    I must be about my Father's business.

    THE BOY JESUS COMES TO HIS TEMPLE. Luke 2:41-52. It was obligatory for men to attend the three main feasts in Jerusalem, but it is evident that Mary and Joseph went up as a couple (Luke 2:41).

    This is a Psalm of thanksgiving, and of hope.

    THE LORD WILL PERFECT ME. Psalm138:1-8. In Psalm 138:1, David praises the LORD. 1st, his praise is wholehearted (cf. Psalm 9:1; Psalm 86:12-13; Psalm 103:1-2; Psalm 111:1). 2nd, it is ‘in the face of’ (to use a contemporary term) all other would-be or otherwise imaginary ‘gods’ (cf. ...read more

  • The Nature Of True Fasting

     | 17,126 views

    True fasting will lead the liberated soul to seek relief and liberty for others.

    THE NATURE OF TRUE FASTING. Isaiah 58:1-12. Surprisingly, the only place where the law of Moses commands fasting is in the “affliction of soul” associated with the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16:29-31; Leviticus 23:27-32; Numbers 29:7). This is apt, as it immediately associates fasting with ...read more

    Responding to the call of God.

    SEEK THE LORD WHILE HE MAY BE FOUND. Isaiah 55. 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

  • Grace And Peace, Thanksgiving And Fellowship

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013
    based on 11 ratings
     | 7,196 views

    Grace as the source of spiritual gifts. Peace as something more than the absence of war. Thanksgiving is for always. Fellowship in Christ draws individuals together.

    GRACE AND PEACE, THANKSGIVING AND FELLOWSHIP. 1 Corinthians 1:3-9. It was customary for Greek and Roman letter-writers in the first century A.D. to prefix their epistles with “greetings” (Acts 15:23; James 1:1). Paul regularly uses a pun, replacing “greetings” with “grace” (1 Corinthians 1:3). ...read more

  • All Nations Shall Serve Him

    As surely as the ordinances of sun, moon and stars remain, there will be a king to sit upon the throne of David. That king is Jesus.

    ALL NATIONS SHALL SERVE HIM. Psalm 72:1-7; Psalm 72:10-14. The name of Solomon is associated with Psalm 72, and it is quite possible that this sacred song was premiered on the occasion of his coronation. Yet it is evident that there were limitations to Solomon’s reign, and the monarchy fell into ...read more

    THE INCLUSIVE NATURE OF GOD’S MISSION. Luke 4:21-30. In a synagogue in Nazareth, a young man is reading aloud from the scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He stops mid-sentence at “the acceptable year of the LORD” without mentioning “the day of vengeance of our God” (Isaiah 61:2). As He sits down to ...read more

    The Reliability of the LORD in whom we trust.

    THE LORD MY ROCK. Psalm 31:1-5. PSALM 31:1. This Psalm begins with the LORD, the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is a Psalm of trust, a Psalm of faith.

    A metaphor from God's dealings in Creation to describe God's dealings with His Word.

    THE WORD GOES FORTH. Isaiah 55:10-13. I was in India, alone in my room, with the door shut. I read Isaiah 55:10-11.

    The LORD is High for evermore. Psalm 92 verse 8.

    THE GREATNESS OF HIS WORKS. Psalm 92:1-15. This Psalm takes up a common Bible theme: the dichotomy between the “righteous” (Psalm 92:12) and the “wicked” (Psalm 92:7). However, first and foremost, taken as a whole, it is about the LORD. The LORD is mentioned seven times in this ‘Psalm or ...read more

    Paul's fear was not that he would lose his salvation, but that he might be disqualified from his team!

    TRAINING AND TEAMWORK. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27. The Apostle Paul, as every good minister of Christ, was willing to become “all things to all men” (1 Corinthians 9:22), that they might be SAVED by Christ. Now Paul did all this for the gospel. It was an unselfish act, but would have its reward in ...read more

    Remember not the former things...

    BEHOLD, I AM DOING A NEW THING! Isaiah 43:18-25. The first point of application for the prophecies of Isaiah 1-35 is the contemporary Assyrian threat, which is finally resolved in the narrative of Isaiah 36-37.
