1
00:00:01,199 --> 00:00:03,839
Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too

2
00:00:03,919 --> 00:00:07,759
much because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy

3
00:00:07,799 --> 00:00:11,560
for today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,039
yesterday's portion of heavenly manna the word of God to

5
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,000
keep us through today's challenges. On this program, we are

6
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,879
going to change all of that. Let's experience God's words

7
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,920
today and receive the power we need to live healthy,

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,839
vibrant lives. Welcome to Your Daily Portion with your host,

9
00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:33,039

00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,560
Thank you for this day and for the privilege we

have to come together again. This is a worship space.

This is where you promised you would come into our

36
00:01:55,079 --> 00:01:58,359
midst because there are more many, more than two or three,

37
00:01:58,439 --> 00:02:01,760
gathered together in your no. I pray God that we

38
00:02:01,799 --> 00:02:04,799
will we will yield our will to you like Jesus

39
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,560
yielded his will in get semony. In Jesus name, I

40
00:02:08,599 --> 00:02:13,360
pray amen and Amen again. This is good. This is

41
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,280
good get semny. God is teaching us something, okay, and

42
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,479
so we are continuing. I did start the discussion, but

43
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,439
we are continuing now. The discussion. In Mark chapter fourteen,

44
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,759
beginning at verse thirty two, and the Bible reads, and

45
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,000
they came to a place which was named Getsemeny. So

46
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:37,080
Jesus is going through some challenges in his mind and

47
00:02:37,199 --> 00:02:40,240
get Sementy. We're going to see about this. I think

48
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,199
it was Sabbath that we kind of talked about it

49
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,280
a little bit, but we're really going to drill it

50
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,639
now and see what led to this point. And they

51
00:02:49,039 --> 00:02:52,199
came to a place which was named Getsemeny, and he

52
00:02:52,319 --> 00:02:55,919
set unto his disciples, sit ye here while I pray,

53
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,840
Sit ye here while I pray. Now people should have

54
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,639
seen that as a sign that they should be praying, too. Right,

55
00:03:04,719 --> 00:03:08,280
they are following in Jesus's footsteps. So when Jesus is

56
00:03:08,319 --> 00:03:11,599
giving us an example, the Bible says that we now

57
00:03:11,879 --> 00:03:14,719
can and will and must follow in his footsteps if

58
00:03:14,759 --> 00:03:18,400
we are called his disciples. But those disciples didn't do it.

59
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,159
They didn't do it. And the Bible says, here and

60
00:03:22,199 --> 00:03:26,240
he taketh with him these three closer friends, Peter and

61
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,360
James and John, and began to be so amazed and

62
00:03:30,439 --> 00:03:33,319
to be heavy, And he said, unto them, my soul

63
00:03:33,439 --> 00:03:37,960
is exceeding sorrowful now Jesus is being vulnerable toward these men,

64
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,840
these friends, these disciples. He's being vulnerable. He's saying that

65
00:03:41,919 --> 00:03:47,159
he is sorrowful, he is heavy unto death. Tarry ye, hear,

66
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:52,360
and watch your friend, your master, your savior, All of

67
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,319
this in one Jesus is showing you that he needs you.

68
00:03:57,039 --> 00:03:59,639
But what are you going to do in response? They're

69
00:03:59,719 --> 00:04:02,919
time that even though now we see Jesus is glorified,

70
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,280
he is no longer down here living under the limitations

71
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,120
of humanity, even though he has carried some aspects of

72
00:04:11,199 --> 00:04:14,919
humanity into the heavenlyes until this day. But he is

73
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,120
no longer bound by hunger or sorrow or thirst or

74
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,560
those things I shouldn't say bound, but subject to any

75
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,600
of those things, because he has completed his work down

76
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,560
here at least, down here at least. But we even

77
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,079
still there are things that are on God's mind. And

78
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,959
when he shares those things, his love for people, his

79
00:04:37,079 --> 00:04:40,800
desire to save those people, his compassion for people. We

80
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,959
should be entering into that journey with him so that

81
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,600
we can be of service to the people that matter

82
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,439
to him. For the things that matter to him, he says,

83
00:04:52,519 --> 00:04:56,199
tarry ye here and watch are you tarrying and watching

84
00:04:56,199 --> 00:04:59,319
in twenty twenty four, and the Bible continues verse thirty five.

85
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,439
And he went far forward a little and fell on

86
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,480
the ground. It wasn't that he was doing it for effect.

87
00:05:04,519 --> 00:05:07,600
Nobody was playing the ham and B three organ. Nobody

88
00:05:07,639 --> 00:05:10,839
slapped him in his forehead. Nobody said some rhythmic words,

89
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,079
and then he started shaking and quaking and dropped to

90
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,040
the ground. He dropped to the ground because he was heavy,

91
00:05:16,319 --> 00:05:19,160
he was burdened, He was sorrowful, even to the point

92
00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:22,639
of death. And so he falls to the ground and

93
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,839
prayed that if it were possible, have you ever fallen

94
00:05:26,959 --> 00:05:30,360
to the ground in sorrow, fall into the ground in

95
00:05:30,399 --> 00:05:34,560
submission to God's will, fallen to the ground because you

96
00:05:34,759 --> 00:05:38,639
know your need for God? And he says, he prays,

97
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:43,720
if it were possible, that hour might pass from him.

