SUMMARY:"You have stayed long enough at this mountain"    [Deuteronomy 1:6(NIV)]
DESCRIPTION:“You have stayed long enough at this mountain”.  Some of us can settle down and be comfortable anywhere. But a halfway house is not for permanent residence.\nThe Children of Israel lingered too long at Mount Horeb and the Lord had to tell Moses to get them on their way to the Promised Land. A “sit-down” should only be for a short rest. Relaxed and restful is not advancing you on the path God has ordained for you to walk.\nSome sit down and never get up again – they stay so long they lose all desire. Some wait for others to join them or for the moving of waters that never takes place. Many are content with a limited blessing and see no need to advance further.\nLet us be up and going when we are told to move forward.

SUMMARY:"Apply your mind to instruction and your ear to words of knowledge"  [Proverbs 23:12(RSV)]
DESCRIPTION:“Apply your mind to instruction and your ear to words of knowledge”.  Learning comes more easily to some than others. Some find no difficulty in paying attention while others have thoughts that wander all too easily. Learning about the Lord is the highest application for the mind and attention to His voice will produce the deepest knowledge. Any who think that such treasure can be found without application must surely be mistaken and we might add that “growing in grace” does involve sitting at the feet of the Master and learning of Him.\nBeing still\, putting other matters out of mind\, avoiding interruption\, training the mind to listen and to pray are some of the qualities that are in our own power to develop in readiness for heavenly wisdom that the Lord would give us and which brings true peace and contentment.

SUMMARY:"live by the Spirit\, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature"  [Galatians 5:16(RAV)]
DESCRIPTION:“live by the Spirit\, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature”.  Think and act positively expecting the new life in the Spirit to kill the desires of the flesh. Go on the offensive\, be strong in the Lord. Draw your strength and pleasure from Him. Don’t entertain the devil for one moment. Filled with the Spirit means no room for anything else.  Know satisfaction in Christ and you will not look longingly at any aspect of the world.\nLife in the Spirit is an on-going experience. Directed and protected\, instructed in all you do\, seek ever to please Him.\nThere is a certainty about the statement – not most likely or if all goes well\, but you will not gratify the sinful nature. And is not this what\, as a true Christian\, you need!

SUMMARY:"we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard"   [Acts 4:20(NIV)]
DESCRIPTION:“we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard”.  You can’t keep quiet: what has happened directs your mind and governs your tongue. You know that if God can bless you\, He can bless anybody and you tell them so.\nIt has been so wonderful to experience the Lord at work that you talk and testify about it and expect to see the same happening to others. It does happen\, because Jesus meets the deepest need of the heart of man. And when you see that talking about Him provides an introduction and somebody responds\, you want to talk to more. That is the great joy of following Jesus – becoming a fisher of men\, pulling them out of sin’s mire.\nIt makes it all so sad when you meet those who did witness\, but now keep quiet. Don’t emulate them.

SUMMARY:"faith as small as a mustard seed"  [Luke 17:6(NIV)]
DESCRIPTION:“faith as small as a mustard seed”.  The disciples had asked Jesus to increase their faith. It was as if they thought Jesus was responsible for their level of faith. Jesus put the onus back on them.\nIt is not so much about how much faith we have but rather what we do with the faith that we have. Faith grows as it is exercised.\nWhat’s more\, if the little faith that we have is in a great God\, then it’s surprising how much a little faith can achieve! The focus of our attention needs to be on what the Lord is able to do rather than on what little faith we might have. We are simply channels through which His power is able to flow. Step out today\, with faith in the Lord and let Him work in and through you.

SUMMARY:"Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged"      [Joshua 8:1(NIV)]
DESCRIPTION:“Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged”.  These were God’s words to Joshua and that made all the difference. We are afraid and become discouraged because we do not know and cannot see God’s plan.\nGod says “Do not be afraid” because those who follow Him have nothing to fear. Fear will be fuelled by the devil: trust is built on faith and these are gifts of God.\nJoshua was fearful and discouraged by past failure and defeat at the battle of Ai. But the sins of Achan had been dealt with. Whatever the mistakes and failings of your past\, if dealt with by confession and the cleansing of the blood of Jesus\, you need have no fear. When fear is done away the cause for discouragement disappears too. Look to the Lord to give you this victory today.

