  • Our Food
    2025/11/04

    I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 4th of November, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

    We go to the Gospel of John 4:34:

    “Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work.”

    We want to speak about food. What is your favourite food? Well, being a cattle farmer, my favourite food has got to be steak! I know that I have one young man who is very dear to me, and his favourite food is vegetables because he is a vegan. So we have got a lot of things to talk about. He respects what I love and I respect what he loves. But you know, we are not talking about that kind of food, are we? No. We are talking about doing the will of the Father. That is what fills us up more than any physical food.

    I love to carry a pocketful of sweets. That’s right. I can hear mothers say, “That is not good for the children.” Well, mom, a little sweet is not going to hurt them, and when I go to church these little children come and stand around me and I know why they are there, because they know I have a sweetie for them. Visitors must think, “Aah, look at the way the children flock to Uncle Angus - oh, it must be because he is a holy man.” No, it’s because children love sweets! But folks, I want to tell you now, it’s so important to do the thing that God has told you to do. Jesus said, “My food is to do the will of Him (His Heavenly Father who sent Him)…” And not only that, but to finish the job.

    I don’t know about you, but when I have had the chance to speak to somebody who is struggling, someone who just needs prayer, or a young person who needs godly counsel, that is the food that sustains me. After I have been to a meeting where I have been able to pray for someone in hospital, where I have been able to preach the Gospel to a crowd of people and see the response, that fills me more than any physical food.

    Today, go out and do the will of Jesus Christ and love people, and I want to tell you, you will be filled to the brim, pressed down, shaken together and running over.

    Jesus bless you today, as you eat the food that the Father is going to give you.
    God bless you and goodbye.

  • Be Holy
    2025/11/03

    I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Monday morning, the 3rd of November, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

    If you listen very carefully, you can hear the rain on my tin roof. Oh, it’s like music from heaven, I tell you what!

    We start in the Book of Leviticus 11:44:

    ”…and you shall be holy; for I am holy.”

    That’s the Lord speaking. We go to 1 Peter 1:16:

    ”because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

    You and I serve a holy God. Holiness is so important in our lifestyle, the way in which we love our Lord and Saviour, and people can see it from far. Oh, I want to tell you, they are watching you and they are watching me. The way in which we behave towards our beloved Jesus. If we love Him, we must respect Him, we must honour Him and we must give Him first place in our lives always. Do you know that the scribes in the Bible would change their clothes and wash their bodies before they even wrote the name of Jehovah on a parchment? Isn’t that amazing? When an Orthodox Jew writes me a letter and he signs the letter at the bottom and says, “God bless you”, he spells God, G-D, He will not even write the name of God.

    I don’t know about you, but there’s nothing more pleasing to the eye than to see the way in which a young man or a young woman respects their elders. I love it. I love to see a young man walk an old lady across the road when she’s waiting for the traffic lights to change. I love to see the way in which a young man will take an old man’s rucksack and put it on his back and carry it for him with out even being asked, but I also want to say to you, there’s nothing more hurtful for me and I’m sure for you, than to see young people pushing old people aside so they can be first in the queue. It’s very disrespectful.

    When you go to the house of the Lord, remember you are going to honour God and one day you are going to see Him, face to face. It is going to be a glorious day. I know what’s going to happen. He will run to you and love and hug you, but never forget that He is a holy God who deserves our love and utmost respect at all times.

    God bless you and have a wonderful day,
    Goodbye.

  • Complete the Job
    2025/11/02

    I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Sunday morning, the 2nd of November, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

    We go straight to the Gospel of John 3:35:

    The Father loves the Son and has given and entrusted all things into His hand.”

    Our Heavenly Father gave Jesus all authority and all responsibility, and Jesus fulfilled and completed the responsibility right to the last letter. He died on the cross for your sins, for my sins. He set us free. He put the devil down once and for all, and then He went back to Heaven to be with His Father. But before He went back, He told His disciples that He will not leave us as orphans. Homeless, with no leaders. He said, ”I am sending you My Holy Spirit.” In Greek the name is, Parakletos, which means “the Helper”. “I am sending you the Helper so that you can complete the entrusting that God has given to me.” That’s what Jesus said.

    Now in the amplified version, reading that today, in both scriptures, we go to John 16:7: But I tell you the truth, (Jesus said) it is to your advantage (our advantage) that I go away (that I go home, that I go back to My Father in Heaven); for if I do not go away, the Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby) will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him (the Holy Spirit) to you [to be in close fellowship with you].

