I Feel the tension! I want to abound in good works, but I know they come out of abiding in Jesus! John 15:4 “Abide in me and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me.” 2 Cor 9:8 […]

Jesus didn’t fast that often – indeed some of his critics condemned him for eating and drinking (Matt 1:19). After his baptism, He was led by the Spirit into the wilderness where Matthew and Luke tell us He fasted for forty days. We are told He was hungry – not thirsty, so he must have […]

I love that Pat andDavid have been championing the United Worship in King’s Lynn. The next one is this Thursday 16th Jan, 7:30pm at the king’s Centre on Wellesley St. Their heart is for unity leading to revival. The 1859 revival was marked by three things – interdenominational unity, united prayer and lay people going […]

Daniel and his friends were in a pagan land, far from home training for leadership. He was a man who prayed three times a day and didn’t compromise his principles. The training Dan 1:4 would be all sorts of things Daniel would have been uncomfortable v4 language and literature of Babylonians – pretty toxic! Daniel […]

Saul was a piece of work! He held the coats while Stephen was stoned to death and then spent his days arresting Christians and who knows what else. He’d eventually see that pre-conversion he was the chief of sinners. Acts 9:3-9 (NIV) As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed […]

Elijah had just gone through a prophetic showdown with the prophets of Baal, successfully calling down the fire of God on a sacrifice and then killing the evil false prophets. 1 Kings 19:3-8 (NIV) Now Ahab told Jezebel everything Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword. So Jezebel […]

The widow’s fast is about God taking care of others through us and about ministry to the poor. Isaiah 58:5-7 is a helpful background… Is this the kind of fast I have chosen, only a day for people to humble themselves? Is it only for bowing one’s head like a reed and for lying in […]
