05 28 2025 Wine and Blood · Your Daily Portion with L. David Harris

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too much,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy for
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect yesterday's
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: portion of heavenly manna, the word of God to keep
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: us through today's challenges. On this program, we are going
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: to change all of that. Let's experience God's words today
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: and receive the power we need to live healthy, vibrant lives.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Welcome to Your Daily Portion with your host, author speaker,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Elle David Harris.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Good morning, good morning, Good morning. It is Wednesday. It's
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: May twenty eight, twenty twenty five. Hello, my name is
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: El David Harris. I am your host, and this is
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: your Daily Portion where we give you God's word every
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: single day, and today is no exception. We are continuing
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: in our lesson study series how to study Bible Prophecy,
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: and our caption for today is wine and Blood. Wine
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: and Blood. We'll get into that in just a moment,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: but first I'd like to just say welcome to everyone
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: joining us, especially those joining us for the very first time.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Please go over to your Daily Portion dot com. Please
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: join our online community. Also pick up the Your Daily
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Portion Life application guide and let us know where you
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: are in the world at your Daily portion dot com.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: This is one of the ways that we continue to
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: build faith and fellowship. Let's go ahead and pray and
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: then we will get underway. Father, we do thank you
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: for giving us the opportunity to open up your word,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: and I'm asking you to please go over in our
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: minds those things that matter most to you. Help us
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: to be to be connected with you in a special way. Father,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Please teach us how to love you, and when we're thirsty,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: to drink from your well and not the wells of
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: the world. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen and a man,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: and again, are you thirsty? That's a question this morning?
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Are you thirsty? Which cup do you drink from to
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: satisfy your thirst? And of course today we have two cups,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: two cups from which to choose, and we'll talk about
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: that in detail beginning now. So we're going now into
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: the Bible Book of Psalms, chapter seventy five. Which cup
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: are you willing to drink from when you're thirsty? Verses
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: seven and eight. The Bible reads, but God is the judge.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: He puteth down one and setteth up another for the
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: hand of the Lord. For in the hand of the
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Lord there is a cup. I told you, when you're thirsty,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: you have two cups from which to choose. There is
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: a cup, and the wine is red. He poureth out
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: of the same. But the dregs thereof all the of
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: the earth shall ring them out and drink them. So,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: when you're thirsty, do you want to drink from the
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: cup of God's wrath? That should be a hearty no.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: That should be a no. But there are some key
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: judgment themes. We'll come back to that in a moment.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Some key judgment themes in the Book of Psalms, chapter
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: seventy five. Of course, we won't go through the entire book, right,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: but or the chapter. But God alone judges, not human powers.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about true judgment comes from God, not humans.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: There is a cup. There is a symbol of judgment.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: That is wrath, that is consequences for sin. That is
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: the cup you don't want to drink from. Can I
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: just say that, like, nobody listening to me should be
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: wanting to drink from that cup. But sometimes people set
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: themselves up. Sometimes we set ourselves up to drink from
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: that cup. The righteous are presented as exalted in verses
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: nine and ten. Now there is another cup. I did
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: mention it to you. Let's read about it in the
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Book of Matthew. The Book of Matthew, chapter twenty six.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: If you read verses twenty six through twenty nine, you'll
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: get the gist of it. But let me just read
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: from verse twenty eight, and the Bible reads, for this
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: is my blood of the New Covenant or New Testament,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: which is shed for you or for the many, for
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: the remission of sin. So the cup, the cup of
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: the New Testament, the cup of mercy. That is the
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: cup that we want to drink from. You See, we
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: know that we are sinners saved by grace. We are
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: sinners who have turned our backs on him. All have
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: sin and comes short of the glory of God. And
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: the individuals who get that memo under the Holy Ghost
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: and say, you know what, God, I don't like the
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: way that I have treated you. I realize that I
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: have turned my back on you when you have given
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: me every possible thing in order to be saved. I
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: am willing to let you be in control of my life.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Thank you for your mercy. We're drinking from the cup
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: of mercy. I know that I've been disrespectful to people.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: I've been unkind in some situations. I've allowed pride to
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: separate between you and I and between me and other people.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I've allowed all of the things that I enjoy as
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: a human being that did not love God. In entertainment,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: listening to and seeing and places that I've gone, I
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: know that those things have separated from me. Thank you
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: for this cup of the New Testament, this covenant that
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: you've made with me that you can make me holy.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Thank you for giving me mercy. I'll drink from that cup.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: And so an insight from that principle is that God
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: also gives us a cup. He's offering this one freely
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: to us, but this one is poured out with forgiveness.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: God is pouring out Just imagine He's serving you with forgiveness,
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: not wrath. At the cross, Jesus actually drank the cup
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: of judgment and wrath for people who have broken the
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: law of God. He's drunk that cup already, but he
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: is now giving us the privilege of drinking from the
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: cup of mercy. Now. Now this is in contrast to
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: the cup in Psalm chapter seventy five and then the
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: ultimate one that is just like that one in Revelation
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: chapter fourteen, verses nine through twelve. So there's the cup
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: of wrath, there's the cup of mercy, but then there
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: is the straight up no chaser that is not mixed
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: cup of ultimate wrath that comes to people who reject
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: God's mercy, who ultimately have rejected God's mercy. In Revelation
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: chapter fourteen and verse ten, the Bible reads the saying
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: those individuals God forbid the saying, shall drink of the
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: wine of the wrath of God, which has poured out
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: without mixture into the cup of his indignation. This judgment
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: comes to those who reject God's authority regularly, who don't
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: choose to repent of those sins, those individuals who say
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: that even though Jesus gave his life for us, that's
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: not enough. I just want to live my own happy
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: life according to my own laws, my own principles. Never
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: mind that God has given us a pathway when he
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: says this is the way, walking in it, when the
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Holy Ghost says, no, go this way. There is a
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: way that seemeth right to a human being, to a man,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: to a woman, to a boy, to a girl. But
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: the ways thereof are the ways of death. This is
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: the right pathway. Choose the Lord and serve him, that
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: is the right pathway. Yes, but there are people who say,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: you know what, I don't really care what God did
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: for me. I don't really care what you all say
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: that God did for me. I'm going to eat, drink,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: and be merry because tomorrow I die. I don't really
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: care what God wants. This is what some people are choosing.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: And in that case, those individuals in the end of
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: the end of time, if they're living during that time,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: they will receive, unfortunately, the mark of the beast. It
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: is unmixed, meaning there is no mercy mixed in that
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: cup of wrath. And so what is that steak? Really?
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: What is that steak is deciding? It's a decision. It's simple.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: We get to decide whom will we worship. Will we
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: worship the devil that we talked about yesterday going up
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: and down into and fro in the earth, or will
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: we worship God in the beauty of holiness. It's very simple.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: It's very simple. And so there's so much I could say,
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: but let me say in these few moments, just more
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: than two minutes to go, that we should live in
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: hope and not in the headline so much chaos, so
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: much brokenness, things that will draw the wrath of God
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: at some point. We don't need to judge God's plan
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: by the current chaos. How long the Bible writers said,
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Oh Lord, how long will you allow the wicked people
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: to prosper? Do not live according to those headlines. Live
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: according to hope, hope in God. Refuse the lie of
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: self exaltation that causes us to separate ourselves from God,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: and then work for the good now while longing for
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: God's final justice. And when He is seen and is
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: as just as he is, his people will inherit the earth.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Make it a great day, peace. Thanks for joining us listening. Friends.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Always remember we cannot live by bread alone, but by
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: every word that comes from the mouth of God. This
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: has been your daily portion with el David Harris. Make
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: it a great day. Yeah,
