  • Gideon PT 2

    Gideon PT 2
    Apr 13 2023
    Gideon’s insecurity gave way to a sublime confidence in the sovereignty of God, and although his life ends on an extremely sad note, we should not overlook the fact that he had earlier learned how to simply and humbly accept God’s help, an attitude which transforms every insecure struggler into a ‘mighty warrior’.

    Gideon Pt 1
    Feb 23 2023
    How our lives would be transformed if we could learn the lesson that God delights to be given the credit for our conquests and victories. Pride and egotism want to say, “I did it”, but humility and dependence delight in saying, “God did it”. Which of these two attitudes is uppermost in you?

  • Deborah

    Deborah
    Feb 16 2023
    It is difficult to find another woman in the Old Testament with such dedication and determination as Deborah. Her faith, energy, confidence, character, intellect and clear-sightedness mark her out as a woman who was God’s gift to the age in which she lived.

  • Joshua 5 Lessons from Joshua

    Joshua 5 Lessons from Joshua
    Feb 9 2023
    Joshua, the son of Nun, began his ministry for God as the servant, or minister, of Moses, and although he was overshadowed by the great patriarch, he functioned happily in the role which God had designed for him. Joshua, in his willingness to play ‘second fiddle’, showed his true strength of character, for before one can rule well, one must know how to serve well. When the time came for him to become the leader of Israel, he showed himself to be a great soldier and diplomat. He showed, however, not only the valour of a warrior, but the justice, gentleness, forbearance and humility of a great ruler. Probably the most outstanding characteristic of his life is his unselfishness. It was his utter indifference to all selfish considerations that marked him out as being what someone described as a ‘soldier-saint’.

  • Joshua PT4: Sin and Defeat

    Joshua PT4: Sin and Defeat
    Jan 26 2023

    Disobedience creeps into the nation of Isreal and its effects are devastating. We the sin put away, Joshua is told by the Lord that he can go forward and Ai will be given into his hands. At the close of this victorious expedition, Joshua holds an excellent thanksgiving service on Mount Ebal.

    “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9 )

  • Joshua PT 3 Battle of Jericho

    Joshua PT 3 Battle of Jericho
    Jan 19 2023

    Now that the Israelites were in Canaan, it would have made good military sense to move straight ahead and take immediate possession of the key city of Jericho. But God had another plan.

    An important key to a victorious Christian is the necessity of learning to shout, not after the walls of difficulty have come down, but before. If you are in need of some deliverance from the power of Satan, then, as well as praying, try the shout of praise. Things happen when God’s people praise Him.

  • Joshua Part 2- Crossing the Jordan

    Joshua Part 2- Crossing the Jordan
    Jan 5 2023
    One of the greatest tests of Joshua’s faith was the crossing of the Jordan. After forty years of wandering in the wilderness, Israel arrived at the Jordan when it was flooded. Six months earlier, in the dry season, the crossing would have been much simpler, but now it was obvious they needed divine help. As soon as the feet of the priests who were carrying the ark touched the river’s edge, the waters rolled back, allowing the whole of Israel to cross over into Canaan on dry land.
