Listen to us share this message on your audio player. "Covenant Keepers" "With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist him" (Daniel 11:32). From the time of the successful corruption of Adam and Eve the enemy has sought to continue the corruption in each of their descendants.  And from the very beginning flattery has been one of the effective tools in Satan's diabolical arsenal.  In the Garden Satan appealed to their pride declaring that, "You will be like God." Today the great spiritual war rages on and as I prepare this message I consider this cosmic struggle underlying all that we may read about or see with our eyes. Daniel faithfully served God about 2,500 years ago. The latter portion of his book is a series of prophetic messages dealing with events that stretch from his time through the various historically verifiable world empires to the present and beyond. It can be a tough read requiring much concentration. Today's verse is power-packed. The flattering "he" in the daily text is a king who "will corrupt those who have violated the covenant."  Although the specific "he" in the text may not be Satan, surely it represents his ongoing attempt to corrupt God's kingdom.  Any violation of a covenant results in further corruption if there is no repentance offered.  But the focus of this daily encouragement is the latter part of the text, which has such an application for all times. "But the people who know their God."  In every generation God has called out a people who know Him.  Oh, how I cry out today to know God!  Not in a static sense, not through other's experiences, but through a deepening of my understanding and through a more fully surrendered heart. The apostle Paul wrote many years after his conversion experience when he initially came to know Christ, "I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in His sufferings, becoming like Him in His death"   (Philippians 3:10).  This surely speaks of an ongoing aspiration to know God in a greater and deeper way.   When we walk in the resurrection power that comes from Christ we will overcome the sufferings that also come to the believer as we share in His sufferings.  Too often we want the resurrection power, but resist the suffering that comes to those who identify with Christ in His death. "Will firmly resist him."  This growing knowledge of God will equip us as His people to unyieldingly resist the ploys of Satan.  It is so easy to be deceived and led astray if we are not aware of Satan's tactics.  We can learn about them since they are revealed all throughout the Scriptures.  In my heart I have such a deep sense of the urgency of this warning and remind our readers to "be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.  Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings" (1 Peter 5:9). Fellow follower of Christ, today let us pursue a growing knowledge of God as we surrender ourselves fully to His control, and let us firmly resist the enemy of our souls. Let us determine that we will keep our covenant with God. Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Daily prayer: Father, deep within our soul there is a yearning to know You more, to identify with You in Your power, and even in Your suffering, and also in Your victory over Satan.  What a powerful example You give us when Jesus was tempted in the desert for 40 days and 40 nights.  Satan had a plot, but You had a plan to refute every scheme he laid out when Jesus responded with Scripture.  Scripture that was spoken and recorded long before the wilderness battle ensued.  Help us to be like-minded, to learn and embrace the Scriptures, so that we will do battle with the enemy not by our might or strength that might actually be weakened in the midst of the battle, but in the powerful strength that comes through the inspiration of Your Holy Word meant for all time.  In Jesus' name we pray.  Amen. Berry Picking! Yesterday we went berry picking. Along the back edge of our church property there is an abundance of black raspberries that I've been watching as they slowly ripened. Some berries were easy to get to right along the edge and easy to pick, but the most plump and densely inhabited raspberries were deep into the patch, requiring considerable effort to pick. Briars and thorn-covered branches taller than Brooksyne abounded, but as she picked she showed me a handful of the delectable juicy berries. Roxie came along to warn us of any possible snakes that might make be hiding under the thick weed filled bedding of the berry plantings. Here's a photo of Brooksyne working deep in the berry patch getting the best berries and below is a handfull of reward! We had fresh berries on home-made ice cream last night.  This morning all three of us enjoyed black raspberry jam on our buttered toast.  Thanks to a generous friend who gave us 12 quarts in addition to our own picking Brooksyne canned over 22 cups of jams and jellies.  It's more than we need for ourselves, but she enjoys making extra to give away. Besides making jars of jam (which includes the pulp of berries), Brooksyne also made a batch of jelly where the pulp is separated and only the juice is used, as seen above with the pulp in the cheesecloth and the juice extracted for the jelly in the large bowl. With jelly you don't have seeds getting caught in your teeth, but then you don't get the full berry either. Today's Suggested Music and Supplemental Resources Click on the link to open and play.

