God and the Black Woman 'Elizabeth' Throughout the Bible Yeshua has a unique relationship with women. For one thing, women are in the midst of Yeshua's minstry. This was an unheard phenomenon of that time. Yet, in fact, it was women who made the ministry of Christ stand out. Let's take a look at the women who surrounded the ministry of Christ. Let it be first and foremost understood that we are speaking of a culture of Black/Africoid Hebrew people. I don't have time to put forth all the proof in this writing and many scholars have gone before me and done it, but be assured we are dealing with a Black/Africoid Hebrew/Jewish nation of which would be born the Black messiah. At any rate, the first one on the scene is the BLACK WOMAN ELIZABETH. Elizabeth, her lineage is of the priestly order of Aaron (Lk. 1:5). In other words, she was reared in spirituality and well understood the things of God. She was one of those true to form 'church-folk' type of black woman. She was married to a priest named Zaccharias. She is the first person, a black woman, who is mentioned as SHE who received the HOLY SPIRIT (Luke 1:41). Only her husband Zaccharias proceeds her with an angelic visit but immediately fails God and is stricken as deaf and dumb as he was behaving. So what have we, a black Semitic Hebrew/Jew man and woman are the first to hear directly from heaven with regard to the coming of the Bible's account of the Messiah. Let's think about that black women. Here it is, the day of reckoning, the Great day of expectation and there is God FIRST INFORMING and then USING the BLACK WOMAN to bring about deliverance. He first sought to use her husband the black man but he was foolish, and made the angel mad with his fearful, foolish, utterances of DISBELIEF and so was stricken as deaf and dumb as he was acting. Who says God doesn't insult? The story goes like this, Elizabeth has him at his temple job, and he was a goodly sort of man, so I'm sure coupled with her fervent, effectual, prayers, God honored her by visiting her husband as oooh who knows, perhaps she was MIS-trained as that's the way it's suppose to be. So God honored the man yet, it is the BLACK WOMAN who is the important and necessary vehicle to bring about deliverance. Throughout Scripture you see it is ALWAYS the WOMAN, GOD AND THE BLACK WOMAN. The angel comes, gives the news that God was going to use Elizabeth to mother a great son, (John the Baptist), the one to proceed and prepare the way for the Christ. Well, instead of him falling down on his knees praising God for this whole miraculous moment, he insults the angel by stupidly 'questioning the validity' of the message (Lk. 1:18). I mean, think about that black women. Here appears this big glorious burnished bronz ed ARCH-angel with glorious lights, spectacular to behold. Mind you, so spectacular that Zaccharias falls down 'inordinately fearful, troubled and trembling' at the magnificence of the moment (Lk. 1:12). NOTE:The Black color of the angel as described in the book of Daniel is burnished bronzed i.e. copper i.e. Black (Daniel 10:5-6). Instead of Zaccharias being of a 'truthful' believing spirit and receiving the 'truthful words' of the angel of Truth/God, he does wrong even with the angel of God right in his midst. His downfall is his his state of mind, 'TROUBLED' , UNBELIEVING and 'FEARFUL' as the Bible recalls it (Lk. 1:12). The Strong's Greek dictionary defines the word 'troubled' as 'stirred, agitated.' Meaning of course, the spirit within him. Now, seemingly that wouldn't be a problem, who wouldn't be taken aback at the presence of an Archangel of such splendor? However, we know there had to be something else to it, to make the angel strike out at Zach arias 'troubled' mindset. In other words, the matter had to be that he was 'foolish' in his disposition, probably quoting Scriptures instead of letting Scripture become a live truthful force in him to be able to receive truth in all its truthfulness. He was 'despicable' in his disposition is the moral of the story. Mind you, the angel had delivered a 'sermon' to the man. That's quite a visitation, you know what I mean? It wasn't like some ghostly apparition. This magnificent angel Gabriel came forth and told him the short and long of it, in explicit details (Lk. 1:13-17). As the young people would proclaim it, 'he broke the matter down to a brother', gave him the 'who,what,where,when,why, and how' basics and how does the black man receive it? Trembling, troubled, fearful, he DISBELIEVES IT. His disbelief was an act of disrespect to the angel who more or less said, "I stand in the presence of God boy, and you still are foolish fearful cowardly enough to doubt ME AND THE MESSAGE?' (Lk. 1:19). So despicable was his disposition that he annoyed the angel of God, and so caused him to afflict him for his mad state of being. I mean, he just struck him, 'deaf and dumb' on the spot (Lk. 1:19-20). One of those, 'you make me sick' type of strike outs eh black women? Black women this is the reverberating message that God would have you ponder loooooong and hard upon, as we seem to have here a 'frustration of an angel' at the foolishness of a black male, along the same way in which we are frustrated. God and the Black woman have a lot of things in common when it comes to black males. Call on him, God will verify for you. Okay, flipping the Script, enter GOD AND THE BLACK WOMAN experience. As said, here's Elizabeth thinking her hubby is at the Temple, 'Believing and Receiving THE WORD' and the next thing you know she's being informed that he's out of