In our lives God has blessed us.. Like the children of Israel; African-Americans today have much to be thankful for! In America We weren't always FREE. Many fought for the abolishment of slavery in the USA. Once it was granted the FIGHT for CIVIL RIGHTS later began. As a PEOPLE we often times forget the STRUGGLE that our forefathers fought for our FREEDOM today!! You were the one's who witnessed it, not your children! Therefore we must do as the GOOD WORD (bible) tells us to and continue the story telling of our history so that our children and their children will KNOW all the GREAT and MIGHTY things that our GOD has delivered us from and through!!
Deuteronomy 11:1-7 (King James Version)
1Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway. 2And know ye this day: for I speak not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,
3And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;
4And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD hath destroyed them unto this day; 5And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into this place; 6And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, in the midst of all Israel:
7But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.
We MUST continue to tell the story!! For it will be through our telling that our children, grandchildren, and great grands shall be delievered. This is how they will know the POWER of the Most High God and reverence JEHOVAH for who he is to us in our lives.. It's up to us to keep the legacy of our God in circulation. If you don't who will?
It is time for the People of YHWH to RISE UP!! Let us not forsake the cause of why we are yet still here... My prayer is that we shall learn to tell others all what Jehovah has done for us.. That we be reminded in this day that his POWER remains the same and that we were called to a PROMISE and there is an end that we must keep!
Deuteronomy 11:18-21 (King James Version)
18Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.
19And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
20And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:
21That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
May the Lord add a blessing to the reading and hearing of this word... Shalom!
