Ethnic Authentic Black History

 HortenseInspiration STRETCHING MY MIND AND YOURS . . . Black History

~ I have no idea why in more recent times, Africans on the Continent have begun to celebrate a "Black History" month. 

I have always thought this month-long period to be a Black American holiday that commemorates the triumps of the Civil Rights era. A worthy reminder of the massive progress integration has achieved. A momentum that systemic racism in the United States have been defeated. Hence we celebrate Black History Month in the USA. To remember, recognise, celebrate, and NEVER FORGET the sacrifices of Dr. Martin Luther King and the heroes and heroines, along with their many collaborators-- Collectively, the giants of Black America triumphs. 

Sadly, in today's America this history is being rewritten. Rewritten, for the most part, by many Black Americans themselves. If they do not snap out of it soon enough the coming fifty years will indicate it wasn't Dr King and other stalwart, brave, bold figures in Black American history who won that struggle. The history is being craftily and cunningly rewritten to place the triumph in the hands of those who own the Presses that record and write down history. As They want to see history be remembered.  Still yet shall it be coined "Black History" in America. 

When Black America return the Black church foundation to its proper, rightful place in its life their liberation is preserved. When Black America place its value system back to the Church and godly principles of Christ, their history is unerased. When Black America take back its traditional family values. The morals, ethics, culture, and foundations that dominated Black life during segregation. Black History will outshine detractors. The real Black history will remain. Only then. 

My Africans, hear me. The way to be African is not that African ethnicity must blindly mimic everything about Black American culture. In the Continent of Africa it is being African that is the history. African itself is a system. Africa does not need to rehearse extensions of itself to redefine what it means to be African and/or of African descent. Africa is a whole. Any connection of it is parcel of it and not the other way around. Western comforts should not dictate what being African is. Africa is itself.

The African Continent has not systemic racism. Our issues in Africa are far more grave. We are free today. Technically. The colonialism era is over. Technically. We learned how to free ourselves. We set our ownselves free FOR FREE. We found a free way to free ourselves. The whole world see it now. Africa is free. Try denying this.

Black History Month on the African Continent is mental slavery. Enslaved by your own self. Parallelism! You bet. 

Hear me. I have witnessed a trend. The past decade has shown that Africa is emerging free, at last. That free at last train is being made possible by the move of the spirit of God Almighty across the African Continent. As Jesus Christ is being lifted up in lengths and breadths along the shores of Africa, we Africans are finally set free. We are telling our stories. Our way. Our pride. Our perception. Our African life. We have forced anybody and everybody to listen. Those of African ethnicity outside the Continent must watch and learn from how it means to be African. Truly African. 

Whomever them gates of hell is [intentional mis-grammar]. The gates of Hell are frustrated. But they are relentless. Satan! They, those gates, know the African and his God are insurmountable. The Gates come on platforms. They come screaming, "Look at me I am here for you; I alone am here for you; I have always been on your side." Says the gates of hell. The Bible says it shall NOT PREVAIL. Wake up and read the Word. They want to keep you from your God by making you dilute your worth with sin. The Gates of hell are smart. Satan! But the gates are defeated by omniscience. Pure eternal wisdom. Almighty God in Christ. The gates have lost. Boom!

Outside the church of Jesus Christ, there is nothing Africans both at home on the Continent and abroad in the Western diaspora can fasten onto permanently. Take God away from the Black man and you snap out his soul.  This is Black History 101 African version. Authentic Black Proud. My History. And You?

Wise up my people!  I love you. Blessings galore!

Shout Happy Thanksgiving LORD GOD

Wonderful world. Beautiful people. Here's to you with much love from my heart to yours. Enjoy a happy, awesome Thanksgiving Season! ~Servant Hortense

Stay ahead of Nimrod and 'em

Wonderful world. Beautiful people. How are you this morning? I pray life is great to you. I know life is fantastic with you because you are reading this. It means you are alive! Where there is life there is beautful hope. And may I add, life is meant to be lived and enjoyed and cherished. Live Christ-like!

HEAR ME . . . Children have resumed school and are out and about by the droves. The Devil loves such innocent-mind mortals. Satan's demons have been discharged by the hundred-million-thrillions to patrol schools zones and playgrounds. Demonic forces are daily sent out on neighborhood watch. Your neighborhood. Prayer Walk your streets. Begin a vigorous habit of Prayer Walking the territory around you. 

Prayer Walking means taking a walk for the purpose to pray and declare the Word of God over your streets and neighborhoods and communities. Praying out loud or praying quietly but fiercely! Prayer Walk.

BECAUSE your Seed, your offspring, is their target. By "Their" I mean Nimrod and 'em. They are after your children. Satan and his minions need those young impressionable minds to groom with demonic, hatred of Godliness, disdain for all things Jesus, Anti-Christ mentality. Pray for your seed. Pray against demonic manipulation by Satan and his minions against your offspring. Prayer will preserve your seed. PRAY.

All Power belongs to Almighty God. Jehovah alone is Omnipotent. Yahweh alone is all powerful. The Ancient of Days is the definition of might, Almighty God. It is only at the name of JESUS that demons flee. Jesus Christ is The Word from the Beginning; The Word that was with God, The Word that is God. God the Beginning!

