sermonsonruth: Ruth 2:4-16
http://nashonruth.blogspot.com/2006/07/ruth-24-16.html
Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of ruth by richard myerscough. Thursday, July 06, 2006. The writer of the book of Ruth has presented the story in terms of chance and luck. In 2:3. Ruth just happens to find herself in Boaz's field, a relative of Naomi's and a possible help to them. But what seems like 'Lady Luck' at work is actually the one true God who is over all things and who delights to bless his children and to overrule in their lives. That is extended in v.4. We saw in v.1. Years ago, a book w...

sermonsonexodus: Exodus 7:14 – 10:29 Nine Plagues
http://nashonexodus.blogspot.com/2006/06/exodus-714-1029-nine-plagues.html
Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of exodus. Wednesday, June 28, 2006. Exodus 7:14 – 10:29 Nine Plagues. 1 God, the Sovereign Lord. The plagues that the Lord sent upon Egypt are the clearest statement of his absolute sovereignty and his utter resolve that he will indeed act to deal with sin and redeem his fallen creation. Those points are made in a host of ways in these great acts of judgement. Now, how should all this impact us? Perhaps the most direct impact it is to have is to move us with a sense ...

sermonsonexodus: Sermon on Exodus 5:1-21
http://nashonexodus.blogspot.com/2006/05/sermon-on-exodus-51-21.html
Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of exodus. Saturday, May 27, 2006. Sermon on Exodus 5:1-21. 1 Boldness and Confrontation (vv.1-5). It is entirely right that we should be confident in the Lord, that we have assurance his word will be fulfilled and his will be done. We need have no diffidence in standing on God’s Word and acting in the light of it. Moses who began so very timidly in Midian now walks boldly into Pharaoh’s presence, strengthened in the Lord. And this is what we see all around us –...

Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of exodus. Monday, July 17, 2006. 1 Songs in scripture…. I want to begin by reading some comments made on the back of a study of what is often called The Song of the Sea. The songs of scripture] give us a glimpse of who God is and, therefore, what our proper stance toward him should be. But the point that the songs we sing don’t simply express our moods but help to shape them is of great significance. It’s what we see at Col. 3:16: “Let the w...The songs we sing teach...

Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of exodus. Wednesday, July 26, 2006. When you have been so signally blessed in the most amazing deliverance, as Israel had been, what would you expect to come next? Surely it ought to be the final completion of the Lord’s promised redemption coming true? Having crossed the Red Sea on dry ground, this was probably very far from what Israel expected. But the wilderness would be a place of profound, and often shocking, discoveries for Israel. Having had such sultry weath...

sermonsonexodus: October 2006
http://nashonexodus.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of exodus. Friday, October 20, 2006. Although it is early days for Israel, a pattern is being set here. The problem is not just Egypt; it is that "the whole world is under the control of the evil one" (1 John 5:19). The battles that Israel face are spiritual in nature; they arise from Satan's opposition to the Lord and his plans to reconcile all things to himself and to heal his fractured creation. 2 Deliverance through human effort and God's help. When Israel was res...

sermonsonexodus: Exodus 11:1 - 13:16
http://nashonexodus.blogspot.com/2006/07/exodus-111-1316.html
Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of exodus. Saturday, July 08, 2006. Exodus 11:1 - 13:16. 1 The Final Judgement. The first nine plagues have spoken powerfully to Pharaoh and his people of the Lord’s decided intent to release his people from Egypt. His purposes for the whole creation will not be held back nor thwarted by the sinful oppression of Pharaoh and his gods. Have you responded to that call? 2 Delivered and Consecrated Through Blood. There were no distinctions between the people of Egypt ̵...

sermonsonexodus: Exodus 17:1-7
http://nashonexodus.blogspot.com/2006/08/exodus-171-7.html
Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of exodus. Tuesday, August 22, 2006. Israel are well and truly in the wilderness and have been for some time now. The problem for them is that the wilderness “is no longer simply a place but a state of mind” (Fretheim). They are caught in- between promise and fulfilment and that poses significant challenges to their faith. The mistake Israel makes here is to assume that being led by the Lord means a life without difficulty; as one writer has helpfully said, “God...

sermonsonexodus: Exodus 16:1-36
http://nashonexodus.blogspot.com/2006/08/exodus-161-36.html
Uncorrected sermon notes on the book of exodus. Monday, August 14, 2006. A desert is a hostile environment. Even for those used to living there, life in the wilderness poses severe challenges. And that is a picture the Bible often uses to describe the Christian life. Here, we see Israel is a physical desert but it is also more than that. For them, it is a place of spiritual challenge. And in the scene before us, a food crisis turns into a faith crisis. Are you looking to be an encouragement to others?
