The Height Of Job's Faith.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 29, 2024

"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

Reassurances For The Needy.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 26, 2024

"For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever" (PSALM 9:18).

REASSURANCES FOR THE NEEDY. Psalm 9:13-20. A personal petition seems to appear in the text with a startling suddenness: “Have mercy upon me, O LORD: consider my trouble” (PSALM 9:13a). Yet even in the midst of this anguish, the Psalmist remembers past deliverances, and addresses his petition to ...read more

"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

The Widow And The Great Woman.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 29, 2024

Elisha addresses two situations: on the one hand, economic bondage; on the other, childlessness.

THE WIDOW AND THE GREAT WOMAN. 2 Kings 4:1-17. These accounts show Elisha to be a worthy successor to Elijah, and his miracles anticipate the compassionate ministry of Jesus. 1. The Widow. We are confronted first with “a woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets” (2 KINGS 4:1), who ...read more

When Ye Fast.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 16, 2024

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

A Standard Raised.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 13, 2024

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

The Feast Of Weeks.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 4, 2025

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

Wrestling In Prayer.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 30, 2014

A brief outline on which to build a prayer-night sermon.

WRESTLING IN PRAYER. Genesis 32:24-29. Jacob's wrestling, whilst factual and historical, is nevertheless a metaphor for prayer. 1. The place name, Jabbok, means pouring out, or emptying. This reminds me of the self-emptying of Christ (cf. Philippians 2:7-8). It also reminds me of ...read more