98
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,120
Have you asked God to take away your burden? Take

99
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,800
away your trial, take away the difficulty that is facing you.

100
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,480
Take away the fact that you don't have as much

101
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,319
money as you need. There's more month than money. Take

102
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,199
away the trials that you're going through in your marriage.

103
00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:02,480
Have you ever asked God to take away that cancer

104
00:06:02,519 --> 00:06:05,720
that is eating your flesh at this very moment, and

105
00:06:05,759 --> 00:06:08,399
you're wondering if God is listening. Have you ever been

106
00:06:08,439 --> 00:06:11,879
in a situation when you ask God to please, can

107
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,480
you do something for me, if it's possible, if it's possible,

108
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,120
take it away? And he said verse thirty six, ah Ba, Father,

109
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,759
all things are possible. You see, he said, if it's possible,

110
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,399
will you take it away? And then he says with you,

111
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,240
all things are possible. We didn't say that last Sabbath.

112
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,279
Ah all things are possible. I know that you can

113
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,560
do this, take it away, take this cup from me.

114
00:06:37,879 --> 00:06:41,439
But if I'm missing something in this scenario, Father, Ahba,

115
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,639
if I'm missing something in this scenario where I'm going

116
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,399
to have to go through this financial burden and trial

117
00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:49,560
for the moment, I'm gonna have to go through the

118
00:06:49,639 --> 00:06:52,439
loss of someone who's very close to me. I'm gonna

119
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,839
have to go through the pain of this injury. I'm

120
00:06:54,879 --> 00:06:57,319
gonna have to go through the trial of working with

121
00:06:57,959 --> 00:07:00,920
church people who seem not to be connected with God.

122
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,519
And I'm wondering every day, what in the world am

123
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,279
I doing here? What am I doing here in this

124
00:07:06,319 --> 00:07:10,319
situation when we're all supposed to be pressing together, pressing together,

125
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,959
pressing together. If you could let this cut pass from me, Father,

126
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:21,720
please do so. Nevertheless, Father, not what I will, because

127
00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:24,079
there are times that you're doing things, Father that I

128
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,160
don't understand. Nevertheless, Father, not as I will. There are

129
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,160
times that you are perfecting my character. Talking about me, now, y'all,

130
00:07:32,199 --> 00:07:36,480
you should be talking about you. Nevertheless, you are using

131
00:07:36,519 --> 00:07:40,240
my situation for others to see how they can overcome

132
00:07:40,279 --> 00:07:43,480
to because you trust me, like Job. You trust me

133
00:07:43,959 --> 00:07:46,279
like David when he was losing his son after he

134
00:07:46,399 --> 00:07:51,759
had disobeyed God and had the Bethsheba and Uriah incident. Nevertheless,

135
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,319
not what I will, but what thou wilt. And he

136
00:07:56,399 --> 00:07:58,920
cometh and findeth them sleeping. And they should have been

137
00:07:58,959 --> 00:08:01,720
watching and praying when they should have been holding him up,

138
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:04,839
when they should have been supporting Jesus, when they should

139
00:08:04,839 --> 00:08:08,360
have been counting the cost of him losing faith, the

140
00:08:08,439 --> 00:08:11,720
counting the cost of him failing at his mission, counting

141
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,839
the cost like if Jesus breaks, we're all dead, and

142
00:08:14,879 --> 00:08:18,160
everybody who's ever lived or ever will live, is dead.

143
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,439
They did not count the cost. He came and he

144
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,959
found them sleeping, and he said unto to Peter Simon,

145
00:08:25,439 --> 00:08:30,560
sleepest thou it's incredulous. Sleepest thou couldest thou not watch

146
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,440
one hour? What is one hour when all of humanity

147
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,879
is hanging in the balance. What is one hour when

148
00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:40,440
your friend, who is also your savior and your creator

149
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:47,159
in his humanity, is weakening, he's having difficulty. You're not there.

150
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,919
You can't pray just for an hour, Peter, not one hour?

151
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,320
Watch ye and pray lets ye. Now Jesus puts it

152
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,440
on them, enter into temptation. The spirit is truly ready.

153
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,559
But the flesh, yes, you talk a good gang, Peter.

154
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,519
You said you won't deny me. You talk a good game.

155
00:09:05,159 --> 00:09:08,200
You stand there with your sword. I'm seeing into the future.

156
00:09:08,279 --> 00:09:11,360
Now ah, you say with your mouth all of the

157
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,960
right things, But your flesh is actually weak Verse thirty nine.

158
00:09:15,039 --> 00:09:17,919
And again he went away and prayed and spake the

159
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,879
same words. And when he had returned, he found them

160
00:09:20,919 --> 00:09:24,279
all asleep again, for their eyes were heavy. Sometimes the

161
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,720
devil will fan you to sleep. Brothers and sisters wake up.

162
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,679
Neither wish they what to answer him. And he came

163
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,279
a third time and says, sleep on. Now take your rest.

164
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:39,320
It is enough. The hour is come. The son of

165
00:09:39,399 --> 00:09:43,159
Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of sinners.

166
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: What would have been your response? Thanks for joining us listening. Friends.

167
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,480
