Goliath and the Philistines acted like they owned the joint! But they didn’t… God had other plans, which David fulfilled, because he’d spent years, on his own with the sheep, worshipping God, learning to hear his voice, and honing his craft with the slingshot. He’d learned how to defeat the enemy in private, so that when it came to a public showdow…

God has sent us into the world! The church in 46AD wasn’t so different to today’s church. It was full of lots of different kinds of people, joined together by God. They had previously been involved in all kinds of competing things – yet now, united by Jesus, they were worshipping together. As they worshipped, the prophetic word of God emerged, was …

Do we understand that we need a deeper relationship with God in order to receive a second touch from Him? Do I feel like a should be in a deeper relationship with God? A place where the power of God transforms my life – More than simply coming to a church meeting? Jeremiah 33:1-3 NIV While Jeremiah was still confined in the courtyard of the guard, …

This chapter covers Peter’s imprisonment by Herod, and subsequent miraculous escape; his return to the believers (and their unbelief at who they were seeing); and Herod meets his end. In this talk we’re challenged to think about: Who or what we rely on Our unbelief (what do we struggle to believe?) Who we exalt (is it ourselves, our ideas, friends,…

God has called us to rule and reign – but the temptation as shown right at the beginning of Genesis through Satan’s leading of Adam and Eve into ‘greater knowledge’, is to grasp for things for ourselves that God intends to bring to us at the point He knows is right. The story of the tower of Babel tells of the time that people united together – but…

God sends encouragers – those who perceive what God is up to, get excited and get on board with what He’s doing. They are really key people in His Kingdom! The Greek word for encouragement is much richer and deeper than the English version. It encompasses two aspects: -To be close beside -To call, point or direct How are we encouragers? Do we tend …

Acts 9 is where Saul has a revelation! Jesus saw his heart – saw that having studied God’s word, he wanted to do the right thing. There was a struggle between his heart and his mind – he was caught in religion. Jesus doesn’t focus on our mistakes – he focusses on our hearts. This podcast is part of a series on the books of Acts which is supported b…

In Acts 1 Jesus said that his disciples would be his witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea and all the earth… we see the community going from house to house with gladness in their hearts. In this chapter Saul is introduced as a kind of puppet master – a nemesis to be reckoned with. He goes from house to house dragging men and women off to prison. Then Step…

Are we conduits or those who block the flow of God’s grace? Grace of God is His undeserved goodness to us. We get to show this grace to others Maybe I don’t realise I need God’s grace Maybe I’d rather trust myself Maybe I feel I don’t deserve it or haven’t earned it… Or maybe… I’m not willing to pass grace on because I judge that others aren’t dese…

In chapter 6 we saw that full of God’s grace and power he performed great signs and wonders. No-one could stand against the wisdom he spoke with, as he was inspired by the Holy Spirit – so false rumours are spread about him and these get him into serious trouble. He’s brought before the Sanhedrin (the courts of the day), to face some serious charge…

There was division – some of the widows weren’t getting enough food, so the apostles invited everyone to get involved and find a solution. We get to participate in a bigger vision – we’re not passive recipients…but there is a choice to make. And it’s a work of the Holy Spirit, and an expression of self-giving love for others. This podcast is part o…

Jamie draws out three key points from this passage in Acts: Joined versus added… The chapter talks about people being added. We usually talk about joining a church as our choice. But what if there’s an alternative view – one where God chooses where He wants to add us to His body? Prison couldn’t hold them… No prison can hold God captive What made t…

Acts 5: 1-11 The story of Ananais and Sapphira is one that shows us the seriousness of being real with God, and serving Him above all else. It’s tempting, with the limitations of our own wisdom and view, to look for approval and recognition from our peers, or people who we want to impress. So what’s the antidote? We find the answer in Psalm 139, 23…

This is the chapter where the rubber starts to hit the road, and we see how the Kingdom is advanced as Peter and John (unschooled, ordinary men) talk to people out of the overflow of having been filled with the Holy Spirit. They are very clear – the only way we can find salvation is through faith that Jesus died, bore the weight of humanities colle…

1 John 3:11 NIV For this is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another. 1 Thessalonians 3:12 NIV May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you. In the world we hang onto what we have in case we lose it whereas in the kingdom as you give what you have more …

Ephesians 2:10 NLT: For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. Numbers 20:1-13 NIV… What would God do if someone damages one of His masterpieces? It is a terrible thing to forget what God has done for us. Remembering what God has done for us is the beginning of havi…

Genesis 16:13 NIV She gave this name to the LORD who spoke to her: “You are the God who sees me,” for she said, “I have now seen the One who sees me.” When we feel seen, we feel encouraged, valued and have a sense of purpose. Hope rises again. During the time Jesus was on earth, we can see that he too sees and singles out those who are on the margi…

As a church we’ve felt God highlight three key things He wants to work in and through us in this season. We’ve called them ‘Our Great Project’: Households together with Jesus at the centre Being sharper witnesses Ministering to others out of the Holy Spirit In this talk Jeremy draws lessons from Luke 5, encouraging us to: Be willing to make space f…

God is in the business of releasing people! Just as in this passage, He released the man who had been lame since birth. It’s good to ask ourselves whether we’re trapped or crippled in some way. Do we expect anything different? Could we expect God to do a miracle and release us in some way? Later in the passage, after this amazing miracle, Peter goe…

Learning to love one another can’t be programmed, or sustained through common interests. We can’t possibly love others out of our own resources! We have to rely on God, committing to His way by asking Him to cause us to love Him and therefore others more. This podcast is part of a series on the books of Acts which is supported by periodic ‘reflecti…

God planned for us to tell others how much He loves them, and how His actions through Jesus express this love. He’s a massive risk taker. There is no plan B. We get to be involved in making a huge difference in others’ lives. Never stop asking God for miracles – we need Him to show His power by confirming His word, His love, with signs and wonders.…

Chapter 1 in the books of Acts sees Jesus spending 40 days with his disciples before ascending to Heaven. It can be read as a continuation from Luke 24, and is key for Jesus giving instruction to his disciples on the next steps, with the primary and most important step being to wait for the impartation of the Holy Spirit.

There are times when His presence is more intense, or ‘real’ to us, but let’s be prepared to wait for Him – to stop, look and listen in the everyday, rather than saving this waiting and looking for a Sunday. Carrying the presence of God wherever we go is the most important thing. Nothing and no-one else touches our innermost being like He does… To …

‘I lean not on my own understanding’ God has a plan right from the garden of Eden, through to Pentecost and beyond. We’re encouraged to wait in an alert fashion on God, actively looking for Him, pursuing Him – for example, Matthew 25 tells the story of the 10 virgins; we’re told that five are wise, because they are active in their preparation, wher…

How we are to be… Acts 2:42-47. At pentecost the Holy Spirit came to people; as they were touched, people were transformed – and so was the community. They shared possessions and meals. They prayed with one another and no one was in need. This is our template for today, yet so often we become tainted by the context that we live in – our individuali…
