The Jarrah Forest Lodge (accommodation) is part of the Forest Heritage Centre and the mornings are greeted with the crispness of the air, and the silence is broken with the birds cheeping and the kookaburra’s laughing. It is a beautiful place to observe God’s creation and the sunrise from certain vantage points. Speaker: By the grace of God, a special welcome is extended to Pr. Dennis Kabingue, who was the Camp Speaker in 2010. Pr. Dennis is a Th.M. graduate of FEBC and also continues as a Greek Tutor at FEBC.

Message (V)God's Reward for Loving the Lord Jesus Christ in Sincerity

Evening Devotion – Thursday

"Yea, He loved the people." Deut 33:3

AND what were the people whom He loved? Poor, oppressed, rebellious, stiff-necked, hard-hearted, unworthy creatures. Just such are His people by nature now. Such are we. Yet He loves us; pities us; and distinguishes us from others around us.

He spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all; and with Him He will freely give us all things. Though He has not yet all His people with Him, yet He has Jesus sitting at His right hand, who is their Representative; the express image and exact likeness of His elect. All the rays of His love centre in Him, who is the Head of His body the Church. All the streams of delight empty themselves into Him and through Him flow down to every believer on earth.

As He loveth Jesus so He loveth us; while He loveth Jesus, He will love us; for Christ and we are one. What is done to us, is done to Him; and what is done to, or bestowed upon Him, as man and Mediator, is done to and bestowed upon us. O glorious mystery of infinite and eternal love! O direct my heart into this love of God!

O love of unexampled kind!That leaves all thought so far behind;

Where length, and breadth, and depth, and height, Are lost to my astonish'd sight:

Lord shed abroad that love of ThineIn this poor sinful heart of mine.

A daily devotional reading from THE BELIEVERS' DAILY REMEMBRANCER (also known as THE PASTOR'S MORNING VISIT) by Rev James Smith.

Morning Devotion – Good Friday

"Why are ye troubled." Lk 24:38

CONSIDER what Jesus has done for you, promised to you, and is gone to prepare for you. Consider what He is to you, your loving Bridegroom, faithful Friend, and gracious Saviour. What troubles you? Is it sin? He will pardon, subdue, and destroy it. The world? He has overcome it, redeemed you from it, and is leading you through it. Satan? He is conquered, condemned, and will soon be imprisoned.

The cares and troubles of life? Jesus says, "Bring them to Me by prayer, cast them on Me in faith, leave them with Me; I know what you want, I have provided of My goodness, I will supply all your needs; your bread shall be given you, and your water shall be sure. I will make a way in the wilderness of trouble, and a path in the desert of perplexity. Let not your hearts be trouble, ye believe in God, believe also in Me. Try Me. Trust Me. In all your ways acknowledge Me, and I will direct your paths. I have wisdom, power, and love; and all that I have is yours; to be employed for your good."

Commit thy way unto the Lord, trust also in Him, and He will bring it to pass.

Yield to the Lord, with simple heart,All that thou hast, and all thou art;

Renounce all strength, but strength divine, And peace shall be for ever thine :Behold the path the saints have trod,

The path which led them home to God.

Evening Devotion – Good Friday

"Ye are complete in Him." Col 2:10

LOOK not to much at thyself, there is nothing but vanity, weakness, sin, and misery there; but thy God hath united thee to His beloved Son. Jesus is one with thee, and all that He has is thine.

Thou art unholy, but He is made unto thee sanctification; and He will sanctify thee wholly, body, soul, and spirit. Thou art foolish, but He is made unto thee wisdom; and He will make thee wise unto salvation. Thou art weak, but He is thy strength; and thou canst do all things through His strengthening thee. Thou art unrighteous, but He is made unto thee righteousness; and thou art not only righteous, but the righteousness of God in Him. Thou art lost, but He is made unto thee redemption; He has redeemed thee from the curse of God, and from the present evil world, and He will redeem thee from death.

In thyself thou art not only incomplete, but wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked; but in Jesus thou art holy, wise, strong, righteous, rich, happy; in a word, COMPLETE. View thyself, then, at least occasionally, as COMPLETE IN CHRIST, who is the head of all principality and power.

Still onward urge your heavenly way,Dependant on Him day by day,

His presence still entreat;His precious name for ever bless,

Your glory, strength, and righteousness, In Him you are complete.

Morning Devotion – Saturday

"Lord, what is man!" Psalm 144:3 BY nature he is an enemy to God, in open rebellion against Him, and justly condemned by Him. He is in love with sin, a slave to lust, a servant of Satan. He is blind to his best interest, deaf to the call of God, and dead in trespasses and sins. He is an open sepulchre, a mass of wretchedness and disease, abominable and filthy beyond description.

And can such a creature be the object of Jehovah's love, the purchase of a Saviour's blood and the habitation of the Holy Spirit? Yes: as such, they were chosen to salvation; as such, Jesus was sent into the world to redeem them; as such, the Holy Spirit came to quicken, cleanse, justify, and save them!

