In blog number 28 we were looking at the need to ‘remember’ – with  thanksgiving – all that the Lord has done for us in our past. We saw how often, when Gods’ people didn’t take time to remember and thank Him for His faithfulness, they would go astray, and God was particularly concerned that […]

We hear a lot these days about the high levels of ‘anxiety’ that  people are experiencing at this time. I think that what we call ‘anxiety’ is what the bible would call ‘fear’, and we know that the bible is full of exhortations, in both the Old and the New Testament, not to be afraid- to […]

In the early days of the charismatic movement, we used to sing a song based on the AV translation of the Magnificat, Mary’s song.
