1
00:00:01,199 --> 00:00:05,919
Most of us eat every day,
some of us too much because yesterday's food

2
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:10,720
is not enough to supply energy for
today's needs. Why then, do some

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:15,400
of us expect yesterday's portion of heavenly
manna, the word of God to keep

4
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:20,120
us through today's challenges. On this
program, we are going to change all

5
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:25,160
of that. Let's experience God's words
today and receive the power we need to

6
00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:30,839
live healthy, vibrant lives. Welcome
to your Daily Portion with your host,

7
00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:35,000
author speaker, Elle David Harris.
Good morning, Good morning, Good morning.

8
00:00:35,039 --> 00:00:40,079
It is Sunday, May nineteen,
twoenty twenty four. Hello, my

9
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,520
name is El David Harris. I
am your host, and this is your

10
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,280
Daily Portion where we give you God's
word every single day, and today is

11
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:54,200
no exception. We are continuing in
our Lesson study series, the Great Controversy.

12
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:59,439
Our caption for today, the Heavenly
Sanctuary. Let me get this stuff

13
00:00:59,479 --> 00:01:03,079
off the screen that is in my
way. It's in my way, disturbing

14
00:01:03,159 --> 00:01:07,120
my peace. The Heavenly Sanctuary.
We'll get into that in just a moment,

15
00:01:07,159 --> 00:01:10,239
but first I'd like to say welcome
to a new week, and help

16
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,040
help me to just share this with
as many people as possible, because there

17
00:01:15,079 --> 00:01:19,159
are a lot of people, even
God's people, who don't even begin to

18
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,120
understand the truths that I'm going to
be sharing this week with many, many,

19
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,120
many other teachers around the world.
Okay, so please just share this

20
00:01:27,159 --> 00:01:32,040
with as many people as possible.
Also, please go over to your Daily

21
00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:36,439
Portion dot com, join our online
community, pick up the Your Daily Portion

22
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:42,359
book, and look about your Daily
Portion coaching program. It's next level,

23
00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:46,879
it's more than what we're able to
do here, and the focus is a

24
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:52,319
little bit different, like it's for
our transformation, not just inspiration, not

25
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,799
just information. Okay, So go
to your Daily Portion dot com and this

26
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,840
is one of the ways that we
continue to build faith and fellowship. Let's

27
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,920
go ahead and pray and then get
underway. Father in Heaven, thank you

28
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,120
for giving us this new day and
this work week. Father, Please give

29
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:13,719
us your power, your spirit,
your drive and determination to do the work

30
00:02:13,759 --> 00:02:16,800
You've called us to do, and
please give us wisdom and understanding. As

31
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:22,280
we look into the brilliant light of
the sanctuary. In Jesus' name, I

32
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:30,039
pray Amen and Amen again. Okay, so again our caption the Heavenly Sanctuary.

33
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,960
So I want to focus your attention
upward. Okay, and so the

34
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,599
key for me for today is God's
will be done. You may have heard

35
00:02:38,599 --> 00:02:44,840
this before. God's will be done
in Earth or on Earth as it is

36
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,280
in Heaven. Now I'm going to
add something, not the other way around.

37
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,319
May I say that again? Let
me fix the microphone here. Yes,

38
00:02:53,800 --> 00:03:02,520
God's will be done on Earth as
it is in Heaven, not the

39
00:03:02,599 --> 00:03:06,319
other way around. Now. There's
so much I could say here, but

40
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,360
let me just say this. For
people who study the heavenly sanctuary, sometimes

41
00:03:10,719 --> 00:03:20,240
your understanding is skewed because you are
trying to make the heavenly sanctuary look like

42
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:25,039
the earthly man. I say that
again, some of your understanding is skewed

43
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:32,520
because you're trying to make the heavenly
Sanctuary look like the earthly sanctuary instead of

44
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:38,840
what God said, like he wanted
us to understand that whatever He revealed on

45
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:44,360
planet Earth, have them make me
a sanctuary that I may dwell among them.

46
00:03:44,639 --> 00:03:49,800
That was a Kindergarten view. That
was an old Covenant view that would

47
00:03:49,919 --> 00:03:55,759
help usher us into a right understanding
of the relationship that God intended for us

48
00:03:55,759 --> 00:04:00,479
to have, the new covenant type
relationship that God wants us to have,

49
00:04:01,319 --> 00:04:03,840
and you're like, well, why
are you making such a big deal because

50
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:09,120
some of you are making arguments that
don't make any sense. You're trying to

51
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,280
make heaven exactly like the earthly.
Let me give you a good reason why,

52
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,680
a few reasons why that doesn't make
any sense. When we are discussing

53
00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:23,120
the sacrifice, are we talking about
real life animals in twenty twenty four?

54
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,639
Are we talking about the lamb of
God which taketh away the sin of the

55
00:04:25,639 --> 00:04:30,759
world. Uh, let's get that
clear. Are we talking about the altar

56
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,279
of burnt sacrifice in the outer court? Are we talking about the sacrifice,

57
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:40,360
the ultimate sacrifice of what Jesus gave
hah. When we go to the labor,

58
00:04:40,399 --> 00:04:45,279
are we talking about a labor with
water preparing a human priest for ministry?

