JUBILEE: THE DIVINE RESET!

Yes it is 4:18 AM. Up in my favorite chair. Thanking God for keeping my family from sickness, disease, poverty and harm. We are living in some uncertain times of corruption and malice. But we are covered in blood of our Savior. For here in this time is where we are tested. Here, in this time, we are to listen with open ears of faith to the voice of God who is speaking to His people. Recieve what your Father God is speaking into your hearts, and minds, in the year of Jubilee.

A time of jubilee, where all humanity is reconciled with one another. Biblically, it is a year of liberation, restoration, and celebration; where justice reigns, the captives are set free, and all can enjoy the work of their hands.

In this year of 2020 which is technically a year of Jubilee. A pandemic, COVID-19, bellows upon the earth. Also a time where irreconcilable differences of 300 years of oppression, hurt and inequality ruptured like volcano of pitted angry. Reaching out of the depths of ancestral voices to be heard.

So, What is Jubilee? The Bible says:

"No longer will they build houses and others live in them, or plant and others eat. For as the days of a tree, so will be the days of my people; my chosen ones will long enjoy the works of their hands.” Isaiah 65: 20-22

During the time of Jubilee. Everyone who owns property was to return it to the original owner. Not only was land returned, but debts were forgiven and slaves were freed.

As in the time of Israel, today intelligent, capable people are too often unable to enjoy the fruit of their labor. God created us to work and purposefully engage the world, yet systematic obstacles such as inequality rob people of the dignity and respect they—and their labor—deserve.These injustices are not what God intended for humanity. The Year of Jubilee was set in place to counteract the injustice that results from human sin, ensuring that all are free to flourish. In our world today, whether it is a broken justice system or a lack of access to affordable credit, it is time to fight the obstacles that stand in the way of all people sharing in jubilee.

Our faith motivates us to do just that: fight obstacles. Every day, let us work to remove barriers by increasing access to the resources and tools people need to flourish. By equipping entrepreneurs to advocate and create job opportunities in OUR communities of high unemployment and poverty, That is how WE join God’s movement to bring jubilee to earth. Let us build this MOVEMENT together and call for a reset.❤⚘🦋
