Psalm: 196 Meditation Isaiah: So much of what is said here is echoed or paraphrased by Jesus. (Forgive my own bias, but this reading is rendered far more eloquently by the KJV.) For someone who would never experience Christ in his life, Isaiah gives us a thumbnail sketch of Jesus’ ministry in vv. 6-7, all …

Psalm: 65 Meditation Joel: This is clearly a call to repentance – something we all need to do always. All too often we think that God has us on a thread and is eager to let us go for our transgressions, (Thank you, Jonathan Edwards!) Not so. As verse 13 points out “…for He is …

Psalm: 39 Meditation Luke: John the Baptist was a Levite, Jesus of the tribe of Judah. Isaiah in chapter 40 prophesies John’s coming. By the time John arrives on the scene, there had been no prophet in the land – numerous false messiahs but, alas, no prophets. John had received the gift of the Holy …

Psalm 31 Meditation: Ezekiel – Human justice is not the same as God’s justice. The word ‘justice’ is defined as: the assignment of merited rewards or punishments. God’s justice is focused on the heart of the person in question, whether or not they have truly repented their offences and seek after God. Repentance and love …

Ash Wednesday Psalm 95 Meditation: Luke –Whether you hold to the traditional Christian calendar or not, the purpose of Lent is to remind us of our need for a Savior and the cost that our Savior needed to pay for us. The tax collector in the parable has a truly Lenten spirit. And as we …

Eve of Epiphany Psalm 2 Meditation: Jonah – Jonah spent three days and nights inside the fish by the time he prays this prayer. This is Jonah’s prayer of repentance. We don’t know what happened for all of that time inside the fish but three days of total solitude in darkness will do a number …

Psalms: 23, 24 Meditation Amos: This is a rather straight forward message. Amos speaks as someone who is short on time or that his message of judgment is upon them. The judgment came some 30 years later – that seems imminent enough for me. There are many hoping and, dare I say, praying for “the …

Psalms: 78:40-72 Meditation Nehemiah: The “Book of the Law of Moses” spoken of here are the first 5 books of the bible AKA the Pentateuch. Nehemiah and Ezra had positioned the priests and Levites in the whole assembly of Israel in Jerusalem (maybe 50, 000 not counting women and children) to help explain what Ezra …

Psalms: 54 Meditation Matthew: John the Baptist made no attempt at popularity. Like any prophet worth his salt, John was no fashion-plate either, proclaiming “Repent” – the only thing missing from this caricature was the sandwich board reading: “The end is near.” He was fearless confronting king, Pharisee and priest alike warning even them that …
