This week, we're joined by Lord James O'Shaughnessy, Member of the House of Lords (UK), and Senior Partner at Newmarket Strategy. In May 2023, Lord O'Shaughnessy led and published a government-commissioned review into the UK clinical trials process, producing key recommendations for policy improvements in R&D innovation. He and Patrick discuss his experience as the Minister in charge of leading the National Health Service through Brexit, and the fundamental importance of integrating R&D into the healthcare system.

'If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them.' (James 4.17.) James 5:1-6 focuses on the condemnation of the rich who exploit the poor and warns of the impending judgment they will face. 'Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you. Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the innocent one, who was not opposing you.' (James 5.1-6, NIV.)

"The Outcome of the Lord's Dealings"James 5:7-11Pastor Tom Madon, Living Word ChurchA question commonly discussed among believers is how God dealswith us as His children. Thankfully, God's Word often addressesthis issue, providing both instruction and encouragement.The Epistle of James encourages his readers to patiently endurewhatever sufferings God allows or brings into our lives and toremember "the outcome of the Lord's dealings" (James 1:11).The topic sentence of the paragraph is, "Be patient, brothers, untilthe coming of the Lord" (James 5:7).Three instructive examples of encouragement:1. The faithful, hardworking farmer (vs. 7-9) We are to be ___________________ our hearts. We are to be careful that we do not _________________one another for the trials we experience.2. The persecuted yet faithful Old Testament prophets (vs.10) Their suffering and faithfulness are both well documented.3. God's faithful servant, Job. (vs. 11) Job experienced unimaginable loss and suffering. Job exhibited exemplary _________ in his trials. Job endured his trials without understanding God's_______ in his suffering. Job's experience teaches us to trust God's ___________and to be confident in the outcome of the Lord's__________ with us.

Sunday morning worship at Altadena Baptist Church, August 20, 2023. Sermon by Pastor George Van Alstine: "Humble yourselves before the Lord" (James 4).

7 Be patient, then, brothers, until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop and how patient he is for the autumn and spring rains. 8 You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near. 9 Don't grumble against each other, brothers, or...

