In this powerful message, Pastor Rick Warren offers biblical wisdom for those facing seasons of despair, loss, or discouragement. Drawing from Scripture—particularly passages from 2 Corinthians and Psalms—he reminds listeners that even when life feels overwhelming, God is still working behind the scenes. Warren explains that hopelessness often comes from focusing on what we've lost rather than on what remains and what God can restore. He outlines practical steps to rebuild hope: Refocus on God's character — remembering His goodness, mercy, and unchanging love.Rely on God's promises — anchoring faith in His Word rather than circumstances.Reach out to others — community and prayer are key to healing and renewed strength.Refuse to give up — trusting that God's timing brings beauty out of pain. Rick Warren's message reassures believers that hope is not wishful thinking but confident expectation rooted in God's faithfulness. No matter how dark the situation, God specializes in bringing light to the hopeless. Jag, Tedi, and I thank you for tuning in!
Trust Not in Possessions: Psalm 62:11 Welcome to Daily Bitachon. Today's verse is Psalm 62:11: תבטחו בעושק ובגזל. אל תהבלו חיל. כי ינוב, אל תשיתו לב .) "Do not trust in oppression or robbery; do not have vain hope in ill-gotten gain. Though wealth flourishes, set not your heart on it." The Illusion of Material Satisfaction The verse cautions us against placing our trust in wealth acquired through unethical means ,It also warns against even having vain hope in material gain , even when that wealth seems to be flourishing . Maram Albedeila offers a deeper explanation: even when we are financially flourishing through legitimate means, that prosperity rarely brings true satisfaction. This is due to the concept of , "one who loves money," who will never be satisfied with money. The more a person acquires, the more they feel they need. This idea is captured powerfully in Midrash Rabba Kohelet 3:13: "Man does not leave this world with half his desire fulfilled. If he has 100, he wants 200. If he has 200, he wants 400." The Ba'alei Mussar emphasize this paradox: the more you have, the more lacking you feel. A person with a hundred needs two hundred; a person in the millions now needs billions. The relative gap grows larger! The True Definition of Wealth Rav Shach famously asked how this paradox reconciles with the teaching in Pirkei Avot—"Who is wealthy? The one who is happy with his lot." If everyone always wants double what they have, how can anyone truly be happy with their lot? Rav Shach offered an insightful answer: Who is the truly wealthy person? The one who has nothing. The objection is obvious: How can someone have nothing? The answer is: You do have possessions, but you understand that you don't truly own them. You grasp that everything you have is HaKadosh Baruch Hu) lending to you temporarily. Your money is no different than the bank teller receiving a temporary deposit. This perspective mirrors the teaching of the {Chovot HaLevavot in his introduction to Sha'ar HaBitachon (The Gate of Trust). This is the first message of our verse: do not rely on money, even when it flourishes. Setting Not Your Heart Upon It King David concludes by stating, " אל תשיתו לב )—"Set not your heart on it." What does this mean in a practical sense? It addresses the temptation we face when we see others—even those engaged in shady dealings, corner-cutting, or outright scams—flourishing. To that, David commands us: Do not look at their success and think, "He's getting away with it; I can do that too." Even if unethical dealings appear to succeed temporarily, that success will not last forever. Justice awaits, whether in this world or the next. Because of this eternal reality, money—no matter how powerful it seems—is not worthy of our Bitachon. For lasting security and true satisfaction in life, we can only trust in God.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. Since US President Donald Trump's whirlwind visit to the Jewish state on Monday of last week, Israel has welcomed a revolving roster of high-level officials visiting the country. This week saw the arrival of Trump’s senior Middle East advisors Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, Vice President JD Vance — and his wife Usha — and also US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. As their visits spur accusations that Israel is becoming a "client" or vassal state of the US, controversial MK Avi Maoz brought a bill that passed in a preliminary reading in the Knesset on Wednesday. The bill would apply Israeli sovereignty to all West Bank settlements despite opposition from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and most, but not all, of his Likud party. US officials quickly rebuked the annexation efforts in the Knesset, calling them "counterproductive" even as the Trump administration attempts to cement the recent ceasefire into a lasting peace deal. If the US succeeds, it wouldn't be the first time that an Israeli war was ended through US efforts. This week, Berman takes a historical look at other examples and examines the question of whether Israel is, indeed, relying on its "partner" the US to wind down its wars. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

Casey introduces the concept of the “Scaler”—an elite generalist who thrives in the chaotic, ever-changing environment of early-stage SaaS startups.