Daily Encouragement (06/29/09) "Rich Reward For The Faithful"

A daily, Bible-based perspective of hope, encouragement and exhortation. Home   ·   About Us   ·   ·  Podcast  ·  Free email See here for more info. <Previous Messages    ·    Archives    ·    Archive/print edition Monday, June 29, 2009 Willows along Donegal Creek Click on photo to view a larger version with Scripture verse. Listen to us share this message on your audio player. "Rich Reward For The Faithful" "Help, Lord, for the godly man ceases to be. For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men" (Psalm 12:1). "So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.  You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised" (Hebrews 10:35,36). David expresses himself in our daily text in a way that we might also in our own day.  His cry for help is directed to the Lord.  His observation is that the "godly man ceases to be".  David grew up during a time of great moral and spiritual apostasy.  Certainly Saul's reign was not marked by spiritual revival or consistent obedience to God. It transitioned from the period of the Judges, which is summed up with the phrase "Each man did what was right in his own eyes."  However there was a remnant of God's faithful followers during this period such as the prophet Samuel. Thank God for those who remain faithful followers of Jesus Christ in our own day. Faithful ministers who preach God's Word in an uncompromising manner, dedicated lay persons who live out their faith before an oft-scorning world, married couples who take their marital covenant seriously, parents who raise their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord and church communities that continue to "forsake not the assembling together." Today's verse is a great truth for all readers to memorize. We all deal with different temptations and issues in life as we seek to remain faithful to Christ.  The believers addressed in Hebrews were facing persecution and were tempted to go back to their old way of life.  Perhaps part of the temptation was that in doing so their persecutions might ease. There are many believers today under similar circumstances. But going back to the old way of life remains a temptation in varying degrees for all believers, although for different reasons.  For many readers it may be the busyness of life, affluence, the persistent barrage of godless, secular teaching and other issues we confront daily that lull us into complacency or pull us back into the world.  One that I have noticed is the heavy load that people bear as they overcome the consequences of many years of disobedience to God.  It may be tobacco, drug or alcohol use, sexual immorality or indebtedness due to wasteful spending.  Turning to Christ does not immediately negate the long-term consequences of these past sins.  Though some receive miraculous deliverance, there are those who will endure weaknesses and temptations that require diligent prayer and daily overcoming. The enemy of our soul may persistently murmur, "What's the use?" and tempt us to just throw away our confidence and simply give up.  Sadly, I know some who have done just that.  A major theme throughout Hebrews is, "Let us hold firmly to the faith we profess."  The word translated "hold firmly" is in the present active and conveys the ongoing need to actively participate in this "holding on" to our faith. But note the great promise in the daily text.  I have been blessed by it often and committed it to memory: "So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded."  Any earthly rewards pale in comparison to the eternal rewards our heavenly Father bestows on the faithful believer.   May the Lord's present and future promises strengthen your faith today and fill you with anticipation for the future when you will be "richly rewarded." Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Daily Prayer: Father, You lead us through the valleys and mountain top experiences of everyday life.  Your ways are far superior to the path we might choose when guided by our own limited wisdom.  We're so grateful for the strength and encouragement we receive from our brothers and sisters who bear our burdens and share in our joys.  When considering the choice of walking faithfully with you or turning to our old way of life, we join with Simon Peter who weighed the options and declared, "Lord, to whom shall we go?  You have the words of eternal life.  We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God." (John 6:68,69). Today's Suggested Music and Supplemental Resources Click on the link to open and play. (In some cases you may also need to click again to start the song.)