the temple stammering around as deaf and dumb as can be. The Bible goes on to say , the people motioned to him, to try and get the truth out of him but all he could do was write down bits and pieces as his unbelief caused him to no longer be qualified to GIVE THE TRUTH. All he could do was mutter bits and pieces of the truth about the angel. Well Elizabeth takes him on home anyway, after his service is completed and she comforts him, strokes his depleted ego and tells him, 'he's the man' in spite of the evidence to the contrary. As so he, feeling sufficiently pampered is with her, and she conceives the promised child along this line of highly probable reality, eh, black women? Okay, I'm sure her goal was to get the message out of him and Scripture backs that up as he's left deaf and dumb throughout her entire pregnancy and only when the child is birth and the name is to be given, do we verify that Elizabeth had gotten the message out of Mr. 'deaf and dumb' because she names the child as the angel had instructed, 'John' (Lk. 1:13,57-63. I n other words, Elizabeth the BLACK WOMAN BELIEVED, had stored and pondered the truth in her heart throughout her pregnancy, and when the hour of truth came, she laid it out there just as the angel of God had instructed. "His name will be called John" said she (Lk. 1:19). Black woman got the job done!!!! It was only after she had done as the angel instructed did the males around her seek to stop her. They said, 'the child should be named after Zacharias...Zach Jr., if you will.' However, as we see from the adamant way in which the Scripture infers Elizabeth proclaimed the name John, she wasn't having any of that man-made false religious/tradition BS, she was going with GOD! Matter of fact! It is at that time, that they turn to Mr. 'deaf and dumb' hubby to try to get her to do things the way of 'male-made' tradition aka seemingly 'right way' but by this time, the miracle of life that grew in Elizabeth's stomach, that coupled with him being struck 'deaf and dumb' 2 mira cles of truth, and old Zach had time to 'think 'quietly' upon the things of God and could agree to the TRUTH of which his WIFE professed with regard to the child's name (Lk. 1:18-21). The Bible goes on to say, when he spoke the TRUTH as the BLACK WOMAN did the Lord unstopped his ears so he could hear and his tongue so he could speak TRUTH as he should have done in the first place. Now, Elizabeth is just blessed all the way around. This black woman brings forth the promised child, she also grows in faith and spirituality, closer and more knowing of the things of God than the black man. As a bonus, she gets a NEW BORN, now WISE AND BELIEVING Black husband and that's a rare treat, indeed! Now, the story doesn't end there with Elizabeth. Elizabeth is a spiritual woman of great faith and this is displayed before she even had the child. That is, the Bible says, Mary another Black young girl, is visited by the same angel, with different results. The Black young girl BELIEVES, RECEIVES, REJOICES in the angel's visitation and sure enough the miracle is wrought in her as she is given the honor of bringing forth the Messiah. 2 BLACK WOMEN the sole righteous forces who know more than all the men of Israel as these are the only 2 BELIEVERS on planet earth who God is recorded as revealing the truth of the things of God. He sent his angel and his Holy Spirit to 2 Black women. I'll elaborate on Mary's visitation at another writing. In the meantime, Mary unlike Zach believes and because of her UNDERSTANDING, AND BELIEF, the angel tells her of her cousin Elizabeth who is still pregnant at this time. Two Black women pregnant with the 2 most powerful black men ever to be born. John the Baptist, and Yeshua Hamashiach aka Jesus the Christ. God and the Black woman! Well, because of the good news Mary receives, she goes to visit her cousin. Mary had to be a spiritual young girl herself, fond of her cousin Elizabeth. The Bible goe s on to say, 'as soon as Mary entered Elizabeth's house, the babe leaped in her stomach, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and began to rejoice, prophesy and reveal the things of God (Lk. 1:39-45). The Bible says, with a loud utterance, did Elizabeth more or less proclaim, 'what a great overwhelming, over the top honor has been granted ME, A BLACK WOMAN, that I should be in the presence of the SON OF GOD, who was conceived through GOD AND THE BLACK WOMAN in the person of young Mary whose Hebrew name is Miriam.' Elizabeth full of the HOLY SPIRIT blesses her young cousin, she honors her as the MOTHER OF GOD whereupon both of these Black women begin to PREACH THE WORD OF TRUTH THAT WAS 'ALIVE AND ACTIVE' IN THEM. Mind you, they didn't follow the letter of the law, nor did GOD for that matter, as He chose these 2 BLACK WOMEN and they were the only 2 on planet earth who KNEW THE TRUTH, BELIEVED THE TRUTH AND REJOICED AND ACTED ON THE TRUTH, while Zach her blac k husband, is still sitting there as deaf and dumb as ever. Moral of the story, GOD AND THE BLACK WOMAN! Call on our husband, father, protector, for he is the same God who is calling on you to exalt you and lift you to heights unknown. God bless every righteous black woman out there both young and matured. Indeed, black women the same God who used this spiritual BLACK WOMAN powerhouse is the same God who is arisen to exalt black women as a whole. Pray therefore to that end. Again, God bless you my beloved sisters as you can see from GOD'S TRUTH, YOU DESERVE IT, YOU TRULY DO!!! ================================================= |