In Romans 6, we encounter a powerful message about our identity in Christ and the nature of sin. The central theme revolves around our death to sin and new life in Jesus. We learn that through baptism, we are symbolically united with Christ in His death and resurrection, enabling us to 'walk in newness of life.' This passage challenges us to see ourselves as dead to sin and alive to God, reminding us that our old self was crucified with Christ. The imagery of putting off the old nature like a dead carcass is particularly striking, urging us to embrace our new identity. As we grapple with the presence of sin in our lives, we're encouraged to remember that we're fighting a defeated foe - Satan has been disarmed, and we have the authority in Christ to resist him. This message calls us to live out our faith actively, submitting to God and resisting the devil, knowing that we have been given all things in Christ for godliness and power.### Sermon Notes#### Key Themes:1. **Sin and Grace:** - Sin, deriving from the Greek word "hamartia," means to miss the mark, as in archery when one misses the bullseye. It encompasses anything that doesn't honor God. - Everyone sins daily, often unknowingly—highlighted by the analogy of felonies in everyday actions. - Sin resides in the human body, but through Jesus, believers are delivered from their sins.2. **Romans' Structure:** - The first section of Romans addresses universal sinfulness and the need for the blood of Jesus for redemption. - The second section focuses on conversion and what Jesus has done for believers. - The third section deals with failure, redemption, and the process of sanctification.3. **The Grace Debate:** - Address's Paul's teachings on grace—often misunderstood as a license to sin. - Grace is limitless but shouldn't encourage sinning. It's meant to lead to repentance.4. **Walking in Sanctification:** - Sanctification is a lifelong process. - Believers must "walk" in faith, actively choosing righteousness over sin.5. **Overcoming Sin Nature:** - The old sinful nature is crucified with Christ; hence believers need not be slaves to it. - Emphasizing spiritual rebirth where believers share in Jesus' death and resurrection.6. **Grace and Holiness:** - Balancing grace with a call to holiness. - Holiness is aspiring to be more like God, beyond merely acknowledging imperfection.7. **The Defeated Enemy:** - Despite sin's presence, Christ's victory ensures that believers fight a defeated foe—the devil. - Jesus disarmed spiritual authorities and reclaimed dominion.#### Practical Applications:1. **Daily Walk:** - Embrace sanctification by making intentional choices that honor God. - Begin each day with a commitment to resist sin and follow Christ's teachings.2. **Mortifying the Old Self:** - Regularly reaffirm the crucifixion of your old sinful self. Confess sins, repent, and embrace the new nature in Christ. - Practicing self-discipline through spiritual activities like fasting can help assert mastery over the flesh.3. **Rely on Grace:** - Trust in God's boundless grace to cover past mistakes but be proactive about living a life that strives for holiness. - Use grace as a motivator towards repentance rather than a justification for complacency.4. **Confronting the Enemy:** - Recognize the enemy is already defeated; utilize Jesus' authority in spiritual warfare. - Engage actively in prayer, studying Scripture, and living obediently to resist satanic influences.#### Discussion Questions:1. How do you personally define sin, and how conscious are you of missing the mark in your daily life?2. In what ways have you seen grace play out in your own spiritual journey?3. Discuss the balance between grace and a call to holiness in your life. How do you strive to achieve this balance?4. What actions can you take to 'walk out' your faith more deliberately each day?5. How do you spiritually combat the "defeated foe" in your own life? What Scriptures or practices help you reclaim victory?
