Many of you have been journeying with us through the Miracles of Jesus on our ETJ Broadcast. It is always wonderful to be reminded that Christ is enough, and we trust that you will continue to meditate much on the sufficiency of Christ in the days ahead. As a help to that end, we want to encourage you to download our Miracles Reference Guide.

We are entering the final weeks of our series through the miracles of Jesus! If you have not yet joined us for this study, you may view the entire library of episodes here.

There are many wonderful tools available in today’s age of information. However, as we study the miracles of Christ, we would like to recommend one particular resource: My Lord and My God: A Harmony of the Life of Christ in the Gospels. This book has been a tremendous help in preparation for our current ETJ series. We find in it a parallel of the Gospels that will help you follow in the Master’s steps. As you study, it will be as if you are traveling with Christ. Follow as He journeys from a humble cradle to His triumph at the cross and resurrection.

This outstanding work was written by our friend Edward Barclay, and will be a tremendous addition to your library. This very thorough volume is filled with helpful images, illustrations, timelines, and much more.

Below are some sneak peeks into what you will find inside…

 

You may purchase a copy of My Lord and My God, here. We pray this book will be a great aid to you as you seek to know Christ better each day.

Authors Introduction to My Lord and My God:

There is, perhaps, no greater Biblical pursuit than to study the words, actions, and life of Jesus the Christ. Jesus is the express image of the Father’s person; Jesus is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world; and Jesus is the ever-living One who is at this moment interceding for His beloved. Jesus is the Word made flesh, and Jesus is the Word of life. Jesus is God the Son, and Jesus is the Son of God. Jesus is the friend of the fatherless, and Jesus is the finisher of our faith. To see Jesus is to see the Father. When Thomas, consumed by doubt, first beheld the resurrected Jesus, his fears instantly melted; in this moment, the only fitting words Thomas could utter describing his risen Saviour were “My Lord and my God.”

Now, I am no engineer! But the principle applies to us all: The easiest thing in the world is to have a complicated life. The hardest thing in the world is to have a simple life. You have to work hard to keep it simple.

You Have to Work Hard to Keep it Simple

The idea of building a monument was not that of Joshua, but of God. God instructed Joshua to have twelve men remove a stone from a prescribed place, place it on their shoulders and bear it up out of Jordan. It was to be taken to their place of lodging. What purpose could possibly be served in carrying twelve large river rocks approximately six or seven miles to Gilgal? God said to! In Joshua, we find that God is a monument builder. 

The Monument Builder

In the Second Boer War in South Africa, 13,000 British troops were trapped for 118 days in what is now known as the Siege of Ladysmith. Food diminished, and disease grew. Worst of all, discouragement set in. A civilian was arrested, tried, and sentenced to a year in jail for being a discourager! This man was not a traitor, but he walked around town and spoke discouraging things to men who were on guard against the enemy. The deepest wound you can inflict is to wound a person’s spirit (Proverbs 18:14). Image of the relief of the siege

The Power of Encouragement and the Peril of Discouragement 

In 2 Kings 5, we read a tale of three servants: Naaman, the Little Maid, and Gehazi. No matter your past, you can find healing like Naaman. Regardless of your circumstances, like the maid, God can bless and use you for eternity. Even if you have experienced great victory, you can fall into sin, just like Gehazi.
