The Life of Moses (3)
It was not pleasant for Moses to dwell as a stranger in the wilderness. However, the wilderness became a place of necessary training where he learned three subjects: 1) humility, 2) patience, and 3) faith. He would need these in the position in which the Lord would place him. He had be ...
The Life of Moses (2)
It was God’s wise providence that brought Moses as a baby back to his own mother. The three years at home were a blessing and joy not only for the mother but also for Moses himself. Jochebed was not only a loving mother but also a praying mother. At a very young age already the seed wa ...
The Life of Moses (1)
It was a very difficult time for the people of Israel when this Pharaoh came to the throne in Egypt. We read in Exodus 1:8 that he was a king “which knew not Joseph.” This Pharaoh was not so favorable to the children of Israel. He was afraid that the children of Israel would become mor ...
The Life of Daniel (21)
The Lord told Daniel that another ruler would come. The terrible oppression under Antiochus Epiphanes would come to an end. The Lord would deliver His people. In the last chapter of the book Daniel, this would be told to the prophet. It would be at God’s time. So, it would be with the ...
The Life of Daniel (20)
The last part of the book of Daniel is not to be chronologically placed after the rule of King Darius. Chapters 7-12 comprise the visions of the four beasts, the revelation of the seventy weeks of years, and finally the struggles of the wicked powers in the world against God and His ki ...

The Life of Daniel (18)
It is such a great privilege if there are those who bring the needs of the nation but also of the churches before the Lord. The prophet Daniel was such an intercessor. In this chapter he was now an old man of eighty-nine years. It was already seventy-three years ago that he had been de ...
The Life of Daniel (17)
What an earnest prayer Daniel had offered for his people. It was with an earnest pleading, “Take away the derision, the scorn, for the heathen will blaspheme Thy name.” Poor sinners learn that all their rights are gone, but by the Holy Spirit they may pray, “Do it for Christ’s sake, fo ...
The Life of Daniel (16)
The prophet Daniel had observed that the time had come in which to expect the end of the captivity. The prophet Jeremiah had spoken of this in Jeremiah 25:9-11: “…these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.” At the end of those seventy years the Lord would punish the k ...
A Sure Comfort for the Church of Christ
After the Lord Jesus and His disciples had partaken of the Lord’s Supper, they stood up, and after what takes place in chapters 14, 15, and 16, He gave a parting word of encouragement and victory. He knew what grief His loved ones would have to experience when He would be taken away fr ...
