20 Proverbs 18-19; 1 Kings 7-10; 19 Psalms 111-118; 43 John 4-6

1 Chronicles 29 outlines the extensive offerings for the temple, that David in gratefulness to God had prepared. And like the Tabernacle those offerings had had come from willing hearts - verse 9 compare Exodus 25:2. David then prays for the Assembly and asks that whatever those assembled had done would be acceptable to the Almighty. Note the similarity between David's prayer and the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6. Also take notice of the deep spirit of humility in which it was offered. Solomon was anointedking for the second time and we need to consider the import of verse 23 "He sat as king upon the throne of Yahweh over Israel". Thus began the kingdom of God on earth in its first constitution. David dies and is buried and let us consider the Apostle Paul's comments on David's faithful service in Acts 13 verses 36-37. Ezekiel 38 speaks of an invasion of the recently regathered and reconstituted nation of Israel (verses 7-8). The chapter speaks of a northern confederacy headed by one termed Gogue - meaning 'roof', or 'one at the top'. Looking at a map of Eurasia we need no imagination to be able to see the nation being spoken about. The leader of this nation is called in the Hebrew tongue prince of Ros, Meshech and Tubal - the ancient names for Russia, Moscow and Tobolski as many lexicographers tell us. In a book by a notable Russian historian (George Vernadsky - he says Ezekiel 38 is the first historical reference to Russia. Note the alliances mentioned and much of this has already transpired. This Eurasian confederacy is opposed by Israel and Arabian countries (verse 13). The principal aggressor comes from the "uttermost parts of the north" (verse 16 RSV). Moscow is directly north of Jerusalem. Verses 17-23 indicate that the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY will come to the aid of His beleaguered people and there will be a great earthquake (see Zechariah 14 and Joel 3 verses 16-21). It will be occasioned by the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ standing on the Mount of Olives. This was promised by the two angels at Jesus' ascension to heaven: Acts 1:1-11 compare with Luke's other record in Luke 24 verses 50-52. John 4 deals with the incident between Jesus and the woman of Samaria in which he offers her "living water". There follows a discussion between Jesus and the woman about the site of acceptable worship - Jerusalem, or Gerazim. Jesus firstly tells her that salvation is from the Jews. Acceptance by God is dependent on two factors sincerity and truth - these have always been the focus at Shechem, and with Joseph and his brothers in Egypt (Joshua 14 verses 14-15; Judges 9 verses 14-15). The woman accepts Jesus as the Christ (Messiah) and she then has an incredible impact on helping the Samaritans to receive Jesus also. Philip would about 7 years later reap the gathering harvest now being sown. That harvest is spoken about in Acts 8. From verse 46 to the end of John chapter 4 our Lord Jesus heals the son of an official from Capernaum - this being the second of the signs recorded by John and resulting in the official and his household believing in the Lord Jesus Christ. That Nobleman is thought by some to be Herod's keeper of the larder ChuzaThanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow

Daily Dose of Hope October 9, 2025   Scripture - John 4:43-54   Prayer:  Lord, our Lord, How majestic is your name in all the earth!  We magnify your precious and powerful name.  How often we forget how mighty you are.  You created all.  You created us.  Thank you, Lord, for who you are.  Most of all, thank you for loving us with all our flaws and brokenness.  In all we do, in who we are, help us to be more like you.  We pray for humility, mercy, and compassion.  Help us see others through your eyes.  In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast that complements the Bible reading plan at New Hope Church in Brandon, Florida.  We are currently doing a deep dive into the Gospels and Acts.  Today, we are finishing up John 4.   Today, we read about one of only three healing miracles in the book of John.  But in this Gospel, Jesus is careful to call them signs, not miracles, and there is an important distinction.  A sign is something that is not only a miracle but it also reveals Jesus' divinity and his mission.  They point to who Jesus is as the Son of God and Messiah.  Jesus himself functions somewhat like a sign in the book of John.  We read in chapter 1 that he was with God in the beginning, he was the Word made flesh, and he makes the invisible God known.   John is really unique from the Synoptic Gospels.  He very intentionally shares seven specific signs that Jesus performs and each one reveals something about Jesus' identity and why he is here.  We already read about Jesus turning the water into wine in Cana, sign #1.  Jesus made a tremendous amount of wine and it was the very best at the wedding, showing the amazing abundance of God in Jesus Christ.  Now, we have Jesus healing the son of an official, demonstrating his willingness and ability to restore health and life.  It's interesting that Jesus ignores the official's first plea and instead kind of talks down to him for his need of signs.   Jesus wasn't crazy about turning the water into wine either.  Each sign so far has been met with what seems like reluctance or ambivalence. Could it be that Jesus is concerned about how these signs will be interpreted?  We know from the other Gospels that signs and miracles often led to Jesus being following by thousands of people.  Might they get caught up in the sign and miss the importance of the one who actually allowed the signs to happen?  Or maybe Jesus doesn't want people to simply come to him for signs of God's favor.  What were God's intentions here?  I do find the wording interesting in John.  I tend to think of all of these signs as miraculous.  Why not call them as such?  I'm wondering if God wants us to see past the miracle here.  God is present in so many other ways in our lives.  Yes, he is present in the miraculous.  But he also gives us many, many other signs.  God gives us signs, nudges, or strong feelings that indicate he is at work in our lives.  He gives us signs about whether or not to take a job, signs about which direction to head in educationally, and signs about how to continue in a relationship.  God is always giving us signs, showing us he is right here, pointing us to him.  It might not seem miraculous, like water into wine, but it's still real and powerful.  Regardless of the sign, God is always trying us to point us toward his love.  Whether he is healing a friend, directing us to a certain job, or giving us the words to say to a friend in need, it's always signs pointing us toward his love.  He loves us and he wants to be involved in our lives.  Is Jesus an everyday presence in your life?  What signs does he give you? Blessings, Pastor Vicki          

