  • “pray for those who persecute you” [Matthew 5:44(NIV)]

    "pray for those who persecute you". This should not be merely that they may cease the opposition, our prayer should be that persecutors will turn into proclaimers - telling what God has done for them and how they have been changed after meeting with the Lord. It is very likely that many were praying in ... Read more

  • “God our Saviour” [I Timothy 2:3]

    "God our Saviour". The most wonderful revelation about God is that He became our Saviour. God is far greater than we can picture or imagine, yet the Bible says that He is not far from any one of us. To save us He needed to stoop right down to where we were. Love was the ... Read more

  • “To whom then will you liken God? ” [Isaiah 40:18(RAV)]

    "To whom then will you liken God? ". Any who would do justice to the answer should read the ensuing verses written by the prophet Isaiah in this chapter. They are a salient reminder to those who consider God to be as a man, and a disinterested one at that. God will not be manipulated ... Read more

  • “Hear him! ” [Matthew 17:5(RAV)]

    "Hear him! ". God Who gave His only Son to save the world is anxious that men and women in all generations should hear and give heed to what He says. The words of Jesus uttered on the hills of Palestine have been carefully preserved in the four Gospels and their message carried out by ... Read more

  • “they heard the voice of the Lord God” [Genesis 3:8]

    "they heard the voice of the Lord God". God called Adam and Eve before He came down to walk with them in the Garden of Eden. And even when they had disobeyed they heard his voice calling. He still calls today. Though God is hidden to our eye, His voice may still be heard. That ... Read more

  • “But we see Jesus” [Hebrews 2:9]

    "But we see Jesus". Many things in life we cannot see and many things we can see we cannot understand. The reason why things are as they are baffles the mind of man. As the Apostle Paul wrote, 'We see through a glass darkly'. If left like this, it would present a forlorn picture. But ... Read more

  • “if he lose one” [Luke 15:4]

    "if he lose one". The loss was only temporary: all the shepherd's energy and resources were concentrated upon finding the lost lamb. In another Gospel Jesus prayed to His Father that none of those given to Him had been lost. So we see that the 'search and find' operations mounted for those that strayed had ... Read more

  • “Blessed be the Lord for evermore. Amen, and Amen” [Psalm 89:52]

    "Blessed be the Lord for evermore. Amen, and Amen". This is the exultant conclusion to a psalm of praise. It is a long psalm and covers much ground and concludes as though the Psalmist is saying that we should go on praising Him for ever. So we should! The praising heart has a contented life, ...

  • “she stood in the doorway” [II Kings 4:15(RAV)]

    "she stood in the doorway". Did this Shunammite woman fill the doorway, waiting to receive what she needed? Was she like Jacob who wrestled with the angel and at daybreak when the angel wanted to depart, would not let him go until he blessed him. She was a dominant character having got her husband to ...
