Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too much,
because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy for
today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect yesterday's
portion of heavenly manna the word of God to keep
us through today's challenges. On this program, we are going
to change all of that. Let's experience God's words today
and receive the power we need to live healthy, vibrant lives.
Welcome to Your Daily Portion with your host, author speaker,
Elle David Harris.
Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning, Good morning. It is Thursday, May one,
twenty twenty five. Hello, my name is El David Harris.
I am your host, and this is your Daily Portion
where we give you God's word every single day, and
today is no exception. We are continuing in our lesson
study series how to study Bible Prophecy, and our caption
for today is Prophesy Again, Prophesy Again. We'll get into
that in just a moment, but first I'd like to
say welcome to everyone joining us, especially those joining us
for the very first time. I'm asking you to please
go over to your Daily Portion dot com. Please pick
up this your Daily Portion Life application guide. Look up
if you're not looking up. Go ahead, look up on
your screen. You see it there, go ahead and pick
that up. You can download it or buy the physical
copy or anywhere in the world. Really at to your
Daily Portion dot com. Please join the community though, because
there are things, especially as we discuss today, that will
take entirely too long that we won't be able to cover.
And if you come into the community, then we can
go back and forth, back and forth until God gives
us clarity. Okay, at your Daily Portion dot com. This
is one of the ways that we continue to build
faith and fellowship. Let's go ahead and pray, and then
we will get underway. Father, Please give us your wisdom.
In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen and amen again. Listen.
I am going to if I can, I'm going to
get to page ninety seven in our Life Application Guide
and talk about the Relationships element. Okay, if not, then
you'll do it. You'll pick one of the four that
applies best for you today. But that's my intent. Let's
see what we can do with the time. And so
in Revelation chapter ten, we find some very interesting truths
that we will do a little bit of unpacking for. Again,
we don't have that kind of time. But the Bible
reads beginning of verse one, and I saw another mighty angel.
What did he see? Another mighty angel? So this angel
is distinguished from every other messenger, every other angel that
had been revealed up until this moment in the revelation
of Jesus Christ. And the Bible says, he came down
from heaven clothed with a cloud, and a rainbow was
upon his head. Yes, do we see rainbows in the scriptures?
Do we see rainbows in the scriptures? And of course
you should be nodding your head. If you're driving, you're
nodding your head. Yes, we see rainbows in the scripture.
And the rainbow in Noah's time represented what represented what covenant.
God gave covenant to his people, symbolized it by a
bow in the sky. And I'll just leave that right there.
And if we had the time, we could unpack the
colors of this rainbow. And those colors are actually in
the sanctuary, but not the woman writing on the scarlet
colored beast. The woman missed the color. But I wish
I had the time. We just don't. The Bible says.
Also his face were was as it were the sun
Bible says the sun and his feet as the pillars
a fire. And so immediately my mind is saying, is
this Jesus? Is it Jesus? And likely you're wondering, is
it Jesus? Some commentators have gotten tripped up and said
it is in fact Jesus. But let me just say
here that this angel, this unique angel, the angel that
we've not seen yet in the revelation, is coming in
the authority of the one who created all things. And
in John chapter one, Hebrews chapter one, and some other
places in scripture we see that Jesus Christ is the
one who did this. And so this angel comes in
the authority of Jesus to represent his voice very clearly,
But is indeed an angel messenger and not a representative
or a representation of Jesus. This is not symbolic in
this case, okay. And so the Bible continues. And he
had in his hand a little book open, and he
set his foot upon the sea, and he set his
other foot, his left foot upon the earth. So the
right one is on the sea, the left one is
on the earth. And he cried with a loud voice,
as when a lion roars. The Bible says that Jesus
is the mighty lion of the tribe of Judas. So
this angel, this messenger, is in such the authority of
Jesus Christ that he roars like Jesus would roar his messe.
His message is, in fact the message of Jesus Christ
to those who are in the populace and those who
are in sparsely populated areas. Everybody is to get these messages.
And then the Bible says, and then when he had cried,
he uttered seven thunders and uttered their seven voices. And
verse four. When the seven thunders had uttered their voices,
I was about to write. And I'm like, yes, I'm
pulling up. I'm pulling up. I'm listening. What are you
going to teach us? God? What are you saying to us? God?
Tell us what the thunders said. I was about to
write and heard a voice from heaven saying, unto me,
seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and
write them not. And so we see that God revealed
these voices to a human being, John in this case.
But for whatever his reasons are, ha those mysteries that
he has revealed to John, he is not revealing to
the rest of us, seal those up, don't write them.
In verse five, and the Angel which I saw stand
upon the sea and upon the earth, lifted up his
hand toward Heaven, and swear by him that liveth forever
and ever, who created heaven, Jesus did that. And the
things which are therein Jesus did that. And the earth
Jesus did that. And the things which are therein Jesus
did that. And the sea and the things which are
therein Jesus did that. That there should be time no longer.
Let me just deal with this very quickly. So until
eighteen forty four, God had been giving time prophecies. We
knew exactly when Jesus was going to be baptized. We
knew exactly when there was going to be a decree
to rebuild Jerusalem. We knew exactly when Jesus was going
to die. We knew or give his life. We knew
exactly when Stephen was going to be stoned. And then
that fulfillment of time for God's people was right there.
We knew exactly how long and when the persecution would start.
For twelve hundred and sixty long years, when this persecution
of God's people by the so called church would take place.
We know when the preadvent judgment would begin in eighteen
forty four. But now from the moment of this proclamation,
there will be no more time that is accounted for prophecy.
So if people are lying to you and telling you
that they know when Jesus is coming back based on
some sixes and sevens and some other creative stuff that
they are gathering from the news, listen to me, Listen
to the scriptures, listen to the voice of God through
the Angel. Time will be no longer. You can't do
that anymore. So keep it pushing, be as people who
are prepared, as Jesus is approaching, approaching, so that we
can be saved. Okay, no more days counting, But in
the days of the voice of the seventh Angel, he
shall begin to sound. The mystery of God should be finished.
As he hath declared to his servants the prophets, and
the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again,
And he said, go and take the little book which
is open in thine hand of the Angel, and standeth
upon the sea and upon the earth. And I went
and unto the Angel and said unto him, give me
the little book, and he said, take it, eat it up,
and it shall be make thy belly bitter, but it
shall be in thy mouth as sweet as honey. And
I took the little book out of the angel's hand,
I ate it up, and it was in my mouth
sweet as honey. That is the truth of God, the
message for this day. God is giving us this message
for us to eat it up and to share it.
But as we eat it up, and it is sweet
to us, what a great message, what great tidings. Ah
As I had eaten it, it was bitter in my belly.
Sometimes God gives us messages that are so important that
they're sweet to us. But as we share it, sometimes
persecution comes. But He will be with us all the way.
Speaker 1: Through to the end. Thanks for joining us listening.
Speaker 2: Friends.
Speaker 1: Always remember we cannot live by bread alone, but by
every word that comes from the mouth of God. This
has been your daily portion with el David Harris. Make
it a great day. Yeah,
