This week, the last in this series, we’re reflecting on the promise of reward for faithful stewardship. Today, our theme is:
A good steward weighs the eternal value of daily choices to maximise their investment in God's kingdom.
Good stewards of God’s gifts understand that while their salvation is secure, their eternal rewards depend on how they faithfully invest the time, talents, and treasures He gives to them.
Good stewards of God’s gifts understand that they are eternally secure because of the foundation of Christ, and they serve God from that unshakable position.
Matt Beaney concludes our short series on Stewardship.
We are rewarded, or lose rewards, in response to our godly stewardship of God's gifts. So let's invest our time, talents and treasures wisely.
Generosity is an important fruit of understanding God's grace; it transforms us from accumulators into conduits of His blessings.
God’s design is that money is acquired, primarily, through work or the generosity of those who work.
Stewarding our money and possessions begins by choosing to see these things as gifts from God.
The design of the Tabernacle, with its table and bread, speak to us of God’s invitation to constantly feed on the presence of Christ.
Matt shares from Matthew 6. Let's seek first the Kingdom - listen to Jesus - and so become good stewards of the money He entrusts to us.
As stewards, we understand that our time is God’s time and is to be offered to Him for His purposes.
To steward our time, it’s important that we clarify what’s important, and use methods and habits that help us to steward our time usefully.
Time is created by God, and the units of days and weeks are to be stewarded wisely for both work and rest.
Phil continues our stewarding series, reflecting on what do we do with our time, that God has given us?
Practical service is a vital way that we are to engage in serving God in His church and the world.
Words are one of God’s most powerful gifts that we need to respect and learn to use effectively.
To understand how to use gifts, it’s really helpful to remember we are the body of Christ.
Beware of becoming jealous or ambitious about gifts or service for Christ - God has given each of us enough gifts and opportunities to thoroughly occupy us!
Everyone has been given grace-gifts from God - God does not exclude us and so we must not exclude ourselves.
Matt, and Lucy, continue our series on stewardship by reflecting on the nature of spiritual gifts, what they are for and how to develop in the use of them.
We can remain faithful stewards as we invest in our love for Christ and receive afresh of His love for us.
As we wait for Jesus’ return, Jesus expects us to steward the talents that He has invested in us.
God is good and gives us everything that is good in our lives - this leads to praise and thankfulness.

If we desire to have God’s presence at the centre, we must do the things that put Him at the centre.
God’s presence among us is to be the distinguishing mark of a Christian and a church - let’s reflect on what this means.

The Spirit leads us to speak about and bring people to Jesus, who then go on to share Him with others. This is how movements of the gospel begin.
Evangelism means helping people to know both the gift of God and the gift-giver, and, so, let’s bring Him wisely into our conversations.
In John 7, Jesus promised rivers of living water flowing from within those who believe. In John 4, we see that promise at work as Jesus meets a Samaritan woman at a well. This was a divine appointment, showing that God leads us to people who seem far from Him — even those we might find it hard to love

Today, from the life of Daniel, we reflect on our call to costly, faithful personal prayer.

Today, in Proverbs 9:10–12, we reflect on one of the key themes of the whole book: true wisdom begins with a right fear of the Lord.
From Proverbs 9:7–9, we reflect on the difference between how the wise and the foolish respond to correction. While the proud resist rebuke, the wise receive it as a gift.
From Proverbs 9:1-6, we reflect on how foolishness and wisdom offer us a feast, so let’s choose wisdom’s life-giving feast.

From Proverbs 6:1-5, we reflect on how we are to be wise in our words regarding finances and financial support.

