    Crossing Jordan.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,829 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.

     | 1,203 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

    He Heard My Voice.

    He loosed my bonds.

    HE HEARD MY VOICE. Psalm 116:1-2, Psalm 116:12-19. If I was asked why I love the LORD, I might well answer: because He heard and answered my prayer (Psalm 116:1). Yet this may, at first glance, appear self-serving: what would I have to say for myself if my prayers had not been answered in the ...read more

    But God...

    Romans 5:8 - “But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

    BUT GOD... Romans 5:1-8. ROMANS 5:1. The “Therefore” of Romans 5:1 links with the argument in the previous chapter, whereby it is established that ‘to him who does not work (to establish his own salvation) but believes (like Abraham) on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted as ...read more

    David Lets His Guard Down.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 933 views

    A downward spiral with inevitable consequences.

    DAVID LETS HIS GUARD DOWN. 2 Samuel 11:1-15. “At the time when kings go forth” (to battle), “David tarried still at Jerusalem.” (2 SAMUEL 11:1). Sending his nephew Joab may have seemed like a good idea at the time, but this constituted a dereliction of duty which put David in the wrong place at ...read more

    A Naughty Question.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 773 views

    'For the hardness of your heart he wrote this precept' (Mark 10:5).

    A NAUGHTY QUESTION. Mark 10:2-12. The Pharisees’ question about divorce was worse than mischievous in that it, like many of their questions addressed to Jesus, was asked with the intention of “tempting” Jesus into saying something that would cause offence (MARK 10:2). I assert this on two ...read more

    Where Were You?

     | 1,059 views

    Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Job 38:4.

    WHERE WERE YOU? Job 38:1-11. After all the crying and sighing, moaning, and groaning of Job (and I do not blame him for it); after all the blaming and shaming, sharing and tearing of his ‘miserable comforters’ (Job 16:2): “Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind” (Job 38:1). ...read more

     | 2,023 views

    He is not ashamed to call us brethren.

    JESUS BORN TO DIE. Hebrews 2:5-12. The writer to the Hebrew Christians has been demonstrating, from Scripture, Jesus’ superiority to the angels. Of the angels he says, ‘Are they not all ministering spirits being sent forth for service on behalf of those being about to inherit salvation?’ ...read more

     | 1,957 views

    Acknowledging woman as the complement of man.

    NOT GOOD TO BE ALONE. Genesis 2:18-24. Man is not just another animal. Both physically, and morally, ‘Man was made upright’ (Ecclesiastes 7:29). After all, man was made in the image of God (Genesis 1:26-27). God ‘breathed into his nostrils the breath of life’ (Genesis 2:7). (‘Breath’, ...read more

    A Song To The God Of Creation.

    The multifarious Creation by the One who dwells in impenetrable Light.

    A SONG TO THE GOD OF CREATION. Psalm 104:1-9, Psalm 104:24, Psalm 104:35c. The opening of this Psalm, “Bless the LORD, O my soul” (Psalm 104:1a), is familiar from the beginning of the previous chapter (Psalm 103:1). The response of the Psalmist to his own exhortation to “Bless the ...read more

    The restoration of Job.

    A NEW VISION OF GOD, AND THE RESTORATION OF JOB. Job 42:1-6; Job 42:10-17. The prose narrative bookends of the epic poem which is the Book of Job provide us at either end with the same judgment of Job’s character. Twice in the first two chapters the LORD taunts Satan with the integrity of Job ...read more

    An Appeal In Hope.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 18, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,074 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.

     | 1,171 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

     | 1,295 views

    "He sent a man before them." Psalm 105.17.

    FROM PRISON TO PREMIERSHIP. Psalm 105:16-22. PSALM 105:16. It is the LORD our God who “called for a famine upon the land: He brake the whole staff of bread.” Bread, or any staple, is aptly called ‘the staff of life’ – for without his staff man must surely fall. But such things are in the hands ...read more

     | 1,541 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