O amazing grace! Astonishing mercy! And will God in very deed dwell with such creatures upon earth? Yes: "To this man will I look, and with him will I dwell, even that is poor, and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at My word." Well may the patriarch exclaim, "What is man, that Thou shouldest magnify him? and that Thou shouldest set Thine heart upon him?'

O what is feeble, dying man,Or any of his race,

That God should make it His concernTo visit him with grace!

That God, who darts His lightnings down, Who shakes the worlds above, And mountains tremble at His frown, How wondrous is His love!

Evening Devotion – Saturday

"But He answered her not a word." Mt 15:23

DELAYS are not denials. Jesus delayed to answer, but He did not deny her request. He hath said, "Ask, and it shall be given you. Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in My name, He will give it you."

Heaven and earth may pass away, but His word must stand forever. He delays the answer to try our faith, patience and perseverance; but when He sends the blessing He proves His faithfulness, pity and love. Be not discouraged though your prayers remain unanswered for a time; it will not always be so. This poor woman had to wait, though her case was very trying, and her request very urgent; but at last Jesus commended her faith publicly, and dismissed her, with, "Be it unto thee even as thou wilt."

Prayer will prevail, if it is the prayer of faith. Pray on, then, and do not faint. Say, as Jacob on the plains of Peniel, "I will not let Thee go, except Thou bless me." Plead with Him; be importunate; wait His time; be willing to receive in His own way; be concerned that He should be glorified in giving to you, or doing for you; and you cannot fail. His mercy is from everlasting to everlasting, upon them that fear Him.

Wait for His seasonable aid,And, though it tarry, wait;

The promise may be long delay'd,But cannot come too late.

Morning Devotion – Sunday

"The Lord is risen." Lk 24:34

JESUS once died for our sins, and He rose for our justification. He lay in the grave as our Substitute, He rose as our Representative. He died that we may live. He lives, and we shall live through Him, and with Him forever.

He is risen, having conquered death, reconciled us to God, perfumed the grave, and finished the work which the Father gave Him to do. As He arose, so shall we. As He is gone into heaven, thither should our thoughts, our hopes, and our affections ascend. Jesus is risen, to plead our cause; manage our affairs; fulfill His precious promises; and to prepare for us mansions in our Father's house. Sin was atoned for by His death, heaven is secured by His life. He is our risen, ascended, and reigning BROTHER. He is our conquering and crowned CAPTAIN.

O let us think of, speak for, and devote ourselves to Jesus! He is above the world; let us live above its vanities, amusements, and trammels; let us look beyond death to that glorious resurrection, when we shall be raised from the dead, and possess bodies which shall be incorruptible, glorious, powerful, and spiritual.

Jesus triumphs! sing His praise'Twas by death He overcame;Thus the Lord His glory raises;

Thus He fills His foes with shame:Sing His praise!

Praises to the Victor's name.

Message (II)Why The Lord Jesus Christ Is Worthy of Our Love

20

Evening Devotion – Sunday

"A Christian." 1 Peter 4:16

A CHRISTIAN wears the name, possesses the nature, breathes the spirit, lives the life, and devotes himself entirely to the glory of Jesus. All Christ has is his, all Christ has done was for him, and all Christ has promised he may expect.

Are you a Christian? Is the matter doubtful? Does Jesus live in you? Are you living by faith upon Him? Is He your daily bread? Do you find that you could as well live without food, as without Jesus? This is a sure evidence. This is the certain effect of the Spirit's work.

If you are a Christian, you pant, pray, and strive to be Christ-like; to bear about in your body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in your mortal body. You put off the old man which is corrupt, and put on the new man which is created in righteousness and true holiness. You would live in newness of life, as one raised from the dead; exhibiting the effects of His death in deadness to the world, love to immortal souls, bearing testimony to the truth, and looking for, and hastening to, the coming of the day of God. O to be a Christian indeed!

Father, in me reveal Thy Son,And in my inmost soul make known

How merciful Thou art:The secret of Thy love reveal,

Any by Thine hallowing Spirit dwellFor ever in my heart!


15

Morning Devotion – Monday

"God was manifest in the flesh." 1 Tim 3:16

THE manifestation of God is in the person and work of Christ, and we are herefrom to learn what our God is, and what we may expect Him to do for us.

What Jesus was to those about Him, such Jehovah is; what Jesus did and was willing to do, that our God is willing to do for us.

In Jesus we see tender love, melting compassion, and gracious forbearance; mercy and power, rectitude and pity, holiness and long-suffering, justice and

harmlessness, united. Such is our God. Fury is not in Him. Love is His name and His nature. And can you slavishly fear such a God? Can you wilfully sin against and grieve such a Being? Cannot you believe His word, depend upon His veracity, rejoice in His name, and expect from Him every promised good? For this purpose His word was written, His name is published, and Jesus died.

Always look at God in Christ; attempt not to learn God from nature. "No man hath seen God at any time; the only-begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the

Father, He hath declared Him."

"I HAVE MANIFESTED THY NAME."

Till God in human flesh I see,My thoughts no comfort find;

The holy, just, and sacred THREE,Are terrors to my mind:

But if IMMANUEL'S face appear,My soul surmounts each slavish fear.
