11 28 2024 Condemnation · 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.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Vibrant lives.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Welcome to your Daily Portion with your host, author speaker,

• 0:34
  Speaker 3: It is Thursday, November twenty eight, twenty twenty four. Hello,
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: my name is Elle David Harris. I am your host,
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: and this is your Daily Portion where we give you
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: God's Word every single day, and today is no exception.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: We are continuing in our Lesson study series themes in
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: the Gospel of John, and our caption for today is Condemnation,
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: M Condemnation. We'll get into that in just a moment,
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: but first I'd like to say welcome to you and
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: ask you to please go over to your Daily Portion
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: dot com. Please join our online community. I need you
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: to click that number seven. I have been saying this steadily.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: It's at least since my birthday in October that I
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: need one thousand people. I would love ten thousand, but
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: let's start with one thousand people to click that number
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: seven and subscribe for further spiritual development and growth. I
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: need you to also let us know where you are
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: in the world at your daily portion dot com. This
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: is one of the ways that we continue to build
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: faith and fellowship. Let's go ahead and pray and then
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: we will get underway. Father in heaven, thank you for
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: this day. Thank you for giving us your holy spirit,
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: and thank you for your word. Thank you for giving
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: us the opportunity to live live. I pray that we
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: will choose life today in Jesus name. I pray Amen
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: and Amen again. Condemnation. Can I just begin with this
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: discussion here? When God is transforming our lives, there is
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: no need for us to be in a condemned state.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: My camera's blinking. Don't be distracted by that. I guess
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: it's too hot in here.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: Do not allow yourself to fall into the mindset or
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: the lifestyle of condemnation. You see, God has given us
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: very clear guidelines in his Word about how to live,
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: and he has also given us the power of His
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: Holy Spirit. As we are reborn, we experience the new
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: birth with God. There is no reason for any of
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: us to be condemned. No reason, absolutely no reason. And
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: so the Bible says here I'm reading from the top
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: of the lesson in John chapter three eighteen through twenty
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: one and John chapter one and verse ten. Whoever believes
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: in Him is not condemned. And so just ask yourself
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: the question, and ask and answer this honestly, do I
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: actually believe in Jesus? Like does my life demonstrate that
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: I believe in Jesus? Is my trust in him? Is
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: he the one of whom I love to speak? Is
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: he that he?
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Is it?
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: That it is in his power that I share whatever
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: I have that I can share with other people. Whoever
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: believes in Him is not condemned. But whoever does not
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: the name of God's one and only son. Everyone who
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: does evil hates the light and will not come into
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: But whoever lives in the truth comes to the light.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Do you come into the light? You see how brightly
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: I'm lit? I have lights all over this studio because
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: I'm not hiding from you. I'm coming into God's presence
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: and into your presence because it is the light of
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: God's word that I relish, I honor, I love, and
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: I am doing evil. God forbid that I still come
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: into the light, into His presence, so this can be
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: exposed to God, the ultimate light, and I can repent.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: So I'm not hiding from you. I'm not putting on
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: some kind of shield, a filter over me, over myself
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: to hide, because I'm coming into the light so that
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: whatever it is that we're experiencing together can be revealed.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: The Bible teaches us that there is no condemnation for
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: those who are in Christ Jesus. It's the same as
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: what we just read. So are you feeling condemned? Now
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: you can be honest if you choose. Are you feeling
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: condemned by God? Is it that you have committed a sin?
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: Have you made a promise to yourself? And maybe you've
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: made that promise multiple times? And now your promises like
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: inspired or like inspirite. Inspiration says, your promises feel like
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: ropes of sand, and that is your current experience, and
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: you're like God what am I going to do? And
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: now you feel condemned. If that is your case, I
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: want you to type I feel condemned in the chat
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: and I know that this is something maybe you want
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: to keep to yourself, but it's almost like an altar call.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Like when people are faced with the reality of our
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: sins and facing the opportunity to be transformed, then we
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: take the walk, we raise the hand, we make the commitment.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: We are vulnerable before God, and I'm thankful that this
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: is a safe space. Like who can hold this against you?
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: The Bible says, who can condemn the very elect of God?
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: It is Christ who died yay and is risen again,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: So nobody can disrespect you because you feel condemned right now.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Today is the day that your mind must be transformed.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: Today is the day that your life will be transformed.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: You need to experience the metamorphosis, and now is the time.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: How can we do this? The Bible teaches us in
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: First John chapter four. I want you to read the
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: entire chapter when you have an opportunity. The Bible teaches
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: us that there is no fear in love. Are you listening, brother?
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Are you listening sister? Those who say that you feel
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: condemned right now. Uh, there is no fear in love,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: but perfect love casts out fear for fear hath torment.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Those who are perfected in love, Are you ready to
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: embrace the love of God for you? Not the way
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: that your daddy treated you, Not the way that your
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: mommy treated you.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Not like that individual who's always nitpicking. Pick pick pick pick.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: You did this wrong? Pick pick pick. You didn't put
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: that in the right place.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Pick pick pick pick fix this, fix that, pick pick
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: pick pick pick?
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Why do you do this? Why do you do that?
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: You should do the other. You should do the other
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: when you feel that condemnatory thing. You committed a crime,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: and you did your time. You may be incarcerated right now,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: and you are listening to me somehow. You are listening
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: to me from behind prison walls, but you are paying
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: your debt to society. Today is the day for you
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: to be perfected in love. Today is your day to
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: be perfected in love. Why Because perfect love casts out fear, fear,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: hath torment. Those who are perfected in love can come
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: to God boldly in the day of judgment. Why because,
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: as Romans chapter eight, beginning at verse one says, there
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh, but
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: according to the spirit. For the law of the spirit
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: of life, which is in Christ. Jesus has made you free, brother,
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: has made you free, dear sister, from the law of
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: sin and death. That voice of condemnation that's in your
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: life because you feel like everything is not perfect and tidy,
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: give it all to Jesus. Give it all to Jesus,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: those untidy feelings, those feelings of inadequacy, that imposter syndrome
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: that some of you are suffering through at this very
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: moment in time. Spiritually speaking, what if they discover that
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not what I have been saying. I've been standing
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: up and singing on the choir, I have been teaching,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: I have been preaching, I have been leading the prayer ministry.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: I have been leading people into the community to assist
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: those who are lost. But I myself am feeling lost.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Today is your day. Today is your day. There is
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. So
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: embrace Jesus today. And when we look into the Bible,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: we look into the Bible as we are perfected in love,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: and of course Jesus was perfected in love as he
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: lived on planet Earth. In Matthew chapter four, the devil
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: tried to separate him from God's love. He tried to
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: cause Jesus to doubt, and he would bring to him
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: in those temptations this aspersion, this doubt. If thou be
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: the son of God, then do this. It's like a devilish.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Simon says, right, if you want to prove that you
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: are God's child, then I need you. If you want
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: to prove that you are indeed the one who created
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: the earth and the universe, then you do the thing
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: that I say. And Jesus said, hold on, hold on,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: hold on. It is written, It is written, It is written.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: When you are feeling condemned, you go to God's word
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: and you find the it is written that's attached to
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: the trial that you're going through, and you lay hold
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: of the promises that God has manifest under the authority
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: of his scripture, and let his word wash over you
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: and empower you to move from condemnation, from death into life.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: There's no condemnation for those who Thanks for joining us listening.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Friends, Always remember we cannot live by bread alone, but
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: by every word that comes from the mouth of God.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: This has been your daily portion with El David Harris.
