DELIVERANCE THROUGH THE STORMY WINDS

HH Sir Godfrey Gregg D.Div "The Lord brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all that night; and when it was morning, the cast wind brought the locusts....Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste....And the Lord turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and cast … Continue reading DELIVERANCE THROUGH THE STORMY WINDS

STOP THE MURMURING AND COMPLAINTS

Numbers 32:16-27 Here is the good effect of plain dealing. Moses, by showing their sin, and the danger of it, brought them to their duty, without murmuring or disputing. All men ought to consider the interests of others as well as their own; the law of love requires us to labour, venture, or suffer for … Continue reading STOP THE MURMURING AND COMPLAINTS

SUDDENNESS OF CHANGE

  "And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness." (Mark 1:12). It seemed a strange proof of Divine favour. "Immediately." Immediately after what? After the opened heavens and the dove-like peace and the voice of the Father's blessing, "Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." It is no abnormal experience. … Continue reading SUDDENNESS OF CHANGE

GOD EXPOSES YOUR SINS TO SAVE YOU

HH Sir Godfrey Gregg D.Div Does it hurt to come into the light and be exposed? Yes, it’s painful, there’s mourning, there are tears, your whole self-image is wrecked.

TEMPERED AND TRIED

HH Sir Godfrey Gregg D.Div "That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises." (Hebrews 6:12).

THERE IS NOTHING SAFE ABOUT SECRET SINS

Jesus' exposition of the law is a devastating blow against the lie that image is everything. Our Lord taught repeatedly that sin bottled up on the inside, concealed from everyone else's view, carries the very same guilt as a sign that manifests itself in the worst forms of ungodly behaviour. Those who hate others are … Continue reading THERE IS NOTHING SAFE ABOUT SECRET SINS
