• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too
• 0:03
  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
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: yesterday's portion of heavenly manna the word of God to
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: keep us through today's challenges. On this program, we are
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: going to change all of that. Let's experience God's words
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: today and receive the power we need to live healthy,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: vibrant lives. Welcome to Your Daily Portion with your host,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: author speaker Elle David Harris.

  Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning, Good morning. It is Thursday, September twelve,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. Hello, my name is El David Harris.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: I am your host, and this is your Daily Portion
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: where we give you God's word every single day and
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: today is no exception. We are continuing in our Lesson
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: study series through the Book of Mark, and our caption
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: for today are Who Are You? Is? Who are You?
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Who Are You? We'll get into that in just a moment,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: but first I'd like to say welcome to you and
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: ask you to go over to your Daily Portion dot com.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Please join our online community, pick up the Your Daily
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Portion book, and let us know where you are in
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: the world. At your Daily Portion dot com. This is
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: one of the ways that we continue to build faith
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: and fellowship. Let's go ahead and pray, and then we
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: will get underway. Father and Heaven, Thank you for giving
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: us this new day. Thank you for loving us and
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: protecting us thus far in the week. Please help us
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: to know our identity in You. Help us never to
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: forsake you and flee. Help us to be strong in
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: these last days and not weak like those disciples of
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: yours were. And I know and know that some people
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: are confused and think that we have to do the
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: wrong that those men did. But God, you have shown us,
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: even in their lives, that you are able to keep
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: us strong, to keep us from falling. And I pray
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: that we will accept this in Jesus' name, I pray
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Amen and Amen again. I need to say something to
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: us all. I don't know, because you represent countries all
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: over this world, on almost every continent, and so your
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: mindsets may be different than where I happen to be.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: But I find that when God's people where I am
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: living come together and we discuss these things, we say
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: we're no better than them, Meaning when the disciples made
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: those terrible errors, when the children of Israel, God's people
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: up until Jesus was born on planet Earth, had made
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: those terrible errors. I hear us constantly drilling into each
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: other's minds that we are just like them, and I'm like,
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: hmm hmm, Well that doesn't have to be the case.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: I'm going to give you an example. In just a moment.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: We need to transform, We need our mindsets transformed. And
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: this may be the moment for a lot of you
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: and so and so. Yes, they the disciples forsook Jesus
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: and fled. Yes, that first generation of freed slaves out
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: of Egyptian captivity, God's people, all of them, Aaron Moses included,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: died in the wilderness because of their lack of faith.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: And if you think like me, and you're listening keenly,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: there are one or two of you that are saying, wait, wait, wait, wait,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: not everybody, not so fast, not so fast. That second
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: generation didn't die. Okay, that's good, that's good. Those children
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: who were twenty years and younger at the time of
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: the exodus, they didn't die. Okay, that's true. But there's
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: somebody else out there that's saying, not so fast, Dave,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: you're talking fast. Ld you're talking fast. Slow down a
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: little bit. Joshua and Caleb were faithful. Joshua and Caleb
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: were faithful. Hmm. And those children of Israel, they did
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: not die. Those were the two men that lived and
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: saw the promised land from that first generation of people.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: And what this says to me, Enoch, Elisha, Joshua, Caleb,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: can I continue, Abigail? Can I continue? Job? And so
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: many more? Anna holda huh. These are people, Hilkiah. These
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: are people who demonstrated Daniel Hannah, Nayah Miche yale as Ariah.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: These people demonstrated the kind of character that God Joseph
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: h the son of Yakub Israel. Ah. Yeah, these people
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: demonstrated what it's like to actually yield our will to God.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: And so we have to stop giving each other the
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: complex to think that we have to be like Judas,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: we have to be like the rest of the disciples
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: that ran away from Jesus. I just gave you multiple
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: examples of people who decided that no turning back was
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: their motto. They decided that they would follow Jesus. Joshua
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: And he actually served the Lord the prophet Samuel, he
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: served the Lord. I can go on and on and on.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Niah Mayah he served the Lord. Isaiah learned to serve
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: the Lord. So we need to be on the side
