And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word. 1 Kings 18: 36 KJV
This will be a simple and quick post just to share something that stirred my soul while reading just now. I am reading through the book of 1 Kings and am now on chapter 18. To summarize, King Ahab is now ruling as King over Israel and his wicked wife Jezebel ( Jezebel ( Iyzebel ) = "Baal exalts" or "Baal is husband to") has commanded that the the Prophets of YAH be put out and the prophets of Baal be brought in. The Prophet of the Most High Eliyah, ( Elijah) has left the land of Gilead at the command of the Most High and has been gone for three years now.
Before leaving, Eliyah prophesied that there would be no rain or dew in the land but according to his word. After being gone away for three years, the Most High commanded him to return to stand before King Ahab. He returns and runs into Obadyah (Obadiah), whom he instructs to alert King Ahab of his presence. Fast forward a bit, the Prophet of the Most High Eliyah stands before King Ahab and the children of Israel and asks them, " How long wilt ye halt between two opinions? If YAHAWAH (Ancient Hebrew name for YAH) be Elohim, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him." Eliyah then instructs the prophets of Baal to make an altar with oxen but no fire and to call upon your/their gods and let him answer by fire and he, Eliyah will do the same and the God that answers by fire, let him be God.
The prophets of Baal call upon their gods literally all day long with no voice, answer or any that regarded (v. 29). Then the Prophet Eliyah comes to do his sacrifice at the evening and he began to call upon the Most High Elohim of Israel after he had prepared his altar of worship. The words that Eliyah prayed never ranged so loud in my ears until now! He said, "YAHAWAH, Elohim of Abraham, Isaac and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God [Elohim] in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word." (v. 36). He went on to pray that the people will know that YAH is Elohim and that their hearts will be turned back [to YAH] again (v. 37). As an Hebrew Israelite, (nationality not religion) it is my desire and my job to make known the God of Israel among the nations! The Prophet Isaiah said, "So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun." I am currently living in the Western Hemisphere of the globe, that means I have a job to do while I am yet here. My life and my actions are to praise the Most High, to bring Him glory! I do this by keeping His Commandments and walking in his statutes! By consecrating myself, I am making it known this day that YAHAWAH, the Ancient of Days is the God/Elohim of Israel!
Eliyah was only able to have these types of experiences with the Most High because of him sanctifying (setting apart) himself and building a real relationship with the Father. Many may think that what I am preaching now since forsaking the pagan ways of Christianity, is a "new religion" but it's quite the opposite. Israel never had a religion, nor did the Messiah come and bring one with him. Religion is the work of man! Israel walked with the One and only true Elohim, YAH. That is how we were able to witness so many "miracles" done by Him. We are not witnessing the same miracles today because Israel has forsaken their God and chased after the ways and idols of the heathen around them just like we did back then! "Jesus Christ" is a pagan idol - the Messiah was not white nor was his name "Jesus Christ" nor are we to have all of these graven images (pictures, carvings, paintings etc. because that is an abomination and a transgression against the Law of YAH (Exodus 20:4 KJV). The early "church" did not call themselves "Christians" because the name "Christ", was not the name of the Messiah but rather the name of the followers of the pagan Greek god Serapis.
ISRAEL, the Negroid descendants of the12 sons of Israel ( Jacob), it's time to put away the idols, paganism and witchcraft from our hands and follow after the Elohim of our Fathers, YAH. We have vehemently increased the sins of our nation before our Elohim because of our ignorance and disobedience! This isn't the day to continue on practicing the paganism and traditions of man given to us by our heathen neighbors; no longer will that be an excuse or acceptable! YAH requires us to search the scriptures and to study to shew ourselves approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. ( 2 Tim. 2:15 KJV). Our life depends on it! Qam Yasharaala - RISE ISRAEL! and proclaim the mighty name of YAHAWAH from the land of your captivity and let it be know this day, that YAH is GOD in Israel!
Shalom & Blessings
