Are You A Judas Goat?

I thought about it a long time and I have come to the conclusion that betrayal is about the worse thing you can do to a person. Judas Iscariot betrayed Christ. The world shares a low opinion of him , even non-believers. Judas did what had to be done.
His act of treachery had been foretold. It was in "The Book". Christ had to suffer and die on the cross, He was our blood sacrifice. Man had become so vile and evil that GOD had to send His son to save us. Without Jesus no one would have a chance on this evil planet.

I taught for thirty years and I was always surprised by the number of children that had never heard of a Judas goat. Every year I had to explain the derivation of the term. In order to lead sheep to slaughter herders positioned a goat with a bell around his neck to lead the stupid sheep to their deaths.

Can you imagine lining up to die? Watching the sheep in front of you butchered while you waited your turn. Can you imagine being so dumb? Knowing your senseless death is moments away?

We are all like those dumb blind sheep. We don't know and we don't want to know. Some of us are so slow that we will never catch on. Unlike sheep most of us are dumb blind followers because we want to be. We don't want to hear instruction. We want to do what we want to do just because we can. We don't want to listen to the voice of wisdom because we are more concerned with being right. Some of us will declare that we are right knowing full well that we are wrong. How selfish. There are some people that will lead their whole families astray. They missed the opportunity boat and squandered their dreams so now you must suffer.

You were promiscuous, having random unprotected sex as a pre-teen! No mannered, back talking, lying and scheming. Proud to be unstoppable. Laughing at your parents when you heard them crying in the night. Manipulative and violent you were a force to be reckoned with. It worked. You bludgeoned and stabbed enough people to be left to your own devices. As a matter of fact you were such a good con that you conned yourself.

You are what you ARE. Plain and simple. I think Snoop Dog said it best; "You can't make a ho into a housewife." To be honest I never thought "ho-ing" was you problem. Lying and denying is your problem. Betrayal is your problem. Trying to lead others into captivity is your problem. Yes, sorcery is your problem.

"Know ye the TRUTH and the TRUTH shall set you free!"

"I can't lose for the stuff I use, You can't win for the fix you're in." That is one of your ditties. You have no idea of the powerful truth in that statement.

GOD gave us a Book and he told us to study it. He told us to engrave it upon our hearts. Yes you are a bully and you have a venomous foul tongue. You prop your evil up with some worthless voodoo, hoodoo, homemade black magic.

Where did it get you? You are just as broke as I am. We are both old. So what? Please do not tell me that you have lived this secret, closeted disgusting life for nothing? Did you enjoy it? Was it worth it?

How dumb are we? There is only one race, the human race. GOD is our only Father and the cattle on a thousand hills is His.

Why can't we share? Why can't we love one another as Jesus told us? Why do these wolves in sheep's clothing creep in among us? When we identify, see and know them for what they are we slink away in silence, content in self preservation. We know that Uncle Joe or Grandma Mary have "strange" proclivities, yet we remain silent fearing being left out of some old reprobate's will.

GOD told me to be bold. I must obey His WORD. GOD has been too good to me. Sending my brother to protect me from your lust in Ft. Gordon, Georgia. Sending *Geno to marry you because GOD knew the plan you two had for me. Sending Rev. Cleo McCoy and many others to nurture and protect me at A&T after you dropped me off with $1.35 and a ;"Bye Baby!". Sending me a four sided brick home on a half acre lot that I won and you "rooted" me out of. Don't lie, I saw the black tar oozing out of the walls. Yea it is in my book. It scares me to talk about it. GOD saved my baby from certain death when she was born with the umbilical cord around her neck. You tricked me into driving a car with no brakes and God stepped in and landed my car on the median as the eighteen-wheeler whizzed by me. On and on, I do go on and on in my book.

GOD told you to keep your evil stanking hands off me! Your mother warned you. You are hard headed and you think that you can't be stopped. I am here to tell you that you can be stopped. You will be stopped, "You got to move, when the LORD gets ready you got to move."

Hold my mule children! I am shouting all over this room. Thank you Jesus! Praise the LORD! Have mercy! Come Jesus! Come LORD. Thank you! Thank you for your wisdom, thank you for your Glory.

Dear LORD I pray a special anointing over the lives of the readers of this blog. Dear LORD give them strength, give them honor, give them glory, give them the meditation of their hearts. Give them a heart and spirit to know you. Bless each and everyone they know and touch. If any are blind open their eyes LORD. If any are deaf open their ears LORD.

Dear LORD I thank you for plucking me out of the muck and the mire. There are many more that want to follow you dear LORD. Lift them up! Lift them up Jesus. Help them to come up a little higher.

Dear readers thank you for letting me share my pain with you. If you have a demon in your life and you know it, you have an obligation to call them out.

Be a Blessing and be blessed. "Keep yourself up much as you can." Remember, "Apart from Christ you are nothing."

Much Love, Peace and Happiness,
Rachel