    I want to speak today, not only to men but to women, to young people, to leaders. The Lord never expected us to do it on our own. Our Father in Heaven sent His Son down to earth because He saw that we were failing terribly. The Son did the work. He’s gone back to the Father but He’s left us with His Holy Spirit. He says, ”Now you” (That’s you and me, sir, you and me, young lady) “complete the job.” You know, it’s a handing over, it’s a responsibility.

    In these Olympic relay races, the most important part of the race is handing the baton over. If you drop the baton, you are disqualified, and there’s only a certain place that you can hand it over. There are two lines. You’ve got a few yards. You’re running at a full sprint. You need to be in unison with the person that you’re giving the baton to. Today, you and I need to understand that our Heavenly Father has given us the authority, he has given us the ability. Now we need to do it, we need to do it fast and we need to do it safely.

    Let’s finish the job.
    Jesus bless you and goodbye.

  • The Victory
    2025/11/01

    I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Saturday morning, the 1st of November, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

    We start in 1 Samuel 17:45

    Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you.”

    What a powerful scripture!

    Then we go straight to 2 Corinthians 10:4-5:

    For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,”

    What an incredible scripture!

    Today, we are on our way to war. Yes, we are. We are going down to Cape Town, the southernmost city in our beloved country of South Africa. A most beautiful place, but there is a war going on in the Cape Flats as I speak to you. We are going to assist. We are going to support. We are going into the fight, and we are going to take satan’s head off, just like David took the head of Goliath off, and we are not going with firearms. No, we are going with the word of God.

    Even as the young boy David said to the giant, ”You come against me with spears and swords. I come against you with the name of the Lord God of Israel.” It is going to be a most wonderful day of victory. I cannot wait. In fact, the victory is already there. We are just going to join up with God’s men in the Athlone Stadium in the Cape Flats. Please, gentlemen, if you are not planning to come, come along, because you will see something you will never, ever forget as long as you live, and one day you will sit with your grandchild on your lap and that child will ask you, ”Were you there, grandad?” I hope you will be able to say, ”Yes indeed, I was there, the day that the Lord Jesus Christ came down in fire and authority and defeated the devil once and for all!”

    Please pray for us.
    God bless you and goodbye.

  • The Harvest
    2025/10/31

    I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Friday morning, the 31st of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

    We go to the Gospel of John 4:35:

    ”Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!”

    Do not be unprepared for the greatest harvest the world has ever seen. The signs are all there. The question is, are you ready to bring it in? Are you prepared? Is your harvesting equipment in order? In this day and age, the scythe that they used in the old days to cut down the wheat and the corn is not sufficient. The harvest is too great and the time is too short. It is time for that huge four-row, six-row mechanical harvester that can harvest literally hundreds of acres in a day. Remember, we need to be ready.

    I remember as a young farmer, once passing a farm where a man had a beautiful crop of maize. Golden unto harvest. It was magnificent, but every day that I rode past that farm, nothing was happening and then I saw in the corner of the farm, he was planting a crop of cabbages but the time was running out. He could not see it, and the tragedy was that in the end, when he did start to harvest this beautiful crop of maize, it was too late. It was springtime and the rain began to come and blew the crop over and the crop rotted in the ground.

    Today is the day of salvation, not tomorrow. Tell that loved one today, they must be ready for the coming of the Lord. Tell those people who are sitting on the fence, you need to make up your mind. Are you going to be part of what God has prepared for us or are you not? Because you cannot be indecisive. We really need to get our act together. Get that harvester into the field. Get the crop in while there is still time left.

    Jesus bless you and have a wonderful harvesting day today,
    Goodbye.

  • Fasting
    2025/10/30

    I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 30th of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

    Matthew 17:21. Jesus says:

    ”However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”

    Now remember the story, the disciples could not cure the young man who was demonised. They failed. Jesus came in, prayed over him, cast out the demon immediately. They came to the Lord, they said. ”Lord, how come we could not do that?” And He said, ”This kind only comes out except by prayer and fasting.” He said, ”If you’ve got faith the size of a mustard seed, you can tell that mountain to move from here to there, and nothing will be impossible.”

    We need to fast today. I have asked very humbly that you will join me. In a couple of days time we are going to the Cape Flats in Cape Town, South Africa and we are believing for a full stadium of young men. It is a Mighty Men Conference and we are going to trust God for a complete encounter with the Holy Spirit, and we want to purify ourselves, even today. Now you might ask, well, I can’t fast because medically the doctors have said I’ve got to keep eating. That’s fine, it’s no problem. Maybe you can spend a little less time watching television and read your Bible and pray a little more. Maybe today, you can go without something that is very special to you. Maybe you like eating chocolate, what about giving it a break?

