I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 3rd of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We go to the last book of the Bible, Revelation 3:20:

“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.“

So often we want to receive from God. How often do we want to give God what we have? I can hear somebody say, “I have got nothing to give Him.” Oh yes, you have plenty to give Him. Do you remember the little boy that Jesus asked the disciples to find out if any of the men, 5000 of them, had anything, any food, to give Him? I am sure many of those men had food, but they were not giving it to Jesus. There was a little boy, his mommy had probably packed him a little lunch bag and said, “There are two little sardines and five little barley loaves of bread. You go and have that lunch when you go and listen to Jesus.” He gave his all to Jesus. Jesus took it, prayed over it, multiplied it and fed 5000 men. But you see, the little boy gave to Jesus.

Now, this Bible verse is two-fold. The Lord said, “I will come in and dine with you and you with Me.” Now, what is it that we can give to the Lord? Well, I want to tell you a little story. My wife, Jill, and I were up in Central Africa many years ago, staying with a very poor family. These Zambians had very little to eat, but this pastor had a small congregation. His congregation came every day, and they brought one egg each, and those eggs were to feed Jill and me. We had two fried eggs every morning, and every morning they brought food for us. Now, we had plenty of food, and they knew that, but they brought what they had to us.

That touched me so deeply. I didn’t even want to eat the eggs, but I knew if I didn’t, I would have offended them. So I ate those eggs heartily and thanked them, and blessed them for their love towards Jill and I. I want to tell you, Jesus today is saying, “What have you got for me? I am coming in to dine with you, to eat your food, and I want you to eat My food.” We need to share what we have with one another because He says “As much as you have done it unto the least of these, My brethren, you have done it to Me.” If you feed someone today who cannot repay you, you are feeding the Lord.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.
Goodbye.

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Monday morning, the 2nd of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in the Gospel of Luke 5:5:

“But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.”

Then we know what happened after that. He caught so many fish that the net was breaking, and he had to call the other disciples to help him pull in a massive catch.

Then we go to Galatians 6:9:

“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”

Once more, once more - you say, “I can’t.” You can and you must. Cast it out once more, cast that net out. “But we have tried everything, and it is not working." “Once more”, the Lord said to the disciples. They said, “We have been fishing all night. He said, “Once more.”

Remember the story, I think I have told it to you maybe a few years ago, about the Scottish King, Robert the Bruce. He was getting a terrible hiding from the English, and he was hiding in a cave. He was just about all done. He had tried everything, and he sat in that cave, and he saw a spider. This spider was trying to swing across the mouth of the cave from one side to the other, and he watched it. It tried once, it failed, it tried twice, it failed, it tried three times and it failed. It kept doing it and eventually got to the other side. That Scottish King went outside, he rallied his troops, and he won the battle.

I want to say to you today, I don’t know what it is, maybe it is healing that you are looking for for your body. Maybe it’s a relationship. You say, “I just can’t do any more.” Once more, go and see them once more, cast your net out once more. That crop that I planted, nothing is coming up. Plant again. Those animals that I am trusting for, for healing, just keep on trusting God and He will see you through.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.
Goodbye.

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Sunday morning, the 1st of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in the Book of Numbers 12:4:

“Suddenly the Lord said to Moses, Aaron and Miriam, ”Come out you three, to the tabernacle of meeting!” So the three came out.’

Then we go to Ephesians 5:22:

”Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.”

Then verse 25:

”Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself for her,…”

Then the last one is Ephesians 6:1:

”Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.”

We’re talking about family. You know it’s the hardest place to be a Christian, in your own home! Let’s be honest with each other this morning. We are talking about an incredible family. Aaron, Moses and Miriam. Do you know that Miriam was the older sister of Moses and Aaron was Moses’ older brother, he was Moses’ right-hand man? This wasn’t just any family. This was a very special family in God’s eyes and yet they fell out. They had an argument, so badly that God had to intervene, and He told them to behave themselves.

I want to say to you today, you have been put in a family by God. You can’t choose your family, can you? Yes, what do they say? You can choose your friends, but you can’t choose your family. We need to work it out. Now God put a system in the family and this is how it works, I’m telling you, it says it in the Bible: Wives, you are to submit to your husbands, husbands you are to love your wives, and the Bible says, children you are to obey your parents. If you get that right then you are going to have a very special family.

So what can we do about it? Number one, we need to start praying together every day. ”No, but I don’t want to.” It’s not about what you want. It’s about what God wants. Pray together, all of you, whether it’s in the morning before you go to school, or go to work, or whether it’s in the evening before you go to bed, pray together.

What’s the next thing? Talk to each other. Sit down and talk about it. That’s exactly what happened with Moses, Aaron and Miriam and God sorted it out.

I remember an old couple. They told me that they used to lie on their bed on a Sunday afternoon and talk about all the things that had gone wrong during the week, and ask each other for forgiveness and get ready to face the new week.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day together as a family.
Goodbye.