God is our provider. He can meet our every need. Whether it be material, tangible, or practical, or it be a talent, skill, or character trait, God can give us what we need, when we need it.

Today we had the pleasure of hosting William Clouston, Party Leader of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the United Kingdom. William has served as Party Leader since 2018 and was re-elected in March 2020. He originally joined the SDP in 1982 and spent four years in the Conservative Party, becoming a District Councilor and serving on Tynedale Council. He holds both undergraduate and master's degrees in Urban Planning and Property Management. We became interested in connecting with William after reading the SDP's Energy Abundance paper published in September (linked here). Founded in 1981, the SDP is an economically left leaning and culturally traditional political party. Its flagship “Social Market” economic model views the private and public sectors not as opponents but as complementary parts of the same society. We were delighted to connect with William for an insightful discussion on the UK and Europe's energy policies and beyond. We covered a wide range of topics in our conversation, beginning with the purpose and motivation for writing Energy Abundance, including Britain's current energy crisis, marked by too little power, high costs, and overreliance on imports. William shares the history of the government's role in energy policy and the SDP's argument for a return to government-led energy development, starting with building gas and coal plants. He discusses reactions to the paper, the urgency of rebuilding domestic energy capacity, and the importance of distinguishing cost and value when considering investing $150 billion in grid stabilization and baseload generation. We compare the UK's energy landscape to Germany and the U.S., the risk of further productivity decline if energy issues persist, and public awareness of the energy crisis, which remains politically constrained by cultural and institutional apathy. We explore the SDP's economic and political philosophy, including the party's support for strategic trade protection and tariffs and its cultural traditionalism, emphasizing family as the foundation of society, nation-states, borders, and conventional values. We touch on how energy debates are often constrained by social norms, particularly around net zero, the SDP's 10-year energy plan proposing a state-run, vertically integrated utility, the UK's historical “dash for gas” and current overreliance on renewables, and the party's support for large-scale nuclear, favoring its “brute force” capacity and proven designs. We ended by asking William for his vision of the UK in ten years. We learned a lot and greatly appreciate William for sharing his deep knowledge of British politics, policies, and culture with us all. To start the show, Mike Bradley noted that the S&P 500 is up ~2% this week on better than expected quarterly results from the Big US Banks. AI & Electricity mania remain “the” key equity market drivers, which has also pushed the Consumer Discretionary, Technology & Utilities sectors higher this week. On the crude oil market front, WTI has sunk to ~$59/bbl, partly on the Gaza Peace Agreement but mainly due to growing concern with the 2026 global oil supply surplus. Both the IEA and OPEC published their monthly oil outlooks, with the IEA projecting a ~4mmbpd 2026 surplus, which is ridiculously higher than all other estimates. The reason oil prices seem to be moving lower this week (versus previous weeks) is because oil traders are pressing their bearish bets now that crude oil prices have finally broken to the downside. On the energy equity front, one of this week's biggest Energy/Electricity equity movers is Bloom Energy (up ~30%) on news Brookfield struck a $5B strategic partnership with Bloom to be their preferred fuel cell supplier at Brookfield's global AI factories. Q3 Energy results kick off this week with most investors expecting to hear a softening frac story but a scaling up of their power business. Most investors

Chris Versace says the government shutdown is putting a "crimp" on the volume of data investors and traders typically rely on for economic performance. He says the ISM reports are a "treasure trove" and believes investors need to be more fluid when it comes to triangulating data sources.

