In the last blog, we talked about Europeans and how they try to make the Oracles that were given to us theirs. The Roman Catholic Church now claim ownership of the Scriptures, our writings. They place the words that were given to us in a book (after editing and adding their own leaven) and they present this now as the Holy Bible to the world. This has led to interpretations and teachings of Scripture being heavily influenced by European history because it originates from their perceived superiority. This, again, is why they needed to reject the manuscripts of Ethiopia. They also needed to burn the manuscripts that our forefathers had in their possession because it had evidence to reject the things that they were saying. We also learned that they were going throughout the continent burning libraries in various African cities because it would dispel the lie about white supremacy. And believe it or not, there are still people today who believe that Africans didn’t have any writings when the Europeans colonized Africa because it wouldn’t fit in with the lie used to enslave our people and traffic them around the world.
The children of Israel, our ancestors, were supposed to hide the word of YAH in their hearts and they failed to do that. They had head knowledge about Scripture but they didn’t have heart knowledge. It’s time to learn how to move beyond simply reading the Bible for information that’s only intellectual and allow the Ruach (the Holy Spirit) to reveal the hidden truths of the Scripture. I’m uncovering information about our stolen Oracles so that you can see why it’s so vitally important in this hour for us to have the Word in our heart. It’s only through the Ruach that we can receive revealed knowledge of the hidden truths. We were given something precious and we allowed it to be taken away. It was twisted, a lot of it burned, and those Oracles were the most important things that they stole. Now that we know what happened, how do we prevent it from happening again? We have to place the treasure in our heart. That’s where YAH told our ancestors to put it and now we see what happened because they did not do that. By not following His instructions, our enemies got a hold of them.
According to the passage in Joshua 1:8, If you truly want the success, if you truly want to make your way prosperous, you must put the work in! You need to read the Word out loud, say it out loud and also learn how to pray out loud. There’s a reason for that. Something is happening when it leaves your mouth; there is an activation process to help it get to where it needs to go. I’m not saying you should never read scripture silently but when you’re reading it to get it down in your heart, you have to speak it because it travels from your mouth to your ear and the hammer can begin working to transmit it into the inner ear. I hope that’s making sense. Again, I’m not saying you should never pray silently or read scripture silently but there are certain things (particularly when you’re casting things down) that needs to come out of your mouth. You have to keep doing it until it gets there, until the seed gets into your heart. How will you know it’s there? He will begin to speak back to you. He will begin to talk back to you as you’re studying and meditating on things. Suddenly something will come up that you were studying to cause you to think about it in another way or cause you to do even more studying or answer a question that you have. YAH’s words are so precious. It is treasure and He’s not going to place it before those who don’t want it or appreciate it (don’t cast your pearls before swine).
The law is going to be placed in our minds and written on our hearts again. That’s where He told us to put it in the first place:
• YAH says in Jeremiah 31:33, “this is the Covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days…I will put My law in their minds and write it on their hearts and I will be their Most High and they shall be My people.” Family, if the power of death and life is in your tongue, what do you think happens when Abba speaks? The Word is a lifegiving force. His Word is revealed truth; it’s a living entity that proceeds out of the bosom of the Father. I’m speaking about the Word that became flesh and dwelt among us. He is a word spoken in time.
• In Ezekiel 11:17- 20, it says, “I will give them one heart.” He’s talking about us, our people. Do you see that our heart is seen as stony ground? That’s why we rebelled. His word is supposed to work like a hammer to break up the fallow ground so that seed can penetrate into your heart, so that it can take root and bring forth fruit. But you have to get it in first. In Jeremiah 23:29, it says His word is like that hammer. The wording here is not accidental. We need to make sure we understand what’s happening. Now, the enemy’s job is to create barriers to keep you from hearing (remember, faith comes by hearing). His job is to make you forget what you hear or place obstacles in the path to keep the seed from penetrating.
• In reading Psalm 119:11, we see we had our treasures stolen because we didn’t value the Word enough to put it down in our heart like He told us.
As you watch all the craziness going on around you, I pray that you are resting in the promises of our heavenly Father. Family, we need peace which surpasses all understanding to endure this. You need to rest in the Most High YAH. He is the only one who’s able to give us peace and rest during these uncertain times. You need to be able to go to the Source. He wants us to get His word down on the inside. You need it there because these tests and trials that are coming are going to shake you to your core. You need to have something on the inside of you so that you are able to stand. Learn more when you view the accompanying video, How Do You Move Scripture from Head Knowledge to Heart Knowledge.
