Daily Spiritual Reflection

Romans 13:11-14 We consider the importance of allowing the things we do every day to remind us of our spiritual duties. Paul gives us several examples of this in the text.

The Pleasure of Knowing God, Part 1

Psalm 36 Having seen last week that the Lord alone can satisfy, and that we must walk with Him if we are to find that satisfaction, we consider what He gives that is so satisfying; something that is more satisfying than anything the unbeliever can ever possess.

The Book of Revelation – Chapter 13, Part 1

Revelation 13:1-10 We break new ground in our study of the book of Revelation, looking at chapter 13 from the perspective that it deals mainly with the events leading up to the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD.

An Easy Yoke

Matthew 11:30 We saw this morning that the life of least regrets for the believer is one that consists as far as possible in obedience to the commandments He gives.

A Life without Regret

Psalm 119:80 We focus on the living the kind of lives (as believers) that will lead to us having least regrets on the day of our death and then on the Day of Judgment. We see that this is a life lived according to God’s Law.

Revelation – Review, Part 3

We continue our review of the book of Revelation from the perspective that it deals mainly with the events leading up to the destruction of the Temple in 70 A.D.

How to Receive the Desires of Your Heart

Psalm 37:3-7 Having seen that the human heart cannot be satisfied with the things of this world but only in the Lord, we now reflect on how we may do this from a practical standpoint. David tells us that our satisfaction will come as we walk with the Lord.

My Soul Is Satisfied

Psalm 63:5 Have you learned the secret of contentment? Is God’s love through Jesus Christ enough to satisfy you? We consider that: #The things of the world can never satisfy the human heart. #Only God is able to do this for us.

Revelation – Review, Part 2

We continue our review of the book of Revelation from the perspective that it deals mainly with the events leading up to the destruction of the Temple in 70 A.D.

Why Do You Call Him Lord?

Luke 6:46 Continuing the theme from the message this morning, we see that sowing to the Spirit is more than simply a matter of availing ourselves of the means of grace; it is also a matter of living in obedience to the Lord.

The Gospel is Preached to the Poor

Matthew 11:1-6 We see the last sign that Jesus points to to authenticate Himself as the Messiah – that the poor have the Gospel preached to them. We consider that Jesus’ message was preached to those who were brokenhearted and mourning over their sin.
