  Speaker 1: much because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: for today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect

  Speaker 2: and fellowship. Let's go ahead and pray, and then we
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: will get underway. Father, we do thank you for this
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: day and forgetting us thus far in our work week.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: We're on day number two. God, thank you for the
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: ability to do whatever it is that we've been called
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: to do. Please pass over our lives with those things
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: that are meant only for people who don't love you.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen and Amen again Passover Passover.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Type in the chat what the passover means to you?
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: What does the passover mean to you? If anything? And
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: if if nothing, or you don't understand, and type a
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: question mark like what what does the passover mean to you?
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: What the passover means to me, without even going into
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: the historic call context, is that when God is protecting me,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: I said to me, so I asked you for you
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: for me. When God is protecting me from the things
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: that happened to his enemy, I am protected by virtue
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. What qualifies me to
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: be covered, to be hidden from to be in God
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: in Christ as a refuge in the time of trouble
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: is the fact that Jesus Christ gave his life for me,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: and not only that, he gave his life for me.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: And then as he went to sleep in the tomb
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: until the sabbath was finished, and he rose again took
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: up his life. On that Sunday morning. He then entered
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: into the heavenly sanctuary. And for however many years he's
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: been there. Since then he has been functioning as our
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: great high priest. Yes, there was a time before eighteen
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: forty four where was all about forgiveness, all about forgiveness,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: and now we are in the phase where it is
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: about all about cleansing, all about cleansing and reuniting us
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: with God in the fullest sense. And so when God
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: passes over us with the calamities that are judgments against
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: people who don't love Him, it is because we are
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: adopted as his children in the beloved Jesus Christ. I'm grateful,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: I am grateful, and so and so. In this lesson
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: we go back to the Bible book of Joshua and
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: we learn a few a few lessons, a few lessons.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: But our first lesson is coming in from Exodus chapter twelve.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I took you on a wild goose chain. My bad.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: We're talking about Joshua. But We're going back to Exodus,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: chapter twelve and verse six, and the Bible reads, and
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: ye shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: same month, and the whole assembly of the Congregation of
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Israel shall kill it in the evening, kill it in
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: the evening. Of course, we are, you know, really jumping
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: into the middle of the story. But the concept is
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: to remember before we advanced. So God's people stood on
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: the threshold of battle. Jerich Cole's walls loomed large, and
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: the danger was near. Yet before engaging the enemy, Joshua
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: led the people to celebrate passover. We went back to
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: the book of Exodus, and it was an intentional act
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: of remembrance. Before conquering new territory, they paused to remember
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: who had delivered them from bondage when the first born
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: of all in Egypt had to go. And God had
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: told the people to sprink to to to spread the
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: blood over the door posting on the lintel, and for
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: those who would come into the home that was covered
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: by the blood in the way that God had prescribed,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the Angel of Death would pass over instead of passing through.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: And so this was a way for God's people to
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: commemorate the deliverance. The Passover wasn't simply a ritual. It
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: was a declaration that victory comes through redemption. Our true
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: read our true victory comes through the redemption. That is,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: God paid the debt through Christ. He paid the debt
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: ah to to that we that we had to die
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: the second death because of our sin, so that we
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: could live eternal life. With eternal life. The same God
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: who brought them out of Egypt would lead them into Canaan.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: When we face battle in life in twenty twenty five,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: in the month of November and beyond. The first step
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: is not to fight harder, not to just grind brothers
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: and sisters, but to remember deeper, more deeply, Remember the Cross,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Remember what Jesus did all the way back on Calvary.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Remember the covenant that God has made with his people
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: and kept through Christ for his people and the faithfulness
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: of God. And so the action step, apart from all
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: the remembrance that I shared with you, is before tackling
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: your next challenge. I think I've said this to you before,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: but now we spin it a little bit so we
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: can get a different perspective. We need a different facet
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: when we look at it from a different light. We say,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: before tackling your next challenge, stop and thank God for
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: your past, for his deliverance of you in the past.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: And then we can say gratitude precedes victory. I want
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: you to spy on God when you pray and when
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: you are asking God for something. I want you to
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: mark the time when you started to ask God for
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: whatever it was, and then when God gives you an answer,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: whether it's yes or no. But when God gives you
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: his answer that will glorify him and will satisfy you.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: M it will glorify him and will satisfy you. Once
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: He has done that, then in reality, I want you
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: to be the first to give thanks. I want you
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: to be spying. Is this it? He said? He said, yes, Okay, God,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: thank you. I thank you for answering my prayer. Is
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: this it? Is this it? Oh? He said? No, God,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: I thank you. I thank you for saying no, because
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: you know what best serves your calling on my life.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: So thank you. Gratitude precedes victory. The second lesson is
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: is lamb. The lamb comes before the land. The Lamb
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: comes before the land. You weren't expecting that. In First
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Corinthians chapter five and verse seven, the Bible reads, for
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: even Christ, our passover is sacrificed for us. You see,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: the people of God's celebration of passover in enemy territory
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: symbolized their faith in the same blood that saved them
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: in Egypt, that would secure them in Canaan. All of
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: those years later, I can hear the song the blood
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: that Jesus shed for me way back on Calvary, The
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: blood that gives me strength from day today shall never
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: lose its power. The Passover always pointed to the lamb
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: of God, Jesus Christ, who frees his people from bondage
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: to sin at what we call the Last Supper. We
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: would probably not necessarily call it that. We would say
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: in our case it would be the Communion now, huh, Well,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: whatever you call it, Jesus transformed the Passover into a
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: memorial of his sacrifice. Every time we reflect on the Cross,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: we spiritually renew our covenant with the one who conquered death.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Our greatest victories flow from his special work, and so
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: the action step is to keep the cross in view,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: keep God's cross in view, and then yield your will
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: when he shows you the way. Peace.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening, friends, always remember we cannot
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: live by bread alone, but by every word that comes
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: from the mouth of God. This has been your daily
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: portion with El David Harris. Make it a great day. Yeah,