My friend. Have not started prayer walking? Ready Set Go! Begin foot patrol of your streets today.

Much love from my end. Blessings always.

~HortenseInspiration Once Uponar Time

I MISS LIBERIA all the time. I miss what my birth country was. I miss how the people were. I miss the uniqueness of our way of life. I miss baby life in Careysburg. I miss toddler life and Kindergarten in Gbarnga. I miss every year three-month vacation in Bensonville/Bentol. I miss gorgeous Liberia. I am a Cape Palmas girl, raised right there on Maryland Avenue, from 6 years to 12 years old, elementary and first year of high school, Harper City. Then I went on to Ricks Institute. Oh how I miss being on the mission. Those were absolutely my wonder years. I miss Liberia. I miss Monrovia. Oh how I love love love Monrovia!!! I miss University days at LU. I miss riding the buses back and forth to Science College and days at Fendall Campus. I miss living around 72nd area. I miss walking from Paynesville Red Light along Somalia Drive. Aye mehn! Liberia. Liberia! Liberia. My heart gone way back soon this morning. I guess underneath all the travels and living abroad and the Western lifestyle, I am just a little Liberian girl turned full grown Liberian women turned Liberian senior citizen in the making. Still mussing what is gone forever... Being Liberian in the First Republic. Yes, my friend. I miss Liberia. And those people that are causing the "next to impossible for life to return to normal in Liberia" I take God to beg your. Your please try, at least...
I know. There's always other alternatives. I believe, home is wherever you make home. I love dearly my America. It is my greatest joy living here and to call here home. My America has been awesome and continues to be great for me. USA is my numero uno. A heart full of gratitude and patriotism, forever, I owe America. Still. Deep inside me is a constant yearning for the African way of life. The "this is Africa oo" lifestyle. As it is lived on the African Continent! I cannot seem to shake this hunger. Even when I starve the desire the pangs remain. I thirst for Africa. I also know there are good "another African country" options. I hunger for African lifestyle. Do you feel this way sometimes? Many times? Often? Every now and then? Talk to me.
Much love my friend. Blessings!

Godly President Rule

 To all PRESIDENTIAL Aspirants, globally,  Vying for Their Nation's Highest Office ~HortenseInspiration HEAR ME. 

When a man* decide to turn to the ways of God Almighty no devil in Hell can stop you. No news media fake or real, no brainwashed populace, no carnal nature nurturer, no induced hate-fill people, no demonic manipulative systems, no wicked force on earth nor evil power in the realms above and beneath the earth. When a sinner chooses to find God and walk with Jesus NO DEVIL IN HELL CAN STOP YOU. The time is now when God the righteous judge is raising up men* to rule nations and establish his Kingdom come, before the return of Jesus Christ. Politics across the globe is about to swiftly change. Turning God's way. Men will rise who choose Almighty God as role model for their leadership.

God the Father, maker of mankind, sees the heart of every person. Man sees the outside of one another. God sees the entire man. God knows the outside of man is flesh and flesh is dirt from the earth. Flesh is decaying rot. God knows the inside of man is soul and spirit. Spirit and soul together is immortal and off the breath of God. The breath of God is everlasting. God responds to that which has his nature-the nature of forever.

Hear me. No devil in all of Hell can stop a  man who has decided to go God's way. Stand back and watch that man's enemies become floor rags for his feet. And laughingstock for any and all to see. Whatever is done in the dark must certainly show up in broad daylight. As you aspire to positions of power take note. God is raising up men foe the day.

If you see yourself in this REST EASY. God had got you fully covered. Congratulations! On your quest to step away from all things evil.  I Salute You.

Liberians and friends of Liberia everywhere, Happy 26th Day!

The Republic of Liberia celebrates 175 years of God's faithfulness as a nation and a people. Almighty God will see us through and restore the years the locust have eaten. And still we rise!

We get up and we dust off and we come out of the ashes and experience the beauty in our lives and in our land. Liberia, your 26th is on us. We owe  you. We love you, Land of our birth!

The Way of Nimrod and 'em

~HortenseInspiration SUNDAY SERMONETTE

Good Sunday morning! Get dressed up and find your way to a Church Edifice for worship. Go to church. Watching church online is not enough. Besides, you go everywhere else. Have you left home for a doctor's appointment? Have you gone grocery shopping? Have you opened your front door to look outside? Then you can go to church inside a church house. So go. Start back today. Scripture says believers must not neglect gathering together for fellowship.* Go to the church with others. Just like ALMIGHTY GOD would not give us pure air to breathe only to have our noses covered up for life. No. God does not contradict himself. Pestilence and plagues will come. Remember Egypt. God's wrath comes at the invitation of abomination from a wicked and perverse generation. We on earth today have achieved the qualification for "wicked and perverse". Wicked and perverse generation is us. We have arrived. Are we happy now? Wicked and perverse generation we are indeed. Lord have mercy!