Jonathan shares from Proverbs 1.20 - 2.8
Our Father is doing all that is needed for us to grow in wisdom, so will we respond as one seeking true treasure?
From Proverbs 1:7, let’s consider what it means to fear God and why it’s the key issue regarding godly wisdom
Welcome to this Come to Jesus Daily Devotional. Today, we begin our Wisdom for Life series from Proverbs. As we reflect on Proverbs 1:1-4, we are reminded that the pursuit of wisdom starts with humility and a recognition of our need of it.
The first preach in our new series - Wisdom for Life: A series from the book of Proverbs. Nev Floyd preaches from Proverbs 1:1-7.
This week we’ve been reviewing some of the things we’ve already looked at; today we reflect again on how God speaks and leads us to bring others to salvation in Christ.
Today, we return to Acts 8 to consider how we can become people who bring the hope of Christ in every season of life.
Today we return to Acts 6 and consider a powerful equation for fruitfulness in the Christian life:
Readiness + Willingness + Opportunity = Fruitfulness. If any of these are missing, we become ineffective.
Phil Mash revisits the preaches from our sermon series on Philip the Evangelist and asks, are we ready and willing to serve, give hope, listen and keep going for the glory of God?
Today, we reflect on what it meant for Philip’s daughters to prophesy, what prophecy is, and how we too can speak Spirit-led words that strengthen, encourage, and comfort others.

In the final part of teaching from the Weekend Away 2025, Henk Kersten teaches from 1 Samuel 14 and encourages us with the example of Jonathan the Armour Bearer.
In the second teaching from our Weekend Away 2025, Henk Kersten speaks on Jonah 4 and what we can learn from his example when considering God's calling on our lives.
In our first session from the Weekend Away 2025, Henk Kersten provides inspiration from his own life about challenges he has faced in pursuing God's calling, how His timing is perfect, and how we can approach mission as families and singles.
Jonathan and his young armour bearer challenge us to trust that God prepares good works in advance—and invites us to step out in courageous faith and encouragement.

Part #1. The promised destroyer of evil
From Luke 17:5-6, we consider how powerful prayer is that which is inspired by true faith - which is the gift of God.
From Luke 17:5-6, we consider how tiny faith has massive power, but we must put the faith that we currently have into practice in order to see victories and for our faith to grow.

Nev preaches from Luke 16 and challenges us to enter whole-heartedly into God's Kingdom and obey His word in all areas, including in our relationships and in how we use our money.
Our use of money is a measure of our hearts and our ability to handle greater gifts and influence in The Kingdom.
We are not to be so focussed on doing the big things that we fail to be trustworthy in and with the little and so miss this vital law of Kingdom success.
We often say that we want to serve God with all our lives and hearts, but are we prepared to serve Him with our wealth as He wants us to?
The worst people can be our best teachers because the worst people are often more skilful and focussed on getting what they want than are God’s children and this should not be!
Luke 16:1-15
The law of the little
Using the little that God gives
a vital law of success.

Welcome to the Come to Jesus Daily Devotional. This week, we’ve been reflecting on the theme of light. Today, we finish by considering how God’s light and nature are infinitely inspiring.
Welcome to the Come to Jesus Daily Devotional. Carrying on from yesterday’s devotional, I wanted to think a little more about our ministry of being witnesses to the light.
Welcome to the Come to Jesus Daily Devotional. Today, we consider how all life flows from God, and all forms of life - spiritual and natural - speak of the existence and nature of God.
Today let’s reflect on how those who come into His light have darkness increasingly cast out of their lives.
Welcome to the Come to Jesus Daily Devotional. Today, we reflect on the truth that the light and glory of God speak to us of His Holiness.
God’s light restores worship and holiness.
Our message on Sunday, Inspired from Psalm 76:4, Matt Beaney reflected on what it means for God to be ‘radiant light’. The Bible often uses light to speak of the appearance and ways of God; God’s light draws our attention to His holy and good nature, and, secondly, light speaks of His good ways that are casting darkness out of our lives. Our message can be summarised as: God’s light restores worship and holiness.
Today, using another phrase from Psalm 46, we consider the unstoppable truth that God’s will and mission cannot fail.

