09 18 2025 Life Application at Lunchtime Edition · Your Daily Portion with L. David Harris

• 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.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Hello, good afternoon, good afternoon, good afternoon, and happy lunchtime.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: It is Thursday, September eighteen, twenty twenty five. Hello, my
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: name is El David Harris. I am your host, and
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: this is your Daily Portion where we give you God's
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: word every single day, and today is no exception. Arm
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: We are continuing in our Lesson study series through the
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Book of Exodus and our caption for it, this afternoon
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: is the Shining Face of Moses. The Shining Face of Moses.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: I'm going to explain to those who are not aware
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: what this is. Our morning broadcast that's been going on
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: for years and years on hundreds of radio stations and
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: then online platforms. Et cetera. That is how we study
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: God's word together, and this is how we apply it.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: We do some application, but not enough in the morning time.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: And this is a test, like until September twenty six.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: I'm testing this lunchtime edition and if it is successful,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: we will continue it into the Book of Joshua. If not,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: then we'll just keep with our mourning broadcast and that'll
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: be the end of it. Anyway, the basis of it
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: you can find at your Daily Portion dot com. Pick
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: up the Life Application Guide and if again this is successful,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: will continue to test and see your participation. If it's successful,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: we will continue for the foreseeable future. But again, September
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: twenty six is our is the day that we determine
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: whether this will continue or not. Okay, so let's go
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: ahead and pray and get underway. Father, We thank you
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: for the privilege of coming together and applying your word. Now, Father,
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: please give us wisdom for this day and teach us
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: to truly live what we learn in Jesus name, I pray,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Amen and a man Again, So how do we know
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: if this is going to be successful? Well, you continue
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: to click share share this program, Share the afternoon program
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: just like you've done for your daily portion proper. Okay.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: So we're going to apply in four key areas. Which
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: one of those areas are you applying specifically? Okay, So
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: let's go with spiritual application to get us kicked off.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: We're using the WIN acronym or framework. What is important now,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: God's revealed character transforms us from the inside out. God's
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: revealed character transforms us from the inside out. I internalize
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: the inside. Moses's face shone because he fully embraced God's
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: goodness and his kindness. It isn't a mere presence, but
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: a deep surrender to God's character that brought that transformation.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Like Moses, we become radiant. Do people say that you're radiant?
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: You know you're not pregnant, brother sister, you know that
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: you're beyond child bearing years, or you're too young, or
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: you know what, You're just not pregnant. But people say
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: you're glowing. Well, I hope it's the power of God
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: through your life. I wish I had the time, but
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: that is the reality. Like Moses, we become radiant when
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: we open our hearts to God's love and grace, letting
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: him shape us. Next best move, ask God to reveal
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: where you resist his transforming work. Is that a reality?
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Maybe you don't, but if it is, ask him to
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: reveal that, then surrender those areas to him in daily prayer. Yeah,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: you might need to write the list down like God
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: may be saying this is the way that you do X,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Y or Z, and I need you to do it
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: this other way. Write that stuff down and then ask
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: God to show you how to surrender that daily in prayer.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Now we go in for the personal application. What is
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: important now? What is important now? Transformation is a gradual
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: process of becoming like Jesus. Now, I want to be
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: very clear here, I'm not giving an excuse for us
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: to drag our spiritual feet right. You know I'm growing
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: and still be disrespectful in our daily experiences with people.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: You feel me like, don't use this gradual concept as
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: an excuse to lag behind. God is able to do
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: things instantly. He told the woman caught in the very
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: act of adult I wish I had time to really
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: deal with that. But those men were foul. But he
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: told her to go because he did not condemn her
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: and sin no more. His biddings are enablings. We don't
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: have to take forever to learn how to do what
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: God has us to do. Anyway, let's continue internalize the
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: insight personally. Paul reminds us that the Holy Ghost works
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: as we fix our eyes on Jesus. This ongoing process
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: means that every part of our character can be molded
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: by His grace. I should say must be molded by
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: His grace. The Cross reminds us that we are forgiven
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: and empowered to change. So you can't say that I
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: was born analytical and when you overanalyze, over analyze it,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: you can't say, well that's just the way I am. No, no, no, no.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: God can show you how you can prize progress over perfection.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Like I wish I had
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: the time to go through that, But every single day
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: we can improve in even our personal development. What is
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: the next best move? Choose one personal habit or attitude
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: that does not reflect God's character and invite the spirit
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: the Holy Ghost to begin transforming it this week. Are
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: you messy? And I mean that literally, I'm not trying
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: to be philosophical here, Like you leave mess all over
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: the place. That's not a godly attribute. Ask God to
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: help you fix that. Do you do you interact with
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: people in a sloppy way where you just expect them
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: to come on to your side of the discussion and
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: you just leave it that way because after all, they
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: know how you are. Yeah, that's not a godly attribute.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Yield back to God before I start preaching. Let's go
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: to the next best move. Choose one personal habit or
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: attitude that does not reflect God's character and invite the
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Holy Ghost to transform that. I did say that a
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: moment ago. Now we're going to relationships application. What is
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: important now? Your character shapes how you relate to others.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Duh by their fruits, Jesus said, you will know them,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: internalize the insight. A transformed character manifests kindness, patience, humility,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: and love. Others experience God's presence through you as you
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: reflect his image in everyday interactions. Can I just say,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: when I am on travel, I'm talking about on air
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: line travel, going on the airplane somewhere, I always wear
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: a shirt that says be kind. I am reminding myself
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: to be kind and those with whom I interact to
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: do the same. And I promise you it has. It
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: has been so beneficial because that is a stressful situation.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I do not like traveling. I do not like getting
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: on airplanes. Not because I'm afraid something's gonna happen to
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: the airplane. I don't really care about my own experience
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: that way. But it's so stressful timelines and all of
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: these bazillions of people and is it gonna be delayed?
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Or is that your seat even though you paid for
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: it and they say no, it's not anymore, you know
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: what I mean? Like that kind of stuff. So be
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: kind helps remind me to be kind and hopefully helps
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: other people to treat me in a kind way. Next
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: best move, look for one person you interact with regularly
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: and intentionally demonstrate one aspect of God's character in your
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: next encounter. I choose kindness. That's the big one for me.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: What is yours? Go ahead and type it into chat
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: in fact, like, what is the actual of God's character
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: that you want to reflect? Specifically? Now, professional before we
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: come to a swift close. What is important now? Leadership
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: is about reflecting God's glory through integrity and grace. Internalize
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: that insight. When leaders embrace God's transforming power, their work
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: reflects the glory of Christ. This inspires trust and foster's
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: growth in teams and organizations. What's your next best move
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: to reflect in your leadership style, which traits demonstrate God's
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: character and which of those need refining. You'll have to
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: answer that peace.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: 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,
