Rebuilding Biblical Foundations in 2020: A Year Long Study of Genesis 1 - Day 1 Week 7/53 : SPIRIT

In my person I am working on week seven of fifty-three weeks of rebuilding biblical foundations: A year long study of Genesis 1. But in my spirit it’s already done! This week our Key Word is SPIRIT and know I have never sat down to write about the working of the Holy Spirit in this my one life but I’ve shared a many life stories of his movements over the years with folks, family, friends and foes. 

Many folks, friends and foes are forever seated on the bandwagon of MYSTICS and MAGIC in regards to the Holy Spirit but this black girl sits with the MASTER until HE molds and makes my crooked paths straight. 

I know the word MASTER makes many of you and maybe even me think back to a time when our ancestors were slaves. I get it! But what we need to know and fully understand for most black women and a few white women, that's is exactly where and when it all started. The it I'm speaking of is the relational comforts some folks are privileged to enjoy and other folks only dream of. 

It is my supposition that the black woman's relational priority with the slave master was the very beginning of the black woman's relational priority with the MASTER. 

When asked to do a certain thing Simon refers to Jesus as MASTER!

And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. Luke 5:5

Due Anti-literacy laws in these United States of America, over time black people developed a unique dependency on The Holy Ghost who is also The person of The Holy Spirit!

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

It ain't MYSTICS or MAGIC but a healthy regard for The MASTER Gardener. 

Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east in Eden. — Genesis 2:8

It ain't MYSTICS or MAGIC but relational priority with the MASTER. 

And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Genesis 1:2

Due Anti-literacy laws in these United States of America, over time black women developed a unique dependency on The Holy Ghost who is also The person of The Holy Spirit!

This unique dependency on and in The person of The Holy Spirit coupled with the word which became flesh  plus an innate heart's desire to please The MASTER at all times is the Inheritance which fuels and fortifies all that which ain't Black Girl Magic. 

With all that said our Study of the Key Word Spirit and The person of The Holy Spirit begins today.