SUMMARY:"now he commands all men everywhere to repent"  [Acts 17:30(RAV)]
DESCRIPTION:“now he commands all men everywhere to repent”.  These words are taken from the Apostle Paul’s sermon on Mars Hill Athens\, after he had seen the altar they had erected “to the Unknown God.” He told of the true God’s dealings with men in time past. Now\, since Jesus came\, God is looking for those who will repent and turn from their evil and superstitious ways.\nThis is the first step to receiving the gospel\, believing in Christ and being saved. It is like a right-about turn. It calls for renouncing the wrong and it can attract ridicule and opposition from those who will not turn themselves. By very nature it is a definite act and it is the important step in the right direction.\nWithout it\, the would-be Christian is walking backwards.

SUMMARY:"Great peace have those who love your law"   [Psalm 119:165(NIV)]
DESCRIPTION:“Great peace have those who love your law”.  Great peace ensues once a soul recognises God’s law\, and especially when that soul hears God speaking through His word. The trespasser must always be wary of the landowner catching him\, the transgressor of being found out. Neither can ever really be at rest.\nReligion wherever and in whatever form it is found could be described as man’s attempt to appease and please God. That person who sincerely desires to find the truth must rejoice in the Word of God. God could not speak more clearly than through the inspired page conveyed to the heart of the reader or hearer by the Holy Spirit.\nThose who know the Lord\, love to hear His voice: His voice brings deep peace.

SUMMARY:"By faith the walls of Jericho fell down"   [Hebrews 11:30]
DESCRIPTION:“By faith the walls of Jericho fell down”.  The faith was in the hearts of Joshua and the Children of Israel who marched around the city day after day for a whole week. They encompassed the city seven times the seventh day\, blew their trumpets and shouted with a great shout. Not an arrow was fired: no swords clashed. Whoever heard of a great city captured in this way? It was contrary to reason. But God had spoken and His followers believed and implicitly enacted what He said. Walls still fall flat when God’s children obey His voice and let faith triumph over reason – walls of indifference\, opposition\, ungodliness. The devil may have spent years erecting and fortifying but the deliverance of faith can fell them in a moment.

SUMMARY:"Search the scriptures"    [John 5:39]
DESCRIPTION:“Search the scriptures”.  Jesus spoke these words to those who were teachers of the Law and should be fully conversant with Scriptures. They read these Scriptures but not with enlightened vision. So they did not recognise Christ when He came.\nAll men need to be careful they do not treat the Scriptures as an old study book\, suitable for only enquiry and debate. Men in need of salvation can find the Saviour\, of help can find the Comforter\, of faith can find the everlasting arms.\nThe deepest need of your soul can be found in Christ and you will find Christ in the Scriptures. That divinely inspired volume is given that you might look into it and find lasting treasure. Make reading it your daily search.

SUMMARY:"Who has determined the course of history? "   [Isaiah 41:4(GNB)]
DESCRIPTION:“Who has determined the course of history? “.  God determined history and carried it out. Sending His Son into our world He fulfilled Old Testament prophecy.\nThe Incarnation\, when God took upon Himself our likeness in the Person of His Only Son\, altered the course of history for all time. Men no longer look forward to a promised deliverer but back to a Saviour and Redeemer.\nThe direction of all things was changed when Christ died for our sins. No longer in decline\, those who come to Him can know that ascendancy that only the Spirit can give.\nJesus ascended back to heaven but ministers in countless lives of His followers by the work of the Spirit – directing and determining the course of history!

SUMMARY:"The hope of the righteous shall be gladness"   [Proverbs 10:28]
DESCRIPTION:“The hope of the righteous shall be gladness”.  Hopes and aspirations can change quite considerably as life goes on. When we think of some of the things we hoped for we wonder where our sense was.\nHope can fade – in later years it generally does: to see it fade in a younger person is sadness indeed.\nHopes are sometimes dashed – usually bringing a period of remorse from which we sometimes despair of ever emerging.\nThose who do what is right shall know a hope that brings gladness – even though it is at times eclipsed by present sorrow and stress.\nThose who do what is right turn to God for wisdom and guidance: recognising their own inadequacy and weakness they make the Lord their strength.