59
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:51,079
Or are we talking about the water
of life that flows freely to wash

60
00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:57,319
us from our sins Jesus Christ.
When we get into the Holy Place,

61
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:03,439
are we talking about loaves of bread
showbread that is for the particular priests that

62
00:05:03,519 --> 00:05:09,319
are to be exchanged on a weekly
basis. Are we talking about Jesus Christ

63
00:05:09,319 --> 00:05:12,839
the bread of life? Do I
need to continue? We're talking about the

64
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,279
candleabra in twenty twenty four. Not
to be disrespectful, I'm not saying that,

65
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,079
but in twenty twenty four, is
it the seven spirits of God?

66
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:24,680
Or is it a candle obra like
a golden candlestick with seven branches? Is

67
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:29,839
it oil or is it the Holy
Ghost? Is it light that is lit

68
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:31,959
with fire? Or is it Jesus
Christ, the light of the world.

69
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:38,680
Is it in the most holy place? Are they golden cherubim that are molten

70
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:46,759
and crafted and placed or are we
talking about true living covering cherubs? Is

71
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,480
it the arc of the Covenant or
is it the throne of God? Do

72
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:55,920
you see where we're going with this? And so it's all about understanding our

73
00:05:55,959 --> 00:06:02,519
relationship with God. In fact,
Jesus said it that if you destroy this

74
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,800
temple, I will build it up
in three days. And these people thought

75
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:11,120
he was talking about a building.
They were like, forty six years we've

76
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,439
been building this temple, this tabernacle. He's going to destroy it and rebuild

77
00:06:15,439 --> 00:06:17,399
it in three days. And he's
in the Bible says and they didn't know

78
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,199
that he was talking about his body. And in fact, in the Old

79
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:26,279
Testament, the Bible writer said that
God is a little sanctuary to us.

80
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:32,480
So ultimately the sanctuary is a manifestation
of who God is. Even though there

81
00:06:32,519 --> 00:06:39,480
indeed is a place we call the
heavenly Sanctuary. But even still, when

82
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:45,160
all time is over and we get
to see the manifestation of God, finally

83
00:06:45,199 --> 00:06:47,399
when Jesus comes back, we'll see
that there is no need. There's no

84
00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:53,759
temple there because God himself is the
temple thereof. And so I'm not throwing

85
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,759
away the heavenly Sanctuary for sure,
but I am saying that if you're going

86
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:04,199
to understand the heavenly say sanctuary,
the earthly is a shadow, a type,

87
00:07:04,959 --> 00:07:10,240
not a replica. Stop saying that
it's not a replica, because I'd

88
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,839
have to go through all that long
list again. If it's a replica,

89
00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:18,279
then you'll see exactly what I you
know, like lambs and golden candlesticks,

90
00:07:18,279 --> 00:07:23,399
instead of the manifestation of what God
is really trying to get across. So

91
00:07:23,519 --> 00:07:30,079
the heavenly Sanctuary equals the higher reality, and the earthly Sanctuary was a type.

92
00:07:30,439 --> 00:07:34,160
It was a way for us to
understand our relationship with God and what

93
00:07:34,279 --> 00:07:39,480
it takes to get rid of this
sin problem that we have, and from

94
00:07:39,519 --> 00:07:43,720
the book The Great Controversy, page
four hundred and seventeen, it reads,

95
00:07:43,839 --> 00:07:48,199
at the termination of the twenty three
hundred days in eighteen forty four, there

96
00:07:48,279 --> 00:07:55,959
had been no sanctuary on earth for
many centuries. Thus the prophecy unto two

97
00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:03,040
thousand and three hundred days, then
shall the sanctuary be cleansed unquestionably points to

98
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:09,319
the sanctuary in heaven. This is
where the Millerites missed the point. But

99
00:08:09,399 --> 00:08:16,000
we talked about that yesterday. So
the earthly sanctuary had been gone, and

100
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:22,439
it was a symbol, but in
fact what was to be cleansed was the

101
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:28,720
sin record for anyone who yields our
will to God fully and remains covered by

102
00:08:28,759 --> 00:08:33,519
the righteousness of Christ. And then
the sin record, at the appropriate time

103
00:08:35,039 --> 00:08:41,399
will be expunged from the heavenly record
books. I wish I had the time,

104
00:08:41,639 --> 00:08:45,240
but I wanted you to get that. I'm passionate because again, there

105
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:48,519
was a reason why people missed the
point, even in twenty twenty four,

106
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:54,720
because we're trying to use the earthly
as a direct, exact replica rather than

107
00:08:54,840 --> 00:09:01,159
a teaching tool that leads us into
a higher experience with God. Understanding that

108
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:07,600
the heavenly sanctuary is the genuine article
the earthly was leading us to an understanding

109
00:09:07,639 --> 00:09:11,399
in Hebrews, chapter seven and verse
twenty five. The Bible reads, therefore,

110
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:16,360
he is also able to save to
the uttermost those who come to God

111
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:22,240
through him, since he always lives. He's not like one of those earthly

112
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,679
high priests that die and they change
him and get another one. Right,

113
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:31,440
but he ever lives to make intercession
for you, brothers and sisters, and

114
00:09:31,519 --> 00:09:35,840
for me. I'm so thankful that
God did not limit us to what happened

115
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:41,759
on planet Earth, but he's elevating
us to a higher understanding and experience through

116
00:09:41,759 --> 00:09:46,399
the heavenly sanctuary. Peace. Thanks
for joining us listening. Friends, Always

117
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:50,759
remember we cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from

118
00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:56,399
the mouth of God. This has
been your daily portion with el David Harris.

119
00:09:56,039 --> 00:10:00,279
Make it a great day. Yeah,
