Numbers 26:23-65 – There is real sadness in the final words of this chapter: ‘There was not left a man of them, except Caleb and Joshua’ (65). There is also a sense of expectation. So many had died in the wilderness. This was now a new generation. We’re living in changing times. God is equipping […]
Genesis 24:22-49 Lord, we thank You that You guide us – You keep us in the right way. You lead us in the way that brings glory to You. You show us Your love. You teach us to trust in Your faithfulness. You fill our hearts with praise. You fill our lives with Your ‘overflowing […]

Numbers 23:1-30 Help us, Lord, to listen to Your Word – and speak Your Word. Help us to receive blessing from You – and to share Your blessing with others. You don’t speak Your Word to us – so that we can keep it to ourselves. Speak to us, Lord – and speak through us.
John 1:1-34 We thank You, Lord, for Your Son, Jesus – “the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29). What a wonderful thing this is – it’s the great exchange: Jesus has taken our sin, and we receive His salvation. John 1:35-2:25 Help us, Lord, to look beyond what […]

Praying Through God’s Word 2 Kings 20:1-21:18 “Carried off to Babylon” (2 Kings 20:17); “Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!” (Revelation 14:18 & 18:2). Everything seems to be falling round about us. We hear so much bad news. We wonder, “What, Lord, do You think of all this?” Even “in Babylon” there were “the chosen” […]
