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,

17
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,000
sound exciting, but that's okay. We'll get into the word

18

in a second. Joshua the type somebody type in the chat.

19
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,799
What the word means? What does type mean? We've been

20
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,879
talking about it for the last couple of days. Before

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,359
we get into that, I'd like to just say welcome

00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:12,280
Jesus name. I pray, Amen and Amen again. Joshua the

37
00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:15,680
type Okay, So I'm going to answer my own question

38
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,319
when I asked you type it in the chat. I'm

39
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,960
going to answer my own question by going right into

40
00:02:22,039 --> 00:02:26,280
our lesson number one. Lesson number one is Joshua pointed

41
00:02:26,319 --> 00:02:29,479
to Christ. So we know the type now in this

42
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,759
case points forward. In this case to Christ. Joshua pointed

43
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:39,479
to Christ as what in this case as the great Deliverer.

44
00:02:41,039 --> 00:02:45,639
Joshua pointed to Christ as the great Deliverer. Now we

45
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,000
go into the Bible book of Deuteronomy, chapter eighteen, Deuteronomy

46
00:02:50,319 --> 00:02:53,919
chapter eighteen, and I will read verse fifteen, and the

47
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:58,520
Bible reads, the Lord thy God will raise up unto

48
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:03,960
thee a prophet from the midst of thee of thy brethren,

49
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:10,120
like unto me. Unto him, ye shall hearken or listen?

50
00:03:10,199 --> 00:03:14,800
You must listen to him. And so the Hebrew word

51
00:03:14,879 --> 00:03:19,479
for prophet in this case nav it means one who

52
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:27,520
speaks under divine inspiration for God. And so Moses foretold

53
00:03:27,759 --> 00:03:32,639
that a prophet like unto himself, who would reveal God's truth.

54
00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:39,360
Joshua partially fulfilled this type by leading God's people into Canaan.

55
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,520
But we know, we know the one who is God

56
00:03:42,599 --> 00:03:46,800
with us, the one who is what God is, Jesus Christ,

57
00:03:46,919 --> 00:03:52,039
the anointed One, fulfilled it completely by leading all of

58
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:57,520
humanity into salvation. Remember, there were disciples who were like, Ah,

59
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,680
show us the Father, and it sufficeth Us, and He's like,

60
00:04:00,759 --> 00:04:02,639
but how long have I been with you? And you

61
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,520
still say show me the Father, like I'm the revelation

62
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:11,439
of the Father, and so Joshua was a manifestation of this,

63
00:04:11,719 --> 00:04:17,639
and the ministry of Jesus delivering people from sin is

64
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,399
seen very clearly in Joshua's life, as he delivered the

65
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:27,199
people into the Promise, which was the same symbol leaving

66
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:31,160
Egypt bondage to sin going in to Canaan. He was

67
00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:34,879
the one who fulfilled that, and so our action step

68
00:04:34,959 --> 00:04:39,839
in this regard is to listen, intentionally, intentionally for Christ's

69
00:04:39,959 --> 00:04:45,839
voice through the scripture. Obedience begins by giving keen attention

70
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:51,160
to what God is already saying to your heart. One

71
00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:54,319
thing Eric Thomas often says is like when people say,

72
00:04:54,319 --> 00:04:56,240
well where do I begin? Where do I begin with

73
00:04:56,319 --> 00:04:59,720
a new paradigm, a new standard, or a new standard

74
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,079
of growth? He says, go with what God said to

75
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,759
you most recently. What did He just tell you to

76
00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:10,399
do that you have not done? Start there. Let's go

77
00:05:10,439 --> 00:05:16,319
to lesson number two. Jesus is the final prophet. Jesus

78
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,480
is the final prophet, and Moses illustrated this. The Bible

79
00:05:20,519 --> 00:05:24,959
reads here in Acts chapter three and verse twenty two.

80
00:05:25,199 --> 00:05:28,360
Acts chapter three and verse twenty two. For Moses truly

81
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:33,199
said to the fathers, a prophet shall the Lord your

82
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:37,759
God raise up unto you for your broth of your brethren,

83
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,759
like unto me. Him shall ye hear in all things

84
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:47,279
whatsoever he shall say to you. Okay, and so again

85
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,600
we have the same illustration. I'll read it from the

86
00:05:50,639 --> 00:05:54,560
New English translation. Moses said, the Lord your God will

87
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,120
raise up for you a prophet like me from among

88
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,079
your brothers. You must obey him and everything he tells you.

89
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,519
Doesn't that sound exactly like what the text said in Deuteronomy.

