God with Us 17:44

12d ago17:44

17:44

The birth of Jesus was not just a miracle pregnancy - it was God coming to us as a man! Instead of sending another prophet or angelic messenger, the Creator made himself like one he created, leaving his glory behind and coming as one who we could relate to. This "incarnation" gives us a model for ministry to others: - We don't wait for them to come…

The Providence of God in our Lives 21:05

19d ago21:05

21:05

Divine providence is the governance of God by which He, with wisdom and love, cares for and directs all things in the universe. The story of Esther is a great example of this. God in his providence: - places his agents in suitable situations for doing His work - tests his people - restrains his enemies. Esther 2:17, 3:2-6, 4:1-17, 6:1-2, 7:3-6, Pro…

Learning some "Jesus-Thinking" 17:24

26d ago17:24

17:24

Jesus demonstrated some ways of thinking that are vastly different from the way that many around us think - and the way that we may be thinking now: -Being faithful in waiting and in obscurity -Being a willing servant and sacrifice (not a "victim") -Being passionately zealous for the Kingdom of God -Looking past the pain of the present to the etern…

The Fear of the Lord 19:48

1M ago19:48

19:48

Fear of the Lord is taught in the Old & New Testament. It is a deep respect, a reverent awe of the omnipotent Creator and Sovereign Lord of the universe. Fear of the Lord leads us to honour and obey God. It leads us out from human folly and into God's wisdom. Who (or what) we fear most will determine how we live. Psalm 33:8-16, Philippians 2:12-13,…

Working with the Holy Spirit 18:19

1M ago18:19

18:19

The Holy Spirit continues the work of Jesus, empowering us, leading us and revealing things to us. Just as we are dependent on Jesus, we are dependent on the Holy Spirit and when we keep in step with the Spirit, we keep in step with Jesus. When we keep in step, we will bear fruit - our character and behaviour will change. The Holy Spirit plays a vi…

Obedience brings Fruitfulness 20:31

2M ago20:31

20:31

Disobedience can keep us from God’s good purposes; obedience leads us into them. We need to trust God when his actions, his chosen instruments and his instructions don’t make sense to us - his ways are higher than ours! The path of obedience can be difficult, even painful - but the pains are temporary while the blessings are eternal! 2 Kings 5:1-15…

Working WITH Jesus 18:37

2M ago18:37

18:37

The true Christian life is a supernaturally charged life! God himself works in us to motivate us and enable us to do the work that he has prepared for us to do. To experience this, we must learn to live in close relationship with Jesus, moving in his direction, in his time, at his pace. Daily disciplines that help us to do this are: - seeking his p…

Accountability 20:36

2M ago20:36

20:36

Accountability helps us to grow mature and fruitful. Jesus modelled accountability as Son to his Father. Accountability is built on submission - to God's authority and to godly authority. Shame and fear make us avoid accountability. A selfish heart and a "seared" conscience can make us blind to our guilt and our responsibility for it. Helpful ways …

Covenant 17:02

3M ago17:02

17:02

Jesus made a way for us to live in a covenant relationship with God. This covenant is wonderfully represented in the account of King David and Mephibosheth.

The end goal of the Kingdom of God is a wedding in heaven! It is to see the church, the Bride of Christ, a great multitude from every nation, tribe, people and language, ready for this wedding.

Dependence on God 20:20

3M ago20:20

20:20

God has provided grace through Jesus to live lives that are totally dependent on him. This grace is available to all who believe. This grace does not just save us from the consequences of sin, but also from the power of sin. It stirs us to say "yes" to godliness and "no" to ungodliness. We learn to live in humble dependence on God and we discover t…

In Pursuit of Man 19:49

3M ago19:49

19:49

Mankind was created in the image of God and enjoyed fellowship with God. When mankind broke this fellowship, God pursued them - through many people and many events. This pursuit culminated in God sending his Son, Jesus, to redeem mankind. And this pursuit continues as we obey Jesus' commission to make disciples of all nations. Genesis 1:26,27, Gene…

Celebrating our Differences 16:10

3M ago16:10

16:10

The Bible compares the church to a body - the Body of Christ. We are all part of this one body. Some parts are very different - so we can find some people hard to relate to or understand. But our differences enable us to perform different functions - all of which are essential. Let's not just tolerate those who are different, but celebrate them - a…

Communicating the Gospel 20:58

4M ago20:58

20:58

Luke 18:1…

Generation to Generation 20:12

20:12

God has taught his people to pass on to the next generation what he has revealed to them. Moses needed the practical wisdom of Jethro. Samuel needed the spiritual experience of Eli. Mary needed the revelation of Elizabeth. Caleb was ready for action at 85 years old; don't disqualify the elderly! As disciples of Jesus, we must entrust what we have l…

Stronger Together 18:53

18:53

Our new life in Christ does not mean that we won't face struggles - but we don't have to face them alone! Key questions we must answer are: -Will I humbly ask others for help? -Will I make myself available to help others? -Will I build healthy relationships with other disciples so that I can do these things? Two are better than one - we are stronge…

Church unity is beautiful and powerful! Everyone inside the community benefits - and those outside the community are drawn to this demonstration of the life of Jesus.

Growing God's Way 18:31

When we first put our faith in Jesus, we began a new life - as spiritual babies. But God intends for us to grow up into mature men and women of God who live the way that Jesus lived.

God chose Noah to rescue his family and all created animals from the flood that covered the whole earth. The only way to be rescued was to get on board the ark.

The Wheat and the Weeds 19:27

Jesus is like a farmer and the world is his field. Jesus plants his people as good seed (wheat) - but the devil also plants his people as bad seed (weeds). Jesus has intentionally planted us where we are, to bear fruit where we are. We are planted, not buried! When we are "sleepy", the devil can sow his seed in our field! Matthew 13:24-30 & 36-43, …
