• 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.

  Speaker 2: how you and Jesus are unified. I pray God that
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: we will be submissive in our mindset to you and
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: not make up stuff as we go along, but to
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: listen to You and to treat this subject as holy
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: and to be holy in Jesus name. I pray Amen
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: and Amen again Jesus and the Father. There, Jesus and
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: the Father. My mind went as I was preparing today
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: for this two Revelation chapters four and five. I wish
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: I really had the time to drill this. But what
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: I get from Revelation chapters four and five in this
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: context is that there's no competition in heaven anymore. I said,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: there's no competition in heaven anymore. You see, after Lucifer,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: who became Satan, the accuser, now the accuser of the brethren,
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: the enemy of God and everything that is godly in
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: the universe, the arch enemy number one, Public enemy number one. Yeah,
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: once he was kicked out of heaven when he made
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: war in heaven and mi kl meaning Jesus Christ and
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: his angels got rid of the devil and his angels.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: And now the devil's down here. The devil's down here
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: tempting humans. But when that happened, that ended all competition
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: in heaven. He was the one that was in the way.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: And when you read in Roman Revelation chapters four and five,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: you see cry like a hue and cry in the universe.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: And the discussion is set in heaven where there are
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: different beings and the angels and the Son of God,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: God the Son is there, and God our Father is there.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: And this cry goes out because because no one is
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: able to look into the book or unseal the seven Seals.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: And then the Bible teaches us that while the beings
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: in heaven are worshiping God our Father, there comes a
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: point when there is one who comes from the midst
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: of the throne and he is able to look on,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: look in lay hold upon open the seven seals, and
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: it is Jesus Christ. He's worthy, worthy, is the lamb
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: that was slain. He's worthy to open the books, lay
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: his hands on the book, look on, look in, unseal
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: the books. And then all out worship breaks out of
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, who comes from the midst of the throne
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: of God, our Father. And so in Revelation chapter four,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: the Father is worshiped and he's given all the glory.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: And then in Revelation chapter five, the one who comes
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: from the midst of the throne, Jesus Christ, the mighty
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: lion of the tribe of Judah. He comes from the
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: midst of the throne, and all worship breaks out, and
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: those beings worship Jesus, and there's no competition. You see,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: we can learn from their relationship because they are unified
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: to the degree that they are never competing with one another.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: They are always on the same page, and in our context,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: on the same page to save us. In fact, the
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Bible teaches us in Genesis chapter one, verses twenty six
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and twenty seven, let us make humanity, let us make
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: man in our image and our likeness. And then of
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: course God actually creates but together Ah, Jesus is our creator.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: But guess what, the Father, The Father is our creator
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: to the Holy Ghost was present during creation as well,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: and so we see that when they say, let us
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: make humanity in our own image and in our likeness,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: we were to learn a lesson about unity, a lesson
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: about being one with God, our Father, a lesson about
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: taking our orders from the Father's son and holy ghosts,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: so that we can, of course have right relationship with him,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: no competition, no competition. And in Genesis chapter three, beginning
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: at verse seven, the Bible reads, the eyes of both
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: of them were open, meaning Adam and Eve, and they
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: knew that they were naked, and they sold fig leaves
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: together and made themselves aprons. And they heard the voice
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: of the Lord God walking in the garden in the
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: cool of the day. And Adam and his wife they
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: did something really weird for beings that were supposed to
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: be perfect, the ones who were created right out of
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: the hand of God, and he breathed into their nostrils
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: the breath of life, and they became a living soul.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: These first humans who were completely perfect, with no genetic flaws,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: with no grandfather who smoked or drank like, with no
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: grandmother who lied or cheated or stole. They were perfect
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: from the hands of God. But now they're hiding in
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: the bushes, trying to cover their sins with fig leaf aprons.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Come on, That is what people do when we break
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: our unity with God. Do you see where we're going
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: with this? Got our Father, God the Son is They're
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: unified in all ways, The Holy Ghost unified. We'll talk
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: about him in another day. But the children of God
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: are now disunified, ununified. They are hiding because they are
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: a shamed. The Bible says, and Adam and his wife
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: the trees in the garden, and the Lord God called
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: to Adam and said, unto him, where art thou? The
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: question that I have for all of us is where
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: are we? Where are we? When God, our Father is
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: unified with God the Son, there is no competition with them.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: And the Holy Ghost is bringing all truth to our
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: understanding and awareness, and empowering us to live according to
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: the words that he is bringing to our minds. Whatsoever,
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ commanded us, and he is Jesus is lo
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: he low, he said, he is with us alway, even
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: to the end of the world. Are we hiding in
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: the bushes because we're ashamed and naked? Are we hiding
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: in the bushes? Why because we have doubts about God,
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: doubt about our relationship. Have we separated ourselves from God
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: and then chosen to further separate ours by hiding our
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: sins rather than allowing God to reveal them so we
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: can be delivered from them. Well, God has given us
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: so many hopeful truths in the scripture to get us
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: out of the bushes, to become unified with Him. And
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: so really, I would love to read all of these
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: passages from the middle of the lesson, but I want
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: you to read them in your spare time and then
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: come into the community, your Daily Portion dot Com, join
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: that online community, and share with me what you have found.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: I will read a couple of these passages, and then
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you to share
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: in the community. Okay, And so let's read. I will
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: read John chapter six and verse sixty nine. The Bible reads,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: and we believe and are sure that thou art the Christ,
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: the son of the Living God. And so when the
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: individuals who had heard Jesus say that we should eat
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: of his flesh and drink of his blood, we should
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: have all of who God is in our lives through Christ.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: There were people who left Jesus. They couldn't handle the truth.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: They couldn't handle the truth, so they walked away. And
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Jesus said to his disciples, are you going to leave too? Now?
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Are you going to leave? Two? And among other things,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: we see that there is a declaration for from Peter
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: that says, but we believe and are sure that thou
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: warn't the Christ, the son of the Living God. Where
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: else would we go? We want to have unity with you, Jesus.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Your power is unborrowed underrived. You are holy. Blessed be
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: your name. We're not going anywhere. Please teach us God
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: to be so unified with you that we will never
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: leave here.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us, listening to friends. Always remember we
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: comes from the mouth of God. This has been your
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: daily portion with el David Harris, make it a great day. Yeah,
