  charlescameron added a text contribution Thank the Lord for what He has done for you. Thank Him for what He will do for you.

  We look back to what Christ has done for us. We look forward to what He will do for us. Looking back and looking forward: These are both found in Hebrews 9:28 – ‘Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for Him’. We remember our Saviour. We remember what He has done for us: ‘the Son of God loved... Read more »

  charlescameron added a text contribution “Who Is This Great King?” (Psalm 24:8, 10) – Jesus Christ: Everything Is Centred Upon Him (Ephesians 1).

  “Who is this great King?” (Psalm 24:8, 10). The Psalmist tells us – “He is the Lord, strong and mighty, the Lord, victorious in battle … The triumphant Lord – He is the great King!” (vs. 8, 10). When we turn to the New Testament, we learn that Jesus is the great King. Jesus is the Lord. Jesus is strong and mighty. Jesus is victorious in battle. Jesus is the triumphant Lord. Jesus Christ is the... Read more »

  charlescameron added a text contribution Philippians 1:1-11

  Joy - This is the great theme of Paul’s letter to the Philippians: “Rejoice in the Lord always, and, again, I say, rejoice” (4:4).This joy is not a superficial emotion. It’s a confidence which is deeply rooted in God. When we see that true joy is joy in the Lord, we understand why the Word of God can speak of both the joy of the Lord and the fear of the Lord – “the fear of the Lord is the beginning... Read more »

  charlescameron added a text contribution The Uniqueness of Christ

  People did not know what to make of Jesus. They tried to understand Him by comparing Him with famous figures from the recent and more distant past – ‘ John the Baptist … Elijah … Jeremiah or one of the prophets’. Into this situation of confusion came something new, something different – ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God’. Where did this come from? It came from God – ‘flesh and blood has...

  The problems continue. They increase (14:1-4). Again, there is the word of encouragement. This time, it comes from Joshua as well as Caleb (14:5-9). The people bring God’s judgment upon themselves. They will not enter the Promised Land. Of the current generation of adults, only faithful Caleb and Joshua were to enter the Promised Land. They would lead the next generation into the land of promise,... Read more »

  charlescameron added a text contribution Numbers 1-4

  God spoke (1:1). His people obeyed (1:54). This is the constant pattern of the life of the life of faith. We hear the Word of God. We obey the Word of God. The names of God’s people differ from place to place. The pattern of their life remains the same. We find the same pattern in chapter 2. God speaks (v. 1). His people obey (v. 34). The pattern is also repeated in chapters 3 and 4. Both of these... Read more »

  charlescameron added a text contribution The Holy Spirit In The Life Of Faith

  The Holy Spirit is the Breath of God. All Scripture is God-breathed. We experience the Breath of God upon our life when we listen attentively to the God-breathed Scriptures. Paul speaks, in 2 Timothy 3:15-17, of the relationship between the Breath of God (the Holy Spirit) and the God-breathed Word (the Holy Scriptures) – ‘the Holy Scriptures … are able to make you wise for salvation through faith...

  The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”(v.1). There are some people who say, “There is no God.” Do we become wise the moment we say, “There is a God?” Let’s think about what we mean when we say, “There is a God.” We need to learn to move beyond the foolishness which says, “There is a God” without really listening to what God has to say to us. We need to learn to listen to God if we are to... Read more »

  charlescameron added a text contribution "How Long, O Lord?" (Psalm 13)

  The ‘how long’ questions are questions asked by a man who feels that God is far away. These questions must, however, be reversed, if we are to move beyond these feelings into the reality of knowing God. God says, ‘How long?’ The Lord is saying to us, “It doesn’t matter how long. Now is the time for a new beginning.” v.1a: “How long, O LORD ? Will You forget me forever?” – Now is the time for forgetting... Read more »

  Reading the words of the Psalmist, “The words of the Lord are pure words” (Psalm 12:6), brought to mind the words of the Apostle Paul – “Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst” (1 Timothy 1:15). God’s Word is pure. God’s Word is trustworthy. Take these two thoughts together. We think of the perfection of... Read more »

  charlescameron added a text contribution God's Way of Salvation (Psalm 11)

  This Psalm begins with a tremendous statement of faith - “In the Lord I take refuge.” The whole Psalm should be understood in the light of this tremendous statement of faith. * From the vantage-point of faith, the Psalmist is able to overcome the temptation to doubt God (vs. 1-3). - His enemies say to him, “”Flee like a bird to your mountain.” The Psalmist replies, “In the Lord I take refuge.”...

  This Psalm is a hymn of praise. It proclaims the glory of the Lord in His creation. The focus is not so much on the glories of nature. The great theme is the glory of Him who created nature. The Psalm begins and ends with the praise of God – “O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens” (v. 1); “O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name... Read more »

  There is a physical harvest. There is a spiritual harvest. Can we expect a spiritual harvest in this generation? Or Must we give up hope and turn our backs to the wall?Ours is a time when nothing can be taken for granted. Many people are entirely dismissive of the whole idea that there is a God to whom we ought to offer our praise and thanksgiving. If ever there was a time for Christians to stand... Read more »

  charlescameron added a text contribution Personal Salvation (Psalm 7)

  The Psalmist was being pursued by enemies who were intent on his full and final destruction. He puts his trust in the Lord. He looks to the Lord for salvation – “O LORD my God, I take refuge in You; save and deliver me from all who pursue me, or they will tear me like a lion and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me” (vs. 1-2). Following his opening words, we read about human sin – “O LORD my... Read more »
