Prayer College: January 2014
http://prayercollege.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Saturday, January 04, 2014. There are certain things in this world which seem almost completely incomprehensible, which stir up in us feelings of irritation and anger. But these complaints are trivial compared to my utter frustration at myself as I echo the words of the 18th Century hymn writer, William Cowper:. Lord, it is my chief complaint. That my love is weak and faint. Why do I find it so easy to abandon the time I should be spending with Him?

A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Saturday, November 09, 2013. And The Wall Came Tumbling Down. By faith the walls of Jericho fell. Today is the 24th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall. It was one of the most important events of modern European history and yet the full story of powerful prayer is rarely told. Over the years many people tried to escape from the communist East to the West via the Berlin Wall. Few were successful, most were shot. By BBC's Peter Crutchley. Meanwhile...

Prayer College: September 2013

A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Monday, September 30, 2013. Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament. The Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me. I have found that the more I study the Old Testament, the more I see foreshadowings of Jesus. Some are quite clear such as the suffering servant of Isaiah 53. Others are more subtle like the offspring of the woman in Genesis 3:15. There are in fact, a surprisin...

A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Sunday, June 29, 2014. He Said it with Flowers. Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Jesus said it and it's true. When you give away, you get back. This has happened to me numerous times. But I've been challenged afresh about my giving in terms of where my treasure is. Normally the street outside is empty ...

Prayer College: The Grace of God - a Gift
http://prayercollege.blogspot.com/2014/02/the-grace-of-god-gift.html
A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Thursday, February 20, 2014. The Grace of God - a Gift. It is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God. Grace is one of those biblical concepts which we often find we have a somewhat woolly understanding of. We have a feeling we know approximately what it means but please don't ask us to define it. When I try to explain it to others I often introduce it this way:. But, before we look further at...

Prayer College: December 2013
http://prayercollege.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Sunday, December 08, 2013. A lot of things that are being spoken of today as the ministry of the Holy Spirit, it´s just emotional exuberance. Because people don´t know what is soul and what is spirit. Young people are so often taken up with that exuberance and say, `Oh, this is Holy Spirit.´ It´s not, if it were Holy Spirit it would bring holiness. I disagree with Zac Poonen. However, the Bible is clear on the matter. Just as God is Trinity, we too are ...

Prayer College: In Memory
http://prayercollege.blogspot.com/2009/04/in-memory.html
A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Friday, April 10, 2009. Do this in remembrance of me." Luke 22:19. I have been reading Henri Nouwen's 'Life Of The Beloved' this week. I have found in it so many expressions of the experience of my own intimacy with Jesus. In one place he says, "Every time you listen with great attentiveness to the voice that calls you the Beloved, you will discover within yourself a desire to hear that voice longer and more deeply.". Surely we discover a wholeness in t...

Prayer College: February 2013

A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Thursday, February 21, 2013. He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. A local church is holding a prayer event. For five days the building is permanently open for anyone to come in and pray. That in itself is unusual these days and deserves commendation. But Beeches Evangelical Church isn't just opening its doors. It has filled the space with aids to prayer. I have written before about Sacred Spaces. To desc...

A Ministry of Handsworth Wood Christian Fellowship. Saturday, July 27, 2013. Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. So how can we know the way? Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father also. From now on, you do know him. And you have seen him.”. Where Are We Going? There are two overriding views in our world today. The first is that there is no way to God because there...