Concluding our series on ‘Living in Victory', we see the final key to overcoming everything that comes against us in life. Here Paul speaks about prayer. Prayer is so powerful and important that Paul includes it in his teaching in Ephesians 6 about how we can win in every battle we face. As the great evangelist, John Wesley said: “Prayer is where the action is.”  Immediately after admonishing the Ephesians to take up the sword of the Spirit, Paul wastes no time in mentioning the final weapon (Ephesians 6:18-19).  Jesus is the ultimate example of a prayer warrior. During His time on earth, He lived a life of prayer. He prayed to do the will of His father so that God's glory could be demonstrated through His life. He never ministered without first seeking His father in prayer. His power was prayer. The battles were won in prayer. And we read of so many miracles and of how Jesus' ministry developed through prayer.  His life of prayer did not stop with His death. In Hebrews 7:24 we read “but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood.” The role of the priests in the Bible was to intercede for people, but of course they could only do that whilst alive on earth, after which their ministry ended. Jesus is the eternal, forever high priest who continues His priestly ministry of intercession in Heaven. It is amazing to think that since He ascended to heaven, Jesus has been interceding on our behalf for the perfect will of the Father to be done.  Let us look more closely at what Paul teaches us about prayer in this specific context of prayer as a weapon.  1. Pray at all times (James 5:13; 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18; ) 2. Pray in the Spirit (Romans 8:26; Ephesians 6:12) 3. Pray in different ways (Philippians 4:6) 4. Pray for people (Esther 4:17) Apply  Paul says here “pray in the Spirit on all occasions...” No matter what you are going through, pray! There is nothing too big or too small to discuss with the Lord (James 5:13; 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18). Through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus, God removed the blockage of sin that was between man and God, opening the way for us to live in the presence of God. Praying on all occasions means continually welcoming His presence in our lives, confident that we will be heard by our Father God as we pray in all circumstances because the barrier has been removed.  The passage also says how we should “pray in the Spirit” The Holy Spirit lives in us and we should not only walk and live with the Holy Spirit's guidance; we should also pray with the help of the Holy Spirit. A person truly dependent on the Holy Spirit can pray in the Spirit (Romans 8:26). We need the Holy Spirit. We are all called to be prayer warriors. We cannot fight our own battles; we instead fight in the Spirit. We win in the spiritual realm and then we see change manifested on earth. When we understand this, we will see many breakthroughs (Ephesians 6:12).  In this passage, Paul encourages us to pray “with all kinds of prayers and requests.” Imagine a quiver full of arrows, ready to fight the enemy and to be victorious. Well there are different kinds of arrows we can draw from our quiver. In his book ‘Secrets of a Prayer Warrior', Derek Prince outlines 12 distinct kinds of prayer. These are “praise, thanksgiving, worship, petition, intercession, supplication, command, commitment, dedication, persistence, blessing and cursing.” There are more but this gives us a good idea of the different kinds of prayers we can pray. Paul teaches on prayer all through his books (Philippians 4:6). Prayer can be personal. We can ask for the salvation of a family member, ask for a breakthrough in your finances, ask for wisdom. Or we can pray publicly in groups for the community or the church. We can pray in many different ways.  Finally, we must pray for people. a) You can pray for yourself and your family, for protection, provision and more of the Lord's presence, and applying the blood of Jesus. For every need in our lives, the cross represents a great exchange. b) We can pray for the church, our towns, our cities, nations and for other nations, that God will extend His kingdom and that many lives will be touched. Esther in the Bible is an amazing example of someone who offered up prayers and interceded because she wanted to see her people, her nation's future changes. It was not easy; a lot was at risk. But she knew that the power to overcome the evil intents of Hamman was to pray. Like Charles Spurgeon said, “Prayer is the forerunner of mercy. Turn to sacred history, and you will find that scarcely ever did a great mercy come to this world unheralded by supplication.” Even when we are weak, you can use the weapon of prayer (Esther 4:17). God can move in your home, in your workplace, your community and nation through your prayers. The future of a nation is in the hands of the people who pray. c) We must pray for our spiritual leaders. Paul goes on to say to ask for prayer for himself, that he will continue to minister. These are the people that God sets as the covering over our lives. We are to uphold their arms in prayer, so that they can continue the work of God. And if Paul could ask for prayer as a leader, we need to keep praying for our own leaders as well. This passage about prayer is a key that all of us can apply. Paul asks that God's people pray for boldness and fearlessness. We can boldly approach God's throne and ask with big expectation in our hearts and with no condemnation, for we are heirs and coheirs with Christ. Let's put these final verses into practice so we can truly Live in Victory!

You can't operate in the Christian life with an unrealistic self-image. An unrealistic self-image leads to unrealistic expectations and creates a role model out of self. A person with an unrealistic self-image can't look into the mirror of God's Word and see themselves as they really are because they don't have objectivity. They are totally subjective and focused on themselves. Apart from Satan, arrogance is the greatest enemy of a Christian. “Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord” (James 4:10) is a mandate from God. There is no substitute for humility in the spiritual life. Click for Full Transcript: https://rhem.pub/unrealistic-self-c1a71b

If you're a believer, God will work throughout your life to grow your faith. In fact, there's a six-phase process of faitha dream, decision, delay, difficulty, dead end, and deliverancethat God will take you through again and again to develop your character and help you fulfill the dream he has given you. If you are . . . unable to make up your mind and undecided in all you do, you must not think that you will receive anything from the Lord (James 1:7-8 GNT). In this message series, Pastor Rick explains how to make wise decisions and be obedient to God as you grow in faith. You will never realize God's dream for your life until you make the decision to step out in faith. Pastor Rick shares in this broadcast a simple, workable plan for making biblical decisions that will keep you on track as you pursue God's dream for your life.

