    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 7, 2014
    based on 6 ratings
     | 9,217 views

    The LORD preserves all who love Him. This is the flip side of our own perseverance.

    DAVID’S PSALM OF PRAISE. Psalm 145:8-9; Psalm 145:14-21. Psalm 145:8. Proclamation. “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 (Exodus 34:6). It is an integral part of Israel’s understanding of ...read more

    Gifts given for the benefit of the Church.

    A MIND FOR SERVICE. Romans 12:3-8. Romans 12:3. “For” connects with the immediately preceding two verses, in which it has been made clear that, as an act of gratitude for God's mercy (outlined in the whole of the preceding 11 chapters), we should submit our bodies to Him as a ‘living ...read more

    The Inclusiveness Of The Church Age

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 20, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,459 views

    ALL who are in Christ Jesus are accepted by God. We have no right to refuse any whom God has received.

    THE INCLUSIVENESS OF THE CHURCH AGE. Isaiah 56:1, Isaiah 56:6-8. The idea here seems to be that the community of God’s people should “preserve justice and do righteousness” (Isaiah 56:1). The reason is not far to seek: “for My salvation is near to come, and My righteousness to be revealed”. ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,670 views

    Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and He bringeth them out of their distresses. Psalm 107 verse 28.

    THE STORM A CALM. Psalm 107:1-3. Psalm 107:1. This Psalm, from the outset, is a summons to thanksgiving. The LORD is good, and His mercy everlasting. We are perhaps quick enough to pray, to 'make our requests known unto God' (Philippians 4:6) when we are in trouble: but do we remember ...read more

    Alas For The City.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 7, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,559 views

    Is it nothing to you?

    ALAS FOR THE CITY. Lamentations 1:1-6. LAMENTATIONS 1:1. The opening word could be rendered, “Alas!” The translation “How” introduces an exclamation, but also has an element of questioning in it. We might say, “How come?” The verb “she sits” introduces “the city” as feminine, so perhaps we ...read more

     | 1,429 views

    For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

    A STRAIT BETWIXT THE TWAIN. Philippians 1:21-30. The Apostle Paul had just referred to his ‘earnest expectation and hope’ that Christ should now be ‘magnified’ in Paul’s body ‘whether by life or by death’ (cf. Philippians 1:20). Suddenly, it seems, Paul found himself in a state of ...read more

    Having no hope, and without God in the world. Ephesians 2.12.

    THE WANDERERS IN THE WILDERNESS. Psalm 107:1-9, Psalm 107:43. This Psalm is a call to thanksgiving to the LORD, “for He is good: for His mercy endures forever” (Psalm 107:1). The writer longs that those whom the LORD has redeemed, whom He has redeemed from the hand of enemy - out of the ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 11, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,230 views

    Shaping our prayers in accordance with what we know about the character of God.

    HOLY BOLDNESS AND GRACIOUS SUBMISSION. Genesis 18:20-32. This is the earliest prayer to be written down in the Bible. The prayer conversation was not initiated by Abraham, but by the LORD, who allowed Abraham to overhear His musings about the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:20-21). The ...read more

    The Bread From Heaven.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 24, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,548 views

    It is all very well seeking Jesus. But WHY?

    THE BREAD FROM HEAVEN. John 6:22-35. JOHN 6:22-24. The details of these verses set the scene for the conversation which immediately follows. The people saw the disciples getting into the boat, but had lost sight of Jesus (John 6:22). Meantime other boats had come over from Tiberias to a place ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 219 views

    A prayer for guidance.

    WORDS AND MEDITATION. Psalm 5:1-8. PSALM 5:1. David longs for a hearing from the LORD: “Give ear to my words, O LORD” (cf. Psalm 54:2; Psalm 55:1). Then he adds, “consider my meditation.” We see the same combination of words and meditation in the well-known quotation from Psalm 19:14. If we ...read more

     | 10,337 views

    If God be for us, who can be against us?

    CALLED TO BE CONQUERORS, CONFORMED TO CHRIST. Romans 8:26-39. We are, it seems, surrounded by “infirmities” (Romans 8:26). These may be caused by lack of strength (which is what the word means), emotional weakness (including ‘burnout’), financial hardships, sickness, or sin. Paul also speaks of ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 21, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,045 views

    Wisdom's plaintive plea. The danger of refusal. A promise to those who will hear.

    THE ALLURE OF WISDOM. Proverbs 1:20-33. One day I was out shopping on one of the pedestrianised streets of Norwich, England, when a sudden commotion stopped me in my tracks. The City Crier’s vigorous ringing of his hand-bell, and his cry of ‘Oh Yay! Oh Yay!’ seemed to be right in my ear, and ...read more

     | 3,558 views

    The gentleness, love and self-sacrifice of a mother.

    A PASTORAL HEART. 1 Thessalonians 2:1-8. Having favourably described the Thessalonians’ reception of the gospel message (1 Thessalonians 1:5-7), Paul now speaks of that first encounter from the point of view of the messengers. 1 Thessalonians 2:1. “For you yourselves know, brethren, that ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 971 views

    All our actions should be regulated by the word of God.

    THE ARK BROUGHT UP TO JERUSALEM. 2 Samuel 6:1-5, 2 Samuel 6:12-19. No sooner had David been anointed king over all Israel, than the Philistines came up against him. David’s instinct back then was to ‘enquire of the LORD’ as to what he should do (cf. 2 Samuel 5:17-19). And David ‘did as the LORD ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,352 views

    The key word in this stanza of the Psalm is righteous/ righteousness. The word appears five times in the section.

    THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD. Psalm 119:137-144. PSALM 119:137. “Righteous art thou, O LORD, and upright are thy judgments.” “Righteous art thou, O LORD,” is a declaration of the righteousness of God. And because He is righteous, all His “judgments” are “upright,” or “just.” Thus ...read more