Daily Dose of Hope October 8, 2025   Scripture – John 4:1-42   Prayer:  Holy God, You are the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, the one who was and is and is to come.  We love you and give you praise.  We rejoice in your powerful name.  Thank you for how you call each of us.  Thank you for how you provide for us and equip us with everything we need.  You don't need to use us but you do; you allow us to be part of your work in this world.  Thank you, Lord.  Help us to see the blessing of serving you.  We pray this in your name, Amen.   Welcome to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional/podcast that complements the daily Bible reading plan at New Hope Church in Brandon, Florida.  We are currently doing a deep dive into the Gospels and Acts which will last through the end of 2025.  Today, we begin John 4.   This is the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well.  Many of you are familiar with this passage and it is an extraordinary one.  Let's try to look at it with fresh eyes.  There are some really fascinating aspects to this narrative:   ·      Jesus did not have to go through Samaria; he chose to.  He was making a statement here.  As we have mentioned before, the Jews and Samaritans hated one another.  Usually, Jews went the long way around Samaria so they didn't have to be contaminated by the people who they called dogs and half-breeds.  Remember, the region of Samaria was once the Northern Kingdom.  They set up their own capital and their own temple.  After the Assyrians conquered them, many people moved out and others moved in.  Thus, the people who lived there during Jesus' day were a mix of cultures and nationalities.  ·      Jesus initiates a conversation with the woman at the well.  Jews and Samaritans didn't have conversations.  Honestly, men and women didn't have conversations.  So many things about this situation were taboo.  But Jesus doesn't care about social conventions, he cares about individual people. ·      The woman was at the well in the middle of the day.  That tells us that she was trying to avoid others.  It was really, really hot at that time of day.  Most women would have drawn water in the cool of the morning.  This woman was avoiding the town women because she was probably the focus of their gossip.  She had been married many times and she was, at the time, living with a man who wasn't her husband. ·      We don't know much about this woman, but my guess is that she had a life filled with hardship and trauma.  Jesus knew that.  He saw her needs and her struggles and he offered her living water.  She was open and receptive.  ·      This woman turns out to be one of the best evangelists in the New Testament.  She goes and tells the townspeople about this man who knew everything about her life.  Remember, these are the people who don't like her but she is boldly sharing about Jesus anyway.  Thus, many of the Samaritans believed and became committed to following Jesus.  ·      Jesus is in the business of changing lives and whole communities.  And he uses all of us.  Our past does not matter to Jesus, only our hearts and desire to change.     Blessings, Pastor Vicki

In John 4, Jesus "had to" travel through Samaria. There, He has a conversation with a Samaritan woman at a well, offering her living water that gives eternal life. He also reveals to her that He is the Messiah. She shares her testimony with the whole town, and many believe and are saved. Jesus returns to Cana, and an official from Capernaum travels to ask Jesus to heal his son. Jesus tells him to return home and that his son will live. The man believes Jesus, trusts His word, and returns home to find his son recovering. The fever left him at the exact hour Jesus said that his son was well. Both stories remind us that Jesus is true and trustworthy; He is the promised Messiah who satisfies for eternity, providing for us what we cannot provide for ourselves.For more information on this study, go to FeastingOnTruth.com/JohnFor recommended resources, go to FeastingOnTruth.com/ResourcesFor booking inquiries, go to FeastingOnTruth.com/Speaking

Send me a Text Message!Perhaps the first step to purity is seeking God. As we seek God, we come near to Him, and discover how much He loves us and our hearts  begin to burn for Him. In fact to be pure in heart Soren Kierkegaard said is to want one thing, to be undivided.  Or we have said it this way, "To be pure in heart is to have an unrestrained affection for God.  So let me ask you what is restraining your affection for God? When God comes close, He begins to burn away the junk that is restraining our affection for Him. But don't expect the burning to be entirely comfortable. He is a refiner's fire. It has to happen to prepare the way, prepare our hearts. It's not optional so, so we have to decide, when God comes close, will I let the fire burn?

Sermons from our Sunday Services at St.Peter's Free Church, Dundee

What are you turning to for fulfillment in life? How does it fall short? We see how Jesus offers "living water" that satisfies completely. And when we truly encounter Christ, our lives are transformed and we can't help but worship and share this hope with others.

Pastor Jim explores Jesus' conversation with the woman at the well in John 4, revealing worship as a response to encountering God in truth and spirit. Jim challenges listeners to see how true worship is more than ritual or location. It is a response to the presence of Jesus that transforms our identity, confronts sin with grace, and overflows into proclamation. The woman's story illustrates how our thirst for belonging, healing, and spiritual vitality is met in Christ alone. Whether we are skeptical, ashamed, or stuck in patterns of religious routine, Jesus invites us into a deeper, everyday rhythm of worship that flows through our entire lives.

Today’s Bible Verse: "But whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life." — John 4:14 Every one of us has deep longings—desires for love, acceptance, security, and purpose. We often try to fill those voids with relationships, success, achievements, or possessions, but nothing fully satisfies. In John 4:14, Jesus promises something different: living water that refreshes our souls and fills us with eternal hope. “Want to listen without ads?
