1
00:00:01,199 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: Most of us eat every day, some of us too much,

2
00:00:04,599 --> 00:00:07,879
because yesterday's food is not enough to supply energy for

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:12,240
today's needs. Why then, do some of us expect yesterday's

4
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,400
portion of heavenly manna, the word of God to keep

5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,199
us through today's challenges. On this program, we are going

6
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:23,280
to change all of that. Let's experience God's words today

7
00:00:23,559 --> 00:00:26,320
and receive the power we need to live healthy.

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:27,399
Speaker 2: Vibrant lives.

9
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,879
Speaker 1: Welcome to Your Daily Portion with your host, author speaker,

10
00:00:32,039 --> 00:00:33,079
Elle David Harris.

11
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,840
Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning, Good morning. It is Wednesday, March five,

12
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:41,119
twenty twenty five. Hello, my name is El David Harris.

13
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,640
I am your host, and this is your Daily Portion

14
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,640
where we give you God's word every single day, and

15
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:50,159
today is no exception. We are continuing in our Lesson

16
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,479
study series God's Love and Justice under the caption the

17
00:00:54,600 --> 00:01:01,280
Temporary Ruler of this World, The Temporary Ruler of this World.

18
00:01:01,679 --> 00:01:03,479
We'll get into that in just a moment, but first

19
00:01:03,479 --> 00:01:05,120
I'd like to say welcome to you and ask you

20
00:01:05,159 --> 00:01:07,680
to go over to your Daily Portion dot com. Please

22
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:16,079
your Daily Portion companion guide. We are testing it. This

23
00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:20,159
is our second quarter doing it, and you will determine

24
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,519
if we go beyond this quarter. Okay, So if you

25
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,799
do download it, you can download it or you pick

26
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,079
it up in paperback form anywhere in the world, then

27
00:01:30,439 --> 00:01:34,599
then absolutely we will continue. Otherwise we will say that

28
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,519
it is a wrap right there. Okay, this is one

29
00:01:37,519 --> 00:01:41,239
of the ways that we continue to build faith and fellowship.

30
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,280
Let's go ahead and pray and then we will get underway.

31
00:01:45,799 --> 00:01:48,200
Father in heaven, we do thank you for giving us

32
00:01:48,239 --> 00:01:52,359
this day and for the opportunity to open up your word.

33
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,359
And I'm asking you to please fill us with your

34
00:01:54,359 --> 00:01:57,560
holy spirit. Please teach us how to love you and

35
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,200
to serve you. Thank you for the opportun tunity, Father,

36
00:02:01,319 --> 00:02:04,319
to come together in this way. Help us to trust

37
00:02:04,719 --> 00:02:09,360
you and you alone in Jesus name, I pray, Amen

38
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:18,000
and Amen again the temporary ruler of this world. Okay.

39
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,360
So I'm going to just jump right in, jump right

40
00:02:21,439 --> 00:02:26,080
in to the Bible passages here that the lesson writer

41
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,639
highlighted first in John chapter twelve and verse thirty one.

42
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,439
The Bible reads, now is the judgment of this world?

43
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,919
Now shall the prince of this world be cast out?

44
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,520
So immediately we see that the prince of this world

45
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,439
is temporary. How do we know? Because the text says

46
00:02:48,439 --> 00:02:52,120
it right there, He's going to be cast out. Wait

47
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:55,360
a minute, cast out. I think we've heard this language before.

48
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,280
In Revelation chapter twelve, the Bible says that there was

49
00:02:58,319 --> 00:03:02,000
war in heaven. Yell and his angels fought against the

50
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:06,719
dragon and his angels, and the devil or the dragon

51
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:11,479
and his angels were cast out of heaven. There was

52
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,000
no place found for them. Then the Bible says, rejoice

53
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,479
ye heavens and those that dwell there, because the devil

54
00:03:19,759 --> 00:03:22,599
is gone, like he has been cast out. But then

55
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,560
the Bible says, whoe woe unto the inhabitants of the

56
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,719
earth and of the sea. Why because the devil has

57
00:03:29,759 --> 00:03:36,159
come down unto you, having great wrath. Okay, So I'm

58
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,680
thankful that even though the text says in the Revelation,

59
00:03:39,879 --> 00:03:42,840
John is the one who authored that book too, woe

60
00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:47,639
to us down here, that Jesus says, this is temporary.

61
00:03:48,319 --> 00:03:51,319
The woe that you experience at work, when when you

62
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:56,000
have gossipers and politrickers and people who don't mean you

63
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,000
any good, that's temporary. Ah, The woe in your relationship

64
00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:03,360
where there are some people that are just selfish full stop,

65
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,680
like they say they're for you, but they don't behave

66
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,080
and live like they are for you. That is temporary.

67
00:04:09,319 --> 00:04:12,159
You see where I'm going. The health condition that you

68
00:04:12,199 --> 00:04:15,840
are contending with today, and you have to go to

69
00:04:15,919 --> 00:04:19,959
the doctor over and over. You have dialysis over and over,

70
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:28,639
you have chemotherory therapy, you have rady radiation treatment, proton treatment.

71
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:31,360
I got a brain freeze there for a moment. That

72
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,120
woe is temporary. Why because the devil is cast out?

73
00:04:36,519 --> 00:04:39,240
Why is he going to be cast out because of

74
00:04:39,319 --> 00:04:44,279
the judgment. You see, God has a faithful record of

75
00:04:44,399 --> 00:04:48,319
everything that is going on. He is actually watching. In

76
00:04:48,399 --> 00:04:52,279
the words of Take six, as they sung, he never sleeps,

77
00:04:52,319 --> 00:04:55,439
he never slumbers. He watches me both night and day.

