Transcript
- 0:01Most of us eat every day, some of us too much because yesterday's food
- 0:06is not enough to supply energy for today's needs. Why then, do some
- 0:10of us expect yesterday's portion of heavenly manna, the word of God to keep
- 0:15us through today's challenges. On this program, we are going to change all
- 0:20of that. Let's experience God's words today and receive the power we need to
- 0:25live healthy, vibrant lives. Welcome to your Daily Portion with your host,

- 1:10community. Also pick up your Daily Portion book and let us know where you
- 1:14are in the world at your Daily Portion dot com. Let's go ahead and
- 1:18pray and get underway. Father in Heaven, thank you for giving us this
- 1:23new day and for the privilege that we have to celebrate together the word that
- 1:27you have manifest through Jesus Christ. I'm asking you now to give us your
- 1:32understanding, give us your mindset, give us holiness in Jesus name. I
- 1:37pray, Amen and Amen again. The Three Angels Messages and mission. I'm
- 1:44not going to fully expound the Three Angels Messages and hopefully to you it is
- 1:49for obvious reasons. There is just too much, not too much. There
- 1:53is just so much there, so much there. We're going to glean some
- 1:59lessons just to kind of get us going for the day. But before we
- 2:01go there, I'd like to read from the Book of Luke, chapter eleven,
- 2:06and I will read verse twenty three from the New King James version of
- 2:09the Bible. It says here, he who is not with me is against
- 2:15me, and he who does not gather with me scatters. There's so much
- 2:23there, but Jesus is saying, it's very clear. There is a line
- 2:27in the sand, a line of demarcation like the gauntlet has been set down,
- 2:31and it is clear that whoever loves Jesus is on Jesus's side. And
- 2:38those who are on Jesus's side speak like Jesus, behave like Jesus, Love
- 2:46people like Jesus. Turn away from sin in the spirit and mindset of Jesus.
- 2:53Our sacrificial in how we give, just like Jesus. Our humble and
- 2:59me and lowly in heart like Jesus. Have the fruit of the spirit like
- 3:02Jesus. You see where this is going, like Jesus, Be like Jesus,
- 3:07like the hymn writer would have would have penned. And so those who
- 3:10are with Jesus are like Jesus. They we we are like Jesus. I
- 3:15won't go through that again. I get a little bit excited here, all
- 3:19right. But those who are against me, Jesus said, scatters. So
- 3:23the things that matter to Jesus, they scatter, They tear them down,
- 3:28they break them down. They don't have the love that Jesus loves. They
- 3:30don't have the mind and ministry mindset that Jesus does. They don't have the
- 3:36success mindset that Jesus does. Those individuals are against Jesus. It's either four
- 3:44or against and the Old Testament. We see Elijah on the Mount Carmel,
- 3:51and he is saying, how long halts ye between two opinions? If God
- 3:55be God, then serve him. If bay Al and Astrooth and all this
- 4:00other wickedness out here be God, than serve that. Then. Of course
- 4:03I think it was Joshua that says, you know, choose you this day
- 4:06whom ye will serve. But as for me and my house, we will
- 4:11serve the Lord. And so there's one line right down the middle and God
- 4:15speaking in the book of Malachi. I wasn't planning on talking about this In
- 4:18Malachi. He's like, but I'm listening. I'm listening. In Malachi and
- 4:23chapter three he's saying like, I'm listening to what you are saying about me.
- 4:30I'm witnessing and listening and taking a record of what you're saying about me.
- 4:35And the long story short is that some people will say, well,
- 4:39what is the use of serving God? What is the use of serving God?
