I have something to say…
And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” So he said, “Teacher, say it.” Luke 7:40 I read this passage of Scripture this morning and it really got me thinking about how Jesus approached Simon with an important truth that he wanted Simon to hear and understand. Jesus…

Deception – The Gibeonites Story
It’s #ThrowbackThursday and so I thought today I would publish one of my most regularly viewed posts which just so happens to be (to my pleasant surprise) this story from the Old Testament.

A plea for Deliverance and Forgiveness
To You, O Lord, I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in You; Let me not be ashamed; Let not my enemies triumph over me. Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed; Let those be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause. Show me Your ways, O Lord; Teach me…

Joseph – Hero of the Faith (5)
As we have already seen in the previous post, Joseph demonstrated patience and long suffering through his troubles, which is a fruit of the Holy Spirit of God.

Six Things…no wait 7
Ephesians 5:8-10 – “Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases God” As followers of Jesus we are to live our lives in a way that is pleasing to God. The bible tells us about 6 things, actually 7 behaviours…

Condemnation
I don’t know about you but I really don’t like the word Condemnation. Judges use it when passing sentences on an accused who has been found guilty and sentenced to a punishment which can include death. It must be a terrible thing to be condemned especially to death. The bible tells us that the wages…

Jesus the Lamb of God
The shouts of heaven still continue to declare: All Hail the Lamb; All Hail the Lamb; He is the darling of heaven; He is crowned with many crowns; At His name every knee will bow; He is all majesty and power; His eyes are like a flaming torch; He is TRUTH and LOVE; On His…

Psalm 55 – Betrayed by Friends? Trust in God
If you have never read Psalm 55 then I recommend a read. It is an amazing Psalm. David just pours out the hurt, pain & anger he feels over being betrayed. You can really feel the pain behind the words. It is raw and real. He puts his broken heart out there and the emotion…
