    This is God's work, and the order of priority in God's kingdom.

    TABLE ETIQUETTE IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD. Luke 14:1; Luke 14:7-14. One Sabbath, one of the chief Pharisees gave Jesus the courtesy of a dinner invitation. Jesus courteously accepted.

    The God Who Weeps

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 12, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,761 views

    Our resources have run out, and there is no healing balm for the malady of sin apart from the blood of Jesus.

    THE GOD WHO WEEPS. Jeremiah 8:18-22; Jeremiah 9:1. We are accustomed to referring to Jeremiah as the ‘weeping prophet’ – and rightly so. However, Jeremiah’s tears do not just speak to us about the prophet, but also about the people – and mainly about God. In that sense, we might refer to the ...read more

Jeremiah had been put in the stocks - by the church governor, no less - for having the audacity to speak the Word of the LORD in church (Jeremiah 20:1-2)!

    THE TENDER MERCY OF A JEALOUS GOD. Psalm 79:1-9.

    A PERPETUAL MEMORIAL. Exodus 12:1-14. The first time that we are told that the LORD spoke to Moses specifically ‘in Egypt’ was when He commissioned him to confront Pharaoh (Exodus 6:28).

     | 4,792 views

    We have left a God-shape hole in our lives and try to fill it with other things.

    A PLEADING. Jeremiah 2:4-13. In this passage the LORD yet again makes His complaint against the whole house of Israel (Jeremiah 2:4).
