a). The timing of the Feast of Weeks is seven weeks and a day (in other words ...read more

    From suffering to glory.

    AWAITING THE MANIFESTATION. Romans 8:18-23. Paul weighs “the sufferings of the present time” over against “the glory which shall be revealed in us” (ROMANS 8:18; cf. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18). Our inheritance is not only what God has to offer, but God Himself (cf. 1 John 3:2). It is ...read more

     | 305 views

    The deed is done before the all-seeing God. His approval is reward enough in itself.

    WHEN YE FAST. Matthew 6:16-21. True Christianity is not the dour, miserable affair which some of its play-actors portray (Matthew 6:16). So when we fast, we must wash-and-brush up in our usual manner (Matthew 6:17). The approval of God is far more to be desired than the applause of men (Matthew ...read more

    Redemption for the Israel of God.

    A STANDARD RAISED. Isaiah 62:10-12. This prophecy is fulfilled at more than one level. There is a level of fulfilment for those Jews who lived in the days of Cyrus king of Persia (Ezra 1:1-4). At the raising of God’s standard (ISAIAH 62:10), they were able to leave behind the gates of Babylon ...read more

     | 550 views

    A prayer that God might honour His own great name.

    AN APPEAL FOR MERCY. Psalm 79:8-10. God’s people can sometimes see their afflictions as the outworking of their own rebellion against Him. Our failure to keep the LORD’s covenant may often be the cause of our problems, but our repentance brings us to the final court of appeal: His “tender ...read more

    "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD" (PSALM 33:12).

    THE CREATOR GOD, OUR REDEEMER. Psalm 33:6-12. PSALM 33:6-7. “The word of the LORD” (cf. Psalm 33:4) is the same powerful, Creative word by which the cosmos was created (cf. Genesis 1:3).

    "And all the people stood to the Covenant" (2 Kings 23:3).

    STANDING TO THE COVENANT. 2 Kings 22:8-10, 2 Kings 23:1-3. A pivotal moment in the history of the Bible was when Hilkiah the priest told Shaphan the scribe, “I have found THE BOOK OF THE LAW in the house of the LORD.” Shaphan took the book, and read it (2 KINGS 22:8). Shaphan the scribe ...read more
