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
author speaker Elle David Harris.

10
00:00:33,119 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning, Good morning. It is Thursday, September twelve,

11
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,960
twenty twenty four. Hello, my name is El David Harris.

12
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,479
I am your host, and this is your Daily Portion

13
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,359
where we give you God's word every single day and

14
00:00:45,399 --> 00:00:48,679
today is no exception. We are continuing in our Lesson

15
00:00:48,719 --> 00:00:51,479
study series through the Book of Mark, and our caption

16
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,600
for today are Who Are You? Is? Who are You?

17
00:00:55,399 --> 00:00:58,119
Who Are You? We'll get into that in just a moment,

18
00:00:58,159 --> 00:00:59,640
but first I'd like to say welcome to you and

19
00:00:59,679 --> 00:01:02,479
ask you to go over to your Daily Portion dot com.

20
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,840
Please join our online community, pick up the Your Daily

21
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,840
Portion book, and let us know where you are in

22
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,359
the world. At your Daily Portion dot com. This is

23
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,159
one of the ways that we continue to build faith

24
00:01:15,519 --> 00:01:18,920
and fellowship. Let's go ahead and pray, and then we

25
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,200
will get underway. Father and Heaven, Thank you for giving

26
00:01:22,239 --> 00:01:24,680
us this new day. Thank you for loving us and

27
00:01:24,879 --> 00:01:28,280
protecting us thus far in the week. Please help us

28
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,239
to know our identity in You. Help us never to

29
00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:35,920
forsake you and flee. Help us to be strong in

30
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,280
these last days and not weak like those disciples of

31
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,239
yours were. And I know and know that some people

32
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,519
are confused and think that we have to do the

33
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,040
wrong that those men did. But God, you have shown us,

34
00:01:48,079 --> 00:01:51,400
even in their lives, that you are able to keep

35
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,359
us strong, to keep us from falling. And I pray

36
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,200
that we will accept this in Jesus' name, I pray

37
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:02,519
Amen and Amen again. I need to say something to

38
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:07,920
us all. I don't know, because you represent countries all

39
00:02:07,959 --> 00:02:12,360
over this world, on almost every continent, and so your

40
00:02:12,479 --> 00:02:16,360
mindsets may be different than where I happen to be.

41
00:02:17,039 --> 00:02:20,000
But I find that when God's people where I am

42
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:25,039
living come together and we discuss these things, we say

43
00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:29,840
we're no better than them, Meaning when the disciples made

44
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,680
those terrible errors, when the children of Israel, God's people

45
00:02:34,879 --> 00:02:38,599
up until Jesus was born on planet Earth, had made

46
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,719
those terrible errors. I hear us constantly drilling into each

47
00:02:42,719 --> 00:02:46,199
other's minds that we are just like them, and I'm like,

48
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:51,560
hmm hmm, Well that doesn't have to be the case.

49
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:53,520
I'm going to give you an example. In just a moment.

50
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,240
We need to transform, We need our mindsets transformed. And

51
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,639
this may be the moment for a lot of you

52
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,319
and so and so. Yes, they the disciples forsook Jesus

53
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,199
and fled. Yes, that first generation of freed slaves out

54
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:14,680
of Egyptian captivity, God's people, all of them, Aaron Moses included,

55
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,080
died in the wilderness because of their lack of faith.

56
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,520
And if you think like me, and you're listening keenly,

57
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,879
there are one or two of you that are saying, wait, wait, wait, wait,

58
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,199
not everybody, not so fast, not so fast. That second

59
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,919
generation didn't die. Okay, that's good, that's good. Those children

60
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,599
who were twenty years and younger at the time of

61
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,639
the exodus, they didn't die. Okay, that's true. But there's

62
00:03:36,639 --> 00:03:39,919
somebody else out there that's saying, not so fast, Dave,

63
00:03:40,039 --> 00:03:44,039
you're talking fast. Ld you're talking fast. Slow down a

64
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:50,599
little bit. Joshua and Caleb were faithful. Joshua and Caleb

65
00:03:51,199 --> 00:03:56,680
were faithful. Hmm. And those children of Israel, they did

66
00:03:56,719 --> 00:03:59,840
not die. Those were the two men that lived and

67
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:04,039
saw the promised land from that first generation of people.