SUMMARY:"Does a person gain anything if he wins the whole world but loses his life? "   [Mark 8:36(GNB)]
DESCRIPTION:“Does a person gain anything if he wins the whole world but loses his life? “.  Life is as valued by the beggar as it is the prince\, though in vastly contrasting ways.\nThe world is valuable but in real terms only if you can enjoy and benefit from it. If you have to barter your life to gain the world it is a loss whichever way you look at it. Without the hope of eternal life offered to us in Christ\, mortal life at best is all too short -for many holding hardship and suffering.\nIn spite of this\, many spend their years chasing the bubble of this world’s pleasure\, or hollow acclaim of its glory.\nBring divine reckoning into the equation of life. Consider the eternal life in Jesus Christ. Allow the Holy Spirit to direct your thinking. Those who realise the truth and reject it must have the greater condemnation.

SUMMARY:"Because I live\, you will live also"   [John 14:19(RAV)]
DESCRIPTION:“Because I live\, you will live also”.  The truth that Jesus is alive infuses life into every one of His followers.\nThe day of His resurrection poured a flood of light on those dark days at Calvary. He died to save us\, He lives to intercede for us. We can expect and experience new life in Christ because Jesus is alive. Death has no more hold upon Him.\nJesus is the Mighty Conqueror and His followers can triumph in the life He gives. Not born again to the same old life and routine\, but born of the Spirit to love and serve the Lord.\nYou “live also” is in the resurrection life of Jesus. The life of the believer is guaranteed by a living Lord.

SUMMARY:"my flesh shall rest in hope"  [Acts 2:26]
DESCRIPTION:“my flesh shall rest in hope”.  Naturally speaking my body\, or my flesh is slowly dying. I am trying to get done all I can before my last breath heralds an enforced rest.  But he whose hope is in the Lord knows One who rose again triumphant from the grave: mightily and victoriously overcoming the last enemy which is death.\nThe New Testament describes the soul of the believer as “asleep in Jesus” when at rest in the grave. The hope of the resurrection burns on. Their resting is only until the number of the redeemed is complete.\nBecause Jesus lives His followers will live also – in perfect bliss and fulfilment of eternal life. It is decreed I must lay down my sword\, but let it be known that when I do so\, I rest in hope of the glory of God.

SUMMARY:"my God shall supply"     [Philippians 4:19]
DESCRIPTION:“my God shall supply”.  We know all the riches of heaven are His. Scripture tells us that He owns the cattle on a thousand hills and the wealth of every mine. He created all things and upholds them.\nHis storehouse holds more than Joseph’s in Egypt\, His wisdom far exceeds that of Solomon and His patience that of Job. There is no doubt He owns everything: no need we have He is unable to meet.\nMore than that He can supply\, the blessing of the short message in today’s verse is that He will supply. There need be no delay\, no hold-up\, no blockage or breakdown in communication.\nGod’s supply will reach you and your life will achieve the purpose He has for you and one day you will see the full extent of His blessing for you.

SUMMARY:"why has all this happened to us? "     [Judges 6:13(NIV)]
DESCRIPTION:“why has all this happened to us? “.  This was Gideon’s question when the angel told him that the Lord was with him. He wanted to know why he needed to thresh his wheat in the winepress because of the invading Midianites. He asked where all the wonders he heard about had gone: why had the Lord abandoned the nation of Israel?\n“Why has all this happened?” is a question often heard today and it is one that is best answered from the Word of God where we find God’s purpose in the affairs of men.\nWe cannot expect an answer to all our questions\, but when we recognise that God is at work and that His purposes are for our good and that a day is coming when the obscure things will be made plain\, we have confidence that all things are working for the good of those who love Him.

SUMMARY:"knowing what had happened to her"  [Mark 5:33 (NIV)]
DESCRIPTION:“knowing what had happened to her”.  Just as the Lord knew that power had gone out from Him\, so this lady knew that power had rushed into her and she knew that she had been healed. There was no need for the doctors to examine her\, no need to get a certificate of health. ‘She felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.’ She was unnoticed\, except by Jesus\, but not unaware that something had happened. Knowing this for herself\, she is helped to make it known to others. When the Lord touches our lives\, we’ll know about it. The Holy Spirit will confirm with our spirit that He is at work. However recent the touch of the Lord has been in your life\, there’s no better time than now to share it with others and have your faith affirmed.

