Romans 8:28-30

All Things for Good

Romans 8:28 is one of the most loved verses in the Bible. We love the thought that for those who love God all things work together for good. But what is the good that God is working for? How can we see it in our lives, especially when things are not good?

Romans 8:18-27

Groaning & Glory

The pattern of Jesus’ life was suffering before glory. To belong to Christ is to share that same pattern. This makes us the question if it’s worth it. Will the future glory outweigh present sufferings? This passage answers that question by showing us the weight of glory, the hope of glory and the help to glory.

1 Samuel 6:1-7:2

God’s Presence

God’s presence is the greatest blessing there is. Yet, in this passage we see it was a problem for the Philistines; and for the Israelites. They ask, “Who is able to stand before the Lord, this holy God?” This is the big question that we all need to face—and one that only God himself can resolve for us.

1 Samuel 5

God’s Heavy Hand

When the Philistines got their hands on the ark of the Lord, they assumed they and their idol had triumphed. But what looked like God’s defeat turned out to be his victory, as his hand was heavy against them. Here we learn about the threat of God’s heavy hand against all who dishonour him. Only in the gospel is that threat removed.

1 Samuel 4

God’s Glory

It is easy for us to presume that we can have God on our terms, ignoring him for the most part, but expecting him to be there for us when we need him. In this passage the Israelites were treating God in this way, even attempting to use the ark of the covenant as leverage. But God’s glory means that he cannot be treated so lightly.
