    The Secret Of The Lord.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 13, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 298 views

    The secret of the LORD is with them that fear Him; that they may know His covenant (Psalm 25:14).

    THE SECRET OF THE LORD. Psalm 25:14-22. “The secret of the LORD” (PSALM 25:14a). This speaks of the friendship, the intimate fellowship that the believer has with the LORD. It is as if we were seated upon our couch ‘in heavenly places in Christ Jesus’ (cf. Ephesians 2:6), listening to Him tell ...read more

    Just Passing Through.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 11, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 254 views

    Living in a world that is not our home.

    JUST PASSING THROUGH. Psalm 120:1-7. The Psalmist’s testimony is, “In my distress, I cried unto the LORD" (PSALM 120:1a). Prayer is our only recourse in time of trouble (cf. John 16:23-24). It is sure to gain a response from the LORD: “and He heard me” (PSALM 120:1b; cf. Psalm 18:6; Psalm ...read more

    The Lord Is My Salvation.

     | 645 views

    The name Jesus means 'The LORD is salvation.' It is He who has saved me!

    THE LORD MY SALVATION. Psalm 118:14-21. This Psalm is the last of the processional Psalms which were sung by pilgrims on their way up to Jerusalem for the great Jewish feasts. There are echoes of the Passover, and anticipations of the death and resurrection of Jesus. PSALM 118:14 takes us back ...read more

    The Grace Of Submission.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 4, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 315 views

    "But He giveth more grace" (James 4:6).

    THE GRACE OF SUBMISSION. James 4:1-10. James has been contrasting the ‘earthly, sensual, devilish’ wisdom that engenders ‘envying and strife’ (cf. James 3:14-16) with the ‘peaceable’ wisdom of God (cf. James 3:17-18). JAMES 4:1. With a startling suddenness, James asks, “From whence come wars ...read more

    The Adoption Of Mephibosheth.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 5, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 283 views

    An illustration of what it means to be adopted into the family of God.

    THE ADOPTION OF MEPHIBOSHETH. 2 Samuel 9:6-13. David the son of Jesse, and Jonathan the son of king Saul, were the best of friends. When they parted ways they entered into a covenant in which David vowed to show kindness to Jonathan’s family “for ever” (cf. 1 Samuel 20:14-16). After David became ...read more

    Our Boast In God.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 22, 2025
     | 16 views

    These verses form the basis for an appeal to God for deliverance.

    OUR BOAST IN GOD. Psalm 44:1-8. It is well if we base our appeals and cries for help to God not upon ourselves (our own good name, what we imagine we have achieved, and what we have done or not done); but rather upon His good name (PSALM 44:5; PSALM 44:8), what He has done in the past (cf. 1 ...read more

     | 145 views

    Reliability of the LORD.

    THE EVERLASTING MERCY OF THE LORD. Psalm 118:1-9. Our Psalm today begins, “O give thanks unto the LORD; for He is good” (PSALM 118:1a). Notice that it is not that ‘He has been good to me.’ But rather that He is “good” within Himself. My mentor knew what it was to be persecuted, but faithfully ...read more

    Social Skills Required From Jesus To Sort The Tantrums.

    Fire! Baptism! Discerning This Time

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 1, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,153 views

    Division: a declaration of how things will be, rather than an imperative of how they should be.

    FIRE! BAPTISM! DISCERNING THIS TIME. Luke 12:49-56. There is a measure of dissonance as this passage comes crashing through Jesus’ symphony of peace. “Fire!” begins the Greek of Luke 12:49. “Fire I came to cast into the earth, and what will I if it be already kindled?” Fire speaks to us of ...read more

    The Shame Of The Cross

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 17, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,851 views

    Jesus… for the joy that was set before Him endured the Cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12.2.

    THE SHAME OF THE CROSS. Psalm 70. I want to speak to you today about the shame of the Cross. This is what we see in Hebrews 12:2, and which Paul elaborates elsewhere by saying that Christ took upon Himself the curse of the Tree that we might be redeemed from the curse of the Law (Galatians ...read more

    Blessing the LORD for all His gracious benefits.

    AWAKENING TO WORSHIP. Psalm 103:1-8. Psalm 103:1. Sometimes we are sluggish about praising God, so we have to stir ourselves up, searching within ourselves whether there might be anything hindering us from the right worship of the LORD. Having awoken our “soul” to the task, we must delve ...read more

    The Righteous Rejoice.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 19, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,195 views

    When believers rejoice, we rejoice in the LORD. Praise is an appropriate response for what God has done for us through Jesus Christ our Lord.

    THE RIGHTEOUS REJOICE. Psalm 33:1. “Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous; for praise is comely for the upright” (Psalm 33:1). We see first of all the exhortation: “Rejoice in the LORD” (cf. Philippians 4:4). Joy is a fruit of the Spirit (cf. Galatians 5:22). When we abide in Jesus the true vine, ...read more

    Is Not My Word Like As A Fire?

     | 2,053 views

    What is the chaff to the wheat, says the LORD.

    IS NOT MY WORD LIKE AS A FIRE? Jeremiah 23:23-29. Speaking for the LORD, Jeremiah complained that his heart was ‘broken’ within him because of false prophets (Jeremiah 23:9-12). It is one thing to see such ‘folly’ among the Baal worshipers in Samaria. But even the prophets of Jerusalem ...read more
