Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Meditating Upon The Names and Attributes of God



The Still, Small Voice

(Old Testament)

1 Kings 19

11 The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.”

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. 12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. 13 When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.

Then a voice said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Abba Father,
We Come before You in Prayer
We Know That You Are Omnipotent,
And Could Choose to Speak to us as an Earthquake
We Know That You Are Omnipresent,
And Could Speak to Us as a Mighty Wind.
We Know That You Are Omniscient,
And Could Speak to Us As a Raging Fire.
But Many Times,
You Speak to Us As A Small Still Voice,
A Gentle Whisper,We Must Actually LISTEN.

May the Leaders of Our Own Beloved USA
Receive Wisdom from You
to do the Right Thing.

We Pray For The Swift and Sure Coming of Messiah,
Blessed Be He,
To Establish His Kingdom,
and Make All Things Right.

Blessings To All Who Visit This Garden of Prayer.



Hallelujah and Amen

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

In an earlier Thread, we discussed the Character of Architect Howard Roark in the book "The Fountainhead", by Ayn Rand. Roark was not a particularly likable character, but, infinitely worse was his main antagonist, a newspaper man named Ellsworth Toohey. Toohey is an unabashed Socialist, who uses his newspaper column to manipulate public opinion. Using his florid and persuasive style, Toohey has the illusion that he can make or break any individual artist or politician, just by writing about him. He is the epitome of what we now call "Fake News", and Ayn Rand was quite prescient in predicting the fate of what passes for "Journalism" these days.

The extreme hubris and conceit of Ellsworth Toohey is reflected in the name of his daily column. It is "One Small Voice". The False Humility, Fake, Self-Effacing "Aw Shucks" title is a Rip-Off of the REAL "Small, Still Voice" that is the Inner Voice of the Creator, Who is Mighty enough to create Galaxies with His Word, and yet, Tender enough to speak to your heart. Some Philosophers call this "Small, Still Voice" to be the "Conscience", but from Whom come the Moral Absolutes that give this "conscience" its power?

Ayn Rand was a Jewish Woman raised in Stalin's Soviet Union, and an atheist. Yet, unconscious Biblical references seem to pop up in her books a lot. And even she seemed to realize that her Toohey character would be even more reprehensible, more arrogant, and more vile, if he presented his propaganda as the "One Small Voice" of God Himself.

May we all be attentive to the "Small, Still Voice" of the Creator of the Universe!

When there are no Moral Absolutes there can be no conscience.

That is why the left wants to destroy all forms of religion and morality, so they can do as they please with no conscience to bother them....................

Amen!

And the character of Ellsworth Toohey was so vain he thought that HE was the people’s conscience. What hubris!

[Ezekiel]

May we all be attentive to the "Small, Still Voice" of the Creator of the Universe!

This article is short but I have only included the last couple of paragraphs. It's worth reading in its entirety.

How can we take the profound soul experiences of Yom Kippur into an ordinary weekday?

To answer this question we must recall the teaching of Kabbala and Chassidus that there were/are five unique personalities who represent the five soul-modalities. King David represented all the souls on the level of nefesh. Elijah represented ruach, Moses neshamah, Adam chaya while Moshiach will embodies the level of yechidah.

When we connect our lives to Moshiach and focus our attention on what we can do to bring Moshiach and the Final Redemption in our days, we can then experience the level of yechidah. The “mere” desire to be there places us there in consonance with what the Baal Shem Tov taught: “A person is where his will is.” If we truly want to be with Moshiach—and express that desire sincerely by attempting to live our lives in harmony with the ideals of Moshiach—we are there! When we live a Moshiach life we ignite the internal spark of Moshiach within us—our yechidah—and we get a taste of the profound joy of Sukkos that is a portent of the perennial joy we will experience in the Messianic Age.

Atlas Shrugged and Fountain Head were some of my favorite books. I read them during my working days in a large company. And I saw those people in my life.

And all God’s people be attuned to the “still small voice” of our Lord.