Welcome to this Come to Jesus Daily devotional where we are in our Summer Inspiration series. This week we’ve been considering the example of Jonathan and his armour bearer. Today, we look at Caleb, a character who was also faithful and courageous because, we are told, he had a ‘different spirit’.
This week have had a loose theme of seeking rest and help from God. Today, we finish by recalling the command to keep on being filled with the Spirit.
Today, we continue the theme of seeking rest and help from God by considering how we can all turn from God as the source of our rest and strength, and turn to idols.
Following on from yesterday’s devotional on rest, today, we reflect on how Jesus is our sabbath rest.
Today, we reflect on how The Holy Spirit wants to fill us with zeal for God as Jesus had zeal for God.
oday, we reflect on how The Holy Spirit transforms the thinking - the mindset - of those who receive Jesus.
Today, let’s meditate on what it means to have the same mindset as Christ in our service.
Following on from yesterday’s devotional in Matthew 16, today, we continue to reflect on this text and how we can ensure that we keep in mind the concerns of God.
Today, we reflect on how faith - often imperfect faith - will lead us to attempt difficult things.

Welcome to our summer series when our devotionals will be based on different texts of scripture that I’ve recently found inspirational. Today, we reflect on 1 Corinthians 3:6-7 and how God makes things grow.
Welcome to our summer series when our devotionals will be based on different texts of scripture that I’ve recently found inspirational. Today, we reflect on 1 Samuel 3:1.
Are we allowing the revelation of God’s patient mercy, and the promise of His coming judgement to inspire us to ‘dig and fertilise’ in patient and active mission?
If you are a Christian, you are bearing fruit and you will never be condemned. However, those who are outside of Christ will face judgement.
Holiness - a life of devotion to God - is the fruit that God wants to see in His people
Today, from Luke 13, we see how we are to handle the death of others by natural disasters and accidents.
The death of others should inspire us to reflect on our death and whether we are ready to meet God in judgement.
God wants us to become fruitful trees and help others to become fruitful trees through 'digging and fertilising.'
Matt preaches on Luke 13:1-9
Aș people respond to signs that they see in nature, so we are to believe the signs about Jesus and receive Him as Lord and Saviour.
Jesus’ baptism into death plunges us into a new life that involves salvation and may attract rejection.
We are to do what we know to be Jesus’ will. To know what’s right but fail to do it is a very serious thing!
Each of us is to be a ‘faithful and wise manager’ in the ways that Jesus has called us to serve Him.
To ‘seek first His kingdom and His righteousness’ means that we are to seek to know God and do His will as our priority, and regardless of the financial implications.
We will all face pressure to compromise or hide our faith. However, Jesus wants to give you courage by promising that He will give you the help of the Holy Spirit when you are under pressure.
The unforgivable sin of blasphemy against the Spirit is the ongoing rejection of Jesus. Those who receive Christ cannot be in such a state, and those who are weak need to stand on Christ rather than their feelings.
We will publicly acknowledge our faith if we are filled with a vision of the greatness and love of God.
Let the light of Christ cast out our inner darkness, or let the light of Christ reveal your darkness in judgement.
The devil wants to pull us into hypocrisy so that we are robbed of the true spiritual power that can do damage to the Kingdom of darkness.
Pursue spiritual health by allowing the light of Jesus’ Word to fill us and cast out all that is dark in us.
If we allow the light of Christ to shine on us, the light of Christ will shine from us. If we allow darkness to overshadow us, the shadows of darkness will be cast by us.
Jesus’ teaching - the whole Bible - is light for our lives, so let’s ensure that we allow it to shine onto us so that it can shine from us.
Those who listen to Christ will repent on a daily basis as they hear Him and realign themselves to His will.
‘The sign of Jonah’ is that as Jonah was 3 days in the depths of the sea, so Jesus’ 3 days in the grave and His resurrection are a sign that we are lost but can be found through faith in Christ.
Jesus experienced rejection for His message and so will we. So let’s be content to be like Christ and to seek Jesus for His love and courage to continue.
Those who are cleansed of sin and demonic oppression or demonic teaching, need to be filled with God’s Word and The Spirit so as to be protected from repeated invasions.