- 4:43Like it doesn't make sense? And then others will say, but God
- 4:46is so good, and you want to say, well, how good is
- 4:48he? And then they talk about how it is more than just worth it
- 4:53to serve Jesus. It pays to serve Jesus every single day. And he
- 4:59says, I will hear that witness and draw a line in the sand and
- 5:02say, this is the difference between those who serve me and those who serve
- 5:08me not. And so this is what we're talking about. And so when
- 5:12we get into the Book of Revelation, chapter fourteen. Now we get into
- 5:15the Book of Revelation, chapter fourteen, and we read beginning at verse six,
- 5:19we see a message that is clear. It's either either it's one or
- 5:24the other. It's black, it's white, And the Bible reads here and
- 5:27I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven. So we see the
- 5:30urgency, We see the swiftness of this whatever is about to happen, having
- 5:33the everlasting Gospel to preach unto them that dwell upon the earth, and to
- 5:39every nation and kindred and tongue and people. So we have the power of
- 5:43God unto salvation being preached into the entire world, going out swiftly, going
- 5:48out swiftly to everyone who speaks any language, any kind of person that you've
- 5:55met or not met. And then he says in verse seven, with a
- 5:59loud voice, fear God, that is, to have reverential awe of God,
- 6:02and to serve him and give glory to him, that is, to
- 6:05become a reflection of His holiness and everything else that is God in the earth.
- 6:11We become like Him in the earth. For the hour of His judgment
- 6:15is come. His judgment is in three phases, if you want to say,
- 6:20in three phases, the preadvent phase hah, the time of what we
- 6:27see and look over the books, as in Revelation chapter twenty, and then
- 6:31the execution of his judgment that comes later at the end when he destroys all
- 6:35sin and sinners in three phases. But the hour of his call it preadvent
- 6:41judgment is come. And worship Him that made heaven and earth and the sea
- 6:47and the fountains of waters. In the Book of Isaiah, beginning at chapter
- 6:53forty, we see God. And pardon me if you don't like this illusion,
- 6:57I would understand it. But we see God flexing his spiritual and holy
- 7:00muscles. The fact that he is the only true and living God, Blessed
- 7:05be his name, the eternal and powerful God, Blessed be his name.
- 7:10We see him going through this and saying, now, if there be a
- 7:13God among you, because there were so many false gods that the people were
- 7:16worshiping. If there be a God among you, let him declare the end
- 7:20from the beginning. Hmm. Let him declare the end from the beginning,
- 7:25and I'll serve him to And so God is saying, wait a minute,
- 7:28now, I am the only one that made heaven. I'm the only one
- 7:31that made the earth. I am the only one that made the sea and
- 7:34the fountains of waters. And we see that identified in the Book of Psalms
- 7:40chapter nineteen. We see it identified in the Book of Romans chapter one.
- 7:44We see it identified so many other places in the Bible. We see it
- 7:47in the Ten Commandments law in the Sabbath commandment, that he made heaven and
- 7:53earth, the sea, and all that in them is yes. And he
- 7:56blessed the Sabbath day the seventh day, and then of course he sanctified it.
- 8:01So we see that this is the voice of God to the nations verse
- 8:05eight, and followed another angel saying, Babylon is fallen. All confusion is
- 8:11fallen. Brothers and sisters, All false systems of worship that supposedly tend to
- 8:20lead to God, all paths don't lead to God. You see what happened
- 8:24at the Tower of Babel. They built a monument to themselves. They were
- 8:28building a pathway to the gods. That's what Babylon meant to the Babylonian people,
- 8:33and to the Hebrew people, it meant confusion. All of that is
- 8:37fallen is fallen that great city, because she made all nations to drink of
- 8:41the wine of the wrath of her fornication. And the third Angel followed them,
- 8:48saying in a loud voice, if anybody worshiped the Beast and his image
- 8:52and in the mark in his in his image, and receive his mark in
- 8:56his forehead or in his hand, the same shall drink of the of the
- 9:00wrath of God, which has poured out without mixture, into the cup of
- 9:03his indignation. And he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence
- 9:09of the Holy Angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And so all
- 9:13of this is to say that when God speaks, we must listen. All
- 9:18of this is to say that God is love, and his loving kindness comes
- 9:24to a point where he has to destroy anything that is unlike him and that
- 9:28is not loving. Why because one day we will have to have the pulse
- 9:35of God's love to beat throughout the universe with nothing in the way. This
- 9:39is God's mission manifest in three Angels message. Thanks for joining us listening.
- 9:46Friends. Always remember we cannot live by bread alone, but by every word
- 9:50that comes from the mouth of God. This has been your daily portion with
- 9:54El David Harris. Make it a great day. Yeah,
