TASTE AND SEEPSALM 34:1-22 You cannot know God by singing songs to him. You cannot know God by listening to sermons. I dare say that you cannot know God by studying the bible. You have to walk with him. Once you know him in your life’s experience, those songs you sing become real and meaningful …

THE CHRISTIAN LIFECOLOSSIANS 2:6-7 In the previous week, we were urged by the Word of God to take hold of the life for which Jesus took hold of us. Colossians 2:6-7 sum up succinctly what that means. Firstly the foundation, which is the Gospel. Jesus sacrificed himself to cancel out my debt of sin, past, …

I PRESS ONHEBREWS 12:1-2, 1 CORINTHIANS 9:24-27, PHILIPPIANS 3:10-14 “I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.” Jesus took hold of me. He grabbed me and held on tightly. He refused to let me go. Even though it brought him to the pain of the cross. Even …

ABRAHAM: OUR FOREFATHER IN FAITHGenesis 11, 12, 15, 17 Knowing what we know, this side of the cross, it is awesome to see God putting his plan in motion thousands of years before, by approaching this man, Abram. We know little of him, except that he has few reasons to pull up his tents and …

THE LARGENESS OF GODPSALM 131, 127, 121 I lift up my eyes to the mountains. Of course God is larger than the mountains. And Jesus once said that with faith we can even move mountains. But a mountain can be a good physical reminder how small we are. We can look up to the mountains …

TRUE SPIRITUALITYCOLOSSIANS 2:1-23 These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings. Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in …

FREEDOM TO LOVEGALATIANS 5:1-26 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. Christ sets you free so that you will be free! That freedom is precious! Don’t use it to be enslaved again, or to indulge your …

TRUE PIETYMATTHEW 6:1-18 In a very real sense, if your relationship with God is genuine this passage will not worry you. You know Jesus is talking about someone else. If your heart is in the right place, it doesn’t matter if your prayer, or your fasting or your giving is seen by others. Because that …

SALT AND LIGHTMATTHEW 5:13-20 “But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.” As salt must be salty, a Christian must reflect the Christ he or she follows. It is not that the Christian must …

CREATED FOR RESTGENESIS 2:1-3, EXODUS 20:8-11, MARK 6:30-34 Jesus’ instructions to his disciples, as they were still caught up in the “high” of a successful mission trip, to separate themselves from the work, to be alone with him, to be quiet and to rest, has taught me that my Lord’s priority is firstly for his …
