“And We revealed to Moses, saying: Travel by night with My servants–you will be pursued. And Pharaoh sent heralds into the cities (proclaiming): These are indeed a small band, and they have surely enraged us: And we are truly a vigilant multitude.” -Holy Qur’an, Surah 26, verses 52-56
It is apparent by virtue of the above verses that the opposition of Pharaoh and his army become increasingly hostile to Moses and the Children of Israel. Even though historically, the delivery of a small band of Israelites by Moses may be overly dramatized and exaggerated by Biblical interpretations, nevertheless, this history contains metaphors of Truth in the chronology of past events that are being rehearsed as a sign of what is taking place in America today in relationship to the modern role of the Israelite Nation portrayed by her Black descendants caught up in the holocaust of slavery. Everywhere we travel in the land, we are stalked and victimized as the prey in her midst, without Freedom, Justice or Equality.
Traveling by night indicates the condition of gross darkness and ignorance that blankets the land and its people from nation to nation around the globe. The key to the Resurrection of the world’s populous lies in the hands of the regenerated and resurrected status of the Black Family in America. When the Great Master came to America, under a disguise, bearing the Name W.D. Fard, He reclaimed us, the worse of fallen humanity, as His own, and put us on the path of Spiritual Redemption. The fullness of this story is yet to be told; but He claimed us as a Nation within a Nation and began the process of our regeneration and spiritual rebirth.
During my last two months journey to the Western Region of the United States, from Phoenix, Arizona to the State of California, I was made aware by the events that unfolded, that I was retracing my footsteps in my travels with the Wise Man and His Companions, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. I became more deeply aware, that my work, as a student of the Divine Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, is that of a bearer of witness to this great history of our nation that has come to pass.
Every day of this New Year, I have wept much because I further realized that we have come to the end of a cycle in our evolution and growth that portends great and powerful changes that will come to benefit many and bring in a New Era of Peace and Prosperity in spite of the fiery holocaust that is raging on our Planet. As it is written in the Book of Malachi, that ends the Old Testament under the Name of Elijah, this day is described as both the Great and Dreadful Day of the Lord.
This year signals the intensity of events yet to come that closes the cycle of time between now and the year, 2012-2013. This is to be understood, according to the Prophetic Writings of our Asiatic Calendar which contains the Mayan Prophecies, as well as the Prophetic writings of both Bible and Holy Qur’an to be studied as a whole for greater understanding. The door that is now opening is the door of liberation and freedom, even though opposition is mounting. We can overcome all obstacles in our path with the firm resolution that Our God and Faith is One, as we vibrate Peace and Love for the whole of fallen humanity. The Lion being released from the Cage also represents the condition of our minds being mentally enslaved and poisoned by the rusty locks and chains imposed on our people by our open enemies through more than 400 years of oppression and servitude slavery.
We are reminded in our Supreme Wisdom Lessons that Big fields await the wide awake man to work out in to raise the dead by the thousands, and we will soon be free, and inherit a World of Peace and Prosperity.
“So we turned them out of gardens and springs, And treasures and goodly dwellings–Even so. And We gave them as a heritage to the Children of Israel.” –Holy Qur’an, Surah 26, verses 57-59.
To be continued.
