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 --> 00:00:15,080
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 --> 00:00:33,079
author speaker Elle David Harris.

10
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,759
Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning, Good morning. It is Sabbath. It's

11
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,759
May three, twenty twenty five. Hello, my name is El

12
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,240
David Harris. I am your host, and this is your

13
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,960
Daily Portion where we give you God's Word every single day,

14
00:00:46,119 --> 00:00:49,439
and today is no exception. We are continuing in our

15
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,200
lesson study series how to Study Bible Prophecy. Our caption

16
00:00:54,359 --> 00:01:02,920
four this Sabbath morning is understanding Sacrifice under Sacrifice. Before

17
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,920
we get into that, I'd like to say welcome to

18
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,879
everyone joining us, especially those joining us for the very

19
00:01:07,879 --> 00:01:10,480
first time. I'm asking you to please go over to

20
00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:14,560
your Daily Portion dot com. Please join our online community.

21
00:01:14,879 --> 00:01:17,599
Please please let us know where you are in the

22
00:01:17,599 --> 00:01:21,159
world at your Daily Portion dot com. This is one

23
00:01:21,159 --> 00:01:26,400
of the ways that we continue to build faith and fellowship.

24
00:01:26,719 --> 00:01:29,959
Let's go ahead and pray, and then we will get underway.

25
00:01:30,519 --> 00:01:33,319
Father and Heaven. Thank you for this new Sabbath morning

26
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,640
and for the opportunity we have to not just open

27
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:41,000
your word, but begin to live by your spirit through

28
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,120
your word. I pray God that you will give us

29
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,680
the fullness of your Holy Spirit. Help us not only

30
00:01:46,719 --> 00:01:53,480
to just understand the prophecies the sacrifices, but become living sacrifices,

31
00:01:53,519 --> 00:01:58,200
holy and acceptable unto you. Then Jesus name, I pray

32
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:06,120
Amen day Man again understanding sacrifice. This makes me think

33
00:02:06,159 --> 00:02:08,759
I actually wrote it in my notes. This makes me think,

34
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,280
what shall I render to God? For all of his

35
00:02:12,479 --> 00:02:15,639
blessings or his benefits? Do you remember that him? What

36
00:02:15,759 --> 00:02:18,599
shall I render? And in fact, there are some other

37
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:24,000
Christian songs that are based on that same concept. What

38
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:29,599
shall I render for all of his blessings all of

39
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:36,159
his benefits? Because Jesus gave everything. Jesus gave everything for me,

40
00:02:37,039 --> 00:02:42,039
He gave everything for you. The risk was incalculable when

41
00:02:42,159 --> 00:02:45,280
Jesus Christ took on the form of a human being.

42
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,759
After four thousand years, the human race had been degraded

43
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:55,719
by sin Jesus coming into human flesh and living the

44
00:02:55,879 --> 00:03:00,319
life that we should be living, dying the death that

45
00:03:00,479 --> 00:03:04,960
we deserve in order for us to receive the benefits

46
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:11,280
the eternity, the power that he deserves. Let's go ahead

47
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,159
and just jump right into the Bible Book of Revelation,

48
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,039
Revelation chapter five, and I admit this is one of

49
00:03:19,039 --> 00:03:24,240
my favorite scenes in the scriptures. Chapters four and five

50
00:03:24,479 --> 00:03:30,240
are among my favorite scenes. And the Bible reads and

51
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,479
they sang a new song saying you are worthy to

52
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,919
take the scroll and to open its seals, for you

53
00:03:38,039 --> 00:03:44,159
were slain, and ye have redeemed us to God by

54
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,680
your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people

55
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,039
and nation. This is coming in from Revelation chapter five,

56
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,879
verse nine. And in this scene it is a worship scene,

57
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,439
a worshipful scene in heaven, and there are number of

58
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,599
different kinds of beings there represent it. But the challenge

59
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,479
is that there is a book with seals, seven seals

60
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,719
that nobody can touch, nobody can look therein, nobody can

61
00:04:14,759 --> 00:04:19,480
look there on, and there is weeping in heaven to say,

62
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,639
but who is worthy to open up this book and

63
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,240
the seals and to take make a long story short,

64
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,839
because we're not focusing focusing there. The Bible says that

65
00:04:29,959 --> 00:04:34,319
Jesus laid hold after there was an announcement like don't

66
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,879
you worry, fret not, don't worry, don't worry. The lamb,

67
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,439
the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, the one who gave

68
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,680
his life for human beings. He is worthy not only

69
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,519
to look thereon, not only to look therein, not only

70
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,879
to unseal, but to take that out, take that out

71
00:04:52,959 --> 00:04:58,040
of the Father's hand, and now there is rejoicing and

72
00:04:58,199 --> 00:05:03,079
worship in the heavenly scene. What is identified as making

73
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,199
him worthy, the fact that he gave his life worthy

74
00:05:06,319 --> 00:05:10,120
is the lamb worthy. Worthy is the lamb that was slain,

75
00:05:10,759 --> 00:05:15,759
and he gave himself for every human being from every tribe, tongue, kindred,

76
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,160
nation and people. And by the way the universe, the

77
00:05:19,319 --> 00:05:24,879
universe benefits those heavenly beings who never fell into sin.

