Sermons on Numbers

Israel Shall Dwell Alone (38 min)

PART 3 – Tom West preaches on the Israel’s separation as a picture of ours. He takes up the subject under three headings: the strangeness, strength and sufficiency of separation. Israel’s walk and worship were designed to be different to the surrounding nations. “Dwelling alone” and not intermingling meant they remained strong and retained their identity. In this difficult path, God promised to meet all their needs. Readings: Exod 34:11-17, Num 22:1-2, 5-6, 23:7-10, Deut 7:1-6, 17:14-15 (Message preached 10th…

The Consecration of the Servant (39 min)

A challenging message urging total consecration to God in service for His glory. Lessons from the Nazarite about self-control, content and connections are powerfully applied (Message preached 21st Feb 2015)

Moses – Rebellious Relatives (26 min)

The Feast of Trumpets (29 min)

PART 5 – Joshua Jacob preaches on Israel’s fifth annual feast, “The Feast of Trumpets”.

The Sin of Jealousy (49 min)

Philip Kaye preaches on the sin of Miriam and Aaron in Numbers 12.

A challenging message on how jealousy and bitterness can hinder an assembly’s progress (Message preached 16th Feb 2012)
