Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too
- 0:03Speaker 1: much because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy
- 0:07Speaker 1: for today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect
- 0:11Speaker 1: yesterday's portion of heavenly manna the word of God to
- 0:15Speaker 1: keep us through today's challenges. On this program, we are
- 0:19Speaker 1: going to change all of that. Let's experience God's words

- 1:19Speaker 2: and This is one of the ways that we continue
- 1:21Speaker 2: to build faith and fellowship. My mind just like what
- 1:24Speaker 2: click click click click click Before I pray, though, I
- 1:27Speaker 2: just want to say, like I'm preparing now for next Sabbath.
- 1:31Speaker 2: If the Lord Spaar's life to be at Campverley with you,
- 1:34Speaker 2: if you're in Jamaica and you are connecting with the
- 1:38Speaker 2: communicators in Central Jamaica Conference, I'm gonna be there and
- 1:41Speaker 2: we're going to cover this lesson in a way that
- 1:43Speaker 2: we don't cover it here in our broadcast. Okay, So
- 1:46Speaker 2: let's just go ahead and pray and then we will
- 1:49Speaker 2: get underway. Father, we do thank you for giving us
- 1:52Speaker 2: the opportunity to open up your word today. Thank you
- 1:56Speaker 2: for giving us the fullness of your Holy Spirit. Please
- 1:59Speaker 2: teach us to serve you, teach us to love you
- 2:02Speaker 2: with everything that we are. And Father, please help us
- 2:05Speaker 2: to see how the Bible is all working together under
- 2:08Speaker 2: your spirit to teach us how to live for you.
- 2:11Speaker 2: In Jesus name, I pray Amen and Amen again. I
- 2:15Speaker 2: think my brain is in gear and my brain is
- 2:17Speaker 2: in gear, Thank you God. Okay, so let's go ahead
- 2:20Speaker 2: and begin with Revelation chapter fourteen, and I will read.
- 2:25Speaker 2: I will read verse one Revelation chapter fourteen, and I
- 2:29Speaker 2: will read verse one, and the Bible reads, then I
- 2:31Speaker 2: looked and behold a lamb standing on Mount Zion. Of course,
- 2:37Speaker 2: the lamb is Jesus Christ in symbol, and with him
- 2:41Speaker 2: one hundred and forty and four thousand. I'll come back
- 2:44Speaker 2: to that having his father's name written on their foreheads.
- 2:51Speaker 2: So this morning, I'd like for you to just do
- 2:54Speaker 2: me a favor. Don't get mixed up and start focusing
- 2:57Speaker 2: on the wrong thing. The focus here is is not
- 3:01Speaker 2: the one hundred and forty four thousand, per se, But
- 3:05Speaker 2: we need to focus on the fact that they have
- 3:08Speaker 2: his father's name written on their foreheads. You know, the
- 3:13Speaker 2: Bible does teach us whether the one hundred and forty
- 3:15Speaker 2: four thousand or others who are saved, all of us
- 3:19Speaker 2: have His name written in His name written in our foreheads.
- 3:25Speaker 2: So don't get caught up on the detail there and
- 3:28Speaker 2: start having arguments about this. We need to focus on
- 3:32Speaker 2: the right thing this time. Focus on the right thing.
- 3:35Speaker 2: So what's the question. What's the question now that I've
- 3:38Speaker 2: said all of that, well, what does it mean to
- 3:40Speaker 2: have God's name written in or on our foreheads. Now,
- 3:46Speaker 2: the Bible teaches us that we are marked as his
- 3:49Speaker 2: own when His name is written on our foreheads. We're
- 3:53Speaker 2: God's people, just like in the Western culture. My wife
- 3:59Speaker 2: has my last name or my surname. She is now
- 4:03Speaker 2: Harris Knie are born or used to be our Boring.
- 4:08Speaker 2: Her maiden name was our Boing. But now that we
- 4:12Speaker 2: are married, my name is on her life and our marriage.
- 4:19Speaker 2: We represent Christ in our marriage. And so Jesus showed me,
- 4:26Speaker 2: He showed all husbands that we're to love our wives
- 4:29Speaker 2: even as Christ love the Church. So I am honored
- 4:32Speaker 2: that she would be willing to take my name. So
- 4:35Speaker 2: I need to represent Christ so she doesn't regret having
- 4:39Speaker 2: my name. You see where this is going. And so
- 4:42Speaker 2: and so we also see that God wants our mind
- 4:46Speaker 2: and character aligned. Okay, our mind and character needs to
- 4:52Speaker 2: be aligned. Why because we have the name of God
- 4:57Speaker 2: as our reward. Here it is and he chapter ten
- 5:01Speaker 2: and verse sixteen. I will put my laws into their
- 5:05Speaker 2: hearts and in their minds. I will write them, yes,
- 5:12Speaker 2: in their minds, in their hearts, that's the new covenant.
- 5:15Speaker 2: I will write them. And so when God's law of love,
- 5:19Speaker 2: God's Holy ten commandments, law of love is written in
- 5:23Speaker 2: our lives. Then we are a safe place. We're a
- 5:26Speaker 2: safe place. God has made us a safe place so
- 5:29Speaker 2: that we can have His name inscribed in our very consciousness.