78
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,439
They benefit those beings that we don't really know about

79
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,360
too much about that are from other planets. And I'm

80
00:05:32,399 --> 00:05:36,399
not talking about Martians. I'm talking about The Bible says

81
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:42,240
that Jesus created the world whoever those beings are, maybe

82
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,600
we could see a representation of that in the Bible

83
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,519
Book of Job. But whoever the beings are, in the

84
00:05:48,639 --> 00:05:53,040
expanse of the universe that God created, these intelligent beings,

85
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:58,720
all are benefiting because of what Jesus did. Okay, I

86
00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:01,000
wish I had the time, but just continue from the

87
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:06,439
lesson writer. When Jesus came toward him, John the Baptist declared,

88
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:11,040
behold the Lamb of God. This was when John was

89
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,759
in the Jordan River. This is fulfillment of prophecy during

90
00:06:15,759 --> 00:06:19,199
the seventy Weeks of Years prophecies in the Book of Daniel.

91
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,079
The Bible says that when Jesus was approaching the spot

92
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:27,560
where where John was baptizing, he said, behold the Lamb

93
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,759
of God, which taketh away the sins of the world.

94
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,839
In John chapter one and verse twenty nine, so something

95
00:06:35,079 --> 00:06:41,040
someone has to die, So John makes allusion to those sacrifices,

96
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,360
the lamb, the lamb, the lamb of God. Okay, the

97
00:06:44,439 --> 00:06:47,639
Lamb of God. They were accustomed to giving sacrifices, but

98
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:52,519
this lamb is taking away the sins of the world.

99
00:06:53,319 --> 00:06:58,560
So no normal animal sacrifices as represented in Leviticus, chapters

100
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,920
one through seven. None of those sacrifices are sufficient to

101
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,439
destroy sin in a human life. None of them are

102
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:10,759
sufficient to pay the penalty of those sins. But they

103
00:07:10,839 --> 00:07:16,839
were representative of someone, someone who took the responsibility. It

104
00:07:16,959 --> 00:07:22,759
is a godly lesson of God taking responsibility for sin

105
00:07:23,279 --> 00:07:25,839
so that he could save you, he could save me.

106
00:07:26,399 --> 00:07:29,560
And so we're going now to a few lessons. Let's

107
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,920
see how many we can share about Jesus being the

108
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,480
sacrificial lamb and sacrifices. Number one, recognize the significance of

109
00:07:40,519 --> 00:07:43,920
the sacrifice. We cannot just brush by it. We can't

110
00:07:43,959 --> 00:07:46,759
just run by it. We can't see that scene in

111
00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:49,000
John chapter one and verse twenty nine and say, oh,

112
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,560
that was wonderful. It was a historic event. And John

113
00:07:51,639 --> 00:07:54,279
knew who he was based on filling the blank and

114
00:07:54,399 --> 00:07:55,160
he announced it.

115
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:55,319
Speaker 1: No.

116
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,959
Speaker 2: The sacrificial system culminating in Christ as the Lamb of God.

117
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:05,319
God teaches us the cost of sin and the depth

118
00:08:05,839 --> 00:08:13,360
of God's love. What in the world is the weight

119
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:18,519
of sin? If it required the life of the one

120
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:23,040
who is my life, Jesus Christ, would you get that?

121
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,560
How incredible, how terrible is sin that it would require

122
00:08:28,639 --> 00:08:30,959
the life of Jesus Christ in order to save me.

123
00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:33,120
And so what I want you to do is to

124
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:40,159
meditate regularly on Revelation chapter five and John chapter one,

125
00:08:40,279 --> 00:08:45,440
especially verse twenty nine, to begin to become to imbibe

126
00:08:45,519 --> 00:08:50,000
the reality of what it took to save me and

127
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,600
how worthy Jesus is. Now there is the infinite love

128
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:59,159
of God. The ultimate sacrifice of Christ is a direct

129
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,960
manifest station of the love of God. Remember, for God

130
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,600
so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son,

131
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,120
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have

132
00:09:10,519 --> 00:09:14,000
everlasting life. Yes, okay, And so what we want to

133
00:09:14,039 --> 00:09:17,600
do also is read from first John, chapter four and

134
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,360
verse ten, furthering the thought herein is love, not that

135
00:09:21,399 --> 00:09:25,279
we loved God, but that He loved us and sent

136
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,159
his son to be a propitiation for our sins. And

137
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,039
of course we have gratitude. I have seven things that

138
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,120
you should keep in mind I should keep in mind.

139
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,879
Ask for it inside of the community, and I'll share

140
00:09:37,919 --> 00:09:40,639
that list with you. Make it a great rest of

141
00:09:40,639 --> 00:09:42,399
your sabbath. Peace.

142
00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:48,519
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening. Friends. Always remember we cannot

143
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,639
live by bread alone, but by every word that comes

144
00:09:51,639 --> 00:09:54,720
from the mouth of God. This has been your daily

145
00:09:54,759 --> 00:10:00,279
portion with EL David Harris. Make it a great day, yeah,
