The study of the different characteristics of animals can help us as human beings to be able to understand the forces of energies or nature which,

governs the natural existence of the earth, and through the study of the animalistic behaviors, we can also learn new ways on how we can be able to tame or restructure those energies so that they may benefit our earthly realm and lives in the earth.

The book of Genesis says that all the energies or souls of the animals in the garden in Eden came from Adam’s ability to speak.

Genesis 2:1 says out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast or animal of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what Adam would call them, and whatever Adam called each living creature that was its name.

James 3:7 For every kind of beast or animal and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind.

Animals Characteristics reflects the human behavior:

When Adam fell into sin, (eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, which he wascommanded not to eat from), his rebellion against God’s commandment also affected all the energiesor instincts which governed the earthly activities,

and through this sin of rebellion against God’s purpose for his life, the energies which governed the animal kingdom fell into lust, violence, eating of each other, rebellion, selfishness etc.

Isaiah 11:6-9 says: The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.

The cow and the bear shall graze; their young ones shall lie down together;

And the lion shall eat straw like the ox. The nursing child shall play by the cobra’s hole, and the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper’s den.

They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, For the earth shall be full of the knowledge or energies of the LORD As the waters cover the sea.

When human beings begin to obey God, and fulfill His will on the earth, then the energies which govern the animal kingdom will also begin to influence the animals in a positive way, (helping the animals to rediscover the good characteristics which they had before the fall of Adam).

A dog which is barking at thief, who is trying to rob its master, is a dog that is trying to respond to the instincts of fear which comes from its master, and through these instincts (energies or signals of fear) the dog tries to protect and guard his master.

Apostle A. Ngabo