Daily Encouragement (06/26/09) "Grace upon Grace"

A daily, Bible-based perspective of hope, encouragement and exhortation. Home   ·   About Us   ·   ·  Podcast  ·  Free email See here for more info. <Previous Messages    ·    Archives    ·    Archive/print edition Friday, June 26, 2009 "Like a mighty sea, like a mighty sea. Comes the love of Jesus sweeping over me!" Listen to us share this message on your audio player. "Grace upon Grace" "For of His fullness we have all received, and grace upon grace" (John 1:16).   Yesterday I was sitting on a bench with Brooksyne looking out over the ocean at Ocean City, NJ.  I glanced at her and took note of her quiet but pleasant expression and asked, "What is it that you like about the ocean?"  She responded quickly, "It's so much bigger than man.  People can take no credit for its vastness, for the way the waves just keep on coming to shore. It's one of the great wonders of creation." Growing up in the Midwest I rarely saw the ocean as a child; only two times.  Brooksyne didn't see it at all till after we were married so we especially enjoy spending time at the shore.  We have walked nearly fifteen miles the last several days along the shore, mostly on boardwalks. Yesterday we walked the Ocean City boardwalk and enjoyed seeing scores of young families, seniors, middle-aged, and young people all enjoying the warm sunshine.  There is such a great variety of food stands, beachwear, and amusement park rides.  But far more interesting than all of these man made boardwalk attractions is the mighty ocean. I've long associated the daily verse with the ocean due to a sermon I heard as a young Christian.  Jeff Ronald was a fellow Bible School student who was preaching from John 1 and used the persistent, rolling waves of the ocean as an illustration of the phrase "grace upon grace." John wrote his gospel late in the first century.  Most believe his writings were the last in the Biblical canon.  Some sixty years after his encounter with Christ and His earthly ministry he sits down as an old man to write his record.  Three other accounts had already been written (Matthew, Mark and Luke) but surely John's perspective in writing was long awaited by the early church.  His purpose in writing is clearly stated in Chapter 20:30 & 31.  "Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not recorded in this book.  But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name."  Thus his intent was in part evangelistic; hopeful that unbelievers would receive his account and respond in belief. The daily text begins with the phrase, "For of His fullness we have all received." What an incredible blessing to be a recipient of His fullness! The last phrase is "grace upon grace." The Amplified expresses, "one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favor upon favor and gift heaped upon gift."  What a marvelous blessing grace is; this unmerited favor and undeserved gift.  In understanding grace many have found helpful the descriptive acrostic "God's Riches At Christ's Expense" or "Gifts Received At Christ's Expense."  Do you believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God?  By believing you may have life in His Name.  That's the greatest gift of grace! Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Daily prayer: God, You've given the greatest treasure that is available to all people.  We don't have to fit into a particular segment of our population nor are we required to live during a certain time period to receive this unsurpassed gift.  The gift of Your grace is available to every generation and exceeds any temporary material blessing that we'll ever receive. Your grace not only brings reconciliation through Your Son, but it continues to pour into us grace upon grace, much like the waves of the ocean.   Thank you that You gave in abundance so that we could be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God through the incarnation of your Son, Jesus Christ.   How unlimited and ceaseless is your grace upon grace! Ocean City is a very family-oriented area, a marked contrast to Atlantic City, which is just ten miles away. Brooksyne always checks out the decorative planters when we travel to popular vacation sites.  This year the planters at Ocean City are filled with colorful Wave Petunias. They're huge and surely thrive with the ocean air. Just about every home and condominium that border the oceanfront are accessorized with beautiful and heavily blooming hydrangeas.  We didn't get photos but sure enjoyed the views as we walked along the sidewalks. After a rather dreary week it was beautiful yesterday and this is what the beach looked like mile after mile.  An otherwise bland sandy beach was decorated with multi-colored umbrellas and beach towels as sunlovers and swimmers took advantage of a perfectly warm sunny day!   Today's Suggested Music and Supplemental Resources Click on the link to open and play.
