Culture - I Rasta

Jah free the people over the hills and valleys too. Through a mystical communication we come to each other and we acquire knowledge and strength. Only ignorance and indifference separate us. From Babylon times to now in the new Babylon free people's progress has been held back by these same forces of darkness and terror.

 

Babylon never unite. It seek to divide all peoples from each other so that the heads of this and that can profit from the works and dreams of Jah People. All of these same forces bring fear and doubt among the Idren. They focus on them selves instead of seeking the higher knowledge that exists out side of the self but is born of Jah Sprit which is in us all.

This perfect self that is driven by Jah Sprit can guide us through all the hills and valleys and the many rivers we have to cross in life.

 

Today take some time out to meditate on the many mercies you have received and the many blessings that have been abundantly given to you. Use this consciousness to imagine how you are going to break your life out of the chains of Babylon that in circle us all now. We have to become self sufficient soldiers in Jah Army if we are to survive the fire that is to come.

 

Babylon is on the precipice of a great fall. Chant it down for the fall has begun. Word Sound Power