68
00:04:04,439 --> 00:04:10,000
And what this says to me, Enoch, Elisha, Joshua, Caleb,

69
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,280
can I continue, Abigail? Can I continue? Job? And so

70
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:20,199
many more? Anna holda huh. These are people, Hilkiah. These

71
00:04:20,199 --> 00:04:24,720
are people who demonstrated Daniel Hannah, Nayah Miche yale as Ariah.

72
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:30,079
These people demonstrated the kind of character that God Joseph

73
00:04:30,199 --> 00:04:34,560
h the son of Yakub Israel. Ah. Yeah, these people

74
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,800
demonstrated what it's like to actually yield our will to God.

75
00:04:38,519 --> 00:04:40,920
And so we have to stop giving each other the

76
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,000
complex to think that we have to be like Judas,

77
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,759
we have to be like the rest of the disciples

78
00:04:46,759 --> 00:04:49,399
that ran away from Jesus. I just gave you multiple

79
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,680
examples of people who decided that no turning back was

80
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:58,040
their motto. They decided that they would follow Jesus. Joshua

81
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,240
as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

82
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,480
And he actually served the Lord the prophet Samuel, he

83
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,279
served the Lord. I can go on and on and on.

84
00:05:08,399 --> 00:05:12,879
Niah Mayah he served the Lord. Isaiah learned to serve

85
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,519
the Lord. So we need to be on the side

86
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,319
of those individuals. I know we can all repent. Thank God,

87
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,959
they forsook him and fled and then most of them repented.

88
00:05:23,079 --> 00:05:25,879
Judas didn't. And we can be like that. But I

89
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,040
just need you to know that there are people who

90
00:05:28,199 --> 00:05:32,720
stand on on the principles of God ten toes down,

91
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,720
who don't rest on our laurels. We don't trust in ourselves,

92
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,879
we don't lean to our own understanding, but we do

93
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,279
trust God to the degree what degree, Dave? We trust

94
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,720
God to the degree that these men and women demonstrated

95
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,800
that they would be holy no matter what happened. And

96
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,959
if you're living in the last days, that is where

97
00:05:52,959 --> 00:05:56,360
you and I must can and will come to if

98
00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,000
we're God's children. And so stop preaching into your brain

99
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,040
that you have to do the wrong thing. Stop that

100
00:06:03,519 --> 00:06:06,000
we're no better than them. Well, it's not about being better.

101
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,759
It's about being submitted to God's will. And God has

102
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,480
people who will not bow, and I want you to

103
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,360
be one of those people. Every person who's under the

104
00:06:14,399 --> 00:06:17,199
sound of my voice. You're on radio, television, you are

105
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,240
on a podcast, you're on YouTube, you're in social media,

106
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,160
and somebody may have shared this with you, and this

107
00:06:23,199 --> 00:06:25,680
is your first time. I need you to resolve today,

108
00:06:25,759 --> 00:06:29,199
on this day, on September twelve, twenty twenty four, that

109
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,120
you will stand and you will not fall, you will

110
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,839
not crumble. You will cash in on the promise where

111
00:06:34,959 --> 00:06:38,759
Judas or Jude recorded now unto him that is able

112
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,759
to keep you from falling and to present you faultless

113
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:44,480
before the Father with exceeding joy. You will be one

114
00:06:44,519 --> 00:06:47,439
of those people in these last days. I hope this

115
00:06:47,519 --> 00:06:50,680
is clear to you. I hope this is clear to you.