    You say, ”Come on. Angus, fasting is a bit more important than that.” No, it’s not. It’s a time when we will remember the Lord. Maybe you need to just drink water today and nothing else. Maybe you need to have an extra quiet time in the middle of the day and pray for the situation that we are going to face on Saturday. Young people are getting murdered daily. Young children are getting caught up in the cross fire. Old people are getting murdered in their homes through the gang wars. It’s got to stop, and we are asking you to please fast and pray with us so that the Lord can completely take over in that stadium.

    Never before in my life have I been so excited about what God is going to do on the 1st of November at two o’clock in the afternoon in the Cape Flats in South Africa, when we face up to this terrible slaughter that is taking place, and in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, we will cast it out.

    Please fast today with us.
    God bless you and have a special day today.
    Goodbye.

  • According to the Blueprint
    2025/10/29

    I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 29th of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

    We start in the Book of Exodus 25:40, and this is what the Lord says to Moses:

    ”And see to it that you make them according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain.”

    The building of the tabernacle - keep it to the pattern.

    Then we go straight to the Gospel of John 14:15. Jesus says:

    “If you love Me, keep My commandments.”

    Don’t tell people you love them, then do the opposite. “You shall know them by their fruit,” Jesus says. An apple tree produces apples, and an orange tree produces oranges. We really need to keep to the pattern. You know what a blueprint is, young man? A blueprint is something that you have been given by a builder, and then he says, ”Build it according to the blueprint. Do not change anything because it is proven, this building will stand if you build it according to the blueprint.”

    Smith Wigglesworth said, ”Jesus said it, I believe it and that settles it.” No arguments! What does the word say, that is your pattern for this life. That is your blueprint. You know the wisest man that ever lived, according to the word of God, was Solomon, and if you look at Ecclesiastes 1:9, He said, ’ ... And there is nothing new under the sun.” It has all happened before, it will all happen again, but we’ve got some whizz-kids thinking they are inventing something new. Nothing new under the sun. I sound like an old man, don’t I? Well, I’m getting old, and I want to tell that young lady, I wish that I knew when I was your age what I know now, and I wouldn’t have made so many mistakes and I wouldn’t have hurt so many people.

    The Lord told a farmer named Noah to build an ark. He said build it according to the blueprint, and he did, and the ark never sank, did it? There is nothing new. Running your home - run it according to the principles of God. Discipline in your house, love your wife, submit to your husband, respect your parents, discipline your children. These are according to the blueprint.

    What about business? “Aah, my people don’t want to work for me.” Maybe because you don’t pay them correctly. What about having a quiet time every morning? You say, ”Uncle Angus, you’re always telling us that.” Of course, I am, because that’s where you’ll get your instructions for the blueprint that you are going to implement on that day.

    Practise what you have been taught.
    Jesus bless you and goodbye.

  • No Fishing
    2025/10/28

    I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 28th of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

    We start in the Book of John. Now, the most famous verse in the whole Bible has got to be John 3:16. Ask your little girl, your little boy as you are driving them to school and they will quote it for you and they will:

    “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

    But don’t we often just stop there? What about verse 17? Now, this morning, the Lord Jesus impressed upon me to share with you the importance of the next verse, verse 17:

    “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.”

    Oh, what a beautiful scripture!

    The Lord does not condemn you today, Sir. The Lord came to forgive you of all your sins so that you can live a life that is abundant. If we go to Romans 8:1, I will confirm that: “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus,...” If you love the Lord Jesus with all your heart today, He says, “I do not condemn you”, He says, “I came to set you free.”

    When the Father forgives, He forgets. Isn’t that beautiful? When you forgive somebody for something they have done and you have a bit of an off day, what do you do? Oh yes, you do! I do as well, ”Remember that thing that you did the other day?” No, when the Lord forgives, He forgets.

    “Lord, remember that sin I committed before I became a Christian?”

    “No, I don’t remember it at all, and I don’t want to hear about it.”

    What do we need to do this morning? We need to repent. Say sorry for the thing we have done and then move on with our life. Now this is important that I am going to share with you. It is the devil, satan, who condemns you, but Jesus convicts you. There is a big difference. He says, “Listen, get your life right. Stop that nonsense, stop having that affair because it is going to catch you out and destroy your marriage, stop that drinking because it is going to kill you.”

    I want to say to you as we close, I remember a long time ago hearing a story about a little lake, and there is a big signboard which says, “No fishing here!” Now, you take that sin, that thing that is condemning you, throw it into that lake and put that sign up, “No fishing,” and move on with your life for Jesus. He loves you. That’s why He died for you.

    Have a wonderful day,
    God bless you and goodbye.