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: of those individuals. I know we can all repent. Thank God,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: they forsook him and fled and then most of them repented.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Judas didn't. And we can be like that. But I
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: just need you to know that there are people who
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: stand on on the principles of God ten toes down,
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: who don't rest on our laurels. We don't trust in ourselves,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: we don't lean to our own understanding, but we do
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: trust God to the degree what degree, Dave? We trust
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: God to the degree that these men and women demonstrated
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: that they would be holy no matter what happened. And
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: if you're living in the last days, that is where
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: you and I must can and will come to if
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: we're God's children. And so stop preaching into your brain
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: that you have to do the wrong thing. Stop that
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: we're no better than them. Well, it's not about being better.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: It's about being submitted to God's will. And God has
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: people who will not bow, and I want you to
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: be one of those people. Every person who's under the
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: sound of my voice. You're on radio, television, you are
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: on a podcast, you're on YouTube, you're in social media,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: and somebody may have shared this with you, and this
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: is your first time. I need you to resolve today,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: on this day, on September twelve, twenty twenty four, that
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: you will stand and you will not fall, you will
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: not crumble. You will cash in on the promise where
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Judas or Jude recorded now unto him that is able
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: to keep you from falling and to present you faultless
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: before the Father with exceeding joy. You will be one
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: of those people in these last days. I hope this
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: is clear to you. I hope this is clear to you.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: And so now Jesus is being carted from mock trial
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: to mock trial in Mark chapter fourteen, beginning at verse sixty,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: and he's going from place to place and place to
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: place in these men, these wicked men verse sixty. And
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: the high priests stood up in the midst and act
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Jesus saying, answerest thou nothing against those accusations that they
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: were throwing and hurling at him? What is it that
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: these witness against thee? But he Jesus held his peace,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: and he answered nothing. You see, Jesus had no reason
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: to defend himself. His character and connection to God his
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Father was defense enough. His character, the manifestation of the
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: fullness of God bodily was enough to answer the claims.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: He answered nothing. Again, the High Priest asked him and said,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: unto him, art thou the Christ, the son of the Blessed.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: See they should have been They should have been studying
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: the Bible, like they should have been studying in Daniel,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: where he would manifest as the anointed One. They should
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: have seen the works and examined the works on the
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: merits of the work's sake, to know that he was
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: indeed Jesus, the anointed one Messiah who was to come.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Are you the son of the Blessing? He said, I am,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: and ye shall see the son of Man sitting on
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: the right hand of power and coming in the clouds
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: of heaven. And the High Priest rent his clothes and said,
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Jesus was prophesying. By the way in that moment. Now
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: we see Jesus is prophesying about what is written of
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: now in Revelation chapter one and verse seven. Them also
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: that pierced him, They will see Jesus coming in the
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: clouds of heaven, and the High Priest rent his clothes.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: When the high priest should have worshiped him. The High
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Priest rent his clothes and said, what need we any
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: further of witnesses, And then of course he says that
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Jesus blasphemes, and on and on, and then they start
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: to beat Jesus. Are you serious, the one who came
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: to save us from our sins? Are you serious? The
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: one who created us, the one who gave all so
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: that we could be saved. They aren't beating him, Yeah,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: they're beating him about the head and face. Of course,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Peter he cursed and said bad words to distance himself
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: from Jesus, who was taking a beating that Peter should
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: have taken, that we all should have taken. And Jesus
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: was preparing himself to give his life for us and Peter,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: and Peter's saying bad words and running away, and all
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: of the rest of the disciples have already forsaken him,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: and Judas betrayed him, and Judas is is going to
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: go ahead and kill himself later. And Jesus, with all
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: of what's hanging and weighing in the balance. Jesus stood
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: with his eyes focused. He knew exactly what he came
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: here to do, and he came here to save you.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Who are you When the question is asked, are you
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: a child of God? Are you going to run away
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: from Jesus too? You get a great day 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,