Jesus is the ‘stronger man’ and the one who binds Satan as He works through His church to plunder the Kingdom of darkness.
The Holy Spirit wants to enjoy the gift or righteousness, peace and joy, but also to grow in these attributes that mark out citizens of the Kingdom of God.
The Holy Spirit wants to fill us with hope (expectation) that Jesus will build a church community of joy and peace out of people from diverse backgrounds.
The Holy Spirit wants to fill us with God’s love, and so drive out hopelessness and fill us with hope.
Jesus has promised to continue to work in us and through us by the Holy Spirit. So let’s believe His promise and ask to be filled with the Spirit’s presence.
Jesus teaches us to begin prayer with praise, and God has revealed Himself in His Word so we can accurately know and worship Him.
This week, Matt Beaney continues in our Luke series. In The Lord's Prayer, Jesus wants to teach us to pray by using the structure that He gives to us, that, over time, will become natural to us.
If we are to make listening to Jesus is our priority, we must say no to other less important things.
We know that we are distracted from Jesus, rather than busy in His service, when we are regularly assaulted with anger.
Jesus, again, emphasises the importance of listening to His Word and He uses Mary’s example as a model for us.
Jesus’ death on the cross was Him taking the punishment for our sin and by His wounds we are healed.
Jesus’ death, although carried out by people who are guilty of their sin, was, ultimately, according, to God’s plan to save sinners.
Let’s make the message of the cross central to our message because it has the power to save.
God’s goodness is most clearly seen in the death of Christ, and His goodness is most enjoyed by those who live near the cross.
Jesus, through His suffering and death, has washed us of sin and opens the way for us to be filled with His presence by the Spirit who fills us with peace.
Jesus, through His suffering and death, has washed us of sin and opens the way for us to be filled with His presence by the Spirit who fills us with peace.
Even on the darkest days, Jesus wants us to generously pour out our worship, which is a beautiful thing and the most important things that we do.
During these ‘Last Days’ there are many things that test our faith and love, so let’s be aware and prepared so as to remain faithful and loving.
Jesus wants us to bear good fruit which will be seen in our making space for Him in worship.
Matt preaches from Luke 10. Jesus wants us to be involved in His harvest so let’s pray, sow, reap and send.
To be a disciple requires that we leave our old lives and live a new life as Jesus’ disciples. So don’t look back or go back, but keep looking ahead to where Jesus is leading.
Following Jesus must take precedence even over those who are dear to us or customs that are expected of us.
Jesus knows the cost of following God as He went to the cross and He both sets us the example and will give us the grace to imitate Him in costly obedience.
We are all tempted to pursue false greatness and we must learn to pursue sacrificial service -modelled on the glory of the cross - which is true greatness
God wants to amaze us as He reveals Jesus’ glory to us so as to inspire us to listen and obey Him.
Time in private leads to greater revelation of Jesus, and then to greater sacrificial devotion to Jesus.
(The same as yesterday) Jesus stretches us as He calls us to do more than we can so that we learn to rely on Jesus more than we currently do.
Jesus stretches us as He calls us to do more than we can so that we learn to rely on Jesus more than we currently do.
Jesus has revealed His identity, power, and intention to heal, so we must believe and keep praying for the sick in body and soul.
We wage war on dark powers, and they attack us throughout this age. So we are to be aware and fight with His methods.
Demons know who Jesus is and submit to His greater power and so we are to pray against evil and be free from the fear of evil.
Jesus reveals His identity and power over creation so we can put our faith in Him in all things.
God’s adopted children, by The Spirit, are becoming like Jesus, which is God’s great goal.
If we are born again and adopted into God’s family, this will show itself in Christlike love for one another.
Jem continues our series through Luke. Jesus changes our lives so that others can see His light through our example, our words and our loving service.
Matt Beaney continues our series in Luke. This week we learn that Jesus wants us to "be good soil so as to become a good sower". God wants to help us to become good hearers - good soil - for his word so as to be mature and go on to share His word.
