Chasing Shadows
Hebrews is not the first book that most people choose to read. It certainly wasn’t the first book I chose. It is a difficult book to understand in light of the world now, how we live our lives now and how different the world is to the world that the writer is writing to and about. But I think this book is more relevant now than ever. There is indeed much we can, and should learn from the book of Hebrews.
Who is Your King?
Psalm 74 is a difficult Psalm, a difficult piece of Scripture that you probably won’t find in your daily devotional of uplifting Scripture verses. But it is a reminder that we have to read the Bible for ourselves and we should read it every day.
What to do while we wait
As believers we are not called to simply sit around and wait for the King to arrive. Jesus was always on the move. Jesus was always actively healing and preaching and loving people. We must do the same. As we wait on the King we must hope, worship and witness.
Honest Faith
I don’t know where or when Jesus found you but when He found me, I had been foolish and had sinned. Jesus found me and I know the words of the Psalmist, the words that describe what Jesus did for me, to be true. Jesus restored me.

Who have you told?
Psalm 67. We must not forget where the blessing comes from, who this Psalm is about and who this Psalm is for. The Psalm reminds us that God will judge the people righteously and that there will come a time when all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
Powerful Words
Reading the Bible is a journey. It’s a Spiritual journey that you take each day with your Father in Heaven. Bible time should be Pray, Read, Pray, Read! Where you go before the author of this beautiful, powerful, life-changing, truthful book and humbly ask that He would ready your heart, open your eyes and ears and speak to you through the words that you are about to read.
Daily JIM : Are You Satisfied?
Psalm 63 – The question today is whether you are satisfied? Maybe in this time of isolation God is asking whether you believe that God satisfies us. What are you looking forward to when this is all over? Maybe those are the things that have been satisfying you.
Daily JIM : The Higher Rock
As we read Psalm 61 today we hear God speaking to us, His children. He reminds us that when we are overwhelmed we can ask Him to take us to a higher rock.