DESCRIPTION:“Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed”.  Might we have some surprises if we did this?\nWould many fiascos in which we engage have been nipped in the bud\, if we had carefully sought the Lord’s counsel before embarking upon them?  On the other hand\, many of those dwarf bushes we see all around would have become like cedars of Lebanon with God’s blessing if we had sincerely sought it.\nToo many Christians make prayer like the counter in a repair shop – the place where all the spiritual breakages are taken.\nNo matter how convinced about its success you are\, take every plan to the Lord for His approval BEFORE it leaves the drawing board.

SUMMARY:"how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God"  [Mark 10:24]
DESCRIPTION:“how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God”.  This is because you can’t trust your riches and trust the Lord. You should know that to trust riches is failure in the long run\, but most ignore this. The Bible says that the love of money is the root of all evil. There must be a willingness to forego this world’s riches to find Christ.  Until this is done you may be like the merchant with many pearls but as yet without the pearl of great price. So the difficulty for many intelligent\, educated and experienced people\, is not to adapt to the narrow way described by Jesus. It is to let slip the gaudy glitter of this world’s treasure.\nBut the choice is there. Hang on to this world as long as you can\, yet you will lose it someday. Take Christ and you will receive eternal life.

SUMMARY:"the books were opened"    [Revelation 20:12]
DESCRIPTION:“the books were opened”.  God keeps a record and we can be sure that His record is accurate and complete. His judgment will be final\, for He is Sovereign.\nThat we get so far into the book of the Revelation before the books were opened could mean that there were those who thought they would never be opened – as many do today. Yet this verse shows us that it is not just a record to be used if needed.\nJohn saw the dead\, small and great\, stand before God. They were judged according to what they had done. The book specially featured in his vision is the book of life – the volume Jesus talked about\, telling us that to have our names written there is the greatest cause for rejoicing. To those who receive Him there is no condemnation.

SUMMARY:"Barnabas departed for Tarsus to seek Saul"   [Acts 11:25(RAV)]
DESCRIPTION:“Barnabas departed for Tarsus to seek Saul”.  You couldn’t have found a kinder man. He was both a source of consolation\, as his name means\, and an encouragement. Saul owes his being launched into his mission to the Gentiles to Barnabas because he came and sought him out for the task.\nLess gentle brethren\, even Saul (later Paul) found it hard to go along with this loving\, forgiving brother. But Barnabas persisted in his gracious approach and it was seen to bring others back to line who had wandered astray – notably John Mark whom Paul later acknowledged to be a valued brother.\nBarnabas was a man of foresight. He could see what was needed and could pick the man who would meet that need. Hence his journey to fetch Saul.\nWe need more like Barnabas today.

SUMMARY:"Yet I will rejoice in the Lord"    [Habakkuk 3:18]
DESCRIPTION:“Yet I will rejoice in the Lord”.  Our situations and circumstances will change. Things happen that we have little\, if any\, control over which can deeply affect us. Like Israel\, facing imminent captivity\, life may look very bleak at times\, but our circumstances must not prevent us from rejoicing in the Lord. He is still our God and Saviour. Is our praise of Him dependent on things going well for us? Should we not praise Him for who He is? We may prefer good times to bad\, but the Israelites became complacent during the years of plenty and forgot the Lord their God. The Lord knows that through hard times our experience of Him can be so much deeper. Praising God when life hurts produces a blessing that cannot be had when life is easy. Try it today and let the Holy Spirit lift you up.

SUMMARY:"if we neglect"     [Hebrews 2:3]
DESCRIPTION:p>“if we neglect”.  It is the easiest thing to do because it is doing nothing. Conscientious people do not easily succumb to it\, though the pressures of modern life can cause them to fail on this point.\nThe neglect that the writer is referring to happens when men and women do not seek the Lord and or familiarise themselves with what He is saying and asking them to do.\nThe Bible makes it clear that there is no escaping the judgment that awaits those who neglect God’s salvation. It is rather like ignoring the life raft when the call has been given to abandon the sinking ship.\nNeglect relates to the step of trusting Christ for salvation\, and that of obedience to His voice day by day.\nLet it be that knowing the consequences ensures we do not make this mistake.