- 5:34Speaker 2: God's not walking around with an inkhorn and a pen.
- 5:38Speaker 2: He's not walking around with some kind of computer generated label.
- 5:42Speaker 2: He is literally inscribing his character in our mindset. I
- 5:48Speaker 2: think the Bible says that Adam and Eve were created
- 5:50Speaker 2: in the image of God. In the image of God
- 5:53Speaker 2: created he him, male and female, created He them, and
- 5:57Speaker 2: after his likeness. You see, this is what he's doing again.
- 6:01Speaker 2: And of course the loyalty is sealed into our lives.
- 6:06Speaker 2: The Bible reads and two Timothy, chapter two and verse nineteen. However,
- 6:10Speaker 2: God's solid foundation remains standing bearing witness this seal. The
- 6:16Speaker 2: Lord knows those who are his. Do you remember that
- 6:22Speaker 2: one passover? That one passover, as God's people were being
- 6:26Speaker 2: delivered from captivity, he said that he was going to
- 6:30Speaker 2: have the death Angel come in and destroy the first
- 6:33Speaker 2: born of God's enemies. In that scenario, and he said,
- 6:37Speaker 2: anybody who goes into your homes and uses the blood
- 6:43Speaker 2: of the lamb to strike over the door post and
- 6:48Speaker 2: the lintel to be covered in that space, that tabernacle,
- 6:52Speaker 2: covered by the blood of the Lamb. Then the Angel
- 6:55Speaker 2: will pass over that place, because by faith they belie
- 7:00Speaker 2: leave in the sacrifice. Now we know it was of
- 7:03Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. They didn't understand all of the symbolism, but
- 7:06Speaker 2: they said, let me surrender my will to God and
- 7:09Speaker 2: do what he says. And God had the death Angel
- 7:13Speaker 2: pass over so that the people covered by the blood
- 7:16Speaker 2: of the Lamb were safe. They were safe. Now God
- 7:22Speaker 2: knows whose his are whose are his? Those who by
- 7:27Speaker 2: faith are covered by the blood of the Lamb will
- 7:31Speaker 2: be passed over when destruction comes, and only eternal life
- 7:36Speaker 2: in this case will come as a result. It's his
- 7:39Speaker 2: name written in your forehead, on your forehead. Revelation, chapter
- 7:44Speaker 2: seven and verse three, the Bible says, hurt not the earth.
- 7:47Speaker 2: This is the command to the angel in the last
- 7:50Speaker 2: of the last of the end of time. Hurt not
- 7:53Speaker 2: the earth, neither the sea nor the trees, till I
- 7:56Speaker 2: have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads
- 8:00Speaker 2: at the appropriate time. And we are really sitting on
- 8:04Speaker 2: top of that time where where you know he's going
- 8:07Speaker 2: to hold He's going to remove that hold of strife.
- 8:10Speaker 2: He's going to remove that restriction on the angel. And then,
- 8:14Speaker 2: you know, people who have chosen to serve the enemy
- 8:17Speaker 2: and not repent, the people who are not responsive to love,
- 8:21Speaker 2: those individuals will finally get what they desire. And the
- 8:26Speaker 2: people and the people who have chosen to serve God,
- 8:29Speaker 2: the people who are subjecting our will to God, who
- 8:33Speaker 2: say yes, thank you God for loving me and giving
- 8:35Speaker 2: me the privilege of eternal life. Thank you God, I
- 8:39Speaker 2: do respect and love you, and I will help other
- 8:42Speaker 2: people do the same. Those individuals will be sealed in
- 8:46Speaker 2: their foreheads, their consciousness. And if you go back to
- 8:50Speaker 2: Exodus chapter thirteen, I believe it is you see that
- 8:53Speaker 2: in the forehead and in the hand, God's people were marked.
- 8:58Speaker 2: I know what I just said. I hope you you
- 9:00Speaker 2: know what the Bible says. Do not get confused with
- 9:02Speaker 2: these words. They were sealed in their hands. They were
- 9:06Speaker 2: marked in their hands and their foreheads, in their consciousness.
- 9:09Speaker 2: They agreed with God. In their action, they agreed with God.
- 9:13Speaker 2: I know what I just said. Go back to the Bible.
- 9:15Speaker 2: It's right there for our learning. So we who are
- 9:19Speaker 2: God's people will ultimately have God's name all that represents God,
- 9:26Speaker 2: all that makes him holy, all that makes him so
- 9:29Speaker 2: loving and so kind, will be completely emblazoned upon our
- 9:34Speaker 2: consciousness and in all of our actions. And I thank
- 9:38Speaker 2: God that He's giving us the privilege to have that
- 9:41Speaker 2: experience beginning right now, may get a great day. Peace.
- 9:45Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening. Friends, Always remember we cannot
- 9:48Speaker 1: live by bread alone, but by every word that comes
- 9:51Speaker 1: from the mouth of God. This has been your daily
- 9:54Speaker 1: portion with el David Harris. Make it a great day. Yeah,