Chris adds commentary on the latest retail shopping events competing between Walmart (WMT), Target (TGT) and Amazon (AMZN).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Hire Yourself Podcast with Pete GilfillanThe cheese has moved—and executives are finally noticing.In this episode, Pete Gilfillan breaks down why more senior-level leaders are leaving the “security” of corporate life to become entrepreneurs. Inspired by Who Moved My Cheese? and backed by recent articles from CNBC, Forbes, and WSJ, Pete outlines eight reasons why it's time to get your sneakers on and start building your own future—before someone else moves your cheese for good.In this episode, Pete discusses:1. Corporate Loyalty Is Gone Layoffs, restructuring, and AI are cutting deep—even at the executive level. The old model of job security no longer exists.2. Ownership Means Financial Control Forget 3% raises and capped bonuses. As a business owner, you decide how much you earn—and how fast you grow.3. Flexible Lifestyle on Your Terms Entrepreneurship gives you the freedom to work hard your way—without missing family moments or being chained to meetings.4. Leverage Your Experience to Build Equity Your leadership skills aren't wasted—they're your biggest asset. Use them to run a business that actually builds wealth.5. Escape Ageism and Career Plateaus In corporate, your age can hold you back. In business, your experience is an advantage. You decide when to retire—not HR.Key Takeaways:Corporate comfort feels safe—but it isn't.Executives are replaceable. Owners aren't.Franchising gives you a proven model, structure, and support.Your experience has more value when it's used for yourself.Waiting too long puts your income and future at risk.“The corporate world isn't what it used to be. The freedom, control, and security you're looking for—it's on the other side of entrepreneurship.” — Pete GilfillanCONNECT WITH PETE GILFILLAN:

Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. Your commitment is helping deliver God's Word with clarity and conviction. This one's for you. Our text today is Judges 7:1–3. Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him rose early and encamped beside the spring of Harod. And the camp of Midian was north of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley. The LORD said to Gideon, "The people with you are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel boast over me, saying, 'My own hand has saved me.' Now therefore proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, 'Whoever is fearful and trembling, let him return home and hurry away from Mount Gilead.'" Then 22,000 of the people returned, and 10,000 remained. — Judges 7:1-3 So the Israelite army wakes up early, camped at the spring of Harod. Just across the valley, Midian's massive force waits. Every soldier counts — at least, that's what Gideon must have thought. But God sees the situation differently than Gideon does. He tells Gideon, "You have too many men." Too many? Against an army so large it can't be counted? Yes. God knows the danger isn't the size of the enemy — it's the pride in Israel's heart. If they win with a big enough army, they'll think they did it themselves. So God orders a cut. Anyone who is afraid can leave. And just like that, 22,000 soldiers pack up and head home. Gideon is left with less than a third of what he started with. The odds just got worse — and exactly how God wanted them. God will sometimes strip away the resources, people, or security you thought you needed — not to punish you, but to purify your faith. When he reduces what you rely on, it's because he wants you to rely on him. It is uncomfortable. It feels unsafe. But if our confidence rests in our numbers, connections, or abilities, then our faith isn't in God — it's in ourselves. So has God been reducing your resources lately? When God reduces our resources, he is often removing our false sense of control that we've been clinging to. Sometimes we don't even know we are clinging to it, so we resist the reduction. But fewer options force deeper faith. Less human advantage means more room for divine intervention. The question is, when God starts reducing your "resources," will you see it as a setback… or as the setup for him to show his power? ASK THIS: Where has God been cutting back your resources or support lately? How could that reduction be preparing you to trust Him more? What false securities might He be removing from your life? Are you willing to face a harder battle if it means God gets the glory? DO THIS: Identify one area where you've been depending on your own strength. Release it to God today and pray for faith to trust him with the outcome. PRAY THIS: Father, when You take away what I think I need, help me see it as Your way of drawing me closer to You. Strip away my pride and replace it with deeper trust in Your power. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Strip It All Away."
