There is a part of us that we, in the age of enlightenment find very difficult, that of the spiritual.
We know very little about both life and death, but something in our consciousness keeps us aware of them. Thinking about Yah often brings awareness to our minds, if we know Yah as our Creator and defender, then we can put aside the concerns and fears of Adam’s realm and start to explore Yah’s realm.
This putting aside of earthly fears and responsibilities are important, that is why when we pray, we should be alone in our own space. Prayer is the way we imteract with Yah at a personal level. One to one.
If we bring our worldly fears into our prayer closet with us, we have a distraction. We carry with us preconceived ideas which which can mask the truths that Yah would want us to enjoy to the full.
If I come into my prayer closet believing that I am descended from an ape, or that ‘God’ and ‘Allah’ are the same person, Yah cannot reveal Truth to me unless I am prepared to put these worldly beliefs in the trash.
If I throw Darwin or Mohammed in Yah’s face, he will ignore me and prayer goes unheard. I need to be prepared to have deeply held beliefs overlaid by Yah’s truth, if I do not, then I am worshipping my own godship, and virtue signalling my religion to all and sundry.
Religion is the single biggest block to real spirituality; clinging to religion means that we are in bondage to Adam’s world. The root of spirituality before Yah is in seeking to live our lives according to His commandments, statutes and opinions.
Many believe that ‘Torah’ was nailed to the Cross – the word Paul uses in the Greek ‘dogma’ means ‘opinion’, and should not be conflated with nomia (law). YYahushua tells us the not one smallest part of Yah’s law can change; Torah comprises the very words Yah used when he spoke Creation into existence, and we need to get on board with this.
We take into our prayer closet all the filthy rags of our earthly existence, but we need to be willing to have them peeled off and replaced by Yah’s pure clean garments. If we cling to those filthy rags, Yah will abide by our free will, but we cannot walk the ‘Spiritual’ until we are prepared to come before Yah naked.
Our spiritual garment is mired by the blood and excrement of our failures, “who told you you were naked” Yah asks Adam.
Adam, using his newfound knowledge of ‘good’ and ‘bad’, clothed himself with the produce of the world, but before Yah he needed to be naked.
