Ventriloquist

"Ventriloquist."

I remember as a child having one of those dummies
but I wasn't a ventriloquist I couldn't speak through him.
But shatan has many dummies that he uses and many
of them are family and friends and he uses them.
We hear their voices but are speaking the words
that shatan are saying.
He is a ventriloquist and those he's using are real
dummies and games with them shatan is playing.
Remember don't take it personal for shatan will
use anyone to get to you.
Shatan knows that you see the faces of Loved ones
and nasty things they'll say and do.
They're just vessels who are being used because
of who you are in the Most High.
Shatan will get them to say anything against you
they will just straight up lie.
We need to put on the whole armor or protection
of Yah so you can stand against his trickery.
Because our ears lie and what is happening before
our eyes with our Loved ones is a lie that we see.
Shatan is a ventriloquist and those close to us are
his dummies who will say anything.
But to those who are still dying to the flesh are those
who are troubled because the hurt he'll bring.
We need to separate the sin from the sinner and know
this is spiritual warfare it's a spiritual fight.
We aren't battling against flesh and blood but those
dark forces who operate at shatan's delight.
I'm telling you to over look them and what they're
saying but pray for them as they assault.
They are vessels as we are in the hands of Yah so don't
take it personal it's really not their fault.
Our steps are directed by the spirit of Yah or shatan
it's a battle so I know you'll understand.
They're unconscious and they're only doing as their
father shatan commands.
Shatan is a spiritual ventriloquist and he speaks through
many daily where a child of Yah is concerned.
This is just another device of his to cause you sorrow
and a lesson through poetry I hope you have learned.
