Numbers 20:1-29 We thank You, Lord, that Your Son, Jesus is “the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). When everything around us seems to be changing, help us to remember that Jesus, our Saviour, is unchanged, unchanging and unchangeable in the great love that He has for us and the amazing grace that […]
2 Kings 18:1-37 – Hezekiah ‘held fast to the Lord; he did not depart from following Him…’ (6). We give up so easily. We start well, then we lose our way. We don’t stick at it. Some people are all smiles – when things are going well. When the going gets tough, they lose their […]
Exodus 23:1-33 – God is love: He loves ‘the stranger’ (9). God is holy: He ‘will not acquit the wicked’ (7). He wants to reproduce His love and holiness – in us. Not holiness without love: that is self-righteous legalism. Not love without holiness: that is spineless sentimentalism. To Israel, He sent ‘an angel…’ (20). […]

EXODUS 29:10-46 – There is a great contrast between the many sacrifices of the Old Testament and the one sacrifice of Christ (Hebrews 9:25-28; 10:1-4, 10-14). Looking to Christ, we focus attention on verses 42-46. For God’s people, ‘the tent of meeting’ was a special place concerning which God said, ‘I will meet with you, […]
Job 13:1-14:22 – When you don’t really know what you’re talking about, it’s a case of the less said the better. That’s how Job feels about his ‘friends’ – ‘Oh that would you keep silent, and it would be your wisdom!’ (13:5). They are no help to him. What does he do next? He takes […]
Numbers 21:1-35 We thank You, Lord, for Your great salvation. Nothing comes from ourselves: nothing but our sin – our need of Your salvation. Everything comes from Jesus, our wonderful Saviour. Salvation is never our achievement. It’s always Your gift. Help us, Lord, to say with all our heart, “To God be the glory!” Help us […]
2 KINGS 1:1-2:13 – ‘He took up the mantle of Elijah’ (2:13). Elijah’s ministry had ended. Elisha’s ministry was about to begin. It was the beginning of a new era. This may have been a new ministry. It was not, however, a new message. Both men preached the Word of the Lord. Elisha continued Elijah’s […]
Deuteronomy 27:11-28:24 Lord, You speak to us Your Word of warning – and Your promise of blessing. You call us back from the way of disobedience – and on to the pathway of obedience and blessing. Where does the blessing come from? Does it come from our obedience? No! It comes from Your love. It comes […]
Genesis 19:1-29 In Genesis 3, we read of humanity’s fall into sin. Here, we see the awfulness of human sin and the awesomeness of divine judgment. We must take God with the utmost seriousness. If we refuse to take Him seriously, He will continue to take us seriously – in His judgment! Sin leads to […]
