Blessings Follow Affliction

Genesis 41:45-57 There is a great spiritual famine in the world today. We are challenged to be like Joseph and preach the bread of life to the famished people in the earth.

The King of Glory

Psalm 24:1-10 In this glorious psalm, we consider the qualifications for those who would enter into the presence of God, and then see that Christ has fully met them on behalf of His people.

A Forgiving Heart

Genesis 45:1-15 We look at the way Joseph forgave his brothers for selling him into Egypt and see how this applies to us.

Christ Glorified in Us by Life or Death

Philippians 1:20-30 As Paul approaches the end of his earthly ministry, he is torn in his mind about departing to be with Christ (which is better by far) or remaining to minister to the church. Either way, he rejoices in the knowledge that Christ will be glorified.

Jesus Christ’s Triumphant Kingdom

Psalm 2 We meditate on this Psalm and rejoice in the truths it contains, not least of which is the certain triumph of the kingdom of Christ in this world. In the light of this, it is foolish to continue to resist Jesus’ claims on our lives.

Wise Men Worship Christ

Matthew 2:1-15 We reflect on the coming of the wise men from the east to seek for the young Christ child and to worship Him. We are challenged to seek Christ for ourselves and to serve Him with our whole lives in the coming days.

Lord, Help Me

Matthew 15:21-28 When Jesus traveled to the region of Tyre and Sidon, He was approached by a woman asking Him to cast out the demon from her daughter.

The Christian’s Warfare

Ephesians 6:10-20 We review the armor that God has given us, with which to fight the spiritual warfare in which all believers are engaged. We are reminded that this battle is not optional for the Christian, but essential.

Jesus Christ, Our High Priest

Hebrews 5:1-10 We are encouraged by a review of the teaching from the book of Hebrews, and especially from the first part of chapter 5, concerning the high priesthood of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Obedience Is Better Than Sacrifice

1 Samuel 15:1-23 God takes disobedience to His commands very seriously, as we see from the account of Saul and the Amalekites. The consequences for Saul’s greed and neglect of God’s clear commands were grave – he lost his crown, his life, and his heritage.