Hear me people. Especially my African audience, and by extension, Black America. Hear me. The only hope Africans and those of African descent have ever had is God. God freed the slaves because the slaves honored God Almighty. Remember what is called "Negro Spirituals"? The slaves sang about the power and love and grace and mercy and mighty hand of their Lord God until..! One day God shook everything and the slaves were set free! Singing "Free at Last Free at Last ...thank God Almighty I am free at last (x2)." The slaves had sang their way throughout slavery. The slaves sang, "Jesus on the main line tell Him what you want ...call Him up and tell Him what you want." The slaves were a singin...! They sang "Pharoah, Pharoah, let my people go (x2)." Oh, they sang, "Go down Moses, down in Egypt land, go tell Pharoah to let my people go! Oh how the slaves sang to God. They sang their way free by exalting the NAME of their God. The LORD STRONG AND MIGHTY. Hear me Black America. Hear me The poorest of Black America and the poorest of White America. Hear me America in general. You turned your back on the ways of Almighty God in exchange for grafts of liberalism. Now that liberalism has gone extreme, you're finding out it was to separate you from your ONLY true caretaker, Jesus Christ. You have stopped singing Negro Spirituals and Gospel Choruses and become woke. But woke means falling asleep on Jesus name. You cannot claim Jesus Christ and be woke at the same time. Unless you are awake in the Holy Spirit. Hear me: it was to make you leave your God one side and go the other side! Guess who told Nimrod and those wicked folks of old to build the Tower of Babel so they could climb up to heaven and fight God until they kill him and take over the world? You guessed right. Satan. This was wokeness in the days of Noah time. Nimrod and them wanted to reach Heaven and become God, since the people had become woke and earth was too small for them. God was their next target! Oh why do the heathens rage and the people imagine  a vain thing!** Why? Oh! Why oh why do the heathens rage!

Extreme liberalism knows its mandate is to create a Godless society and flush out the name Jesus Christ completely. And ALL Black people ever have is their God who fights for them when they sing his name. So if you turn them away from their God ... finish my sentence, please (you know what I'm saying). If you turn them from their God you weaken them and leave them defenseless and you can lead them like a pack of herd. Because they are the most gullible of God's creation. And they are the stupid poor. And they are people who do not think. And they are destined to be second class.  Really!!! Yes, this is how extreme liberalism thinks of poor people. ALL poor people, regardless of race, including the slaves and those with slavery mindset. Black slavery and white slavery mentality. Nimrod and them think you are stupid enough to leave your God. The question is Are You? Nimrod were Satan, again, using human agents to do his evil deeds upon the earth. Nimrod and them were the power of darkness. Nimrod and 'em never learn. Satan in overdrive. The end of time is near and the devil is losing ground. Well hear me Satan, you've got another thing coming! No one messes with Jesus Christ children. God will come down like he came to see Nimrod's Tower of Babel. In fact, God has already come. Keep watching the clouds! Don't you see the shaking in the heavens? Jesus is getting on a white horse with a machete in one hand and about to walk down here and straighten things up! No power on earth or in the heavens or under the earth can stop The KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. You heard me right. Jesus Christ is coming down to straighten things up for his children. We have help! That's what I said. What do you say, Nimrod and 'em? You want to dare Yahweh? Go ahead, dare YAHWEH.

Satan can huff and puff and blow the earth in but all for nothing! Last I checked, the earth is the Lord's, the fullness thereof, the world and they that dwell therein.*** ALLELUIA.
Christians and all who desire to know God the Heavenly Father. Go find a church house and gather together inside the sanctuary for Worship. Get out of your pajamas thinking you are in church at home. All hell is breaking loose and you're sitting down waiting for hell to release you from hell. That is impossible. Hell does not pardon its captives. You must release yourself by the power of Jesus name through the Holy Spirit and faith in Almighty God. Everywhere else can hold people, except church! I heard Church must remain off limits to the people because gathering in church is toxic. For whom, may I ask? I heard you can worship God anywhere. Maybe. Maybe not. Who goes to church, for three years, in their pajamas, while at the same time eating, chatting, texting, doing laundry, staying in bed... Church? In my African voice, tofeeyahqua!!! ... God forbid. Almighty God will never contradict Jesus Christ. We must be able to assemble together for fellowship. We believers in Jesus Christ must enter the sanctuary and worship and praise and pray and give thanks and offer thanksgiving to The LORD STRONG AND MIGHTY. Yahweh has told his children that He have loved with an everlasting love.****  Hallelujah! That's all we all have going for us. GOD. Almighty God. Nimrod and 'em cannot destroy God's tower that's in us when Jesus Christ linked us to the Father, forever and ever, through Salvation by the shed Blood of Christ. 
My friend hear me. Only JEHOVAH GOD can save the world and you included. Anytime you are encouraged to turn your back on the things of Almighty God--Jesus Christ and Prayer--you are being set up. This particular set up permits the enemy to cage you. And if you die caged in and having lost your faith you'll end up with Nimrod and 'em. Satan. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.***** You had better get up and go to church and make a loud, joyful noise unto the Lord! Stand firm and see the Salvation of the Lord...******