90
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:11,639
Of course, because the two testaments agree. The New Testament

91
00:06:11,759 --> 00:06:16,720
is the manifestation of what God taught in the Old Testament.

92
00:06:17,399 --> 00:06:21,439
Jesus is the fulfillment in the New Testament of what

93
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,879
the Old had pointed forward to. And so our action

94
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,839
step is to center our worship and faith on Jesus alone.

95
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,360
So we don't look at the symbols, we don't look

96
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,199
at the types so closely like the people did in

97
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,199
the past. We do for our learning, But our real focus,

98
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:43,199
since Jesus has already come, is Jesus. Let every teaching

99
00:06:43,639 --> 00:06:47,720
I'm talking about in twenty twenty five, every teaching, every promise,

100
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:56,040
every hope flow from your personal relationship with Him. Remember,

101
00:06:56,399 --> 00:06:59,079
the people were always looking forward to Christ, and since

102
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,040
Christ we looking forward to a closer relationship with him.

103
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,360
What else are we looking forward to the day that

104
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,600
that relationship culminates in our face to face communion with God.

105
00:07:11,079 --> 00:07:13,879
Like one thing that I do like about prayer or

106
00:07:13,959 --> 00:07:17,920
love about prayer is that it's us. God doesn't come

107
00:07:17,959 --> 00:07:20,959
down to us where prayer is concerned, but we are

108
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,160
elevated up to Him like we are now in his presence,

109
00:07:24,199 --> 00:07:28,000
seated with Christ Jesus in heavenly places, as we speak

110
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,360
to God as to a friend. But one of the

111
00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:32,800
things that I don't want to say, don't like, but

112
00:07:32,879 --> 00:07:35,839
it really just I wish we could get beyond this

113
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,199
and we will one day, is like I don't want

114
00:07:39,199 --> 00:07:42,079
to imagine. I don't want to experience God in this

115
00:07:42,199 --> 00:07:45,160
way forever, like I want to see him one day.

116
00:07:45,319 --> 00:07:47,040
I want to be able to shake his hand. I

117
00:07:47,079 --> 00:07:49,680
want to be able to give God a fist bump,

118
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,720
like I want to be able to hug Jesus and

119
00:07:51,759 --> 00:07:53,720
say thank you. You know what I mean. I want

120
00:07:53,759 --> 00:07:57,360
to greet them like how we greet people we love

121
00:07:57,399 --> 00:07:59,360
one another. I don't know how you greet people in

122
00:07:59,399 --> 00:08:03,680
your culture, but whatever way that we greet people in

123
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,319
our real lives. I want to be able to do that.

124
00:08:06,399 --> 00:08:08,680
I want to have a talk like Jesus. Can I

125
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,920
talk to you for a second. I was just thinking,

126
00:08:11,439 --> 00:08:13,959
you understand where I'm going, Like, so I want to

127
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,519
transcend one day and we know that that is when

128
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,399
Jesus returns. Transcend the prayer concept and get to the

129
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:26,079
genuine article. So every teaching, every promise, every hope needs

130
00:08:26,079 --> 00:08:32,399
to flow from our through our relationship with God. Okay,

131
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,519
And so we see that both Joshua and Moses foreshadowed

132
00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:39,799
or were a type of Jesus's mission. The Bible reads

133
00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:44,000
and Deuteronomy chapter thirty four, verses ten and eleven. And

134
00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:47,799
there arose not a prophet since in Israel, like unto Moses,

135
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,080
whom the Lord knew face to face. Did I not

136
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,720
just say that is our goal to get to God

137
00:08:54,039 --> 00:08:58,080
in our experience, face to face, in all the signs

138
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,200
and wonders which the Lord sent him to do in

139
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,159
the land of Egypt, to Pharaoh and to all his

140
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:09,600
servants and to all his land. And so this presence

141
00:09:09,639 --> 00:09:15,559
that's coming in from the text pronounced panim presence that

142
00:09:15,759 --> 00:09:21,320
word for face to face, meaning presence. Moses and Joshua

143
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:29,000
both knew God's presence. His presence in ways that anticipated Christ,

144
00:09:29,399 --> 00:09:35,399
the one who revealed God the Father perfectly. Through his presence,

145
00:09:35,519 --> 00:09:41,120
Jesus became the complete expression of divine power and redemption.

146
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,679
We're going to see him face to face one day.

147
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:44,759
Make it a great day.

148
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,519
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening. Friends. Always remember we cannot

149
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,600
live by bread alone, but by every word that comes

150
00:09:51,639 --> 00:09:54,720
from the mouth of God. This has been your daily

151
00:09:54,759 --> 00:10:00,279
portion with El David Harris. Make it a great day. Yeah,
