Malvern Mashal?
The Hebrew word ‘mashal’ means ‘to speak’ (as in a prophetic
utterance).
(Wikipedia also defines ‘mashal’ as being ‘a short parable with
a moral lesson or religious allegory).
‘Prophetic utterance’ seems to encapsulate what so many of our
send outs have been about for the past thirty years.
We pray you will be blessed and challenged as you journey with
us on our pilgrimage with the Lord Jesus. |

Incisive
Intercession
Prayer is not simply
getting things from God – that is a most initial form of prayer;
prayer is getting into perfect communion with God. If the Son of
God is formed in us by regeneration, He will press forward in
front of our common sense and change our attitude to the things
about which we pray . . . |

Good Intentions
Back on New Year's Day I
gave a talk in church that set out to be a spiritual MOT as well
as a launch pad for the year. I enlarged on this in the opening
session of our house party weekend, looking at a range of Ideas,
Ideals and Intentions, inevitably all beginning with the letter
I. We will be reproducing parts of this over the next few
editions - the material is by no means time sensitive and we
hope you will find it helpful to meditate on. |

'Overweight'.
That was the word the
Lord gave me this week in one of my morning devotions. No, it
has nothing to do with eating too many chips! Rather, this
edition explores the idea of 'issues that hang over us,' looking
particularly at the examples of Mary, Peter and Paul then moving
on to pray for people who are feeling overwhelmed by
difficulties of many kinds. |

The Power of Hope.
The early Church used three main symbols to epitomise the
Christian faith: the fish, the dove and the anchor. Of these
three, the anchor is the least spoken of today, yet Hebrews 6:19
reminds us that we have this hope as an anchor for the soul,
firm and secure. |

Praying for Iran
The way God is currently touching
people in Iran is nothing short of miraculous. Only He can use
the extreme difficulties of life under the present regime in
such a way as to propel people towards the good news of Jesus

Part One
In all that He was, and in all that He did, Jesus demonstrated
the authority that was uniquely His as the Son of God. No one
ever taught as He did, let alone healed the humanly incurable,
yet He
left us with a challenge: to do the same and even more. |

A Message for the Mature -Times of Shaking
The book of Hebrews
speaks about constant practice helping us to discern not only
between good and evil but, more subtly, between good and best.
How we need people trained in spiritual discernment, who can
read the dynamics of what is going on in situations, ministries
as well as individual lives, both to avoid wrong things and to
find God’s best way forward. . . |

The Stature of Waiting
Try to imagine how Elijah
felt during the years he spent in the widow’s house at Zarephath.
With no official role to play, and no obvious function to
fulfil, who could blame him if he began to wonder if God as well
as life had not passed him by. . .

The Seamless
Garment
Before the power of the
Spirit came the disciples were divided, but in Acts 4:32 we see
that they were together in one heart and mind. They are now a
seamless garment. May the Lord bring about yet deeper unity in
the Body of Christ. |

The Shrinking
Brook
Elijah was directed by God to go to the Brook Cherith but day by
day he watched the water level shrinking as a result of the
drought the Lord had instructed him to proclaim. What a
challenge!
What do we do when we find ourselves in 'shrinking brook'
situations?
Is God enough? |

The Voice of the Prophet
- a study of Isaiah 19
If there is one prophet above all others whom one could say has
a ‘world’ vision, you would have to go for Isaiah. As we follow
the rise and fall of his soaring visions, and heed the
passionate challenges that pierce our habitual complacency, we
know at once that we are in the presence of vision and genius of
a kind that surpasses even Shakespeare's plays or Bach's music.