I once heard a story that I would like to share with you and then I would like to follow it up with a question. A man is on death row for murder, the day of his execution has come, and you have been invited to spend 30 minutes with the man. You ask the man if he is guilty; his answer seems sincere and heartfelt: It was years ago when I committed that crime, but it is true that I am guilty of murder. He continues to explain how year after year he and his lawyers have tried to appeal his death sentence, but all his appeals have failed. Now his only hope is the small chance his lawyers may be able to get the court, or even the governor, to agree to a stay of execution. Just before your 30 minutes are up the man learns that there will be no stay of execution and within the next hour, he will die by lethal injection. You decide to stay to see if by some chance a reprieve might be granted. The time of execution arrives, and the man is ushered to the room where he will be executed. He passes by as you watch, and through his loud sobs, you hear the man repeat, I am so sorry, I am so sorry! I am so sorry! My question for you is this: Is the man sorry that he took the life of another human, or is he sorry that he will never be able to murder again? The account of the first family provides valuable insight into what genuine love for God and true worship look like. Following their disobedience in the garden, God gave Adam and Eve a promise: a Descendanta seed who would come to defeat and destroy the deceiver who had led them astray. Their reaction to Gods promise in the midst of their failure becomes a powerful example of repentance and worship. To truly grasp what led Cain to kill his brother, we must first consider how Adam and Eve responded to Gods assurance and what it reveals about the heart of repentance and worship. Before Adam and Eves sin, they were commanded to fill the earth with children and not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The two trees in the center of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Every day that Adam and his wife passed by those trees, they were given the option to choose life and blessing by eating from the tree of life, or to choose death and cursing by disobeying God by eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. As you know, they chose death and cursing. After God found them, His promise of good news to the couple was that One would come through their decedents who would crush the serpent. Their response to their sin and Gods promise is found in Genesis 3:20 - 4:1, and it was beautiful! Adam named his wife Eve which means mother of all the living. Gods response after Adam named his wife was to cover them with animal skins, which means that God shed the blood of an animal to cover their shame. God then sent them out of the Garden which was the consequence of their sin and the new reality of the curse they would now live under. Then, even after they were no longer permitted to live in the garden, Adam and Eve responded in faith to the promise of God by finally choosing to have children with the birth of Cain and then Abel; when she gave birth to Cain, Eve said, I have obtained a male child with the help of the Lord. The expectation Adam and Eve had for their son Cain was one of hope, filled with dreams that they also shared for Abel. When it came to the worship of Yahweh, Cain brought a portion from his labors from the ground while Abel brought the firstborn of his flock and of their fat portions in worship to the Lord. What this tells us is that Adam and Eve shared the stories of their God with their two sons; they also instructed them in the way they were to worship God out of thanksgiving and reverence that all that they had was from the Lord. Both Adam and Eve understood that the Deliverer promised to them would either be one of their sons or one who would come by way of the sons of their children. Although Cain and Abel grew up in the same household, raised by the same parents, and taught the same values, their lives and choices could not have been more different. Cain chose to work the soil as a farmer, while Abel became a shepherd, tending flocks (4:2). There was nothing wrong with Cains occupation, nor was his offering itself unacceptable. The real issue lay in the condition of Cains heartspiritually, his attitude and motivation before God was deeply flawed. Worship is More than What You Do The offering that Cain and Abel brought to the Lord was their way of thanking God; it was their way of worshiping Him for all the good that He brought into their lives through their respective occupations. Cain was a farmer, so he brought the produce of His work to God not because God needed it, but as a way of worshiping Him. Abel was a shepherd, so he brought a portion of his labor before the Lord as an offering. In verse three we are told that Cain brought his offering, In the course of time.. which is probably a reference to the end of the agricultural season. So, this was not the first time Cain or Abel worshiped God through their respective offerings. Abels offering was that of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat portions. The reason for the detail here is that Abels offering was thought out, carefully prepared, and the best of what he had to