116
00:06:50,759 --> 00:06:54,360
And so now Jesus is being carted from mock trial

117
00:06:54,439 --> 00:06:59,199
to mock trial in Mark chapter fourteen, beginning at verse sixty,

118
00:07:00,079 --> 00:07:03,160
and he's going from place to place and place to

119
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,279
place in these men, these wicked men verse sixty. And

120
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,439
the high priests stood up in the midst and act

121
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:13,319
Jesus saying, answerest thou nothing against those accusations that they

122
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,720
were throwing and hurling at him? What is it that

123
00:07:16,759 --> 00:07:20,000
these witness against thee? But he Jesus held his peace,

124
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,959
and he answered nothing. You see, Jesus had no reason

125
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,319
to defend himself. His character and connection to God his

126
00:07:27,439 --> 00:07:32,319
Father was defense enough. His character, the manifestation of the

127
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,240
fullness of God bodily was enough to answer the claims.

128
00:07:36,279 --> 00:07:39,240
He answered nothing. Again, the High Priest asked him and said,

129
00:07:39,319 --> 00:07:41,720
unto him, art thou the Christ, the son of the Blessed.

130
00:07:41,759 --> 00:07:44,720
See they should have been They should have been studying

131
00:07:44,759 --> 00:07:48,360
the Bible, like they should have been studying in Daniel,

132
00:07:48,399 --> 00:07:51,920
where he would manifest as the anointed One. They should

133
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,759
have seen the works and examined the works on the

134
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,920
merits of the work's sake, to know that he was

135
00:07:57,959 --> 00:08:01,399
indeed Jesus, the anointed one Messiah who was to come.

136
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:04,680
Are you the son of the Blessing? He said, I am,

137
00:08:04,879 --> 00:08:08,279
and ye shall see the son of Man sitting on

138
00:08:08,319 --> 00:08:11,199
the right hand of power and coming in the clouds

139
00:08:11,199 --> 00:08:14,240
of heaven. And the High Priest rent his clothes and said,

140
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,480
Jesus was prophesying. By the way in that moment. Now

141
00:08:17,519 --> 00:08:20,680
we see Jesus is prophesying about what is written of

142
00:08:20,759 --> 00:08:23,600
now in Revelation chapter one and verse seven. Them also

143
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,000
that pierced him, They will see Jesus coming in the

144
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,160
clouds of heaven, and the High Priest rent his clothes.

145
00:08:30,199 --> 00:08:32,440
When the high priest should have worshiped him. The High

146
00:08:32,519 --> 00:08:36,480
Priest rent his clothes and said, what need we any

147
00:08:36,519 --> 00:08:40,200
further of witnesses, And then of course he says that

148
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,279
Jesus blasphemes, and on and on, and then they start

149
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:47,159
to beat Jesus. Are you serious, the one who came

150
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,919
to save us from our sins? Are you serious? The

151
00:08:49,919 --> 00:08:53,039
one who created us, the one who gave all so

152
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:57,120
that we could be saved. They aren't beating him, Yeah,

153
00:08:57,159 --> 00:09:00,480
they're beating him about the head and face. Of course,

154
00:09:00,639 --> 00:09:04,720
Peter he cursed and said bad words to distance himself

155
00:09:04,759 --> 00:09:07,519
from Jesus, who was taking a beating that Peter should

156
00:09:07,519 --> 00:09:10,759
have taken, that we all should have taken. And Jesus

157
00:09:10,879 --> 00:09:14,159
was preparing himself to give his life for us and Peter,

158
00:09:14,519 --> 00:09:16,879
and Peter's saying bad words and running away, and all

159
00:09:16,879 --> 00:09:19,279
of the rest of the disciples have already forsaken him,

160
00:09:19,279 --> 00:09:21,919
and Judas betrayed him, and Judas is is going to

161
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,080
go ahead and kill himself later. And Jesus, with all

162
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,360
of what's hanging and weighing in the balance. Jesus stood

163
00:09:28,639 --> 00:09:32,240
with his eyes focused. He knew exactly what he came

164
00:09:32,279 --> 00:09:35,879
here to do, and he came here to save you.

165
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,720
Who are you When the question is asked, are you

166
00:09:38,799 --> 00:09:40,840
a child of God? Are you going to run away

167
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,559
from Jesus too? You get a great day peace.