78
00:04:55,519 --> 00:05:00,079
He never sleeps, he never slumbers. The reason I know, oh,

79
00:05:00,319 --> 00:05:02,839
it is because he told me so. He told you

80
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,439
that the devil is going to be judged. He told

81
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,040
you that he's going to be cast out. How do

82
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,480
we know that his word is true? Well, what of

83
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,360
the ways is because he cast him out of heaven.

84
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,040
So if he could do that, he's gonna definitely do it. Here,

85
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,439
let me keep going, John chapter sixteen and verse eleven.

86
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,839
The Bible reads, of course we're breaking into a discussion,

87
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:29,199
but it's appropriate here of judgment, because the prince of

88
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,360
this world is what judged. The prince of this world

89
00:05:33,439 --> 00:05:37,079
is judged. I don't have to say anything more. It's

90
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,279
just another passage to say the same thing. Tewo Corinthians,

91
00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:44,360
chapter four and verse four. In whom the God lowercase

92
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,800
G of this world has blinded the minds of them

93
00:05:48,879 --> 00:05:52,879
which believe not so, that means that the devil, who

94
00:05:52,959 --> 00:05:56,160
is the quote god of this world. That means that

95
00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:01,759
he is having temporary, limited rule of people who will

96
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:06,600
cooperate with him. The Bible says that he hath blinded

97
00:06:06,759 --> 00:06:08,839
their minds that believe not.

98
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:09,079
Speaker 1: So.

99
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,519
Speaker 2: What is the antidote for the blinded mind? The blinded mindset,

100
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,800
the one that is deceived by the enemy. The antidote

101
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,600
is to no longer be bound to the devil. Believe God,

102
00:06:21,639 --> 00:06:25,879
it says, those who believe not have blinded minds. So

103
00:06:25,959 --> 00:06:30,399
we get to believe God. When God says it's this way,

104
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,839
then we believe him what he says in his word,

105
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,839
we believe him. Okay, let me keep going less the

106
00:06:36,959 --> 00:06:39,680
light of the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ. Now we

107
00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:43,759
know with the basis of his word, the blinders coming

108
00:06:43,879 --> 00:06:48,240
off comes by virtue of the glorious or that bright,

109
00:06:48,399 --> 00:06:51,800
shining Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Bible says that the

110
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,480
Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God unto

111
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:01,519
salvation to everyone who what believes, to everyone who believes.

112
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,319
If you want to live in light and not darkness,

113
00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:09,879
believe God. If you want to overcome your besetting sins

114
00:07:09,959 --> 00:07:13,920
and those things that have been really dogging your heels

115
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,279
for years and years, and you realize that that is

116
00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:20,279
in your bloodline. Your daddy was this way, your grandmother

117
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,959
was this way, your great grandfather, your great great grandmother

118
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:29,160
on both sides, mothers on both sides were this way. Well,

119
00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:31,480
the Bible says that we can believe in the glorious

120
00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:35,720
Gospel of Christ, who is the image of God should

121
00:07:35,879 --> 00:07:40,360
shine unto them. Luke Chapter four and verse six. And

122
00:07:40,399 --> 00:07:43,160
the devil said, unto him, all this power will I

123
00:07:43,199 --> 00:07:46,680
give unto you the glory of them, for that is

124
00:07:46,759 --> 00:07:50,879
delivered to me, and to whomsoever I will give it.

125
00:07:50,959 --> 00:07:55,040
Now the devil was lying. May I just say, yeah,

126
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,279
the Bible says he's the prince of this world. Yes,

127
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:02,360
the Bible says he's the lowercase g D of this world. Yeah,

128
00:08:02,399 --> 00:08:05,240
it is not given unto him to give whomever he

129
00:08:05,279 --> 00:08:09,480
wishes anything on planet Earth. Because he is temporary, he

130
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,720
is under judgment, and that judgment will finally be executed soon,

131
00:08:13,839 --> 00:08:18,319
thank God. Ah. And yeah, God is always watching, he

132
00:08:18,399 --> 00:08:21,959
will be cast out. So when he was tempting Jesus

133
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,720
in the wilderness, and he was saying, as he was

134
00:08:25,759 --> 00:08:28,360
showing Jesus all of the kingdoms of the world in

135
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:33,080
the moment of time, he wanted Jesus to worship him,

136
00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:37,799
and he was promising something he could not provide. If

137
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,399
you worship me, then I will give you everything. You see.

138
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:45,080
There are some parties, let me just say, there are

139
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,720
some parties that have been in the news worldwide of

140
00:08:49,759 --> 00:08:53,840
a music mogul in the United States of America, who,

141
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,840
like many before him, promised the world to people, to

142
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,360
artists and maybe even act and actresses promise the world

143
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,840
to them if they would only fill in the blank

144
00:09:05,919 --> 00:09:09,279
something that is not godly. Well we see where that went.

145
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:14,000
So the devil's rule is temporary. God is always in

146
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:18,679
control and he will deliver his people ultimately. So guard

147
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,879
your mind, submit yourselves to God, and stay alert in prayer.

148
00:09:23,879 --> 00:09:27,039
The Bible says, watch and pray that you enter not

149
00:09:27,159 --> 00:09:31,559
into temptation. The spirit, indeed is willing. He was speaking

150
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,120
to one of our brothers, but the flesh is weak.

151
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,279
I'm taking this to heart that I will continue to

152
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:43,279
pray because I know that in my own flesh I'm weak.

153
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:44,559
Make it a great day, peace.

154
00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:46,279
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening.

155
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 2: Friends.

156
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: Always remember we cannot live by bread alone, but by

157
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,679
every word that comes from the mouth of God. This

158
00:09:53,759 --> 00:09:57,200
has been your daily portion with El David Harris. Make

159
00:09:57,279 --> 00:10:00,279
it a great day. Yeah,
