• “windows in heaven” [II Kings 7:2]

    "windows in heaven" Letting the sunshine of God's love into our darkened hearts and lives. Showering upon us untold blessings and gifts from our loving heavenly Father.

  • “and I don’t know” [John 20:13(NIV)]

    "and I don't know". Never hesitate to use these words. Mary uttered them on one of the greatest occasions in history and certainly the most amazing days in her life. They relate to Mary's search for Jesus on finding the tomb empty. When you don't know, say so! Pretending to know gets nowhere. It is ... Read more

  • “you have cast all my sins behind your back” [Isaiah 38:17(RAV)]

    "you have cast all my sins behind your back". From these words it seems that Hezekiah recognised it was his sins that had made his house disorderly and caused God to issue an ultimatum to him.

  • “Let no-one lose heart” [I Samuel 17:32(NIV)]

    "Let no-one lose heart". Goliath may have been champion of the Philistines but young David was champion both for God's people and for God's cause. Thank God for young 'Davids' around today - men (and women) who are prepared to go and fight the giants of evil in the Name of the Lord. What they ... Read more

  • “THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS” [Jeremiah 23:6]

    "THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS". Here Jeremiah gives one of the names of Jehovah who was to be Saviour of Israel and of the world. Jehovah - Tsidkenu, the Lord our Righteousness. Israel was not to be saved by her godliness - rather her departure from the Lord was to prepare for the Redeemer who would ... Read more
