A New Agreement

Exodus 1:1-3:22
Why was Moses chosen? So many people and God chose Moses. When God ask us to do something for Him we can spend so much time asking why me? God chooses we need to do.
God hears the cry and responds, it may not feel like it was a very quick response, but He is at work

Matthew 26:1-30
The new covenant, the new way of doing things, it was explained here in a small room, with a small group of people.

How cool-God has pitched a tent for the sun!

Good Godly Friend?

Job 40:3-42:17
God continues to explain to Job, and his friends, how great He is and what a mistake they have made!
Job remained faithful-his friends didn't!
Am I being a faithful Godly friend, or am I talking a load of rubbish?

Matthew 25:14-46
Please God help me to make use of all that You have given to me, help me to not waste it.
Who is it who is hungry, thirsty, lonely, in need today who I need to help?

Psalm 18:43-50
God is alive! Great news, but we can forget the imporatnce of it if we have been Christians for a long while-like me-and we should celebrate that God's alive.

God is God

Job 38:1-40:2
After all the chaos of Job and his friends we now get God speaking
This is a good reminder of who is God and who is not! It is very easy for little me to think that I know best and try to correct God and His ways. God has been about a lot longer than me!

Matthew 24:32-25:13
Jesus will return when we least expect it.
Are we ready-or does life get too comfortable?
I wonder what it would 'look' like to be ready for Jesus' return?

God gives us strength

What am I like on the insdie?

Job 33:1-34:37
I need to look at what light other people can shed on this! Sorry

Matthew 23:1-39
It is important what we are like on the inside, the religious people with Jesus were too concerned on looking good, when they were still dirty on the inside.
It is too easy to try and look good on the outside, what do I look like to God on the inside? Once the inside is taken care of the outside will 'fall into place'.

Psalm 18:25-36
With God a can scale a wall, God makes hard things-easy
If we take refuge in Him he will shield us.

It is the Almighty who gives understanding

Don't speak wickedness

Job 25:1-29:25
While I am still alive I will not speak wickedness
To fear the Lord is wise
