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 --> 00:00:33,039
author speaker Elle David Harris.

10
00:00:33,119 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 2: Good morning, good morning, Good morning, it is Thursday. It's

11
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,000
May twenty two, twenty twenty five. Hello, my name is

12
00:00:40,039 --> 00:00:42,359
El David Harris. I am your host, and this is

13
00:00:42,439 --> 00:00:45,399
your Daily Portion where we give you God's word every

14
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,920
single day and today is no exception. We are continuing

15
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,679
in our lesson study series how to study Bible Prophecy,

16
00:00:53,039 --> 00:00:57,880
and our caption for today is teach transgressors your way,

17
00:00:58,399 --> 00:01:02,600
teach transgressor there is your way. I was still writing

18
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,280
notes right while it was my cue to come on,

19
00:01:05,799 --> 00:01:08,040
and uh yeah, I made it. Thank God, thank God,

20
00:01:08,079 --> 00:01:09,959
thank God. Well, I'd just like to say welcome to

21
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,599
everyone joining us, especially those joining us for the very

22
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,799
first time. I'm asking you to please go over to

23
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,519

24
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,319
here in a second, your Daily Portion dot Com. And

25
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,560
I want you to pick up the Your Daily Portion

26

32
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,719
This is one of the ways that we continue to

33
00:01:49,799 --> 00:01:53,519
build faith and fellowship. Let's go ahead and pray, and

34
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,760
then we will get underway. Father, We thank you for

35
00:01:56,799 --> 00:02:01,159
giving us the opportunity to study together, to listen for

36
00:02:01,239 --> 00:02:05,719
your voice together, and then do your will together. Please teach,

37
00:02:06,079 --> 00:02:09,719
help us to teach people who don't know you the way.

38
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:15,280
In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen and Amen again. So

39
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:19,000
I almost missed my cue when the guy says author speaker,

40
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,000
his name is Mac author Speaker El David Harris. And

41
00:02:23,039 --> 00:02:25,800
I was writing really quickly, really quickly on my notes

42
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,000
because I know the way. Why was I writing that

43
00:02:29,039 --> 00:02:32,520
so feverishly? At the last minute? I was considering in

44
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:37,400
the moment waiting for my cue that this lesson writer says,

45
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:42,199
based on the scripture that David will treat will teat

46
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:47,319
transgressors your way meaning God's way. Well, well, how is

47
00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:50,280
that person? How is David going to do that? How

48
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,159
am I going to do that? Why am I going

49
00:02:53,199 --> 00:02:55,479
to do that? This is all that popped up in

50
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,680
my mind in the last moments. You know why because

51
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:04,599
because because I know the way. Yeah, the broadcast has

52
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,919
not broken. I said, because I know the way. There

53
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,400
are a couple of things. Now, Jesus said, you do

54
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,280
know the way. I am the Way, the Truth and

55
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,719
the life. No man cometh unto the Father except by me.

56
00:03:17,879 --> 00:03:20,400
Because the disciples were like, we don't know the way,

57
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,080
Please show us the way. Well that's one thing, but no,

58
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,280
that's what I mean. But there's something more. There's something more.

59
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:33,680
I know the pathway that transgressors who are becoming saints

60
00:03:33,719 --> 00:03:37,360
of God need to take because I have transgressed the

61
00:03:37,439 --> 00:03:40,680
law of God. The Bible says that when that sin

62
00:03:40,919 --> 00:03:44,360
is the transgression of the law, that means that means

63
00:03:44,439 --> 00:03:50,599
that I that I as a sinner who has transgressed

64
00:03:50,639 --> 00:03:53,159
the law of God and worthy of eternal death. But

65
00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:57,400
when I receive mercy from God, when I received grace

66
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,840
from God through faith that God gave me, and I

67
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:07,080
started to walk the pathway toward holiness. Now I can say, hey, brother,

68
00:04:07,159 --> 00:04:09,639
hey sister, I know the way, and I want you

69
00:04:09,719 --> 00:04:12,879
to follow me, just like Paul said, follow me as

70
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:16,720
I follow Christ. I know the way. I know the way,

71
00:04:17,079 --> 00:04:21,439
and so I can help you because I know the way. Now,

72
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:24,480
there is a reason that some people are reluctant to

73
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:27,720
help others get connected to God, and I'll share that

74
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,600
in just a moment. There's a reason why some people

75
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:35,680
are reluctant to help others get close or connected to God.

76
00:04:35,759 --> 00:04:39,399
Let me begin. Let me begin with Psalm chapter fifty

77
00:04:39,399 --> 00:04:42,759
one and verse seven. The Bible reads, purge me with hissup,

78
00:04:42,759 --> 00:04:46,439
and I shall be clean, Wash me and I will

79
00:04:46,519 --> 00:04:50,279
be whiter than snow. And Isaiah chapter six, verses seven

80
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,720
and eight. The Bible says, your iniquity, the Angel said

81
00:04:53,759 --> 00:04:59,600
to Isaiah, is taken away, and your sin is purged.

