    A Context For The Hymn

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 3, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,127 views

    The obedience of Christ elicits, draws out, the obedience of Christians.

    A CONTEXT FOR THE HYMN. Philippians 2:1-13. The word “If” that opens this passage might better be translated as “Since” (Philippians 2:1). The sense is, “If there is any encouragement in Christ (and there is), if any consolation in love (and there is), if any fellowship (sharing) in the Spirit ...read more

    A Remnant Saved

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 5, 2014
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,958 views

    A remnant saved - out of the midst of a scheming people and their leaders.

    1. DREAMING UP SCHEMES. Micah 2:1-11. The specific sins which will bring judgment upon Jerusalem are now outlined. It resonates even today with those who are familiar with the ways of commercial cities. There is the coveting of fields, and their seizure, separating a man from God's ...read more

    An Appeal In Hope.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 18, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,027 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.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,119 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
     | 1,492 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

    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

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 9, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,804 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

    O How I Love Your Word

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 28, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,006 views

    Not just reading the Scriptures, or hearing them, but speaking them, owning them!

    O HOW I LOVE YOUR WORD. Psalm 119:97-104. Psalm 119:97. The Blessed man avoids the walk of the ungodly, the stance of sinners and the seat of the scornful. ‘But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law does he meditate (both) day and night’ (cf. Psalm 1:1-2). A similar dichotomy is ...read more

    God Is Good

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 15, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,285 views

    A heart of Praise towards God.

    GOD IS GOOD. Psalm 145:8-14. “The LORD is gracious, compassionate, slow to anger, and merciful” (Psalm 145:8). This is similar to the self-revelation of the LORD to Moses (cf. Exodus 34:6). It is an integral part of Israel’s understanding of their God (cf. Numbers 14:18; Nehemiah 9:17; Jonah ...read more

    Crossing Jordan.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,750 views

    God keeps His promises to Israel as they at last enter the promised land.

    CROSSING JORDAN. Joshua 3:7-17. JOSHUA 3:7. Transition from one ministry to another is always challenging, but if the Lord’s people recognise the new incumbent as God’s man then they can agree under God to hearken to him (cf. Joshua 1:17). Moses was dead, but the LORD had appointed Joshua in his ...read more

    From Lament To Praise.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,119 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

     | 1,812 views

    The LORD will provide Himself a lamb for a burnt offering.

    THE FAITH OF ABRAHAM. Abridged. Genesis 22:1-14. Sometimes in our Christian lives we are challenged to surrender to God that which we hold most dear, that upon which we set our hopes, even that which God has given to us as a gift. God promised Abraham a son, but the patriarch’s wife ...read more

    How Long?

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 20, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,354 views

    A flow from pain through prayer to praise.

    HOW LONG? Psalm 13:1-6. This is a lament, a Psalm of complaint. This is evident from the outset, with the fourfold cry of pain, “How long?” (Psalm 13:1-2). The complaint is addressed first to the LORD (Psalm 13:1), but then seems to descend into something resembling self-pity (Psalm ...read more

    THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD AND HUMAN RESPONSIBILITY. Abridged. Matthew 11:16-19, Matthew 11:25-30 I). Matthew 11:16-19. The children were out playing on the streets. ‘Let’s play weddings,’ suggested the girls: but the boys would not. ‘Let’s play funerals,’ countered the boys: but the girls ...read more

     | 3,200 views

    Reminding our children of their rich heritage in the LORD.

    LEST THEY FORGET Psalm 78:1-7. Psalm 78 is entitled a “Maschil” of Asaph, thereby signifying an INSTRUCTION. It is one of the longest Psalms in the Book, not only outlining a history of Israel, but encouraging us to LEARN from this history (cf. Psalm 78:8). Mr. Spurgeon, in his ‘Treasury of ...read more