The Bible tells me to wait on the LORD. How do I do that? How do I know if that is actually what I'm doing or if I even understand what that means? The book of James is a book focused on how our actions demonstrate our belief. Want to know what you're waiting for? Look at what you're busy doing. In this special episode of REACH College, Pastor Taylor Gabbert talks to the TCC BCM about waiting on the LORD in James chapter 5. Get Connected! https://linktr.ee/reachtulsa

In this episode of the Double Edged Sword Podcast Father Genard dives into rebuilding trust after betrayal. The word “Trust” is very important to us and applies to everything in our daily lives from our alarm clocks to individuals around us. When we believe in God we Trust in His power, wisdom, promises… When your alarm clock fails to sound, you lose trust in that alarm clock because it failed you. What about when you trust in a person and that person betrays you? Do you attempt to rebuild trust? Have you betrayed God today? (Not praying, not offering your fast, not reading Holy Scriptures, Using the Lords name in vain…) but Jesus is always ready to rebuild that relationship with us. How must we reconcile with one another if there is no communication? We must communicate with one another to sympathize with the weakness and imperfection of mankind 5 steps to rebuilding trust: Step 1: Communicate Step 2: Help one another Step 3: Discipline the person Step 4: Monitor and reevaluate  Step 5: Pray and pray continuously for committing that person to the mercy of God Referenced Bible Verses: For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord James 1:17 As for man, his days are like grass, As a flower of the field, so he flourishes Psalm 103:15 But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all men, and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for He knew what was in man. John 2:24-25 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart Luke 18:1 “…But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them; then they will fast in those days.” Luke 5:35 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. John 5:39 “Moreover if your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have gained your brother.† 16 But if he will not hear, take with you one or two more, that ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.' 17 And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the church. But if he refuses even to hear the church, let him be to you like a heathen and a tax collector. Matthew 18:15-17 Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?”† 22 Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Matthew 18:21-22 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of heaven, over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:26 Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. John 13:34 lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. Hebrews 12:6 Now I rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that your sorrow led to repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly manner, that you might suffer loss from us in nothing. 2 Corinthians 7:9 So I praised those who were already dead More than the living, As many as are alive until now.

Am I current on what I owe? Or, have I withheld what is rightly deserved? The Bible says, “Owe no one anything, except to love each other” (Romans 13.8 ESV). In the name of Jesus and His love, do I owe someone an act of love? Did I send them away when they tried to “collect?” The Bible makes a personal guarantee… “…the pay… which has been withheld by you, cries out against you; and the outcry… has reached the ears of the Lord…” (James 5.4). There's only way to silence their outcry and put a smile back on God's face. In the name of Jesus and for the love of God... pay what you owe.

It's difficult to determine the historical background of this Psalm. Whatever the crisis, the psalm teaches us that we must choose between fear (walking by sight) or trust (walking by faith), listening to human counsel or obeying the wisdom that comes from the Lord (James 1:5). One commentator said that the Lord allowed David to face every human crisis and emotion that we all face so that as he wrote his prayers of anguish in the Psalms, and his delight in worship and praise, we could relate to him and make these our prayers and praise too! We should find great comfort and encouragement as read and meditate on them daily! In verse 1, David is facing a crisis and his counselors immediately told him to leave Jerusalem and head for the safety of the mountains. They didn't seem to have faith that the Lord could see him through (see 3:2 and 4:6). It's right for us to flee from temptation (2 Tim. 2:22) as Joseph did (Gen. 39:11-13), but it's wrong to flee from the place of duty, as Nehemiah was invited to do (Neh. 6:10-11). The leader who flees needlessly from the crisis is only a hireling and not a faithful shepherd (John 10:12-13). Beware of listening to unwise counsel. Put your faith in the Lord, and He will protect you and direct your paths. In verse 2, "For, look", suggests that these counselors are walking by sight and evaluating the situation from the human perspective. (See 2 Kings 6:8-23.) It's good to know the facts, but it's better to look at those facts in the light of the presence and promises of God. David's enemies were attacking him with lies and deceit. This verse reminds me of Ephesians 6 where the devil shoots his fiery darts of lies at us when we are standing for the Lord. In verse 3, we are asked the question, “If the foundations are destroyed what can the righteous do?” The foundation of society is built on truth and justice, and when truth is questioned or denied, and justice is not being carried out, the foundations of our lives and society shake (Isa. 59:11-15). Law and order, truth and justice, can only take place where there is mutual trust between individuals because of the foundation of God's Word and Jesus Christ. And when we have individual respect, and a sense of responsibility, because we know we are accountable to a Holy God, and that there will be a future judgment, we have a firm foundation that will produce peace and security. So, “What can the righteous do?” For years I used this verse to say that if we allow the foundations of our nation and society to be destroyed there is nothing we can do. We can just throw up our hands in despair. That is definitely the wrong answer! If I had looked at the next verse, 4, I would have found the right answer! “The LORD is in His holy temple, The LORD'S throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, His eyelids test the sons of men.” We can remember that God is still on His throne and we can trust Him and do all we can by His grace to lay the foundations again! It is our responsibility to do all we can, to personally dig deep into the Rock, Jesus Christ, and build the foundations of truth and justice for the next generation. Don't Give Up!!!! Jesus still reigns!!!! God bless!