offer God, while Cains offering was not. The point is that Cain came to God on his own terms, while Abel came to God on Gods terms. Cains offering was motivated out of obligation and duty, while Abels was motivated by reverence and love. We know Abels offering was motivated by his love and reverence of God for two reasons: First, according to verse 5, but for Cain and his offering He had no regard. So Cain was very angry and his face was gloomy. The second reason is found in Hebrews 11:4, By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he was attested to be righteous, God testifying about his gifts, and through faith, though he is dead, he still speaks. What I find amazing about this story is that God did not ridicule Cain for his half-hearted worship, but instead instructed him as to how his offering could be accepted just like his brothers was: If you do well, will your face not be cheerful? And if you do not do well, sin is lurking at the door; and its desire is for you, but you must master it (v. 7). Worship is a Matter of the Heart Abel worshiped God as one who understood who he himself was in light of who God is (Abel was poor in spirit), he understood that his only righteousness was to be found in God (he mourned over his sins), and his offering came out of a spirit of humility before God (Abel was meek). For Abel, worship was not a duty, but a delight. Cains response to Gods favor for Abel over himself reveals everything we need to know about the man. He first responded in anger (Cain believed what he had was enough), Cain did not listen to God (he did not see his sin for what it was), he was jealous of his brothers relationship with God (Cains pride was wounded). Instead of repenting, Cain chose to murder his brother instead! Cain had the opportunity to respond to God's displeasure with genuine repentance and humility, seeking forgiveness. Rather than mastering his sin, Cain allowed it to dominate him, channeling his rage into a tragic act: Cain talked to his brother Abel; and it happened that when they were in the field Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him (v. 8). The beast that God warned Cain about was not sitting at the door of his heart, it was lurking within his heart! Faced with a choice between life and death, Cain chose death by taking his brother's life. The profound tragedy of Cain's actions lies in his motivationhe killed Abel not only out of anger, but because Abel's devotion reminded him of the holiness of God. While Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit in their desire to be like God, Cain murdered out of spite, resenting his brother's sincere worship of God. After Cain murdered his brother, God did not wait for Cain to confess; rather, He confronted Cain directly, asking, Where is Abel your brother? Cains reply, I do not know. Am I my brothers keeper? (v. 9), which reveals not just his guilt, but also his attempt to deceive God. Cain committed not only the act of murder but compounded his sin by lying to God. Despite having witnessed his parents experienceknowing that nothing can be hidden from GodCains response illustrates the irrationality of sin. He wrongly assumed his actions could be concealed from God and tried to cover them up with dishonesty. Where Adam shifted blame for his own wrongdoing, Cain chose to respond with outright deceit. Cains calloused answer to God regarding his brother is deafening. Yet the Lord approached Cain anyway: What have you done? The voice of your brothers blood is crying to me from the ground. And now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brothers blood from your hand. When you work the ground, it shall no longer yield to you its strength. You shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth (vv. 10-12). What Cain failed to consider was that although dirt covered the corpse of his murdered brother, the blood of Abel screamed for justice, and that is what God gave Cain. As is often the case with sin, Cains actions had lasting consequences on his relationships. Once able to nurture life from the soil, Cain now found the earth to be hostile toward him. Overwhelmed by the severity of his punishment, Cain lamented, My punishment is more than I can bear. Today you have driven me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me may kill me (vv. 13-14). What amazes me most about this story is that, even after Cain murdered his brother and responded to God with callousness and deceit, God still heard Cains desperate plea for mercy. Instead of abandoning him, God responded with unexpected grace: Then the LORD said to him, Not so! If anyone kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD put a mark on Cain, lest any who found him should attack him. Then Cain went away from the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden (vv. 15-16). Ever since Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, humanity's condition has not improved but has only deteriorated. The serpent tricked Adam and Eve into thinking they could be like God, but Cain escalated the rebellion by taking a lifesomething only God has the authority overwhen he murdered his brother. Just a few generations later, human wickedness intensified. By the time we come to Genesis 6, we see that the sin of Adam and Eve had infected