    based on 6 ratings
     | 18,687 views

    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. After King Hezekiah’s sickness in Isaiah 38 - and the miraculous turning back of the ...read more

  • The Unity Of Hope

    based on 10 ratings
     | 8,454 views

    The Christ child as the hope of the nations.

    THE UNITY OF HOPE. Romans 15:4-13. In many respects we might view Romans 14:1 to Romans15:13 as the practical outworking of the Jewish/Gentile debate of Romans 9 to 11. There was some dissension in Rome over matters of food and drink, and holy days. It is quite probable that it was a question of ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 7, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 11,583 views

    Another Comforter = another of the same - who re-presents Jesus. He is the One who stands beside us to strengthen and empower.

    THE HOLY SPIRIT, THE COMFORTER. John 14:8-17; John 14:25-27. This reading is an excerpt from the ‘Upper Room Discourse’ (John 13:31-16:33). John 14 is one of the most well-known, and best loved, chapters in the Bible. It is our purpose here to concentrate on just one, or perhaps two, of the ...read more

     | 2,565 views

    The LORD's leading in the pilgrimage of this life.

    THIS PILGRIM WAY. Psalm 84:1-12. At the end of the celebration of Passover, in Jewish homes scattered throughout the world, the parting toast is, ‘Next year in Jerusalem!’ The sentiment echoes a common consciousness, a restlessness if you will, which is forever drawing God’s people back ...read more

    Momentary affliction and eternal glory.

    APPLICATION OF THE TRUTH CONCERNING THE BREVITY OF LIFE. Psalm 90:12-17. Psalm 90:12. When we do reverence the LORD, we will want Him to teach us to make a right application of the truth about the brevity of our lives. We need to know ourselves sinners, and to be aware that death is “the wages ...read more

  • Entering Rest And Finding Grace

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,802 views

    Our rest based in the finished work of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Let us hold fast our profession and come boldly to the throne of grace.

    ENTERING REST AND FINDING GRACE. Hebrews 4:1-16. “Let us therefore fear” links this passage with the previous chapter. It has to do with the promise of “entering into His rest”, “lest any of you should seem to come short of it” (Hebrews 4:1). The promise of entering the promised land was ...read more

    No longer a slave.

    AN OPEN LETTER. PHILEMON 1:1-21. Onesimus was a slave who had escaped from his Christian master, Philemon. Yet in a beautiful irony, having not ‘made it’ alone in the big city, he found himself at last brought under the direct personal influence of “Paul the prisoner” (Philemon 1:1). Many a ...read more

  • Followers On The Journey Home

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 23, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,595 views

    If we are going to emulate anybody, we must emulate Jesus.

    FOLLOWERS ON THE JOURNEY HOME. Philippians 3:17-4:1. The Apostle Paul had been telling of the forward motion in his own Christian life (Philippians 3:13-14), and encouraged his readers to be like-minded with him (Philippians 3:15-16). The writer even went so far as to set himself up as an ...read more

  • An Ominous Note

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 30, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,607 views

    "Except you repent, you shall all likewise perish!" Without the mercy and help of God, the cry goes forth a second time: "Cut it down!"

    AN OMINOUS NOTE. Luke 13:1-9. There has been an ominous note ringing in the Gospel of Luke ever since Jesus set His face like a flint, determined to go to Jerusalem (Luke 9:51). This was the turning point of Luke’s Gospel, and has implications both for Jesus Himself (Luke 13:33), and for those ...read more

  • A View From The House Of The Potter

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 7, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,320 views

    The surprise here is that the intention of God can be resisted, and if (we) turn He speaks of changing His mind.

    A VIEW FROM THE POTTER'S HOUSE. Jeremiah 18:1-11. On one occasion I was taken to a pottery museum, where one could purchase wares and also see them being made. I had made one or two small pottery items while at school (one of which remained on my mother’s back doorstep long after I had left ...read more

  • An Exhortation To Importunity In Prayer

    An unjust judge, an importunate widow - and the patience of God.

    AN EXHORTATION TO IMPORTUNITY IN PRAYER. Luke 18:1-8. The Pharisees demanded of Jesus when the kingdom of God should come. Jesus’ unexpected response was that it is here already (Luke 17:20-21)! Jesus then turned to His disciples to advise them concerning what He called ‘the days of the Son of ...read more

    Importunity "UNTIL..."

    A CITY NOT FORSAKEN. Isaiah 62:6-12. I reside just outside the walls of a quaint old English city - so quaint, that there is still a civil servant who holds the office of City-crier. This is a man with a bell and a loud booming bellowing voice, who makes public announcements in public places. ...read more

    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. There God was saying, “My Word shall not return to me void, but shall accomplish that which I please, and prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” What an encouragement, I ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,947 views

    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

    A ROYAL NATIVITY: THE IN-BREAKING OF THE HOLY. Luke 2:1-20. 1. A ROYAL NATIVITY (Luke 2:1-7).

Even the hireling prophet Balaam recognised that a king was ...read more