Jesus is silent on Saturday.  The women have anointed his body and placed it in Joseph's tomb.  The cadaver of Christ is as mute as the stone which guards it.  He spoke much on Friday. He will liberate the slaves of death on Sunday.  But on Saturday, Jesus is silent.So is God.  He made himself heard on Friday.  He tore the curtains of the temple, opened the graves of the dead, rocked the earth, blocked the sun of the sky, and sacrificed the Son of Heaven.  Earth heard much of God on Friday.Nothing on Saturday.  Jesus is silent.  God is silent.  Saturday is silent.Easter weekend discussions tend to skip Saturday.  Friday and Sunday get the press.  The crucifixion and resurrection command our thoughts.  But don't ignore Saturday.  You have them, too.Silent Saturdays.  The day between the struggle and the solution; the question and the answer; the offered prayer and the answer thereof.Saturday's silence torments us.  Is God angry?  Did I disappoint him? God knows Jesus is in the tomb, why doesn't He do something?  Or, in your case God knows your career is in the tank, your finances are in the pit, your marriage is in a mess. Why doesn't He act?  What are you supposed to do until He does?You do what Jesus did.  Lie still.  Stay silent.  Trust God.  Jesus died with this conviction: “You will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay” (Acts 2:27 NIV).Jesus knew God would not leave him alone in the grave.  You need to know, God will not leave you alone with your struggles.  His silence is not his absence, inactivity is never apathy.  Saturdays have their purpose. They let us feel the full force of God's strength. Had God raised Jesus fifteen minutes after the death of His son, would we have appreciated the act? Were He to solve your problems the second they appear, would you appreciate His strength?For His reasons, God inserts a Saturday between our Fridays and Sundays.  If today is one for you, be patient.  As one who endured the silent Saturday wrote:  “Be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord” (James 5:7 NKJV).Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/yourdailybible)

7 Therefore, brothers and sisters, be patient until the Lord's coming. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth and is patient with it until it receives the early and the late rains. 8 You also must be patient. Strengthen your hearts, because the Lord's coming is near. 9 Brothers and sisters, do not complain about one another so that you will not be judged. Look, the judge stands at the door! 10 Brothers and sisters, take the prophets who spoke in the Lord's name as an example of suffering and patience. 11 See, we count as blessed those who have endured. You have heard of Job's endurance and have seen the outcome that the Lord brought about—the Lord is compassionate and merciful. Truthful Speech 12 Above all, my brothers and sisters, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your “yes” mean “yes,” and your “no” mean “no,” so that you won't fall under judgment

Join senior pastor Darin Smith as he continues our third installment of "Street-Level Faith" from the book of James. Today, we are looking at: *Sermon text: James 1:2-15 *Sermon title: "Why Can't I Blame You, Lord?” *Sermon big idea: Trials are God's unannounced exams to reveal your motivations in the faith: “Am I serving God, or do I want God to serve me?” Today, we will see how the apostle presents three profound questions to consider in the midst of suffering: Question #1 – Does it really benefit me to obey (James 1:12)? Question #2 – Does God really mess with people (James 1:13)? Question #3 - If all this is true, why do I sin (James 1:14-15)?