every generation, spreading like a disease until Scripture declares, The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually (Gen. 6:5). Application I can hardly fathom the grief and devastation Adam and Eve felt upon discovering that their firstborn son had taken the life of his brother Abel. With Cain under judgment and Abel gone, Adam and Eve were left childless, and the promise God made to them in the Garden must have seemed shattered and out of reach. Although Adam and Eves sin resulted in a curse, they ultimately experienced redemption, forgiveness, and the hope of salvation. In contrast, Cain was condemned to wander the earth under a curse, and his life was irrevocably changed. From Cains story, much like Adam and Eves, we discover that sin always comes at a high priceit never fulfills its promises, it destroys peace, brings shame, and robs the sinner of true joy. When darkness seemed to overwhelm and hope appeared lost under the weight of the curse, Adam and Eve conceived again and bore a third son and gave him the name Seth which means appointed. This time, Eves words reflected a shift in perspective: rather than saying she had a child with the help of the Lord, she instead said: God has appointed me another child in place of Abel, because Cain killed him (v. 25). With Seths birth, Scripture notes that people began to call upon the name of the Lord (v. 26). As S.A. Sacks observed, Hope rises like a phoenix from the ashes of shattered dreams. From the brokenness of the first family, God brought forth hope once morespecifically, through Seth and the enduring promise of a Deliverer. The slaughter of Abel as an innocent representation of the God he served was a foreshadowing of the One who would come through the bloodline of Abels younger brother, Seth. Listen to Hebrews 12:24, and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood, which speaks better than the blood of Abel. Abels shed blood screams for vengeance, while the innocent shed blood of Jesus screams forgiveness and complete atonement. Abels blood screams: Judgment! Jesus blood screams: Salvation! When Abels blood was shed, it stained the ground, because of Jesus blood being shed, our sin can be washed away so that we can be made righteous. When it comes to sin and temptation, the Bible says: But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it has run its course, brings forth death (Jas. 1:14-15). How does one master sin? The story of Cain provides us with three principles that will help us fight against our own sin in a way that Cain failed to do: Recognize that victory over sin begins in your mind. The battle against sin is first foughtand wonwithin your mind. Fill your thoughts with Gods Word to build a strong line of defense (2 Cor. 10:4-6). Remember, you are never trapped by your sin where there is no escape from it; God always provides a way out. Just as He offered Cain an escape, God offers you one toodont cling to the temptation by lingering before it. (1 Cor. 10:13). Run to Jesus, your Deliverer. When temptation strikes, turn immediately to Jesus. Fill your mind with His words, seek His redemption instead of dwelling in the shame of your failure (Heb. 12:1-2) Rely on the Holy Spirits strengthnot your ownto overcome sin. Because Jesus defeated sin and death, you can experience genuine freedom. He has given you the Holy Spirit to equip and empower you to live a victorious life in Him (Eph. 6:10-11). Before you this day are two trees. One is a tree that provides life, and it is the Cross of Christ. The other tree is one of death and cursing; it is the tree Cain chose. People who see you may not know what is going on in your heart and mind, but God sees it all! My appeal to you is to choose life by running to Jesus.
Response: Repent And Rely
Because of the government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics will not release its monthly unemployment and jobs survey today. But that's probably not a big deal to President Donald Trump, who has apparently decided that the best statistics are the ones that either say what he wants to hear, or are simply never heard at all. The most expensive extreme weather events, which facilities are creating the most pollution, quarterly reports, incidents of domestic terrorism, the number of people who need food assistance…these are all statistics Americans need to know. And these are all forms of data under attack by the Trump administration. And this started long before the shutdown. America has been a world leader at collecting data on everything from the number of bison living in Plains states to the divorce rate – but our data supremacy might be coming to an end. And that's really, really bad, for reasons we might not even know yet. So to find out more about the stats we're losing, and what else we're losing in the process, we spoke to Denice Ross. She's a senior fellow at the Federation of American Scientists and former U.S. Chief Data Scientist for the Biden administration.And in headlines, President Donald Trump determines the US is in an “armed conflict” with drug cartels, the Trump administration punishes a slew of blue states by cancelling nearly $8-billion in grants for their clean energy projects, and the lastest update in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
