    From Lament To Praise.

     | 1,221 views

    God is, and ever has been, my protector. Why would He let us down now?

    FROM LAMENT TO PRAISE. Psalm 43:1-5. Bold prayer dares to address God in the imperative. It seems that the Psalmist, speaking on behalf of many a pilgrim since, has lost his sense of the immanence of God. Yet we cannot rely upon senses, so he falls back on what he knows about God. ...read more

    An Appeal In Hope.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 18, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,091 views

    This Psalm looks beyond the present crisis and need, through the availability of God’s righteousness, to the ultimate hope of the resurrection.

    AN APPEAL IN HOPE. Psalm 17:1-7, Psalm 17:15. PSALM 17:1. How can a man, born dead in trespasses and sins, plead with the LORD to “hear the right?” Well, it is as Abraham said, ‘Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?’ (Genesis 18:25). When we use this Psalm, we are not appealing to our ...read more

    A Call To Faith.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 18, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,192 views

    What do we need to purchase the water of salvation? Nothing at all! It is a free gift of the true and living God.

    A CALL TO FAITH. Isaiah 55:1-5. ISAIAH 55:1. The Bible is full of wonderful gracious invitations. Isaiah 55 begins with a call to the thirsty to come to the waters. This is in order to quench, not a physical thirst, but a spiritual thirst. Jesus said, ‘Blessed are those who hunger and ...read more

    The Faithfulness Of God.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,561 views

    "The gifts and calling of God are without repentance." Romans 11:29.

    THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD. Romans 11:1-2a, Romans 11:29-32. What is causing Paul so much stress and distress is that Israel ‘have not all obeyed the gospel’ (cf. Romans 10:16). As we enter our present chapter, Paul is asking: Does this then mean that God has “cast away His people” (Romans ...read more

    Water Walking In The Storms Of Life.

     | 1,589 views

    Jesus is an ever present help in the day of trouble.

    WATER WALKING IN THE STORMS OF LIFE. Matthew 14:22-33. MATTHEW 14:22-24. Jesus told the disciples to get into a ship and go to the other side of the lake while He dismissed the people. Then He went into a mountain to pray. By the time evening had come, the ship was in the midst of the lake, and ...read more

    The Way Of The Cross.

     | 1,873 views

    The Cross of Jesus, and our cross.

    THE WAY OF THE CROSS. Matthew 16:21-28. MATTHEW 16:21-23. When Jesus began to openly teach the necessity of the Cross, Peter - of all people - took Him aside, and began to rebuke Him. This brought to the lips of Jesus what is perhaps the sternest rebuke that He ever gave. Jesus' rebuke of ...read more

     | 1,057 views

    Moses and Aaron were commissioned and sent by God.

    THE SENDING OF MOSES AND AARON. Psalm 105:23-26. PSALM 105:23. “Israel also came into Egypt,” along with all his progeny. There they became “sojourners.” This is what Christians are: ‘strangers and pilgrims in the earth’ (cf. Hebrews 11:13). This world is not our home, we are just passing ...read more

    Covenant People In The Dock.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 30, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,489 views

    When He calls His covenant people to judgment, those bound to Him by sacrifice, it is not necessarily something to strike terror into our hearts: because that covenant is true, and that all-sufficient sacrifice is Jesus.

    COVENANT PEOPLE IN THE DOCK. Psalm 50:1-8, Psalm 50:22-23. “A Psalm of Asaph,” reads the superscription. Asaph was a chief musician contemporary with King David (1 Chronicles 16:4-7). Asaph is also referred to as a ‘seer’ (2 Chronicles 29:30). Taken as a whole, the content of this ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,328 views

    The substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

    NOW FAITH IS. Hebrews 11:1-3, Hebrews 11:8-16. This chapter follows on from the quotation of Habakkuk 2:4 in Hebrews 10:38a: ‘the just shall live by faith’ (see also Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11). “Now faith is,” continues Hebrews 11:1. The first thing that we learn about faith is that ...read more

     | 2,918 views

    A faithful confession of sin.

    CREATE IN ME A CLEAN HEART. Psalm 51:1-10. In this solemn Psalm of repentance, we dive in (headfirst, as it were) with a plea for mercy. The verbs “have mercy… blot out… wash me… cleanse me” (Psalm 51:1-2) all appear to be in the imperative: but they are in fact plaintive pleas based in the fact ...read more

     | 1,584 views

    Hospitality, and a promise reiterated.

    A VISITATION BY THE LORD. Genesis 18:1-10a. This passage is described as an encounter in which “the LORD” (= YHWH, Hebrew) “appeared unto” Abraham when he was having his siesta “in the heat of the day.” When he lifted up his head, suddenly, there were three men standing by him. As if waking ...read more

    A Letter To The Exiles.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 10, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,860 views

    Seek the peace of the place in which God has placed you, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.

    A LETTER TO THE EXILES. Jeremiah 29:1, Jeremiah 29:4-7. This letter is addressed from Jeremiah in Jerusalem to the elders, priests, prophets and people in exile in Babylon (Jeremiah 29:1). Jeremiah had already prophesied that the exile would last seventy years (cf. Jeremiah 25:12). Our text ...read more

    Come Let Us Reason Together.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,894 views

    The failure of our efforts and the glory of Christ's work.

    COME LET US REASON TOGETHER. Isaiah 1:10-18. Isaiah addresses his congregation as “rulers of Sodom” and “people of Gomorrah”, and begins to reason with them (Isaiah 1:10). It is all quite shocking: how dare he expose our comfortable, upright congregation to such strong language? After all, ...read more

    Come Up Hither.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,334 views

    Whoever exalts himself shall be abased, and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.

    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 (Luke 14:7-11). There are always ranks in society, any society. Solomon speaks of a king, and of “great men.” ...read more

    He loosed my bonds.

    HE HEARD MY VOICE. Psalm 116:1-2, Psalm 116:12-19. If I was asked why I love the LORD, I might well answer: because He heard and answered my prayer (Psalm 116:1). Yet this may, at first glance, appear self-serving: what would I have to say for myself if my prayers had not been answered in the ...read more
