2023 Devotions Week 24

FAITH AND HONOURMatthew 15, Luke 4, Mark 6 “Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.” I had problems with Jesus’ encounter with the Syro-Phoenician woman for a long time. Not just because of his hesitation to help the woman, not even his reference to …

Listening to the Word of God

Yesterday I was discussing Isaiah 44 with someone, going over the questions I had written for Week 18 (2023). He had latched onto this part, “This is what the Lord says—he who made you, who formed you in the womb” (Isaiah 44:2) and drew out the implication that as the One who created Jacob/Israel, God …

2023 Devotions Week 21

FAITH, NOT WORKSRomans 4:1-25 “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Abraham was the father of the Jews and all that the Jews enjoy from God flowed through him. God’s relationship with Abraham then is key to understanding God and how he intends to relate with all who seek him. Abraham …

THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GODRomans 2:1-3:31 “All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law …

WHO THEN IS LIKE ME?ISAIAH 44:1-46:2 No one stops to think, no one has the knowledge or understanding to say, “Half of it I used for fuel; I even baked bread over its coals, I roasted meat and I ate. Shall I make a detestable thing from what is left? Shall I bow down to …

The battle for truth today

Last week I wrote a devotion on 2 and 3 John and in the reflection at the end, I entitled it “The battle for truth”. Little did I know that that was also when the fourth Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON) met, from 17-21 April 2023, bringing together 1,302 delegates from 52 countries, including 315 …