82
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,240
And then of course, when the invitation comes, who will

83
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,439
I sin? Who shall go for us? He says, here

84
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:11,079
am I send me? Now? Both David and Isaiah were

85
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:16,199
in awe of God. They were aware, keenly and palpably

86
00:05:16,439 --> 00:05:22,199
aware of their sinfulness. But once they were cleansed, somebody

87
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,519
needs to start worshiping now. Once they were cleansed, they

88
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,079
had the awareness of their cleansing. They had the awareness

89
00:05:29,319 --> 00:05:31,720
that it was it was God who gave them what

90
00:05:31,959 --> 00:05:37,360
they did not deserve. He gave them holiness, He gave

91
00:05:37,399 --> 00:05:41,480
them cleansing from sin. Yes, Jesus died the death that

92
00:05:41,519 --> 00:05:44,319
we deserve so that we can live the life that

93
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,879
he deserves. This is our full and present awareness in

94
00:05:48,959 --> 00:05:53,160
twenty twenty five. Since that is the case. Now, once

95
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,600
they're cleansed, once we're cleansed, we step into action, we

96
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:01,040
step into service. We're not reserving anything for our anymore.

97
00:06:01,439 --> 00:06:05,000
We're saying, where Thou leadest, God, I will follow, et cetera.

98
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,560
So we can't serve from guilt or shame. We can't

99
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:14,639
serve because we're bracing for some negative thing to happen. God,

100
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,319
his cleansing qualifies us for the mission. I said, God's

101
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,879
cleansing qualifies us for the mission. Sometimes people say God

102
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,399
doesn't need human beings to close up the work, that

103
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,399
is to share the gospel with people and it's just like,

104
00:06:32,639 --> 00:06:35,279
I know what you're trying to say. But really and truly,

105
00:06:35,319 --> 00:06:38,639
who can give a testimony better than a human being

106
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,439
who was a sinner saved by grace? Who can give

107
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,439
a testimony that could say I was sinking deep in sin,

108
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:50,000
far from the peaceful shore, very deeply stained within, sinking

109
00:06:50,079 --> 00:06:53,639
to rise no more. But the master of the sea

110
00:06:53,759 --> 00:06:57,279
heard my despairing cry. The Angel didn't have to have

111
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,360
a despairing cry, and from the waters he lifts me.

112
00:07:00,639 --> 00:07:03,639
The angel didn't need to be lifted from the waters

113
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,079
of sin, And now safe am I Love lifted me.

114
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,120
So this is a special ministry and calling that only

115
00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:18,759
redeemed humans have. Number two after mercy comes ministry. In

116
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,319
Psalm chapter fifty one, verse thirteen, the Bible reads, then

117
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,279
I will teach transgressors thy ways, and sinners will be

118
00:07:26,399 --> 00:07:29,160
converted unto thee That's because people will see your life

119
00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:32,079
and they will say, oh, my goodness, if God can

120
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,959
transform you. I've seen you drinking and smoking. I've seen

121
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,079
you violent towards your spouse. I have seen you do

122
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,360
all kinds of things in the name of God that

123
00:07:41,399 --> 00:07:45,279
God does not condone. I've seen you rebel against God,

124
00:07:45,319 --> 00:07:48,759
I've seen you be unkind toward people. I've seen the

125
00:07:48,839 --> 00:07:52,040
pride and the puffed up chests that you used to have.

126
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,319
But now I see you connected to God in such

127
00:07:55,319 --> 00:07:58,079
a way that I am so drawn to him. Can

128
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,920
you show me the way? The reality is that people

129
00:08:01,959 --> 00:08:06,160
who once rebelled who now are choosing to serve God

130
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,800
are the best case studies, the best examples of people

131
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,279
to other people to say, God is able to do

132
00:08:14,399 --> 00:08:19,040
it for you, so your testimony of forgiveness can be

133
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:25,759
someone else's breakthrough. God uses healed people to heal others.

134
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,639
I said a little bit earlier that there is a

135
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,279
reason that there is a reluctance on the part of

136
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,759
some people to help others to get connected to God.

137
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,320
You have to beg them, to help beg them because

138
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,679
there are people out there dying in their sins and

139
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,759
you have to beg them. That's because they have not

140
00:08:42,879 --> 00:08:47,360
yet embraced or maybe they embraced and then rejected later,

141
00:08:48,159 --> 00:08:51,200
but they are not currently embracing the beauty of the

142
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:56,399
forgiveness of God. They are not currently and presently appreciative

143
00:08:57,879 --> 00:09:02,960
and empowered by the fact that God has cleansed them. Yeah,

144
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,759
it's the reality. Yeah, you don't have to text me,

145
00:09:06,799 --> 00:09:12,440
it's true. Yeah. Number three, worship is restored when guilt

146
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,720
is removed. The Bible writer says, deliver me, and my

147
00:09:16,879 --> 00:09:21,080
tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. O Lord, open

148
00:09:21,399 --> 00:09:25,279
my lips and my mouth shall show forth your praise.

149
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,240
And there is so much more to say. The fact is,

150
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,840
the fact is, the ones who praise God most are

151
00:09:31,879 --> 00:09:34,080
the ones who are forgiven most. I think Jesus said it.

152
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,399
The ones who love most are the ones who are

153
00:09:36,399 --> 00:09:40,879
forgiven most, as you are forgiven and cleansed. Now you

154
00:09:41,039 --> 00:09:43,559
know how to teach people who also need to be

155
00:09:43,639 --> 00:09:45,120
forgiven and cleansed. Peace.

156
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,519
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us listening. Friends, Always remember we cannot

157
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,639
live by bread alone, but by every word that comes

158
00:09:51,639 --> 00:09:54,720
from the mouth of God. This has been your daily

159
00:09:54,759 --> 00:10:00,279
portion with el David Harris. Make it a great day. Yeah,