SUMMARY:"your work of faith"    [I Thessalonians 1:3]
DESCRIPTION:“your work of faith”.  Faith is much more than a vague wish. Faith leads to action that produces results. But it’s not about how much faith we have but rather who our faith is in. As someone once said\, “It’s not whether you have great faith in God but that you have faith in a great God.” Many today put their faith in other men\, in science or technology. But all these will let us down\, however much faith is put into them. But the ‘mustard seed’ of faith in Christ\, can achieve a work for God that will last into eternity.\nFaith is encouraged as it is applied and is rewarded as it is demonstrated. All who came in faith to Jesus\, however tentative\, received the assurance that their faith had brought healing and salvation.

SUMMARY:"Lord\, you have been our dwelling-place in all generations"    [Psalm 90:1(RAV)]
DESCRIPTION:“Lord\, you have been our dwelling-place in all generations”.  Many generations have crossed the stage of time since the Psalmist uttered these words. Not one has found them to be untrue. Customs and habits\, behaviour and dress change but God is there. Ever the same; true to His word: reaching out toward us when we seek to pass by.\nWe should draw upon the silent testimony of those who have gone before. Making mistakes as we do\, having their doubts and fears\, surrounded by evil and temptation\, they would all give testimony to the truth written that God is there.\nWe need to turn aside as Moses did when confronted with the burning bush or fall to the ground as Saul did on the Damascus Road and see that God is calling us to the safety of faith and trust in Him.

SUMMARY:"Watch … and pray"    [Mark 14:38]
DESCRIPTION:“Watch … and pray”.  The three disciples had opportunity to witness the greatest drama of all time as Jesus wrestled in prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane\, but they fell asleep. One of the greatest conflicts known took place in that Garden\, but it mattered little to them for they slept through it.\nJesus wanted them to see His agony and to support Him with prayer. He felt\, as we do when faced with a crisis\, the need to know others are standing with us in prayer.  To pray intelligently and directly there must be an awareness of what is going on and some idea about the reason for it. Fervent prayer needs stimulation.\nThe disciples’ signal failure on this occasion caused Jesus to issue this exhortation to watch and pray. It is recorded for us all: let us seek to heed it.

SUMMARY:"whatever my God says\, that I will speak"  [II Chronicles 18:13(RAV)]
DESCRIPTION:“whatever my God says\, that I will speak”.  The first thing to note is that Micaiah was in touch with God. He received guidance\, counsel and instruction to pass onto others.\nThe second thing is that Micaiah conveyed what he heard faithfully and fearlessly\, even though his was a lone voice in the world of prophesying what was to happen.  Error creeps in when God’s servants do not fully convey the truth entrusted to them. Watering down the milk of the Word makes for weak Christians.\nDoing what God told him was more important to Micaiah than giving his hearers what they wanted.\nThe church needs and the world admires steadfast disciples who refuse to be moved from the truth of their convictions.

SUMMARY:"Give us day by day our daily bread"    [Luke 11:3]
DESCRIPTION:“Give us day by day our daily bread”.  Asking for one’s daily bread assumes that one is dependent upon God for it. The labourer may toil to gather the harvest\, but it is with strength the Lord gives\, he does so and it is God’s law of nature he is harnessing. Requesting daily bread in this way demands that we acknowledge it is not ours by right. It is likely that a shortage of it conveys a greater appreciation of it and those who cry most earnestly for it must draw nearer to God as a result. We can neither presume to be given the day nor the bread to sustain us in it.\nBread refers to the basis of any staple diet – it can be rice in some areas. And when millions undernourished are praying this prayer\, those who have enough and to spare should not be surprised if an instruction comes to share it with their brother.

SUMMARY:"The things which God has prepared for those who love him"  [I Corinthians 2:9(RAV)]
DESCRIPTION:“The things which God has prepared for those who love him”.  Many biographies have been written about men and women who have devoted themselves to Christ and given their lives in His Service. But no volume\, or library of volumes\, could describe the preparation God has made for those who respond to His love in Christ.\nNot only have the details of the preparation been kept secret\, but the heart of man could not comprehend them if they were published. It is only when mortality puts on immortality and our comprehension expands into eternity that we shall appreciate what the Lord has done.\nYet the Holy Spirit reveals the things of God to us. They may be impossible to describe\, words defy translation\, but exultation in the Spirit is a foretaste of heaven.
